Senate Lobby Games and a Vienna Born Diplomat
The Senate Lobby Committee probes anti New Deal funding linking wealthy donors to the American Liberty League. It cites DuPonts and associates and notes indirect loans. Democratic sleuths struggle to identify guests due to chauffeurs listed on dinner rolls. Carnelmous Engert, born in Vienna to Dutch parents, labeled a Naturalized American, impresses officials with cables predicting events and military updates from Addis Ababa. His dispatches fill a gap as Mussolini bars diplomatic attachés from the front. The \nWatch man.
