AGENT ACCUSED
Got Mysterious $4,000
During Lobby Stunt

WASHINGTON, D. c., March 10.
-Claudius Huston, COP. national
chairman and lobbyist against pub
lie operation of the government pow
er plant at Muscle Shoals, brought
the name Of the Brotherhood of
Locomotive Engineers into his de-
fensive testimony before the Senate
lobby probe committee, March Ia.
Huston was entrusted by the B. of
l.. E., following their convention in
1927, with the post of financial adj
wiser in selling some of their pro-
perties.
These properties were part of the
$30,000,000 swindle put over in the
name of labor banks, insurance COM
panies, and real estate ventures, by
the chiefs of the B. of L. E. They
failed with a loud crash over a year
ago, and the locomotive engineers
have been paying $40 assessments to
save some of their leaders from 60
ing to Jail. 1t now appears that
the personnel hired by the B. of L. E.
officials are mixed up in some other
rackets.
Lobbied For Madden Bill.
Senators Black and Blaine had
questioned Huston as to his getting
$4,000 from the Union Carbide Co.,
which was to have shared in the
profit from handing Muscle Shoals
over to the American Cyanamid Co.,
through enactment of the Madden
bill. He admitted having deposited
this money in his private brokerage

 The first application of Peterson's takes out the inflammation. brings blessed relief from that painful itch ing.
 Repeated use of this powerfully soothing. healing Ointment assures d marvelously smooth, delicate skin.
