Harris & Ewing photograph of Senator Alexander Wiley, April 29, 1939, eleven years before the Kefauver Committee. It does not show the hearings.

The Library of Congress gives the caption received with the collection: "Wisconsin Senator. Washington, D.C., April 29. A new informal photograph of Senator Alexander Wiley, Republican of Wisconsin." The caption is the photographer's, not verified by the Library. The date is April 29, 1939.

This photograph predates the Special Committee to Investigate Organized Crime in Interstate Commerce by about eleven years and does not show its hearings. It is filed here only as a portrait of one of the committee's members, who is named as a member on [the Senate Historical Office page](/items/senate-kefauver-committee-history-page/).
