Draft of Hoover
As Clean-Up Head
Is Recommended
Washington (U.R) A key
House member recommended ;
Thursday that Congress draft!
FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover j
to take over Newbold Morris !
job as head o fthe government's!
drive against corruption.
Rep. Francis E. Walter, Pa., j
a ranking Democrat on the
House Judiciary Committee, ,
made the proposal. He told a ;
reporter he would wage a "strong !
fight" for its approval at a;
closed committee meeting. j
Power Rejection Urged
A Judiciary Subcommittee
recommended Wednesday that;
the House follow the senates
lead and reject President Tru
man's request for subpoena pow
ers for Morris.
Walter approved that recom
mendation, but said Hoover
should handle the cleanup job
instead of turning it over to an
"independent investigator" as
the subcommittee proposed.
Ability Unquestioned
Recalling the hubbub stirred
up by the Senate investigation
of Morris' role in a highly-prof
itable surplus tanker deal.
Walter said:
"It is unfortunate that Mr
Morris has accumulated the at
mosphere he has. Perhaps he
could have handled the job."
As for Hoover, he said, no one
can question his "ability or in
tegrity" and few if any doubt
that "he would do a fine job.
Kerr Effort in
California Fails
Los Angeles (U.R) Demo
cratic Leader John B. Elliott
has announced that it was "phy
sically impossible" to complete
a full slate of delegates in time
for Sen. Robert S. Kerr (D.,
Okla.), to be entered in the
California primary in place of
President Truman.
Elliott said Wednesday that
the effort has collapsed because
the April 4 deadline did not give
supporters sufficient time.
"There was marked enthusi
asm for Senator Kerr by .Dem
ocrats over the state." Elliott
said.
Elliott said he had received a
j telegram from the Senator ex
pressing his sincere thanks to
Democratic leaders who pledged
their support and his "regret"
that they could not enter the
primary.
