 RELATING TO THE APPREHENSION OF CERTAIN PERSONS DE-
 SIRED AS WITNESSES BEFORE THE SPECIAL COMMITTEE TO
 INVESTIGATE ORGANIZED CRIMEj IN INTERSTATE COMMERCE


   FEBRUARY 8 (legislative day, JANUARY 29), 1951-Ordered to be printed


Mr. KEFAUVER, from the Special Committee To Investigate Organized
      Crime in Interstate Commerce, submitted the following

                         REPORT
                     ITo accompany S. Res. 65]

information this committee must obtain in order properly to discharge
its duty under the terms of Senate Resolution 202.

of the fact that the committee is seeking their testimony and presence
and have left their usual residences and places of business and gone
into hiding, or-have left the United States -in the hope that the com-

they can be served and thus required to testify.
  The committee' has issued subpenas for these witnesses and through
the efforts of its own staff has diligently sought to have the subpenas
