history Is replete with instances
where such invitations were de-
clined. It will be shown that
never In the history Of the Sem
ate Or the House has 3 member
been censuyed for expressing his
opinions on the conduct Of q
committee Of, Congress or the IN
dividual members thereof land
congressional history Is replete
with instances where members
have been critical Of congress
sional committees and have cas-
tigated the individual members
thereof.
Under the rulings OF the chair.
it was not permissible to intro
duce evidence Of the conduct Of
other members, and so ali Of this
evidence was excluded. It can

Takes Up Zwicker Case.
With respect to the charges
revolving about the testimony Of
General Zwicker, each member
I.of the Senate will be urged to
read carefully the testimony Of
February. 10, 1854, and to read
carefully the testimony Of Sep
tember 13, 1854, so that each
may determine for himself
whether or not General Zwicker
was an evasive and recalcitrant
witness. The issue will be raised
as to whether or not vigorous.

necessitated by witness evasive
answers. is a basis for the CEN
sure Of the interrogation. Inriu-
merable precedents for vigorous,
hard hitting cross-examinations
can be found in the history Of the
House and the Senate. In many
of these instances the members
went much further than did
Senator Mccarthy on the occa-
sion in question. In no instance
was cens,ire ever considered OF
imposed upon such members. BY
| virtue Of the ruling Of the chair
none Of these historical prece.
dents could be presented ir
evidence before the Watkins
Committee. The committee fel,
that what other Senators may
have done in the past and what
action the Senate may or may
not have taken. with reference
thereto was irrelevant to the pro-
ceedings in question. These mat.
ters, however, can be and will bt
developed fully in the debate or
the floor Of the Senate beginning
November 8. 1854.
For these reasons. the propri'
eties of the situation would seen
to indicate that the final judges
of this matter, the individual
members of the Senate. shoult
avoid prediction and predis'
position before full argument il
heard.
