BEFORE INVESTIGATIONS
COMMITTEE

Washington, May 1S.-Harry Vein

er Cleveland Bergdoll in court martial
proceedings, was ordered before the
bar of the house of representatives to-
day for contempt, after refusing to tes-

committee regarding fees paid him by
Bergdol's mother.
Welnberger challenged the right Of
the committee to investigate the escape
OF Ber,gdoll on the ground that he
never had been indicted into the
army. Chairman Peters brushed aside
the contention, declaring 1t was entire
ly aside from the question at issue.
Asked how much money had been
paid by Mrs. Bergdoll, Weinberger re-
fused 10 answer, contending it was not
relative and was privileged matter.
When the witness refused to produce
his books Representative johnson.
Democrat of Kentucky, moved he be
held in contempt. There was no obiec-
ton.
After Weinberger's refusal to answer
John II. Sherburne, counsel for the
committee, asked what was done with
the buried gold. Bergdoll, Weinberger
said, told him of the buried treasure,
but did not give its location. The wit
ness refused TO turn over letters writ.
ten to him by the late D. Clarence Glib
honey. also one of Bergdolls lawyers.
and the committee again adopted a mo-
ton to call him before the house.
Mr.. Sherburne made formal demand
Tor all documents held by the witness
bearing on the case.
IF the house tells me to answer. I'll
take its decision" said Weinberger.
The house will do more than rule.
Representative johnson answered
-Four separate charges OF contempt
were lodged against Weinberger before
Mr.. Sherburne announced that there
was no possibility of going further IN.

piled, but ! don't see where that has
anything to do with this inquiry"
You have refused to answer certain
questions" Chairman Peters told Weln-
berger, "and nothing remains but to
have the house decide.
ITS well for you to know that the
house can imprison YOU" said Mr..
Johnson.
The question of Imprisonment does
not enter into my decision in this mat
ter" replied Weinberger.
Weinberger was not placed under ar
rest but was ordered to appear before
the committee later in the day and not
to leave the city without its permission.
