Grand Jury Probe
'0f RFC Hinges on
Result Of HEARINGS

Justice Department and Senate
committee officials indicated today
that any grand jury investigation
of the Reconstruction Finance
Corp. would have to await the
outcome of hearings at the Capt.
tol next week.
A demand for such an investi-
cation was made in letter yes
terday to Attorney General Nc
Grath by Representative Curtis.
a new House Republican member
from Missouri.
Mr.. Curtis declared that testi-
mony and comments contained
in a Senate Banking subcommit-
tee report two weeks ago indi-
Gated that half a dozen Federal
statutes may have been. violated.
"a cursory examination of the
report" he wrote, reveals at
least 81 serious possible violations
of these statutes, and there are
several instances of apparent per-
jury, provided, of course, that the
witnesses were testifying under
oath at the time they gave their
testimony"
Glad to Cooperate.
The letter to Mr.. McGrath said
sit is shocking to me that you
have made no statement or made
any indication of taking action
on this matter to date"
Subcommittee sources noted
that Chairman Fulbright has an
nounced that the investigation
today has not disclosed evidence
of criminal violations and that he
has no present plans to refer the
matter to the Justice Department.
He added that he would be glad
to cooperate if the Justice De-
partment wants to investigate.
Representative Sutton. Demo-
crat, of Tennessee and Senator
Schoeppel, Republican, of Kansas
recently suggested that a grand
| jury look into evidence of influ-
ence and favoritism in the RFC,
as reported by the subcommittee.
Alleged Violations Itemized.
The demand by Mr.. Curtis was
the first to itemize specific statu-
tory sections he believes might
have been violated. 1t also was
the first to call for immediate
convening of a special grand jury
for full investigation of these
seemingly multitudinous criminal
acts" and to get to the bottom
of this entire matter"
Justice Department officials
had no formal comment on the
Curtis letter. but they said they
knew of no move in the depart
ment toward a grand jury inves-
tigation at this time.
Senate subcommittee open
hearings are to begin next week.
tentatively on Tuesday. and will
