In a prepared statement, Anderson told the committee he respected “the right of congressional committees to subpena persons and things in their effort to ascertain the truth in the interest of the people,” “I am loath to question the right j of congressional subpena,” he added. “With wise use it is an instruI ment of great value to the congress and the people.” Anderson, doubtful of his legal right to turn over data gathered in confidence of trading exchanges, had suggested the congress adopt a resolution asking him to turn over the desired lists. This, the Republican leadership had refused to do. In the face of Anderson’s stand, however, the committee voted to support a joint house-senate resolution asking Anderson to turn over the records. Anderson-said “I think it will pass.” 0 SENATE REJECTS (Continued from Page 1) president authority to exercise allocation controls if voluntary methods failed. On the vote, the Democrats opposing the Barkley amendment were Sens Harry F. Byrd and A. Willis Robertson, both of Virginia. Sen. Wayne L. Morse, R., Ore., was the only Republican who supported it. 0 Markets At A Glance By United Press Stocks irregular in moderately active trading. Bonds higher; U. S. governments did not trade.
