The real issue is whether condi'
tons of military government ir
Germany should be investigated by
the standing committee of the
Senate responsible for foreign re-
lations or by a special committee
which has no responsibility for for
eign relations. There is no question
of concealing wrongs. For Repub'

ton is whether a committee which
is charged with foreign relations
or one that is not charged with
them, should deal with a most
delicate problem in foreign re-
lations.
The views of the Senate on the
principle involved we're expressed
last spring when the Senate voted
in its version Of the Lafollette-
Monroaey bill to prohibit entirely
all special committees. In the final
act this provision (Sec. 1859 was
deleted at the insistence Of the
House but, nevertheless, this may
be taken as the disinterested
judgement of the Senate. It is that
special committees are undesir-
able, and that if Senator Vaaden-
berg is to be Chairman of the For
eign Relations Committee, then
there should not be another COM
mittee run by Senators Brewster,
Ferguson, Ball and Knowland, IL

The. subsistence of what Senator
Brewster wants to investigate is

correct them. That will only
humiliate the United States in the
