On Records, Ford Says

A matter of records plagued
two men developing explanations
of their private financial transac-

One is former Police Chief Rob-

pear at 10 am. Tuesday to answer

Mr.. Barrett's attorney, Charles
E. Ford, said he had been ham
Ipered by Committee Counsel Ar

Mr.. Ford charged that the Of

man to delay handing out the
complete transcript until Mr.. Bau-
man could consult with the Sen
ators. The remaining part of the
Itranscript-exhibits detailing fig

Ivestigators-was mailed to Mr..
Ford last night.
The committee is expected Tues
day to ask Mr.. Barrett to explain
SIT 400 spent above the money he
said was available to him to spend
during a 33-month period while
he was police chief.
Yesterday Mr.. Ford told Police
Chief Robert v. Murray he has
been unable to obtain certain
financial reports he needs in pre-
pairing an explanation Of In
spector Albert I. Bullock's finan-
cial dealings.
Figures Available Next Week.
In letter to Maj. Murray, Mr.
Ford said he had been advised by
the crime committee that these
records would not be available

posts which the committee says
he made above those reported for
