House Leaders
On U. Chamber

Chairmen Of each Of the 20
House committees received q
letter yesterday from Chairman
Patman of the Banking and
Currency Committee, advising
them to be on guard against
witnesses from the United
States Chamber Of Commerce.
Mr.. Patman called attention
to a speech by Chamber Presi-
dent Edward P. Netlan at the
National Press Club last week.
He said the speech questioned
the morality Of Congress and
indeed the morality Of repre-
sentative government" He said,
views expressed by Mr.. Neilan
seemed to border on the sub
versive. /"
"Since your committee doubt
less receives frequent petitions
from representatives Of the
Chamber Of Commerce on pend
ing legislation and other pro-
posals," Mr.. Patman wrote to
his fellow chairmen, II wonder
If it would not be appropriate
for each committee chairman
to ascertain whether or not
these representatives share the
views Of Mr.. Neilan, and also
whether or not these repre-
sentatives are petitioning COM
mittees with motives similar to
those that MIR. Neilan attributes
to other individuals and groups
who petition Congress-"

have been to cut the artery in
two, stitch the layers Of the

the artery back together again.

At $40 am, as the Senator's
wife, Nancy. and two of their
