Excerpt from Reform of the Grand Jury System: Hearing Before the Subcommittee on Constitutional Rights of the Committee on the Judiciary, United States Senate, Ninety-Fourth Congress, Second Session S. 3274, H. R 1277, H. R. 6006, H. R. 6207, H. R. 10947, H. R. 11660, H. R. 11870, H. R. 14146, and H. The subcommittee met, pursuant to notice, at 10:05 a.m., in room 2228, Dirksen Senate Office Building, Hon. Charles McC. Mathias, Jr., presiding. Present: Senator Mathias. Staff present: Jane L. Frank, chief counsel and staff director, and Martin Levine, general counsel to the Subcommittee on Constitutional Rights; William Wilka, counsel to the Subcommittee on Separation of Powers, of the Committee on the Judiciary. Senator Mathias. The committee will come to order. Opening Statement of Hon. Charles McC. Mathias, Jr., A U.S. Senator. from the State of maryland I regret to report that our chairman. Senator Tunney of California, is necessarily absent. He has instructed me to preside in his absence. This morning, the subcommittee will open hearings on the operation of the grand jury system in the Federal courts. These are the first hearings to be held by the Senate on this topic in the entire history of the grand jury. Therefore, these hearings will have a significant potential for the future of our court system. Before proceeding further, I would like to submit for the record a statement by Senator Tunney, chairman of the Subcommittee on Constitutional Rights. [The statement referred to follows:] Opening statement of Hon. John V. Tunney, A U.S. Senator from the State of California; Chairman, Subcommittee on Constitutional Rights This morning´s hearing marks the first time the U.S. Senate has examined the grand jury system since the grand jury´s inclusion in the Bill of Rights some 185 years ago. This long-overdue examination is a logical extension of the hearings on "The Causes of Popular Dissatisfaction with the Administration of Justice" that I conducted this summer. Continuing revelation of Government lawlessness has led to a breakdown in public trust in the integrity of our institutions. The Federal grand jury has not escaped this skepticism.
