Former Car Ispector Witness in Hi

Chicago, Ill. = Harold A. Sims
told striking story of wholesale graft
before Master in Chancery Roosevelt
B. Mason here in connection with the
investigation being made into the al
legged $1,500,000 car repair fraud in
the Illinois Central railroad.
Sims, former car inspector for the
railroad, And later in the employ of
one of the five car repair companies
charged with the fraud, declared that
the Illinois Central was made to fur
nish not only materials, but also labor
for repairs, and then was charged from
one of three prices for the work
through an elaborate system of pad.
ded bills.
Sims said the greater part of the
woodwork supposed to have been done
in the independent shops and for
which the railroad company paid a
round figure, was really done at the
Illinois Central shops in Memphis. He
said the railroad company was prac.
tically paying handsomely for doing
work for itself.
