Immediately and vigorously, La Fol-

declared that Ballinger retired when
confronted with the possibility of
impeachment proceedings at the ap-
preaching extra session of congress.
The editorial says:
"The resignation is the last des-
perate attempt of the administration
to close the pages of history on the
official actions of Ballinger. The ap-
pointment of Walter L. Fisher was
prompted by a desire to win back, if
possible the confidence of the people
in the administration. But no resig-
nation and no presidential assurance
will remove the public necessity for
searching investigation"
