(Continued from Page 1.)

(Continued from Page 1) bill of complaint or file plea for dismissal.
 Many Activities
 Activities of and about the com mittee, headed by Senator. Hugo Black, D., Ala, spread over three fronts: In district court, attorneys for William Randolph Hearst charg- ed the committee with "'stealthy" and 1mpertinent prying into pri- vate affairs" and demanded an in- junction to prevent examination of the publishers telegrams. At the capitol, committee members fore saw difficulties in winning house approval of it's request for $10,000 to continue their investigation. At the senate office building, the commit tee took up the activities of Cru saders, Inc.
 Crusaders Care
 Ruddy-cheeked, dapper Fred C.. Clark, national commander of Cru saders, denied that the organization was engaged in lobbying. We are trying to clarify public thinking on national issues," we said. We op- pose 2ll destructive forces and ev- erything that would make the gov- ernment master of the people" !" Going into the financing of the Crusaders activities, Sen. Ernest w. Gibson, R., Vt., presiding, produced a telegram which had been sent C, CT Clark's name on March II, 1885, to list of prominent men in- cluding Bernard w. Baruch, Sewell Avery, William Woodward, James P. Warburg, Alfred P. Sloan, Jr., Ogden Mills, John w. Davis and Winthrop Aldrich.
 List of Contributors
 The committee emphasized that contributions for support of the Crusaders came from many wealthy men also contributing to the Amer ican Liberty League. A committee read into the record list of con- tributor3 after Clark denied the Crusaders had any connection with LIIC LlDCl " 1CuB uC. 4IlC lloL WuD compiled from questionnaires sent out by the committee and checked against records of the Crusaders. It included:

 Lammot Dupont, Crusaders, $1,- 900; American Liberty League $l0,- 000
 E. F. Hutton, New York, Crusad- CTS, $5000; American Liberty League, $10000.

WOOL MARKET

Boston, April 8-(UP) -- Quota tions on western-grown domestic wools in Boston were purely nom- inal as result of a lack of demand, according to today's report of the U. s. Agriculture department.
 The undertone, of the market however, was weak as there was not even the occasional purchase for urgent immediat requirements that helped to maintain quotations on an even keel two to three weeks ago. Houses that had carried over limited quantities of old wools were willing to consider offers that were below recent asking prices.

SEMINARY FIRE
 DID BIG DAMAGE
St. Johns at Brighton Gutted Today; Priests
 Students Escape

Boston, April 9-(UP)-A four alarm fire swept the four-story brick philosophy building at St. Johns seminary, Brighton. early today.
 More than 35 student-residents attending mass in the chapel and five priests were driven out. Fire Chief Henry Fox suffered should CT injury when he slipped and fell from the third to the second floor.
 Near Home Of Cardinal
 Only 300 feet away was the resi- dence of William Cardinal O'Con- nell, Catholic archbishop of Boston. The fire started in a fourth-floor room near the chimney, and spread rapidly to other sections of the building, housing classrooms and dormitory quarters. The Rev Eric F. Mckenzie had just begun mass for the seminarians. All fled, but returned to rescue possessions until stopped by firemen. Other priests residing in the seminary included the Rev. Francis s. Shea. the Rev Timothy O'Connell, the Rev. Mat thew Stapleton and the Rev. Fran eis D. McGuiness.
 Deputy Recovers Box
 An unidentified deputy chief groped through smoke-filled cor riders to the fourth-flood room of Father Shea and recovered an iron box, believed to contain Sistine choir music from Rome and other papers. Shortly before the fourth alarm was sounded, the steeple and cross atop the building collapsed. Newton firemen joined Boston crews in fighting the flames. Dam sge may reach $100,000, according to church and fire officials. Valu- able papers, paintings and books were destroyed.
