TURN PROBE INWARD.
Expenditures Committee Makes It's
First Inquiry in Thirty Years.

Not TO be outdone by other committees
In exposing Federal extravaganza Repre-
sentative Edwards. Of Kentucky. chair
man OF the Committee on Expenditures in
the state Department, yesterday called d
meeting OF his committee to inaugurate a
probe.
It was the second meeting held by the
committee in thirty years.
Mr. Edwards Immediately communicated
with Secretary Knox, informing him Of
the committees action and requesting
that a representative Of the State Depart
ment appear before the body next Tues
day and anwser queries.
This will probably be the first time In
its history that the State Department
has had its affairs probed. As the de-
partment has ranked number one in the
executive division OF the government. it
has been more free from publicity than
any Of its coordinates. It's very name has
been associated with secrecy and little
happens in the bureau that is not conf
Dental
The action Of Representative Edwards
committee will come as a surprise TO the
department. Since the days OF its first
secretary, Thomas Jefferson, it has been
immune from investigation of all charac-
ter. and Congressional resolutions asking
for information were sent back with the
curt phrase Incompatible with the public
service for an answer.
