Further developments were an

not begun as result of instructions
received from the department of jus.
tice in Washington, d. c., nor at the
suggestion of any local political party.
The information upon which the
investigation is based" he added,
was volunteered by well-known To-
cal man who, although q voter, has
no strong political affiliations. Poll.
tics will play no part in any proceed

According to recent developments,
Attorney Huber, while he has found
that no actual payments have been
made to campaign funds by local cor.

that certain corporations have voted
