though It did not hamper the attend
ance at the two cards that followed.

RYAN AND WILLIE FAKE" was
the headline in the Standard. Crowd

Reported Cleverness and Does no
Fighting, and Willie Pretends 10 be
Knocked Out" was the subheading.
The story related that the men put
UP as raw a fake as was ever seen any
where. For three rounds they played
tag with each other, and in the fourth,
a gentle tap by Ryan to WillieS head,
caused the latter to slip to his knees
for the count OF nine. AS he got up,
Ryan threw two vicious blows to VIII
lies head, though they did not find
their target. Then Ryan again tapped
him lightly and Willie went down for
the full count. His features were not
marred in any way. The crowd went
wild; not with delight, but with wrath.
Only brief account of the fight was
reported. The writer's theme song was
disgust, rather than enthusiasm.
Jack Chrystal, for 40 years foreman
of the Anaconda Standard composing
room, was a townie of Ryans, from
Syracuse. Jack came over from Ana
conda to see Ryan, whom he knew be-
fore coming west. He talked with Ryan
IN the theatre foyer before the fight,
which he did not stay to see. The
crowd was small, and Ryan was wor-
ried about his guarantee. He told
Chrystal he wouldn't get in his ring
toys unless he got his dough before
hand
Lou Was White Hope
In 1913, Lou Boedecker, now highway
patrol supervisor, was one Of many
white hopes" Lou, who weighed $50
pounds, and had an altitude Of 8 foot
seven, was considered by Ryan as pos
sible heavyweight champion. He sent
for the Deer Lodge youth who spent
a year at Syracuse, living at the Ryan
home. He was learning the technique
of the game from the clever Tommy,
but an accident to a shoulder put him
in storage for time, so he came
home where he was appreciated, serving
as sheriff Of his county for several
terms.

entitled When Reformers Fall Out"
Brewster and Corcoran in the past
have been determined foes of the
power trust Brewster fought the
power interests in Maine. where he
was Governor and where he sought
repeatedly and unSuccessfully to be
elected Senator. That was in the
days when Samuel insult was all
powerful in the utilities business.
Corcoran Assigned to Help.
Corcoran was assigned to help work
out the plans for the Passamaquoddy
Dam for the production of electric
power through operation of the tides
and also to help in the fight to put
through the administrations public
utility holding company bill.
Brewster and Corcoran went along
together. 1t was developed during the
hearing, on the drive for the Passama-
quoddy Dam, q project which is to cost
$50 ,00o, 900 and is located in Brewsters
district in Maine.
The split came over Brewster's fail
ure to speak for or vote for the death
sentence clause In the holding COM
pany bill.
Brewster, whose charges against
Corcoran, made on the floor of the
House, are responsible for the investi-
cation, was the first to take the stand
today. He sought to make it clear he
had been finally led to vote against
the President and the death sentence
clause in the holding company bill be-
cause:
First, his Anglo-Saxon instinct for
fair play demanded that innocent
stockholders in holding companies pe
not thrown to the lions.
Second, because Corcoran had
threatened, with brutal frankness,"
Just before the vote in the House was
taken, to do something about holding
up the Passamaquoddy Dam, unless
Brewster voted for the death sentence.
Replying to question from men,
Der Of the committee regarding what
he (Brewster) had said when Cor
coran had made this threat, the
Maine Representative said:

In q long recital OF instances de-
signed to support his charges OF graft.
fraud, ineficiency and failure in the
island administration. Yates testified
the Governor had sought TO have pre-
pared list OF charges involving Nor
ris Davis, whom he identified as an
nti-Pearson "agitator." and put them
out as a newspaper story under Yates
name. The witness said he refused
to do It.
He accused Pearson Of trying to in
1uence a correspondent of the New
York Times against sending articles
detrimental to Parsons regime. add
ing that Pearson succeeded in having
a member OF the Colonial Council
appointed In the correspondents stead.
although the man was later replaced
by the Times.
Yates said Pearson threatened an
editor OF the principal anti-admini-
stration newspaper, the Emancipator,
with prosecution for libel. He de-
clined to say under questioning wheth-
or he thought any Emancipation articles
were libelous.
Yates also alleged that part of the
Federal relief food sent to the Islands
found its way to the British Island
OF Tortola in the Virgin group.
The food distribution was one of
the worst features in the islands, he
said.
Hundreds complained to me per-
sonally they we're unable to secure
food. They complained it was being
diverted to Tortols.'
He added that many residents of
the British island were employed on
Federal public works on the United
States islands.
Espionage System Charged.
Senate investigators have been told
that Gov. Pearson employed an es-
pionage system against his political
enemies.
The accusation was made by Yates,
in support Of charges Of corruption,
neglect and failure in the island ad
ministration.
In his testimony against Pearson,
Yates said yesterday
He told me he had ways Of getting
letters from his enemies. He said
Catholic fathers were among the
worst of his enemies on the islands,
He led me to believe he had an es-
pionage system which would uncover
all base things against him"

