Frank N. Sheppard, a representative of the National Bankers Association, is shown testifying before the Senate committee chaired by Idaho Senator William Borah in October 1924. The committee was examining a political fund and related dealings during a period of intense scrutiny of campaign money, part of the wider Teapot Dome investigations. National Photo Company pictures like this one documented Washington events for newspapers of the day. The title comes from unverified data on the negative, and the date is taken from a related negative, so both are best read as likely rather than certain.
