Today, Then Recess
Until After Election
By George Beveridoe

The House Judiciary Subcom-
mittee investigating the Justice
Department. after a brief closed
session today, probably will recess
its inquiry until after the Novem-
ber elections.
AS final move, the probers
sent to the Justice Department
and the Bureau of Internal Reve-
nue. copies of testimony on the
outside legal activities of Howard
L. Doyle, veteran United States
attorney in Springfield. Ill.
The subcommittee did not make
public the subject of today's
closed-door meeting.
The question of further open
hearings. it was understood. will
depend upon matters turned up
by staff investigators. The staff
will continue work this month on
q number of leads.
Inquiry Not Closed.
Subcommittee Chairman Chelf,
Democrat, of Kentucky, said he
expected the groups recess to ex-
tend over the November 4 elec-
tions. But he stressed that the
inquiry lis not in any sense
closed" and that the subcommit-
tee will consider further sessions
later.
The testimony transcripts re-
lating to Mr.. Doyle. which were
sent today to Attorney General
McGranery and Internal Revenue
Commissioner Dunlap, brought
out that the District Attorney:
/. Last week. after he learned
Of the subcommittee probe, filed
an amended tax return on a
$4,000 private legal fee he said
he unaccountably overlooked
when he reported a total gross
income of $16,421 in 1945.
2. Kept no permanent records
OF the private legal business which
brought him $86,527 during the
years 1945 through 1850. In this
same period, his Federal salary
totaled $48,467.
Round Numbers in Report.
Representative Keating of New
York, ranking Republican SUBJ
committee member, said he had no
comment on Mr.. Doyle's testimony
since Mr.. Doyle had agreed that
it should be sent to the law en-
forcernent and tax agencies for
study.
Subcommittee Counsel Robert A.
Collier brought out that Mr.. Doyle
reported his income from private
legal fees in round figures on tax
returns for the years 1945 through
1948. Later. Mr.. Collier said, the
District Attorney reported such
fees in odd dollars and cents.
Mr.. Doyle contended he never
broke Justice Department rules
about outside business activities,
and did not handle cases in which
the Government had an interest.
But neither, he said, did he keep
permanent records of his income.
Commenting specifically on his
inability to remember his 1945 in
come, Mr.. Doyle said:
This is the most negligent per-
formance a man can make, so far
as keeping account of money is
concerned.

years ago in Ohio and the Wis

Gus cities. All were aimed at help
ing Senator Jenner defeat Demo-

I was reelected in Ohio by 439,-

day. Senator Taft predicted the
Republicans will win a Senate ma
