Mellon Is Qualified to Hold His Post in Senate Debate
The Senate judiciary committee voted five to report Mellon was not disqualified by stock holdings and refused to call him for an open investigation. Steiner’s report argued the law forbids direct or indirect involvement in trade by a secretary and warned the issue may require impeachment or grand jury action if violations are found. Borah urged stock ownership alone does not disqualify, but any business activity by a stockholder secretary could breach the statute and called for updating the law.
