NEW YORK ATTORNEY BARRED FROM CONGRESSIONAL COMMITTEE HEARINGS
Washington, D.C. (JFK+50) On March 30, 1926, Associated Press reports that a joint congressional postal committee "closed its doors forever" today to Richard H. Lee of New York, attorney for the National Council of Business Mail Users.
The New York lawyer had sent out a letter calling for a campaign to lower postal rates and accusing committee chairman George H. Moses* (R-New Hampshire) of being "unfair and dilatory."
*George H. Moses (1869-1944) was born in Lubec, Maine & graduated Dartmouth College in 1890. GHM served in the US Senate 1918-1933.
