A HOUSE INVESTIGATIVE COMMITTEE LOOKING INTO THE COM-ED BRIBERY SCHEME IS WRAPPING UP WITHOUT TAKING ANY ACTION.

THE COMMITTEE WAS SET UP AT THE REQUEST OF THE G-O-P, ALLEGING SPEAKER MADIGAN ENGAGED IN CONDUCT UNBECOMING OF A LEGISLATOR WHEN DEALING WITH COM ED. IT ONLY MET THREE TIMES AND HEARD FROM ONE WITNESS. REPUBLICAN REPRESENTATIVE DEANNE MAZZOCHI OF WESTMONT SAYS THERE NEEDS TO BE FURTHER INVESTIGATION.

DEMOCRATS, LIKE REPRESENTATIVE CHRIS WELCH OF WESTCHESTER, DISMISS THAT IDEA.

 THEY VOTED TO NOT TAKE ANY ACTION AGAINST THE SPEAKER.
