One letter from Congressman Carlos J. Moorhead to Ed Meagher dated February 21, 1974. Agrees that money should not be spent in defense of Vice President Spiro Agnew. "I certainly believe that the Committee needs subpoena powers and am in favor of voting for that. But I was not in favor of a resolution that I believe to be so unfair and irresponsible."
