Report on New Mexico election expected to be objective
Senator Potter says the Senate elections subcommittee will issue a nonpartisan, law and facts based report on the 1952 New Mexico senatorial contest. Barrett says about 30 000 votes may be thrown out for lack of secrecy, which could award Patrick J Hurley to Chavez. The full Senate must act, and Senator Hennings disputes fraud claims against Chavez et al.
