have found no evidence of excessive campaign expenditure by Senatorelect Homer Capeharn®

The double-barreled inquiry also involved charge of fraud in Marion County (Indianapolis)# Chairman Stewart (D# Tenn#) said he would recommend that these findings be turned over to the Depart¬ ment of Justice#
"I do not believe there are any grounds for prosecution," Ball declared, adding that "nothing serious" had been found in other Indiana districts checked following complaints of asserted irregularities •
