Senator Urges Investigation WASHINGTON Ifl Sen. Ke fauver (D-Tenn) said Wednesday he doubts some fellow senators re trying "as hard as they could" -to break the logjam holding up an investigation of the McCarthy Army row. The Senate Investigations sub committee has been trying since March 16 to find a special counsel lor the public and televised hear- . lngs at which it will investigate charges exchanged by Sen. Mc Carthy (R-Wls) and high Army of ficials. McCarthy has stepped aside temporarily as subcommittee chairman to let Sen. Mundt (R SD) preside at the inquiry. , Kefauver said in an interview he will renew Thursday his re quest that the Senate Armed Serv ices Committee launch its own in vestigation of the charges if the McCarthy subcommittee has not by then "shown some solid pro gress" toward getting its inquiries started. "It looks," he said, "as it the subcommittee is not pushing this thing as hard as they could." Mundt had said Tuesday he had nothing to announce concerning the quest for a capable, neutral coun sel to help out In the investigation. Sen. Jackson (D-Wash), who has been helping Mundt in the search, has told reporters he knows of no ''stalling" tactics. An Army report accused Mc Carthy and Roy M.-Cohn, chief subcommittee counsel of seeking special favors for a drafted as sociate. Pvt. G. David Schlne. Mc Carthy replied that Secretary of the Army Stevens and John C. Adams, an Army counsel, tried "blackmail" tactics designed to discourage the subcommittee's in vestigations of Reds in the Army.
