F|ynt Declares
Bar Bill Story
'Damnab|eLie'
BY the Associated Press

Representative Flynt, Demo-
crat Of Georgia, has denounced
as "damnable lies" published
stories that he and other Con-
gressmen charged personal bar
bills to the Government at
swank Honolulu hotel.
Mr.. Flynt told his fellow
House members yesterday he
never has charged any liquor
or personal expenses to the
Government, and waved a can
celled personel check he said
showed he had paid his own
way at Honolulu's Royal Ha-
waiian Hotel in 1857.
II apologize to no one" he
said, to the applause Of his
colleagues.
Representative Harris, Demo-
crat of Arkansas, said, "The
geneltman has given the House
the true facts"
Mr.. Harris was another Of
the Congressman mentioned in
a copyrighted Knight news
papers story that appeared also
in Life Magazine. The stories
said dozens of expense account
bills had been altered in recent
years.
Mr.. Harris is chairman of the
Commerce Committee. Six

Quoted an investigation of In

Another member of the party,
Representative Friedel, Demo
crat of Maryland, said the pub
lished stories did not mention
that he paid all bar and
personal expenses out of his
own pocket.
Taking the House floor for
the second time during the
day, Mr.. Flynt defended his
expense vouchers as proper
and declared that he has never
billed the Government for
liquor or any other personal
expense.
Mr.. Flynt said he paid for
everything that could be at
tributed to his personal use at
the hotel. He said seven items
adding up to $3.50 were listed
on his bill and that he gave
a personal check for $22.5O
whic hmore than paid for

further interference to bureau
projects"
TV Signals Interfere
Mr.. Walleigh explained that
the bureaus present location
on upper Connecticut avenue,
between Tilden and Albemarle
streets NV, is unsatisfactory
from both standpoints. He
said signals emanating from
WMALfi WRC and WTOP
television towers within a mile
or so interfere with precision
electronic measurements, and
the heavily populated area
makes the site unsuitable for
high-energy physics machines
which emit radiation.
Although the new NBS site
will have its own power houes
for central heating and air
conditioning and its nuclear
reactor, it will take electricity
from the Potomac Electric
Power Co., Mr.. Walleigh said.
PEPCO is expected to deliver
about as much electricity as is
used o nthe average by the
nearby town of Rockville.
The site, roughly 1Ia miles
north-south by l mile east
west. is on the west side of the
Washington National uike CIn-
terstate 70-S or U. E. 240),
about 10 miles north of the
PookS Hill interchange in Be-
thesda and about 5 miles south
Of the Atomic Energy Commits
sion headquarters at German
town. Principal access to the
campus will be via the Gath
ersburg interchange.
Mr.. Walleigh said the bu-
reau's present payroll Of about
$500 employees will be expand
ed to about 5000 after the
move.
No disposition has been made
of the choice present site nor
the splendid landscape plants
around the Manse and other
buildings. 1t is understood that
the bureau hopes to take to
Gaithersburg as many of the
paintings as can be moved.

20 Buildings Planned
When completed, the Gath

buildings including an History
headquarters Office structure.
an auditorium, a library and
seven three-story laboratory
buildings. Expansion to pro-

plans to erect a nuclear reactor

reactor will account for $40 mil
lion of the total $l04 million

am sure that Governor Rookie
feller has done what he thinks
best.
Had he decided to become a
candidate, the Republican Party
in Delaware would have given him
serious consideration, just as
would any other candidate.
Mrs. Buck saw Rockefeller's de-
cisiOn as the result of thought
full and honest observation and
considered the move as an "accur-
ate indication of Republican senti-
ment throughout the country.
II believe he exhibits the wis
dom and foresight of a natural
leader Mr.. Rockefeller is in
position as governor of New York
to continue exercising his leader
ship within the Republican Party
in constructive way and we are
fortunate indeed to have a man of
such calibre. / am sure he will be
an active and articulate cam
paigner for the national ticket in
the coming election.
Haskell served the government
twice as staff assistant to Rookie
feller. In 1855 before Rockefeller
became governor of New York,
Haskell was consultant to Rookie
feller while he served as a spe-
cial assistant to President Eisen-
hover in foreign affairs. During
1853 and 1854, Haskell was an as
sistant to Rockefeller, who was
serving as undersecretary of health,
education and welfare.
''From the formulation of the
Good Neighbor Policy in Latin
America to active participation as
assistant secretary in the forma-
ton of the United Nations, to the
leadership in the reorganization of
the executive branch of the federal
government since 1852, which in
cludes formation of the Depart
ment of Health, Education and
Welfare, Nelson Rockefeller has
served his country with distinc-
tion", Haskell said.
Haskell said hes has respect"
for Rockefeller's decision because
Il know it was made to benefit his
country and his party.
The Delaware Republican con-
cluded with a tribute to Nixon. 81
for Vice President Nixon. His
training and personal qualifications
to be President are truly out
standing and unique. We welcome
him as our candidate with enthu-
siasm and look forward to doing
battle at his side during the forth
coming campaign.
Among Democratic leaders who
could be reached, the general opin-
ion was that Rockefeller would
have been harder to heat than
Nixon.
William S. Potter, Democratic
national committeeman, said he was
not at all surprised by the with
drawal of the New York governor.
Nixon was in on the ground floor
with the organization in the vari-
Gus states, he pointed out
frankly, / think Nixon will be
an easier man for us to beat. he
added.
Speaker Sherman w. Tribbitt of
the House of Representative said
that high level leaders of the Re-
publican Party did not want a con-
test 'sand there will be no con-
test. He added: 81 thought Rookie
feller would be harder for the
Democratic Party to beat.
U. S. Senator j. Allen Frear, Jr.,
(D-DeD, said the announcement by
the New York governor was Sc
mild surprise" He said he felt all
along that the vice president would
be the candidate.
