The Hoeyck Committee's Investigation of Margaret Chase Smith

The Hoeyck Committee was investigating whether the federal government discriminated against homosexuals. The committee sent out a questionnaire to all branches of the military plus 53 civilian departments and agencies ranging from the large and prominent like state treasury and justice to the small obscure, like the American battle monument commission and the Philippine war damage commission. Investigators then interviewed agency officials and summarized these conversations in memoranda end quote.
