WASHINGTON, Nov. 13.-Joseph

was charged with being a "welsher"
by Chairman Caraway of the SEN
ate lobby investigating committee
today after Grundy refused to sub
NIT the list of preferred and COM
mon senators" he had promised pre-
viously.
Grundy blushed at Caraway's re-
mark, but declared it would be un-
becoming for him, private citizen,
to make up such list.
The self confessed lobbyist from
Pennsylvania was called to the
stand at the outset of the COM
mittee'S hearing today and reminded
by Chairman Caraway of his prom
Use to furnish a list of the SEN
ators who, Grundy said on a former
appearance, should "talk darn

Had Contrasted States
Grundy had said that senators
from certain western states should
talk small because they "had no
chips" in the game. He contrasted
the states progressiveness and pros
perity with that of Pennsylvania.
The committee asked Grundy ut
the time to name the senators he
thought should be put into that
classification, but Grundy said he
would furnish list later.
When Caraway reminded him OF
the agreement today, Grundy said
he had not understood he was to
give such list Of senators, but
Caraway said he would call for the
official record of the testimony to
prove the agreement. Grundy said
that was not necessary.
Gall right" Caraway said, "I'm
going through the list. Let's begin
with Hef1in of Alabama, dofyou ap-
prove of hin?"
Senator, it would be unbecoming
of me as a private citizen to classify
senators in that way" Grundy said.
when did you decide to welsh?"
Remark Is Taken Out
"I won't say that. On reflection
and further thought it seemed to
me it was the backward states was
to name"
"It was promise, for you to give
the list of senators. Do you welsh
on it?"
"I wouldn't want to use that
term. I made a mistake"
"You became afraid?"
"Not afraid. I thought 1t would
be unbecoming."
That's all then, Mr.. Grundy. I
just wanted to see if you would
turn yellow, and I thought you
would"
"I don't think that's fair"
"All right, Mr.. Grundy."
Grundy left the stand and took
his former seat among the spec
tators. Caraway then told the Of

mark about Grundy being yellow"
"After all, I kind of like him" )"
