NEW GROUPS PROBE JOHNSTON CHARGE #ouse Committee Divided to £xpedite Inquiry as Sena- tors Begin Quiz. By the Associated Press. OKLAHOMA CITY, January 17— The House of Representatives commit- | tee seeking evidence of irregularity ln\ the administration of Gov. Henry S. Johnston today planned to separate into at least three groups, each of which will follow trails already uncovered by the committee as a whole. This procedure was forecast late yes- terday when the House passed a resolu- | tion empowering the investigating com- | mittee to create subcommittees from its ‘membership, each to have the power of | the general committee. While the Reprenestatives are pur- suing their investigation, a committee of five Senators today were expected to open a public inquiry into newspaper re- | ports alleging corruption in connection | with the sudden dispersal of Senate members last Winter during an attempt- ©d impeachment, session. While digressing from time to time on other trails, the investigating com- mittee of the House has returned fre- quently to the question of issuance by the governor of a pardon to a convicted murderer and a fugitive from justice. The pardon of Dewey Crossthwaite, which witnesses have said Gov. John- ston admitted was “the greatest mistake of his life,” was brought into the in- vestigation again yesterday by H. E.| Sullivan, secretary to the governor, who again told of the haste with which the pardon was prepared for the chief ex- ecutive’s signature. ROCKVILLE.
