Forte Gets 1-3 Years
In War Surplus Fraud

Anthony J. Forte. 36, OF Fair
mont. w. Va, was sentenced to
jail terms totaling one to three
years yesterday on charges of
false pretense in connection with
the sale Of power equipment.
District Court Judge Henry A.
Schweinhaut sentenced Forte to
two terms. to run concurrently. on
charges involving about $4,000.
One charge accused Forte of ac-
cepting two checks for $4,000
each from Paul A. Garbart of
Uniontown. Pa. in payment for
equipment Forte said he had pur-
chased from the War Assets Ad-
ministration.
Forte also was accused of hav-
ing received a check for about
$4,000 from a representative of
the Medico Electric Motor Co..
Inc. Of Pittston. Pa, In payment
for a power shovel and four bull
dozers he represented he owned.
The defendant had pleaded
guilty to both charges.
Another case against Forte and
two others. charging them with
false pretenses in the sale of a
power shovel for $66. 900. recently
was dismissed. The other two de-
PENDANTS were Dominic S. Fago.
36. of Buffalo. N. Y. and Jack
Quigley. Al. Of Pittsburgh.
In that case. the three were ac-
cused Of representing Forte false
ly as the owner of the shovel and
indicating falsely that it was free
of liens. Assistant United States
Attorney A. ]. Mclaughlin said
the latter case was dismissed be-
cause the Pennsylvania concern
that paid for the shovel has been
and did not wish to
prosecute.
Still another case was dismissed
against Forte and his brother.

get a guaranteed loan under the
provisions of the CT Bill?
A: No. Benefits of the CT Bill,
Public Law 346, are for World
War II veterans only.
@: What is the largest amount
i can borrow under the provis-
ions of the CT Bill and still have
the loan guaranteed?
A:There is no limit to the
amount which can be borrowed
under the CT Bill. The limita-
ton by law is on the amount of
the government guaranty and
not on the amount of the loan.
