The beige… cloth boards are in very good condition (slightly bumped spine and corners, discolored spine but with no effect on lettering). 9 x 6, 249 pages, 20 ounces XX [From a 1932 Time magazine review] Too commonplace for comment by most Washington correspondents are the traditional and legalized forms of petty graft practiced by Senators and Representatives at taxpayers' expense. To initiate voters into this Congressional mystery William Pickett Helm, oldtime syndicate writer, has written WASHINGTON SWINDLE SHEET published this week by Albert & Charles Boni of Manhattan. Taking as his text the official audit of the Senate's miscellaneous outlay for fiscal 1931, Mr. Helm shows how Senators pad their pockets.Prime source of profit is mileage, paid at the rate of 400 per mile to & from sessions. The ordinary traveler pays $4.38 to make the round trip in a parlor car between Washington and Baltimore. For the same journey Maryland's Goldsborough draws $16 from the public treasury, pockets $11.62. New York's Wagner collects $96 for a trip which costs ordinary citizens only $23.78. Transportation home & back costs Idaho's Borah $239.56 for which the Senate pays him $1,058.80. Ohio's Fess profits $198.42 for each session; Washington's Jones $1,074.22. Representatives enjoy the same generous allowance for travel which costs the Government a total of $226,000 for each session. Investigations outside Washington are generally arranged as vacation trips. A ten-day wildlife survey by three Senators (Nevada's Pittman, Connecticut's Walcott, Missouri's Hawes) with their salaried assistants cost $1,983,67. Among the itemized expenses were: motorboat hire, $60; mineral water, $31; Minnesota fishing licenses, $22; one spoon hook, $1.25; three sinkers, 15¢; can of minnows, 75¢. It cost the Treasury $4,241 when six Senators (North Dakota's Nye, Nevada's Oddie, Illinois' Glenn, Arizona's Ashurst, South Dakota's Norbeck, Montana's Walsh) spent eight Christmas holidays investigating the Everglades as a national park possibility. Double railroad fare was paid for all so they could have individual Pullman drawing rooms or compartments. Two houseboats were hired for five days at a cost of $1,687.50 (auditors first thought the boats had been bought). Observations from a blimp cost $75. A set of 14 photographs for each Senator added $168 to the bill.Other costly junkets cited by Author Helm: Alaskan Railroad ($4,360, including $143.55 worth of photographer's supplies for Nebraska's Howell); Heflin-Bankhead contest ($90,000); campaign expenses ($128,000).

Add to basketHardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: good. Second Printing. 8vo, 248 pages, cloth; dj chipped at extremities Helm was the Washington correspondent for the Wichita, KS "Eagle". This is his polemic on travel expense allowances for Presidents, Congressmen and Senators. He names names, and has the facts and figure…s. Helm boasted that he was the only Washington correspondent who did not pal around with these elected officials, that he was not friends with any of them, so his attacks are impersonal. " The recital palls. The record for every Senator, in detail, is shown in Appendix A to this volume. Every member of the august Senate without exception found thus far dips into the public purse, year after years, and withdraws his hand with about four times as many dollars sticking to it as are really needed to transport him in comfort from his home to Washington and back. . Every Representative, too. . and the taxpayers pay it. Is it to be wondered, then, that Mr. Taxpayer is universally cartooned as a cock-eyed boob? ".
