Postoffice Scandal and the Heath Machen Cases in Washington
A Washington Post Office scandal arc unfolds around assistant postmaster general Perry Heath and subordinates A W Machen and Robert J Wynne. The piece traces Machen’s rise under free delivery expansion, alleged favors, contractor dealings, and a widening inquiry touching Beavers Tyner Barrett Christiancy and Tyner’s era, with indictments and resignations anticipated as the probe widens to include broader department misuses and wartime Cuban and Porto Rico affairs.
