Senator Watkins said he be-
lieves the amendment to the

added, other changes might also
be necessary.

There will be time now. before
the legislation begins to roll out
Of the standing COMMITTEES.
The committee resolution, If
adopted, would bar a committee

the press, as Senator Mccarthy
did in connection with the hear
ing of Brig. Gen. Ralph w.
Zwicker, unless authorized by
majority vote Of the committee.
