CONTINUE TESTIMONY
OF NOMINEES FITNESS
Fact That Acting Secretary Folks
Duties End Monday VIII Not
Speed Jnyestigation.
[By Universal Service1

WASHINGTON. March 1.-THE testi-
mony of two more officials of the Mill
itary Intelligence Service was taken
today by the Senate Foreign Relations
Committee when the investigation OF
the fitness OF cambridge Colby to be
Secretary OF state was resumed. The
witnesses were Captain John 3. Trevor,
who was in charge of the military in
telliEence Office in New York during
the war, and Victor Brager, who was
employed in the Office as stenographer
and dictagraph operator.
Members of the committee declined
to disclose the nature of the testimony
nor discuss in any manner the reasons
for calling the military intelligence Of
hcers. Some of the committee mem
bers expressed indignation over the
fact that the investigation. had been
brought to public attention and that
the summoninC of witnesses from the
Military Intelligence Service had be-
come known.
The fact that Under Secretary Folks
ad interim designation as acting Secre-
tary of State must end next Monday
will not influence the committee to
make any speedier progress in acting
on the nomination, it was stated
