Political Charge Denied

The committee, founded by Publisher Frank Gannett, has contended in opposition to Anderson, that its activities are not. political: The committee charged that Anderson had made “biased insinuations” against the committee ire relation to the printing bill “withouf wailing for. the explanation which he demanded.” “The methods by which this stolen document came into his hands, the gross misinterpretation that he has projected to the press, should themselves be investigated,” the committee. said.

Texas Report Demanded

In a letter to Anderson, dated Jan. 1 and released today, the committee also asked that “the full record” of investigations of the committee's ‘activities in Texas be published. ‘ “You suggested that we had collected and spent more than $100,000 in Texas for political purposes and that you were going to investigate,” the letter said. “Hearings were held in Texas, much testimony recorded that refuted these and other false charges and press reports emanating from your committee's work. We now underitand that this portion of the hearings may be suppressed and not published on the ground, alleged or real, that the secretary who recorded the minutes ig il.” The committee charged that Anderson had misused “the prestige of congress and the confidence of the public and the press” in making statement “not only unfounded but seriously damaging to the committee, possibly even libelous.” Calling * attention to the bill of rights provision of security against “unreasonable searches and seizures,” the committee pointed out that congress is “under obligation to. uphold this basic constitutional principle.
