! Investigations, will be gone into very
fully. But until then the members OF

Senator Reed secuted the suGges-
ton. which has been given some
circulation, that the Senate commit
tee was planning to whltewash the
veterans bureau.
1T does not look as though "a
whitewash was in contempla ton
when the thorough manner the com

considered" said Senator Reed.
Inyestingate MT Once.
He explained that when charge
or complaint is filed with the com
, mittee having to do with alleged
graft, two or more attorneys, Sc
lected from the large number giving
their services to the committee. are
sent to investigate. Their report
goes to Gen. O'Ryan and the COM

1t would be impossible for the
members of the Senate committee and
the committee counsel to make per-
sonal Investigations OF the hundreds
of charges and complaints. which
reach the committee from widely
separated points in the country, Sem
ator Reed pointed out. But under
the plan devised, the committee can
obtain Information from experts. and
where a case seems to warrant fur
ther investigation, can take the mat
ter up later.
The other members of the commit
tee are Senators Oddie of Nevada. and
Walsh of Massachusetts. Both are
expected to be here for the hearings
