The Tennessee Democrat made public an exchange of telegrams with Mr. Hoover in which the former president said the Com mission had not had a chance to pass on the report and that he as chairman has "no authority to comply with your request."

The former chief executive replied Thursday, saying he would pass along the request to the commission, ' but I doubt if they will change their invariable rule, for conclusions and recom mendations are their sole re sponsibility." Kefauver wired Mr. Hoover again Friday saying "some of the information about sweeping and far-reaching changes in water resources and power pol icy recommended in this task force report has already ap peared as the result of leaks in the press." Should Study Report He said he could not under- tand what would prevent pub lication now "so that we in Con gress and the public will have the same opportunity to study this report that members of the commission have."
