Probe Interests Senate.
Reports of alleged scandals in the
Panama Canal Commissary Depart
ment. aroused no little interest among
Senators today.
The allegations were in the air last
summer and were called to the atten-
ticn of Senator Johnston, then chair
man of the Senate Military Committee,
who has since lied. Senator Johnston
was indignant and wanted to probe the
facts. His death iaterferred
While Senator Johnston knew the
facts. Senator Chamberlain, chairman
Of the committee, said todaG he had
haye never been brought formally be-
fore the committee nor befor the Can
al Committee.
However. there is little question that
one or both these committees will take
the matter up, providing 1t is not thor
oughly prebed by the War Department
and the canal commission. Senator
Chamberlain said 1t was likely to
come UP before his committee.
Senator Bristow, who Is on the Mil
itary Committee and on the Canals
Committee, said he intended to give it
such attention as seemed to be neces-
sary when the currency bill was out
of the way. Senator O'Gorman is chair
man of the Canals Committee, and is
likely to call the attention of his COM
mittee to 1t.
Senators. however, seemed to feel that
there might be no need OF action by
the Senate, and an investigation by
order Of that body providing the mat
ter was given adequate attention by
administrative officihls.
