PHOTOGRAPHS
Of WORK ON
CANAL TAKEN
Local Men Visit Scene Where
Preliminary Soil Investiga-
tions Are Being Made.

Photographs of the first work
started on the All-American canal
were taken yesterday by Eddie Cub
bins of BraWley who accompanied
R. M. Priest, government engineer,
Chan Livingstone and A. E. Shirer
on trip to the site of the test
holes now being dug just south of
Pilot Knob, yesterday afternoon.
These pictures show the crew of
10 men at work with the Knob as a
background. On the other side was
the international line and the des-
ert.
A number of contractors have
been on the ground recently looking
the site over in preparation for en-
tering bids to dig the first section
of the canal. Four of these contrac-
tors were there yesterday.
Priest explained the work layout
to the visitors and stated that he
was very we'll satisfied with the la
borers who had been sent out from
Livingstone's office. They are all
good workers, he said, and in the
future he will have need OF many
more like them.
Livingstone stated this morning
that if government approval is OBJ
tanned he may establish a branch
employment office near the con-
struction work in order that the
supplying of workers for the canal
job may be made easier.
The government engineer said he
feels certain that under the public
works program speed is being stress
ed on getting these construction
jobs started and that the real work
of digging the canal will probably
start within 80 days after the bids
are allowed.
Motorists who wish TO visit the
side where this work is being done
should turn south about a mile
this side of Pilot Knob. At this
point is a desert road which leaves
the main highway, marked by a
yellow flag nailed to a stake. The
road, according to Livingstone, is
a good desert road but he cautions
motorists not to get off into the
sand.

By LYLE G. WILSON
United Press Staff Correspondent

WASHINGTON, Nov. %. U.P) -
Powerful political figures in the
Hoover administration were drawn
today into senate stock market in
vestigations when William Fox tes-
titled justice department records
were altered in an alleged bankers
conspiracy to seize control of his
moving picture empire in 1929.
Fox said he appealed directly to
President Hoover for protection
against "the conspirators.
The matter was taken up with
John Lord O'Brien. an assistant at
torney general in the Hoover ad-
ministration. Fox said that when
O'Brien was told Donovan had Or
ally approved the purchase, he sent
for the justice department record
and said:
"Mr. Fox, the record shows the
opposite of what you say. The re-
cord shows that you were told you
could not buy the stock"
Fox charged that Louis B. Mayer
then Republican national commit
teeman in California, had told him
that he (Mayer had caused de-
partment of justice records to be
! changed in 1929 to block merger
of the Fox and Loew interests.
Fox said he told O'Brian thai

! justice department record and az
he developed the story he implied
that Mayer was using his politica
influence TO block the Fox-LoeV
merger
Fox said Louis B. Mayer, ives
coast movie magnate and Hoovel
political leader in California, haC
told him he had caused the record
to be changed.
"When I learned any man hat
the power to go into the justic
department and change the rec
ords,'' Fox said, 81 was rathe
ashamed to be a citizen of tht
United States.''
"When Mayer said he was re-
sponsible, was that the first timt
you knew of it?' asked Ferdinand
Pecora, committee counsel.
"Yes,' Fox replied
Fox said that before appealing tt
the President he sought to adjus
his difficulties through Claudiu'
Houston, one-time chairman of the
Republican national committee, anC
James Francis Burke, then treas.
urer of the committee.

Protest Tempered
By Olympic Group

WASHINGTON, Nov. %. (U.P) -
The American Olympic association
has recorded its ardent hope thai
discrimination against Jewish ath-
letes in Germany will be removed
to assure participating by athletes
of the United States in the 18th
Olympiad at Berlin in 1896.
A somewhat ambiguous rcsolu-
ton on the subject was adopted by
the association at its quadrennial
meeting here after stormy debate
over whether to threaten non-par-
ticipation or to protest against jew
iSh discrimination.
The association also adopted
resolution asking diversion of
generous portion of public works
funds for the construction of ath-
letic and recreational parks. A pro-
posed code for amateurs was re-
ferred to the executive committee.
Avery Brundage was reelected pre-
