resented "just another instance
OF the lack Of moral fiber that
seems to permeate our Govern
ment agencies"
In a telephone interview,
Mr.. Moss replied to criticisms
of the subcommittee's decision
to subpoena Mr.. Van Doren. He
said there is a serious ques-
ton" about Mr.. Van Doren in
the hearing record which
should be explored.
He pointed out that Mr.. Van
Doren defeated Herbert Stem
pei, New York history student,
on the December S, 1856, show
by a score of IS to 10. He also
noted that Mr.. Stempel's testi-
mony that he would take
dive" and loses by a score OF
10 to 10 had been corroborated
by other witnesses.
Accepted Practice
Mr.. Moss said the kinescope
revealed that Mr.. Van Dorer
was the one who elected to enc
the contest and an explana-
ton Of that decision by the 49,
year-old quiz winner was in
order.
The Californian also pointed
out that the subcommittee has
received testimony that rigging
of the quiz shows was regarded
among the producers as an &C.
cepted and well-known prac-
tice. and added:
IT can't think anyone whit

were critical Of the testimony
of John E. Doerfer, chairman
of the Federal Communications
Commission, that he doubted
the FEC had authority to move
against rugged quiz shows since
no illegal fraud" was involved.
A Marion IN. " doctor
wrote that he was infatuated"
by Mr.. Doerfer's stand and said
his comments indicated the
commission docs not know a
moral right from wrong" He
added:
when a few pitiful, mis-
guided people can get away
with deceit of this magnitude,
the moral conscience of many
has been dulled by that much.
That is enormous harm"
A Lexington (Ky0 writer said
every decent American should
be shocked and call for action
new regulations and new
FEC members" He added that
for Mr.. Doerfer to bring in the
question of freedom Of speech
was IAN insult to our intelli-
gence. What has freedom OF
speech got to do with fraud and
cheating?"
Want Barry Testimony
The same correspondent
pointed out that Jack Barry
was master of ceremonies or
the Twenty-One show, and
asked "Why hasn't he been
called?" Subcommittee men,
bers said Mr.. Barry. who has
been under subpoena, has not
been questioned because il
