Gag" Story
WASHINGTON-. Feb. 14 Ml

evidence of friction" among the
rival arms.

tor Johnson (D-Colo.) .
"I don't want the admirals and
generals to be a-feiidin, a-fightin'
and a-fussin' In public but I do
want them free to express their
opinion."
Chairman Curacy (R-S. D.I of
the senate armed services commit
tee said he is so "concerned" about
the order that he will ask his group
to "discuss it at our first session."
"I take it we are a free country,"
Gumey told a reporter. "I see no
reason why the public should not be
as fully informed as possible by
those qualified to speak upon mat
ters of national interest."
Senator Morse (R-Ore), a member
of the committee, agreed.
He said congress expects all mili
tary personnel to give information
"without censorship and without
fear of discipline being suffered by
the witness."
