And after an exchange yesterday with the chairman of the Assembly Interim committee on governmental efficiency and economy, Bowron marched out of the hearing room. Bowron appeared voluntarily as the committee opened a hearing on the controversial $110,000,000 public housing project issue. I question the purpose of this committee,” declared Bowron. “I have never seen a legislative committee used to influence a local election before.” He demanded to know what right it had to investigate a local issue and how it could use state money for such a purpose. Committee Chairman Albert L. Stewart of Pasadena said it is the committee’s duty to investigate. The mayor refused to disclose who had told him that pressure was being exerted against the committee to investigate the housing issue. Asked to withdraw his statement about press, the mayor stalked indignantly from the room, and the meeting broke up.
