Senator Owen Brewster (R. Me.), a committee member, revealed that the committee had in its possession evidence linking the Tacoma, Wash., New Dealer to a $2500 check from a Washington war contractor. Although the check was made out specifically to Rep. Coffee's secretary, Paul A. Olson, Senator Brewster said Rep. Coffee wrote a letter to the contractor thanking him profusetly for the “slip of paper” and promising to “be alert” whenever his interests were involved. May Subpenaed Mr. Brewster emphasized that the Coffee incident had no relation whatsoever to the committee's probe of a $78,000,000 Midwestern “paper empire” munitions combine. The committee yesterday subpenaed 71-

year-old Rep. Andrew J. May (D.|-

Ky.) to tell under oath what he knows about the group. : Mr. Brewster said, however, that the committee's probe might be expanded immediately to include the Coffee incident.
