This was; 2 privilege granted for the purpose of enlightening the electorate re- sarding their acts in Congress to defend themselves and also, of course, to help in the nll-importnnt_ job of getting re-elected. This privilege has continued— and rightfully so—up to the pres- ent, even though a similar privilege is denied ‘the men in the army camps, who' appreciate mail more than almost anything else. Last week, however, an FBI truck backed up to an office on Rhode Island Avenue, previously exposed in this column as having Nazi cno- nections, and carted a batch of documents down to the Justice Department. { In that truckload were the franked envelopes of various Sen- ators and Congressmen, including the late Senator Lundeen of Min- nesota; Senator Nye of North Da- kota; Senator Worth Clark of Idaho, now investigating the ies; Representative Day of Il- Representative Sweeney of Ohio; Representative Tinkham of Massachusetts; and ex-Representa- ivetive Thorkelson of Montana. These envelopes contained speeches of the various Congress- men, but the envelopes were un- addressed. In other words, the gentlemen who possessed this cher- ished privilege of free franking, had permitted it to be delegated: to a Nazi-supported organization which could decide where the prop- aganda should be sent, This incident empnasizes a sit- .
