New Style Lobby Emerges In Senate Inquiry
The Senate investigative committee decided to broaden its probe into organized efforts influencing legislation. It will subpoena additional figures tied to sugar, wool and tariff debates, then extend to petitions, labor groups, farmers, liquor interests, and other organizations using publicity and letter campaigns to sway senators. The scope could push beyond ten days as witnesses are called and the inquiry moves to Monday with sugar campaign figures.
