other high officials. He will also be
asked what he knows of the reported
million dollar sIush fund and stock
speculation of Government officials.
2. Ask Leonard Wood, Jr., and Jake
Hamon, Jr.. what they know about a
reported attempt to barter for the
presidency at the last Republican con
vention with the post Of Secretary of
the Interior as the stake price.
Means to Be Called
g. Castor B. Means, former justice
department agent, who is reported to
have made an early investigation into
the scandal long before 1t was I'M
earthed by the committee, will be
called to the stand. He viii also be
asked concerning a trip 10 Florida
he is supposed to have made to &C
quaint Mclean with some of his In
formation
The committee recessed over today
