THE 8Oth congress may
L have set a record for in
vestigations of various kinds,
for during this past session
more than 120 resolutions were
brought up in both houses calling
for probes ranging from the system
OF operating cafeterias in govern
ment buildings to the security Of
atom bomb secrets.
Already congressional investigat-
ing committees have spent thou
sands of dollars in these probes. For
instance, the special committee in
vestigating national defense has
spent $74,495; the senate sub-com-
mittee on privileges and elections
has spent $4,000, and the senate
special committee to study prob
lens of small business has spent
$29,4l6. Probably $4,000 has been
spent by other lesser sub-commit-
tees.
Many Of these probes are ex-
pected to continue during the
congressional recess.
For instance, a senate committee
to make a survey of the hoof and
mouth disease is authorized to spend
$4,000; banking and currency
committee has $4,000 for a re-
cess investigation of reconstruction
finance corporation; the senate civil
service committee has $4,000 for a
probe of postmaster appointments;