Wheeler, he added, asked him to keep
in touch with Brewster on that point.
Brewster. Corcoran said, told him
that ION this holding company bill
I've got White under obligation" and
that White can't be reelected with
out a trade of votes in the next cleo
ton.
He quoted Brewster as saying, IF
you have any trouble, just let me
know
The committee adjourned until to-
morrow morning after Corcoran con-
cluded his reply to Brewster with a
statement that the Maine Republican
had made his charges in a press re-
lease carefully prepared before he went
on the floor Of the House.
Corcoran told the committee ne
would be glad to undergo any cross
examination or to have it allow Brew
ster and himself to eross-examine each

MARTIAL LAW ENDS

the dam after it had been completed
by the Federal Government. The
point made by Corcoran was that the
Government might have found it had
put $36,000,000 into this project and
on its completion was unable to dis
pose of the power.
When Corcoran found, he said, that
Brewster was not going to speak for
the death sentence clause or vote for
it. he felt that he could not trust
Brewster to carry out his pledges re-
garding the Passamaquoddy project.
The story told by Corcoran was to the
effect that Brewster had been very
friendly to the death sentence clause
when the supporters Of that clause
had invited him to meeting to dis
cuss a plan of battle. He insisted that
in the end, however, Brewster had
declined to sign letter supporting
the holding company bill because it
mentioned Senator Hastings.
Spoke "With Emphasis"
"You can't expect me to say any,
thing about Hastings" Corcoran
quoted Brewster as saying. "for Hast
irgs controls the money for the Re
publican campaign" Corcoran said
he had fully expected Brewster would
speak in the House UNFOLDING the
death sentence clause and when he
became convinced that Brewster
would not do so, he admitted he spoke
with considerable emphasis.
Hint Supporting Witnesses.
Both Brewster and Corcoran left the
impression with the committee that
witnesses could be called in support OF
their statements. Corcoran's final shot
at Brewster was that he had told
Brewster:
"You know I can't trust you to keep
your pledges in regard to the Passa-
maquoddy dam now"
Corcoran said Brewster had replied:
81 know it" and had added. would
it be all right If duck back and do
not vote?"
81 said that I didn't care what he
did" sand Corcoran.
It was at this point that Brewster
exploded, shouting: ..
you're a iar!"

a double-crosse governed only by a
desire to protect his political fences
The story he told of Brewsters con-
versation at the time the threat
was supposed to have been made
brought from Brewster an impulsive

1t was on this note that the hearing
ended today. with the understanding
that the committee would resume

Acted Under Instructions.
Corcoran told his story of his deal
,ngs with Brewster swiftly and with
dramatic force.
When Corcoran admitted to the
committee he had been working at
the Capitol in the interest of the
death sentence and the whole public
utility holding company bill, he said
anything he had done had been under
the obstruction Of Chairman Wheeler
Committee and Of Chairman Rayburn
Of the House Interstate and Foreign
Commerce Committee.
Brewster, in his testimony said he
had been asked by Corcoran to urge
Senator White of Maine not to vote
on the death sentence" clause when
the holding company bill was before
the Senate. Brewster said that he
gave this message to Senator White
who like himself is Republican. The
idea was that Corcoran had been ex-
ceedingly helpful in getting the Passa-
maquoddy project through for the
State of Maine.
Versions Differ.
It was a very different aspect which
Corcoran gave this White incident in
his testimony. He insisted that Sena-
tor Wheeler had told him that Brew
ster had said to him CWheeler) that
he could handle" White in the Senate
committee.
So, according to Corcorsn. Senator
Wheeler told him to keep in touch
with Brewster and see what could be
done with Senator White. When the
time came, Corcoran said, he Sug-
gested that Brewster take the matter
up with White.
Corcoran said Brewster had said
I've got White under obligations to
me. He will nee1 votes in my district
when he comes up for election again. n
Naturally. I went to Brewster,
continued Corcoran.
The story told by Brewster and
Corcoran regarding Their common eff
fort to push along the Passamaquoddy
project differed in some respects
Brewster said he had brought two
attorneys down from Maine at the
request Of Corcorsl to talk over GER
tain legal aspects o: the project. Cor
coran, on the other hand, left the
impression that it was Brewster who
had insisted upon having this Maine
legal talent and that Brewster had
paid their expenses.
Raises Suit Aspects.
Time and again Corcoran told the
committee Brewster had given him
promises that he, Brewster, would
guarantee to handle the Maine Rspub-
lican Legislature and also prevent any
antagonistic suits being filed against
the Passamaquoddy project.
1t was on the basis of these guar
antees, Corcoran said, that final de-
cision to go ahead with the Quoddy
project had been made. Had 1t not
would have been made to have the
Maine Legislature provide for q
