MISCONDUCT CHARGES
U.S. Senator (N Z. PrexK Attn—Copyright • WASHINGTON, March 13. Senator Thomas Dodd faces a jury of his peers on charges of misconduct today tn the climax of an investigation that threatens to rock Congress with another major scandal. After nearly a year of investigating, the six-member Senate Ethics Committee was to open hearings on charges of conflict of interest and allegations that the Connecticut Democrat pocketed campaign funds and double and triple-charged for air fares. The resumption of the Dodd investigation came on the heels of the House’s investigation and expulsion of Adam Clayton Powell, a New York Democrat, on charges of “payroll padding” and misuse of public funds.
