BY the ASSOCIATED PRESS.
Two Republican members of the

Committee urged today that Senator
Truman be retained as chairman.
This is despite his announced inten-
ton to resign as result of his
as the Democratic vice
candidate.
Senators Ferguson, Republican, of

Senator Truman,s entry into the
presidential election campaign would
not necessarily disturb the nom
partisan program of the committee.
The same view was expressed by a
Democratic member, Senator Kilgore
of West Virginia. Senator Kilgore
said he had sent Senator Truman
a message urging him to reconsider
his plan to resign. The committee
is to meet Thursday, and the West
said he believed the COM
mittee would refuse to accept Sem

offers it. He added that he believed
Senator Truman would continue If

he had called upon Robert r. Cogs-
well, District rent control admins

ton. Mr.. Randolph said, would be
determined by what information is

sion, the date for which has not yet
been set. Depending on the status
Of congressional business. 1t may be

Mr.. Cogswell said today he be-
lieved 1t was generally understood
that the District Rent Administra-

for formal investigation Of rents In
business properties. While numer-
Gus telephone complaints or in
quiries have been received by his

not filed formal complaints. Gen.
orally, he said, they have been ad-
vised to forward their complaints

already has some general informa-
ton in hand and would be ready
to testify, at the call of Mr.. RAN
dolph, to the extent of his knowl-
edge.
