statement made by Mr.. Lentz as TO the usJ
OF the words. we should not let grass

charges. The conversation was informal,
Mr. Grosyenor said and he would az soon
have expected that u private conversation

sild his statement TO Mr. l.rnt1 was IN

floor Of the house. Hts dental was base
on his knowledge Of the character Of. the
president. He said he had also said 20
Nit Bentz that a search would show that
there was no scrap Of evidence to sustain
