From that he led into charges of
"premeditated, deliberately figured
out, deliberately marked out robbery
of the American people through Unit
ed States gamblers"
He said he new who was RESPONSE
BILE for the leak and reiterated he was
convinced the committee did not wan
an investigation. He reviewed MS re-
cent trip to Washington.

"to aid in an honest investigation only

The chairman stopped Lawson there
and then followed row between
Lawson and Representative Clipper
field which was unintelligible to the
official stenographer.
Chairman Henry raped for order
and Lawson roared:
ct don't propose to be bulldozed and
I will not be intimidated."
Finally. after more wrangling, by
an unanimous vote Of the committee,
all of Lawson's heated speech was
struck from the record. The chair
man then arose to question him.
"You stated that there was a leak.
Will you give the committee the name
Of the person who carried the leak to
Wall street from Washington %
Lawson replied that the only way he
could give the identity Of the bearer
Of the leak" would be to violate a.
confidence and he could not do that.
But you know him?' demanded
Chairman Henry.
'sNot in a legal sense"
do you know of any in any sense"
Il know there was a leak" Lawson
returned, land knowing there was a
leak, must have some information.
Asked if he refused to answer the
question, Lawson avoided direct an
swer.
do you know any persons who
profited on the day Of the leak?"
II probably do" Lawson said. IT
probably profited myself"
He declined to say how much. By
process Of elimination, Chairman Hen
ryI drew from the witness that he
knew of no one at the White House
connected with the leak. Asked if he
knew Of any leak in the secretary of
states office, Mr.. Lawson said:
Il have no information regarding
anyone in the state department which
I would give in public. I would give
it to the chairman. But you don't
need any more information than you
have to warrant an investigation.
II cannot give the committee
names as having been principles to
the transactions said Lawson.
Names were given me by people I
know to be responsible"
Twill you give them to me?" asked
the chairman. mo, I will not give
them at all unless it is absolutely
necessary"
1.-THE chair requests you now to
give the Names continued Mr..
Henry. 1T started out with the de
TERMINATION and I say again that 1
will not blunder up your record with
names to furnish headlines for the
newspa pers."
''Then you fatty decline?" yes,
decline to furnish names given to
me by others-not now"
At this point the committee took a
recess until o'clock.
