Springer Accepts House Committee Post In Nonpartisan Inquiry
Washington Jan 4 Representative Springer will lead a thorough nonpartisan investigation of the Department of Justice after accepting a committee assignment. He plans to summon five persons and papers, asserting the truth will prevail and that no friends shield officials. The saga includes prior probes into State Department offices and Venezuela claims. In the Hussar treasure case energy concerns surface as Crcus and Lean file affidavits alleging contractor Thomas lacks vigor, with the Treasury Solicitor considering a statement and possible action by Secretary Folger.
