Military Chiefs To Testify Before Congress Assured
Sen. Richard B. Russell said he is assured top military officials may testify frankly before congressional committees. A formal letter from Defense Secretary McElroy stated officials should present personal judgments when testifying, with no retaliation for candor. Russell plans to invite Gen. Maxwell D. Taylor and Gen. Randolph M. Pate to testify next week on defense reorganization, while others push for changes to require advance notice to Congress. Otto L. Nelson Jr. urged removing the restrictions, arguing the secretary must adjust promptly to threats to national security.
