Senate probes Oklahoma primary campaign expenditures
Oklahoma City May 27 The US Senate urged its special committee to investigate the filing of 48 year old farmer Josh Lee, rival to Senator Josh Lee on the Democratic ticket. Oklahoma’s state election board held hearings on Lee’s protest that the opposing candidacy was frivolous and fraudulent. Sid White, attorney for Josh Lee, defended the inquiry as lawful while urging delay for Lee’s appearance. Farmer Lee, who tills 180 acres near Vinita and has eight children, ran in 1938 for president of the state board of agriculture but finished second. Other Democratic contenders were Orr Busby and William H. Murray.
