Italian intervention.

From Senator Burke CD OF
Nebraska, member of the Senate

he would insist upon agencies
designated for the investigation
presenting detailed estimates on
how they propose to spend the
money.
BURKE SHARES VIEW
II assume that heads of the

what they intend to investi-
gate" Burke said, adding he
favors the investigation.
While the President, in his mes
sage, recommended the Depart

change Commission and other
agencies participate in the investi-

is to be coordinated were to be
