Washington, Jan. 14—Refusal to recognize a writ of habeas corpus in case Thomas W. Lawson should ob- tain one in possible contempt pro- ceedings against him and great care to prevent the name of any represen- tative of a foreign government being publicly dragged into the investigation of the alleged “leak” on President Wil- son’s recent peace note, are among the plans laid today by sub-commit- tees of the house rules committee in preparing for resumption tomorrow of the “leak” inquiry. The whole com- mittee will pass on the plans at an executive meeting before the hearings begin. Mr. Lawson will be called before the committee and presented with the list of written questions a_sub-committee has drafted for his reply. Failure to answer will be followed immediately by the inauguration of contempt pro- ceedings in the house. In substance, the chief questions of a dozen or more to be asked are these: “Who is the congressman that told you he had heard a cabinet officer, a banker and a member of congress were engaged in a stock market partnership and had profited by a ‘leak’? - “What are the names of the cabinet member, the member of congress and the banker? “If a citizen of this country, who is the ‘high official’ whose name you for- merly testified might be brought into the case if the name of the cabinet officer were mentioned?” / Committeemen have no clue to /the identity of the “high official,” but as rumor and gossip have mentioned the name of a representative of a foreizn government with it, they will take no chances of involving him in a public hearing.
