Description
Howard L. Holtzendorff (right), City Housing Authority "czar" and chief target of federal hearing in Los Angeles, faces Clare Hoffman, chairman of a House committee, in a bitter battle of wits at the fiery investigation on May 20, 1953. The session at times developed finger-waving and table-pounding the day before.
