Paul A. Porter today de-
Tended efforts by his client, A.
Frank Katzentine. to get help
from Senators on q television
case by producing a letter from
Representative Wolverton to
the Federal Communications
Commission on another matter.
Mr.. Wolverton, a New Jersey
Republican, has criticized Col.
Katzentine for seeking help
from several Democratic Sena-
tors in his unsuccessful applica-
ton for TV channel 10 in
Miami.
Mr.. Porter, Col. Katzentine's
lawyer, appeared before the
House Legislative Oversight
Subcommittee today and read
q 1858 letter from Mr.. Wolver-
ton to the FEC Chairman on a
TV case pending in New Jersey
The witness said he dug up
the letter to show that contacts
by congressman with the FEC
"are not uncommon practice
Letter Not Improper
He said Mr.. Wolverton's let
ter was not improper, and
added: II insist equally that
my client is not subject to crit
icism" for seeking similar aid
Mr.. Wolverton appeared to
resent Mr.. Porter's introduc-
ton Of his letters and no one
else's. He rejected Mr.. Porter'S
explanation that his choice was
dictated by the fact that your
stature is such that nobody
could challenge the propriety''
Of the letter.
Mr.. Porter was unenthusias-
tic about Mr.. Wolverton's bill
to impose a code of ethics on
the FEC and other regulatory
agencies. He suggested a bet
Ger way to insulate commissions
from outside pressures would
be enactment of improved reg
ulatory procedures.
The lawyer testified that he
had no personal knowledge that
Commissioner Richard A. Mack
was pledge to vote for Col
Katzentine's opponent in the
TV case, National Airlines. But
he indicated he believed the re-
ports.
Sought Release From Pledge
In view Of rumors that Mr.
Mack was pledge, Mr.. Porter
said he did not frobid Col. Kat
zentine to contact the commits
sioner. But he emphasized that
he warned his client only To
seek to Mr.. Mack's release from
any pledge and not discuss the
merits Of his case.

Porter Defends Efforts
Of Kotzentine at Probe

He said he did not take any
formal action to disqualify
Commissioner Mack because Il
was not satisfied with the quail
ity Of proof"
If he had known about Mr.,
Mack's financial dealings with
Thurman A. Whiteside, q
spokesman for National Air
lines, Mr.. Porter said he prob
ably would have taken action.
Mr.. Porter denied that he
suggested contracting Vice Pres
ident Nixon in Col Katzentine's
behalf, as one of the colonel's
friends tried to do.
What's Wrong With FEC
Much Of the testimony in
volved Mr.. Porter's discussion
of what's wrong with the FEC
and what the subcommittee
could do about it.
Earlier, Chairman Harris
Democrat of Arkansas, sug-
geSted that Republicans on his
subcommittee may drag out
current hearings so long ar
investigation of other areas
would be blocked.
Mr.. Wolverton demanded
that the probe reach back be-
fore 1858 to look for wrong
doing under Democratic ad-
ministrations.
Additional witnesses in the
Channel 10 case may be called
If some members of the
subcommittee have their way
Chairman Harris, indicating he
will resist such a move, planned
to Ak a cutoff date for Chan
mel 10 hearings at an executive
meeting this afternoon.
Chatting with reporters. Mr.
Harris said he would not charge
his colleague with deliberately
stretching out the Channel 10
investigation. But then he in
simulated exactly that, asking:
us their purpose in pro-
longing this inquiry to keep us
out of some other investiga-
tions?"
He wondered aloud II men,
bers Of the subcommittee would
risk the publicity of Kidding
along"
Queries Politically Favored
While conceding that ques-
tons by both Republicans and
Democrats have had a "politi-
cal flavor" Mr.. Harris said It's
the Republicans who are pro-
posing to call more witnesses
There is not a Democrat but
what is ready to conclude
Channel 10 hearings, he added
Later he toned down his
remarks q bit by saying he
was not charging anyone with
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1958-03-21

"dilatory tactics" But he said
the subcommittee might be
charged with q Showdown"
If Channel 10 hearings plodded
on much longer.
I'VE have got to have full
speed ahead. instead of putting
the brakes on" he declared.
Mr.. Wolverton, blaming the
slow pace on lack of a counsel
to handle interrogation of wit
neSSes, commented that he was
equally eager to proceed as
rapidly as possible.
Suggests Staff Interviews
But he suggested that the
subcommittee may want to
question 10 or IL persons after
hearing the commissioners. In
some cases, he said, interviews
by staff investigators may suf-
flee without calling witnesses
to testify.
The New Jersey Republican
urged in an interview that the
subcommittee look into how the
FEC operated before the COP
took Office in 1858. He sug-
gested that investigation might
disclose improper pressures
comparable to maneuvers dur
ing the Eisenhower administra-
ton.
Mr.. Harris acknowledged
that Interrogation of most wit
nesses heard to date was neces-
sary to "close some loopholes."
But he declared that zone way
or another" the subcommittee
must finish hearings by Easter
on Channel 10 and allegations
Of personal misconduct against
some members Of the FEC.
Then, he said. the panel should
proceed to investigating other
phases Of the FEC and other
regulatory agencies.
Cites Deep Problem
Robert w. Lishman, the sub
committees new chief counsel,
is devising short cuts" to
speed the hearings, Mr.. Harris
said.
Renewing his suggestion that
the subcommittee should write
an interim report after con-
Guiding the current phase Of
hearings, Mr.. Harris said the
whole problem is much deeper
than the average person has
caught on to-"
without celebrating, he
charged that certain view
points would like to destroy
our whole administrative pro-
cedure" by abolishing regula-
tory agencies.
The Senate Commerce Com
mittee expects to consider q
variety Of proposals for legis-
lation. some Of which would
abolish the FEC. One plan
under study would replace the
commission with a single adj
ministrator and q special APP
peals court.
