When reporter OF The Times Dis

The other members silently acquiesced
in This decision.

morning did il go into executive session?
was then asked.
Yes. our meeting was an executive ses-

senator replied that he did not know

the committee came from.
That onued the interview. the reporter
retired and the committee resumed its
work though the press representative was
invited % have a seat and remain.
a curious complication has thus been
brought about. the separation Of tire
committee into two committees being am
unexpected development. II has long
been known that there We're two diver ent

been freely predicted that the four gem
