ing, Derryberry didn't say.
On Wednesday, the gov-
ernor asked to delay a
scheduled 8:30 a.m. meet-
ing until 9 a.m.
Derryberry showed <up
on schedule and then 10
minutes later the governor
sent word he wouldn't be
able to attend, and can-
celled the meeting.
Shortly afterward, the
governor's office an-
nounced Hall would stage
a news conference
Wednesday night to reply
to Derryberry's charges
against him.
Newsmen this morning
pressed Derryberry for a
statement and reaction to
the governor's blast. After
being closeted for almost
two hours in a conference,
the attorney general said
he would offer a statement
at 2:45 p.m.

WASHINGTON (AP) -
Editorial and commercial
employees of the Washing-

today, ending a 16-day
strike.
Members of the Wash-

two-year contract that will

today was State Treasurer
Leo Winters, who support-
ed both Hall and Derryber-
ry in their campaigns.
Winters was present in
the Blue Room at the Capi-
tol for the governor's news
conference Wednesday
night, however.
Winters is organizer of
the Independent Citizens
for Good Government,
which contributed $43,OfMl
to Derryberry's election
campaign, but was not list-
ed by name — although
the amount was included
in contributions totals —
on Derryberry's campaign
cohtributions report.
Hall said Wednesday
night he hopes authorities
will pursue Derryberry on
that subject as vigorously
as they have hounded the
governor about allegations
of wrongdoing.
Hall spent more time at
the news conference at-
tacking Derryberry per-
sonally than he did provid-
ing direct answers to spe-
cific allegations against
the governor contained in
Derryberry's report.

the session.
If that was in repayment
for Hall's cancellation of a
scheduled Capitol Im-
provement Authority
It was that project which meeting Wednesday morn-
Derryberry singled out ih
his report, issued Monday,
as involving "the most (
far-reaching kickback
sc heme uncovered during
the entire investigation."
The attorney general ac-
cused Gov. Hall of telling '
his former fund-raiser.
Carl G. Ballew, that loans
extended to the governor
would be repaid from the
tax and education building
work.
Gov. Hall flatly denied
during his Wednesday
news conference that he
had ever made such a
statement to Ballew.
Derryberry also accused
the governor in his report
of helping the contractor.
E. Allen Cowen II. obtain
the tax and education
building contract. Hall re-
fused to comment on that
accusation during his
Wednesday news confer-
ence.
Derryberry's list of
questions also reportedly
asked Gov. Hall about any
funds he received from or .
through Cowen, Ballew or '
A. W. "Sunny" Jenkins, •
one-time principal aide to
the governor.
Ballew and Jenkins have I
testified before Oklahoma
City and Tulsa grand ju-
ries that they raised up to
$10,000 per month, either
through personal loans or
by soliciting from persons
doing business with the
state, to pay Gov. Hall'i
personal bills.
Cowen, who was a close
friend of Jenkins and even
shared an apartment al
one time, was a contribu-
tor to Hall's 1970 guberna-
torial campaign.
The attorney general's
questions to Hall also re-
portedly asked about cam-
paign contributions from
any person doing business
with the state, regardless
of the type business.

close to the governor both
confirmed such an
change had occurred.
One Capitol source said
the attorney general may
address the subject public-
ly at a later date and may
consider releasing the
questions.
Derryberry's questions
are believed to haye num-
bered more than a dozen
and were submitted to
Gov. Hall about April 12,
ten days before the attor-
ney general issued his re-
port and called for an im-
peachment study by the
House.
Gov. Hall was asked to
respond within about one
week, although McDivitt
initially replied a response
would take longer, sources
said.
The questions reportedly
focused on the contract for
the new tax and education
buildings awarded to E- A.
Cowen Construction, Inc.,
of Shawnee.
consider Impeachment of
the governor.
"This overlooks the fact
that we have already dealt
with quite a bit of legisla-
tion on contracting," said
Willis, "so I felt that com-
mittee was not needed."
Willis then read directly
from the Derryberry re-
port in which the attorney
general recommended the
committee authorized by
the resolution..
The speaker told the
House that the rules com-
mittee had not changed
the resolution In any way
from that recommended
by the attorney general.
Willis said the commit-
tee would report in writing
to the full House.
He noted that Derryber-
ry spent three months on
his Investigation of the
governor, and that Rep.
Frank Keating spent seven
weeks in researching ma-
terial Keating used in
drafting a 39-page resolu-
tion calling for impeach-
ment of the governor.
"So it is my feeling if
this committee spent two
weeks in looking at all the Willis replied.

Rep. A. V. Johnson, jp-
Oklahoma City, then asked
if the House is bound by
the constitution or statute
to accept the attorney gen-
eral's report.
Willis said it is not.
Rep. Victor Wicker-
sham, D-Mangum, asked
If, in view of the fact all
present gubernatorial can-
didates and Derryberry all
are personal friends,
"would it be proper if I as-
s e r t my constitutional
rights or should I vote?"
"As members of the
House, we all have friends,
but I think we all should
vote," Willis replied.
Rep. Jack Lindstrom,
D-Lawton, then referred
House members to a news
story in morning papers
indicating four defendants
in lawsuits filed by the at-
torney general in connec-
tion with alleged compli-
mentary bidding on state
projects might be released
from the suit.
"It is questionable that
we should go along with
the same attorney general
who would file against four
innocent people," Lind-
strom declared.
"The answer to that,"
■PHL "is that
these are not the same
charges and the same per-
son is not being investigat-
ed as is referred to in this
resolution."
Townsend then pressed a
motion to pass the resolu-
tion, cutting off further
questions.
Willis
launched a series of ques- i _ .
tlons which brought repon- ’ other to recommend
ses explaining the function whether the House should
and mechanics of the com-
mittee.
"T h e resolution was
drawn by the attorney gen-
eral to conform to Item 4
in his report to the legisla-
ture, the press and the
public," S pie a k e r Willis
said.
Willis noted that Atty.
Gen. Larry Derryberry
had actually recommend-
ed two committees, one to
consider whether addition-
al legislation is needed
concerning state contract-

evidence which has been
produced, they would be

said.
Keating asked if the
committee would look be-
yong the information pro-
vided by the attorney gen-
eral.
"I would hope that in
studying the evidence al-
ready available, if they
saw a need to go beyond
that they would," Willis re-
plied.
Could the House stll ex-
pect a report in two weeks
if that were the case?
Keating asked.
