(AP Wirephoto) Pressure U.S. SENATORS PROB 'INFLUENCE' PEDDLIN Tactics - Charge Studied ~ . WASHINGTON (AP) -- Sen- ators begin their investigation today of Robert G. Baker, the page boy they called Bobby who quickly grew up to wealth and power as secretary of the-Sen- ate's Democratic majority. The first witness in the rules committee's closed hearing was to be Senator John J. Williams, Delaware Republican who has conducted a one-man investiga- tion of the affairs of Baker, 35, who resigned his Senate job un- der fire Oct. 7. A specific point under the committee's scrutiny is an al- legation that Baker used pres- sure tactics to induce big de- fence contractors to install at their plants vending machines of various kinds leased from a firm in which he had a finan- cia] stake. Baker has denied any pressure tactics were involved. The case has been followed by disclosure that Baker was a moving spirit in the organiza- tion of an exclusive Capitol Hill group known as the Quorum Club Incorporated, at a hotel across the street from the Sen- ate office building. Its member- ship included Congress mem- bers, lobbyists and others. Representative H. R. Gross (Rep. Iowa) has asked that the affairs of Mrs. Elly Rometsch, attractive West German bru- nette who was shipped home after allegedly bragging of ami- orous adventures with Washing- ton figures. One of the unconfirmed rum- ors was some members of Ba- ker's circle were on good terms with Mrs. Rometsch, 27, and that she was often seen at the Quorum Club. Gross said he "certainty hopes" the Senate group will check into the matter, But today's session is sched- uled to be given over to Wil- liams' reported interviews with persons who might shed light on Baker's business activities, As for Mrs. Rometsch, Gross told the House of Representa- tives Monday: 'Members of Congress and the public are en- titled to know whether there was any element of security vi- olation concerned in this speedy and hitherto unpublicized de- portation."
