Mae Wood Calls Charges Against Miller and Officials
Acting Secretary Adee acknowledged that charges filed in the State Department involve Miss Mae Wood against J Martin Miller the American consul at Alix la Chapelle and others including former Postmaster General and consul general Robert Wynne and Secretary Loeb. The case traces to Wood’s Omaha suit alleging Miller pilfered letters from a U S Senator intended for publication as Love Letters of a Boss and links to her loss of position in the Post Office Department. The department says only charges by the German government against Miller are under current investigation and will review Wood's charges in due course.
