Senator Lodge writes to President Roosevelt about Assistant Postmaster General Robert John Wynne’s political troubles. After speaking with Postmaster General Henry C. Payne, Lodge knows for certain that “Wynne’s one idea was to get on the best terms with the P.M.G.,” and the important figure in the investigation of the scandals is Fourth Assistant Postmaster General Joseph L.
