10 OIL, Testify III in Probe Of
Missing Grain Stocks

| The Senate Agriculture Com
mittee today called Agriculture
Secretary Brannan and Controller
General Lindsay C. Warren to
testify tomorrow on shortages in
Federally controlled grain stocks.
Mr.. Warren has reported that
2 million bushels of grain have
disappeared. The Agriculture
Committee has decided to investi-
gate, but there is a split on the
committee along party lines on
how the inquiry should go.
I Committee Chairman Ellender
wants the committee to investi-
gate with its regular funds, Sen
ator Aiken, Republican, Of Ver-
mont wants special permission to
use more money than Senator FL
lender feels is now available.
Aiken Wants Open Hearing.
Senator Ellender also wants to-
morrow's committee session closed
to the public, but Senator Aiken
said today he will insist that testi-
mony be given in public.
The Louisiana Democrat de-
scribed the Brannan-Warren tes-
timony as a mere preliminary to
formal hearings that may be held
later. He said he would diligently
search out any wrongdoers, but
at the same time try to protect
individuals from irresponsible &C
cusations. He indicated he felt
that Republicans were playing
politics with the issue.
Some people claim this is q
political issue, /" Senator Aiken
commented later. "but the con-
troller general tells us 2 million
bushels of grain have been stolen.
You can't dismiss that lightly" +"
Missing Grain Sold.
The missing grain had been sold
to the Government or posted as
collateral against Government
loans intended to help keep up
the price Of agricultural goods.
At scattered points in the coun-
1try. Federal investigators have
found that operators of ware
houses where the grain was stored
sometimes have sold the grain and
Ipocketed the oney-perhaps as
an outright theft but more likely
with the intention Of later buying
grain to replace the sold grain.
Even If the grain was replaced,
the practice would have defeated
the Federal Governments objec-
tive pf taking grain on the market
