Subcommittee's
Coordinator on
Witness Stand
Washington - (UPD - Senate
Investigators opened their
long awaited investigation of
the Billie Sol Estes case today
by hearing a statement that
it was "inconceivable" that
government inefficiency alone
enabled the Texan to amass
thousands of acres of im
proper cotton allotments.
This assessment was given
to the Senate investigations
subcommittee by Paul E.
Kamerick, the group's assist
ant counsel and coordinator
for the Washington phase of
the committee's staff study of
Estes' operations.
Kamerick was the first wit
ness. Agriculture Secretary
Orville L. Freeman was
scheduled to testify later in
the day.
Even as the politically ex
plosive hearings got under
way. Sens. Karl E. Mundt (R-
S.D.) and Edmund Muskie
(D-Maine) became involved in
a dispute over the possible
outcome.
Muskie said he could not
resist noting Mundl's opening
comment that " 'We enter
these hearings . . . with no
prejudgments,' " and the sen
ator's following statement
that "It appears that we will
find glaring examples of in
decision, conflicting decisions,
and duplications..."
Something Amiss
Mundt said he was sorry
Muskie saw fit to "challenge"
the remarks, and said he
stood on both of them. He
added that no one could fol
low the staff inquiry without
learning that something was
amiss in the Agriculture De
partment. "I did not challenge the
statement; I simply read it,"
Muskie replied.
Kamerick said inefficiency
probably did play a part in
the case. He said the sub
committee might want to con
sider proposing "a major re
organization" of the Agricul
ture Department and farm
program which he said had
been developed "piecemeal"
fashion over the century of its
existence. '
But Kamerick said that "a
system which permits ineffi-
ciency encourages dishonesty
and some of the facts we have
developed are hard to ex
plain merely on the basis of
inefficiency."
Kamerick also made these
points:
-Undersecretary of Agricul
ture Charles S. Murphy over
rode an adverse personnel
recommendation and directed
the appointment of Estes to
the newly official Agriculture
Department Cotton Advisory
Committee Dec. 22, 1961. That
was the same day Murphy
participated in a later - te
scinded decision that Estes'
1961 cotton allotments should
be cancelled.
-Two of 11 internal audit
groups operating in the de
partment began independent
investigations of Estes opera
tions in mtil. Neither learned
until early this year of the
other's inquiry. The two in
vestigations were never co
ordinated. Will Probe Favoritism
Kamerick testified after
Chairman John L. McClelhm
(D-Ark.) opened the inquiry
with a pledge to try to nail
down whether the government
showed favoritism toward
Estes. He said the subcom
mittee also would look into
the "efficiency and integrity"
of agriculture employees who
dealt with Estes.
McClellan said the im
portance of making sure that
tlte department is operating
efficiently and honestly was
underscored by the fact that
"through it during the current
fiscal year approximately $7.1
billion was expended."
The chairman noted that In
mtil. 8.717.8 acres of cotlon
allotments were transferred
from one location to another
throughout tiie 1'nited States.
"Of this numher 60 per
cent were transferred to two
counties in Texas. Reeves and
Pecos. Of the total transferred
to these Iwo counties. 6(1 per
cent accrued to the benefit of
Billie Sol F.stes. The inequity
is apparent. It is rather clear
that something is wrong, that
a breakdown of some type
has occurred."
