Columnist Refuses
To Tell Name of
Anonymous Congressman
WASHINGTON W — Columnist
Jack Anderson refused Tuesday to
tell a congressional committee the
name of “an anonymous congress
man’’ who gave him information
for an article titled “Congressmen
Who Cheat.”
He invoked the first amendment,
guaranteeing freedom of speech
and the press, during a brief but
turbulent session of the House Ad
ministration Committee.
Accusations such as “bluff and
bark” and “you’re a coward” were
hurled across the committee table
as chairman Omar Burleson, (D
Tex.), rapped the meeting to ad
journment amid scattered boos
from spectators.
Anderson’s article was publish
ed March 4 in Parade, a weekly
magazine supplement, for which
Anderson is Washington corres
pondent. The committee decided
to look further into it because,
Burleson said, it made accusations
of misconduct and unlawful acts
on the part of members of Con
gress.
Anderson offered too give other
information to back up his claim
that there are “cheats and chiselers”
in Congress, but he would not
identify the suorce of his informa
tion. The committee would not al
low him to read a prepared state
ment after he refused to name his
news source.
The Parade article made allega
tions that some congressmen have
engaged in moral corner cutting
including profits on real estate
transactions based on confidentia
information received by congres
sional committees.
