Senator Aiken said the Senate
committee has received "numer-
GUS" tips which, if they prove true,

So far, the administration has
started civil suits covering about

Phantom Freight Charges.
Senator Aiken said one of the
reports he has received is that
some warehousemen may have
charged the Government for grain
transportation that they did not
provide.
He said the deal might work
like this: A warehouseman might
store grain for the Government
in an elevator in Kansas: he
might have privately stored grain
in another elevator in Texas. The
Government, as an example
might order its Kansas wheat de-
liYered in Texas. But the grain
dealer simply would deliver the
wheat already in his Texas ele-
vator-and charge the Govern
ment transportation all the way
from Kansas.
Senator Aiken said he did not
know to what extent, if any, this
was done, but would make sure
the Agriculture Committee stud
led such possibilities.

commodities in storage to help
keep farm prices up. Secretary
