Lawyer Heard in Mail Probe in WashingtonDC
In Washington today William Sacks former Republican national committee member testified before the Senate investigators that he twice spoke with former Postmaster General Brown about an air mail contract for W. B. Robertson. Sacks recalled visiting Brown in his Washington apartment in May 1931 and said Robertson asked him to intervene with Washington officials for a St. Louis route, citing his public activity as reason. Robertson later said Sacks offered to secure an air mail contract for a 5 percent commission based on the first year’s receipts. The committee also heard that Brown and Glover ordered destruction of some official records before leaving office. The February edition of The Light's Free Rental Directory will be in Pig-Bly Wiggly stores Wednesday.
