 Presented on the eve of a repub- lican caucus. called to consider a legislative program, including a re- publican resolution for investigation of charges of alleged laxity in pros cautions by the department of jus tlce, the Attorney Generals letter provoked a partisan row in which Representative Garrett, the demo- cratic leader, broadly intimated that it was intended to smother the pro- posed nvestigation.
 Representative Mondell. the repub- lican leader, to whom MT. Daugh- erty's letter was sent by the Presi- dent. did not indicate in reply to a question on the floor as to whether 1t meant the resolution already given privileged status by the rules com mittee never would be heard from again.

 It Is terrible thing, he said, to charge a citizen with robbing his own government. and for that reason ne had insisted upon a painstaking In- vestigation of all cases involving charges of criminality It was re- gretable too, he declared, that pub lie attention should have been so strongly focused on these cases on the eve of their prosecution"
