Senator Alan Cranston was excused from testifying before the Senate Ethics committee on the grounds that his treatment for prostate cancer left him too ill to undergo the stress of public questioning. The committee finished its questioning of Senator Donald Riegle, whose testimony was characterized by the panel’s vice-chairman, Warren Rudman, as “remarkably inconsistent.” Following the hearing, Senator Trent Lott spoke to reporters, and criticized the committee for failure to direct the hearing in a timely fashion. Mr. Lott, a member of the Ethics committee, said that he would be surprised if the committee did not recommend to take up the conduct of at least one of the senators before the full Senate. close
