YMPIA-Gov. Arthur b.
Langlie said Tuesday the state had
no checks made out by the North
west News Co, horse-racing re-
suits firm, TO Congressman Warren
G. Magnuson but since that official
had admitted receiving money the
governor issued a statement on his
stand.
The governor revealed that
state Investigators do have
checks paid to Mr.. Magnuson by
the same party that paid large
sums to Mr.. Gottstein and Mr..
Edris" Gottstein is head Of Long
acres race track and Edris Is
prominent Seattle socialite.
Since Mr.. Magnuson has
opened the subject we wish to
make our position clear" the
governor said. cit was not
our intention to make this In
formation available either
through the press, radio or by
word of mouth. In the past
few days word leaked out from
the bookmaking sources that
among the checks taken from
them by the state investigators
were checks paid to Mr.. Mag
nuson.
Two Seattle newspapers con-
tacted our office and asked If we
cared to make an announcement
regarding the Magnuson checks.
We refrained from even admitting
that these checks were in our pos
session and explained that even If
there were such checks they would
not be made public prior to the
election but would be held until
such time as became necessary in
the course of the investigation, if
ever.
TT was my conclusion in with
holding this information regarding
the Magnuson checks, that a dis
closure would tend to undermine
the confidence of the people In
their elective officials at this time
when public confidence is neces-
sary to the welfare of the nation"

Monopoly Charge
Denied by AP

NEW YORK-In an answer to
the federal governments antitrust
suit, the Associated Press Tuesday
denied that II Is a monopoly and
argued that a government victory
in the suit would abridge the free
dom of the press.
The 7.00o-word answer was filed
In the federal court for the south
ern district Of New York where
the department of justice on Aug.
Is began q civil action against the
news service and its board of direc-
tors, charging that the APPS by
laws. limiting its membership. were
Illegal.
ZAP has never monopolized or
attempted to monopolize the col
lection or distribution of news"
the answer said. The sources OF
news are as freely open to anyone
or everyone who may desire access
to them as they are TO the AP."
II was pointed out that the gov
eminent suit was instituted shortly
after the AP had rejected an appli-
cation for service from the Chi

which several thousand Washing
ton investors were separated from

Junk Pile Never Sold
TO Japs, Declares
Man Who Collected It

Again calling your atten-
ton to- the big junk pile be-
side the railroad at Seeley :,
Charles M. Davis, salvage
dealer at National City tele-
phoned the Post-Press Monday that
he collected that great mass OF
metal three years ago for the Beth
lehem Steel company and piled it
beside the railroad for the steel
company to transport to its plants
Il never have sold any junk to
the Japs and anyone who says |
did is liar" Davis said.
And don't worry about the gov
ernment getting that scrap piled ur
at Seele% The War Production board
bought it from the company and it
now is in charge of the Special
Products section
Davis was boiling over with rage
because he believed he had been ac-
cuSed of selling junk to the Japs.
And another thing" said Davis
continuing his boiling, the railroad
ISM SUING anyone 10 get Cne JUNK
moved. We had lease on the land
where the junk is piled and we
paid the rent in advance"
This is the second version of the
past and present of that annoying
pile of scrap metal at Seeley. The
first one was that the junk was col
lected to be sold to the Japs but
the order preventing such sale held
it frozen at Seeley, or, we should
say, sweltering at Seeley.
Government officials congratu-
lated me for collecting that junk in
Imperial Valley" Davis declared.
II foresaw shortage and if l had :
MT collected it, that junk would
have been lost instead of being
available to the war effort today"
