Hoover Refuses

To Fec Probers
Tells House Group
President Forbids
Answers on Security
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
j. Edgar Hoover, director of
the Federal Bureau of Investi-
cation, refused today before a
House committee investigating
the Federal Communications
Commission to answer questions
relating to internal security.
He said President Roosevelt had
directed him not to answer such
questions.
Committee Counsel Eugene L.
Carey, questioning Mr.. Hoover
about case involving Alfonso Lom-
hiazi, a broadcaster in Boston, asked,
Did you ever recommend that
Lombiazi be put off the air?"
Mr.. Hoover replied that while he
did not desire to interfere with the
committees work he was forbidden
from discussing questions OF this
type"
Mr.. Carey insisted the committee
should have the presidential di-
reetive
Chairman Lea said Il take it no
one impugns the motives of the wit
ness. The President, however.
could not, by blanket order, exempt
witness from testifying before the
committee"
Mr. Garev said it was not his pur-
pose to ask questions affecting in
ternal or national security, adding
that the case was one of a citizen
"wrongfully and illegally put off the
air" by the FEC, with some blame
put on the FBI. The attorney said
that while Mr.. Lombiazi had been
investigated by the FBI it found no
ground for complaint.
The FBI had no part in the
wrong prepetrated upon this man"
Mr. Carey said
Representative Hart, Democrat. Of
New Jersey. a member of the COM
mlttee, said there was something
bit nebulous" about MIR. Hoover's
saying he was told not to testify.
The committee is entitled to the
particular instructions under which
the witness seeks immunity from
answering questions he asserted.
Mr.. Carey then asked Mr.. Hoover
to Identify copy of a memorandum
which the President issued Septem-
Der 6. 1899, under which the FBI was
directed to take charge of sabotage
and espionage investigations to
avoid confusion and irresponsible
ity." Mr.. Hoover identified the
document.
