Senate lobby probes reveal the Government Printing Office and the Post Office aided a tariff debate by distributing antifree sugar literature. Truman Palmer testified that over 1.5 million copies of arguments in favor of beet sugar were printed or circulated under franks, saving about 28 thousand dollars in costs. He cited papers like Sugar at a Glance and Sugar at a Second Glance, allegedly funded by private interests, and questioned edits made by private printers. The hearing examined authority, accuracy, and potential forgery of a Senate secretary's signature on an order.
