THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 8, 1949 BROOKINGS-HARBOR PILOT. BROOKINGS, OREGON Task Force Moors to Polar Ice Ey Harris Ellsworth, M. C Everything is very ouiet on th? house side of the Capitol now. Practically all of the representa tives have left Washington. The house recess ends officially Sept. 21, but since that is the middle of the week nothing except rou tine business will be transacted until Monday, the 26th. In a few days I will leave for Europe with members of the ccm- tain men holding high positions of public trust. Hunt has been smeared somewhat. I don’t think much of his “profession” and it mittee on interstate and foreign C. 0.

Two ships of a Naval expedition to the Antarctic, the USS Edisto and the USS Burton Island, tie up to bay ice in the course of exploration work in the South Polar regions. The above photo was taken in the Bay of Whales. Sled and skis used in surface exploration are in the left foreground. The Navy's role in carrying the flag of the United States to the ends of the earth is exemplified in its frequent sallies into the south and north polar fastnesses. (Official U.S. Navy Photograph) J commerce. Public health legisla tion is assigned to that commit tee. Hearings have already been held by the committee on the Truman socialized medicine bills. We discovered, how’ever, that 1st hand information regarding the operation of socialized medicine in England would be vital to a really careful consideration of such legislation. It is my intention to do con siderable of what might be called private investigating when I am in England with the committee. I know the group wall be given plenty of official information and that a competent report will be written on the facts and figures obtained by the committee. What I want most to know, however, can best be obtained by talking with people — doctors, w’orking people, officials, and everyone w ho will spare the time for conversa tion. I also want to dig rather deeply into the question of fi nance. This subject is so ex tremely important that I feel a great need for every scrap of reliable information I can get. The committee will come home by air and will arrive back in Washington the morning of the 26th of the month. * * * The senate committee investi gation into the activities of the so-called “5 per centers” has this capitol city agog these days. It is a sordid revelation of th? sort of thing that can and does go» on when appointments to high! places in this the greatest gov-i eminent in the world are made almost solely upon the basis of friendship and politics. I think in fairness, and just to keep the record straight about this “5 per center” mess, I should point out that the center of the disturbance, a former army offi-j cer by the name of James Hunt,! apparently did nothing either dis honest or illegal. All I know’ about it is what I read in the newspa pers—and the Washington, D. C., papers are full of it—but it is pretty clear to me that Hunt has been doing nothing more or less than ordinary attorneys and lob byists here do, and have been do ing for many years. They rep resent clients who want to do business with the government on the most favorable basis possible. Hunt knows his way around Washington and in government circles and charged his clients a fee for using that knowledge for them. He seemed to be able to deliver fairly well because of the cupidity and low calibre of cer- may be just as well not to turn the heat on such people. How ever, let’s not forget that the real guilt lies with those people Hunt was able to “influence.” It seems likely now that this session of congress will adjourn for the remainder of the year| along about the 15th of October. I plan to get home just as soon as I can after the business of the session is completed. 1 still expect to be able to visit all seven of the Fourth Congressional district counties before the end of the! year. Meanwhile this is the last “letter from Washington” for several weeks and possibly for this year.
