In his statement given to the press
when he made public the report of
the committee. the governor said he
had been compelled to ask for my
resignation by the gravity of the re-
port submitted by the special COM

report did not contain anything upon
which an action of custer could be
founded. As a matter of fact, the re-
port, in so far as it relates to the Sa-

statement of fact It simply contains
the conclusions of an uhfriendly com
