Gore Urges Broadscale Probe
info Campaign Contributions
Washington U.R) Chairman
Albert Gore (D-Tenn.) today
urged the Senate Elections sub
committee to approve a broad
scale, election-year investigation
into campaign contributions and
lobbying.
Gore said he would propose to
,the subcommittee at a morning
meeting a -"far wider, more ex
tensive" inquiry than that being
made by a Senate select , com
mittee into the $2,500 campaign
contribution offered to Sen.
Francis Case (R-S.D.). ?
Gore moved ahead with his
plans while member's of the se
lect committee split sharply on
whether they should broaden the
Case inquiry to cover the same
ground the Gore group was being
asked to consider.
Such a step could raise a
jurisdictional dispute between
the elections subcommittee and
the select committee headed by
Sen. Walter F. George (D-Ga.)
that only the full Senate could
settle. ' r
George, after a conference
with Gore Wednesday, said he
saw nothing "at this time" to
varrant a broadened inquiry by
his select committee. But Sen.

Styles Bridges (R-N.H.) the.
George committee's top-ranking
Republican, said the . group
should go beyond the Case affair
and look into the "great deal of
pressure" put on members of
Congress by groups opposed to
the gas bill. . -
Bridges mentioned utility and
union "lobbies" as among such
groups.
Second To Call Inquiry
Bridges was the second GOP
member of the select committee
to call for an extended inquiry.
Sen. Edward J. Thye (R-Minn.)
said earlier he favored looking
into any and all contributions
bearing on the gas bill.
George said the decision would
be up to the Senate but that in
any event he cannot serve on the
special committee much beyond
next week. He hopes the inves
tigation of the Case incident can
be wound up by then.
George said he did not think
it mattered whether the broad
ened investigation is conducted
by the special committee or one
of the Senate's standing com
mitees. .

a $280,000 robbery of his swank
fur salon. - ;
Lanza, a close personal friend

utes before the jury. The singer

after the purported robbery oc
curred. "I went there to get a wheel
chair for my 83-year-old grand
mother," Lanza said.

was pale and shaking, ' Lanza
testified.

quoted the : furrier, - who once
loaned him $60,000 when he;
needed the money for taxes.
"They got me again." ' --'
