LOYALTY PROBE
PUT OFF AGAIN
De Woody Granted Time
by Senate Committee to
Prepare Testimony.

Proceedings of the Senate judiciary
subcommittee investigating the pur-
chase of the Washington Times and
German propaganda in this country
were halted yesterday morning by the
request of Charles II. Dew oody, the
first witness called. for further time
to prepare his testimony.
Mr.. DeWoody was the first assist
ant of A. Bruce Bielaski, chief or
the Bureau of Investigation, Depart
ment of Justice, during the latters
term of office. and his testimony is
expected to complete that of his chief'
given earlier in the hearing.
Alfred Becker, former Deputy At
torney General of New York state
also requested that his cross exam
nation by Senator Reed. of Missouri.
be postponed until next week, ana
Mai f. Lowry Humes, counsel for
the subcommittee. granted his re-
quest.
May Demand Documents.
Senator Reed arrived in Washington
Thursday night, prepared to continue
his questioning of Becker today. IL Is
believed that he will insist that ccr-
tain documents referred TO by Becker
in his testimony be produced beto'e
the subcommittee.
Chairman Overman adjourned the
subcommittee until Tuesday. January
:. 1t was announced yesterday that
tie delay in printing the testimony
thus far taken in the behring's was
due 10 the fact that copies of the tes
timony of Mr. Bielaski, Mr.. Becker
and Capt Lester, of the Army lntelli-
gence Service, had not been returned
to the official stenOgrapher. These
three witnesses have asked that they
be permitted TO examine their tesa'
mony before its publication.
1t is improbable that the subcommit-
tee will complete its hearings until
the early part OF February. The sub
committees report must be ready for
submission to Congress before the e>
riration OF the present Congress, on
March 4.

Cites Three Alterations.

Mr. McAdoo made no recommenda-
tion to Congress on the ultimate solu-
tiOn of the railroad problem. He out
lined three alternative propositions
which he thought Congress should
consider:
l. Return of the lines to their former
private owners.
,. Outright government ownership
and operation.
3. Reconstruction Of the railroad map
along logical lines. wiping out the sew
eral hundred COMPANIES and substitut-
ing a comparatively few companies
under strong governmental control.
Under cross-eXamination he ampli-
fed these statements
My own inclination is for private
ownership he said, but under efrec-
tive government control. The States
would have to yield on rate matters to
such control"
