THE GRAND JURY

particularly on the necessity for their
observing secrecy as to the subject
1t is understood that during the next
week or two, in addition to the cam
raiGn contribution investigation. the

slider the recent brih, ~ charges in the

bride some of his fellow members.
Senator Lodge was with the district
attorney until a little while before II
O'Clock, when he was conducted into the
grand jury room by Mr.. Moran.
Meanwhile the jury had organized
by eleCtinE former State Representative
Andrew O'Tollc of Boston as foreman.
The examination of Senator Lodge
occupied about 40 minutes ana while
the proceedings were secret. the fact
that the senator was in the grand jury
room led a number Of persons to seek
positions at windows in an opposite
wing of the court house from which
the senator could be seen While on the
witness stand and thu movements Of
back and forth in the conduct Of the
case. could be observed.
When Senator Lodge came out he
was asked for certain Of the proceed
ings. Tic said that Of course he could
not diScloS" the natur" OF the qucS-
tions asked by the grand jury nor his
testimony. He could say. however,
that the subject seemed to him to he
quite unimportant" and one upon
which h could give no information.
He said that 1t was his understanding
that the district attorneys purpose
WAS to secure the testimony of the
members of the Republican state COM
mittee concerning certain campaign
funds.
Senator Lodge explained that why h"
was anXious to b. heard today instead
Of tomorrow was because he had been

fore the grand jury, as he stated titat
this was unlawful. When the district
attorney was informed that Mr.. Lodge
had expressed his opinion that the MAJ :
ter was unimportant, Mr.. Moran Said
with emphasis:
We'll, L.. cant discuss this .nhIl!-'
but Ill say that if perjury y UNI"
portant then the subject matter OF TINS
investigation is unimportant.
Furthermore. the district attorney
continued, 81 may say that senator
Lodge is not competent to pass upon
