| Description | Cartoon shows Senators Carl Hatch and Gerald Nye dropping rolled up bills into the "Senate Legislative Hopper." One bill is labeled, "Hatch Bill to Restrain Activities of Government Employes [sic] after Leaving Federal Service"; the other, "Nye Bill to Withhold Judgeships from Congressmen for Two Years after Terms Are Up." In the background, various people associated with government labeled "Special Pleader," "Inside Man," "Lobbyist," and "Lame Duck" run for cover. As the cartoon indicates, the problem of government officials profiting by their service is not a new one. |
