This is the information I'm Administra-

The Senator explained to the Presi-
dent that Mr. Balliuger himself, in his
desire for as complete n probe as pos
sible Of the whole situation, thinks the
results VIII be more satisfactory II the
work is done by both houses rather
than by one. Senator Jones took the

TO such a program.
Senator Nelson, OF Minnesota, chair

Jones, but he explained that, while MS
