as result of his personal clash with
w. H. Andersen, one of Mr.. Schaub's
eyes was injured and the sight might
be destroyed. He quickly replied that
it was not SO bad as, that. He was
asked whether he intended to sue Mr..
Andersen for damages, and he had
nothing to say about that. -,,i,5 -,
Mr.. Schaub declared that the clash
between himself and ,Mr, Andersen
was due to personal causes. He said
that in q recent COURT procedure he
was attorney for MI. Andersen and
Mr.. Andersen had been charged SIS
and was very angry about that. MI
Sehaub said he hadlbeen told that Mr.
Andersen had threatened repeatedly
to get even with him. AS far as dis
loyal utterances were concerned, Mr.
Schaub said he had not met with Mr.
Andersen or talked with him for more
than a year.
Mr.. Schaub said the statement that
he made in the saloon that resulted in
his being struck by Rudolph Robson
was that is was not right that Albert
Pfaender was being called a traitor
and condemned in the press and out
of it before the committee that was
investigating his case has reported. Mr.
Schaub said his remark might have
been misunderstood.
