SENATE TO PROBE
POSTAL LEASES
Special Investigator to Ask |
Post Office Officials
for Information.
Btepe to collect data concerning the
Poet Office Department’s Independent j
investigation of post office leases that
cost the Government, 817,000.000 last.
year have been taken by the Senate
committee now inquiring into condi
tions surrounding the annual rent bill.
John Holland, special Investigator for
the committee, said he would make a
formal request for Information from
Post Office officials.
Representative Maas. Republican,
Minnesota, said after a conference with
Holland that “Irrespective of Informa
tion developed bv independent investi
gations, a sweeping congressional in
quiry to fix responsibility for condi
tions existing in the past must and
will be made.”
Hoover Requested Study.
The department’s inquiry was made
at the request of President Hoover, and |
a report concerning it is to be trans- 1
mitted to him this week. The lease
| situation called forth charges of cor
ruption and fraud during the Senate’s
consideration of the Post Office ap
propriation last Spring.
Chairman Blaine of the Senate’s In
vestigating Committee, is expected to |
consult other members on the possi- I
bllity of beginning public hearings i
within the next two weeks at St. Paul,
| Minn.

on post office substations during the
past 10 years. He declined to discuss
details or Information gathered for the
Senate inquiry however.
Professional* Hold Leases.
Chairman Blaine said shortly after
the investigation began that two pro
fessional bidders with offices in St. Paul
and Indianapolis held the majority of
1 the leases. It was estimated that the
companies In which they controlled
stock held leases whose rentals amount
ed to more than 81.000.000 a year.
Mass said he would eonftr with
Blaine before the hearing begins In
St. Paul. It is expected that local and
Federal postal officials will be among
i the first called to testify.
Many of the leases now held on post,
j office substations and garages are of
‘ land standing. Many are long-term
non-cancellable leases.
