There is a virtual population
explosion Of lawyers on the sub
committee and on. its staff.
None Of them, however, likes to
ask a question that begins Did
you or did you not?"
This reluctance gives the
committees activities the flavor
Of a seminar. Such abstract
matters as big business ethics,
the effect of foreign competi-
ton on the domestic market,
the validity of the lie-detector,
and the wisdom of j. Edgar
Hoover are given an airing. But
everybody hates to get down
to business and ask a man if he
did wrong
Big Fish Present
This morning the committee
had a big fish before it-Arthur
r. VinoSon, q General Electric
vice president, who has been
accused by four previous wit
nesses of telling them to fix
prices at q luncheon held some
time In 1858.
The question, it would seem,
was a simple one. Did he sit
down with them and order
price-fixing, or didn't he?
Mr.. VinSon, a large, self
assured, articulate man, want
ed the question to be asked.
He asked someone to ask him,
and when no one would, he
answered it any way.
But the subcommittee likes
to go the long way around, and
Mr.. Vinson got on the record
a long history Of his ignorance
Of price-fixing, before anyone
asked him If he was a party
to 1t.
Never Heard of It
AS a matter Of fact, he said,
he never heard Of it.
II was brought up in the
