that ne welcomed tie inquiry, and that
he had information regarding tariff lobby

appear personally before the commit
tee or communicate the information in
writing remains to be developed The
committee has notified him that the in
quiry is on and will leave to his judg-
ment the part he is to take.
Senators are to be called alphabetically
