Steel Firm in Detroit,
Two Officers Indicted
As U. 5. Tax Dodgers
By the Assoeieied Press

DETROIT. Jan. "a Federal
grand jury has leveled a $500, ,ee0
income tax evasion charge
against a Detroit steel Arm and
two of its officers. whose opera
tions had been the target of two
congressional committees.
The indictments were returned
against the Lafayette Steel Co.
of Detroit; Leonard Friedman, it's
president. and Benjamin Gold
berg. its vice president and
secretary.
The Government charges cover
the calendar years of 1947 and
l948 for the tive men and the
fiscal years 1867 and 1915
for the corporation.
During Gray Market Period.
Assistant United States Attor-
ney Joseph A. Moynihan. jr.. said
the alleged tax evasions "oc-
Cured in the period of black and
gray market sales of steel"
Former United States Senator
Blair Moody was among the first
to draw attention to the Lafay-
cite Steel Co.'S operations. In
October. 1851. while a member Of
the Senate'S Small Business
Committee investigating gray
market operations in steel, Mr..
Moody said there was a million
dollar" Detroit tax case which he
limited was being kept out of
court by improper influence"
The company and its officers
denied the charge of improper
influence" Mr.. Moody then
turned the matter over to a
House committee which had
been probing reported graft in
the Bureau of Internal Revenue.
Given to U. S. Attorney.
The committee, headed by
Representative King. Democrat,
Of California, took no public ac-
ton in the case. but turned the
matter over to the United States
attorneys office in Detroit.
Federal officials In Detroit said
the tax investigation had been
completed here in 1850. The
King committee said the report
was held up in both the Chicago
and Washington Offices.
The criminal indictments
against the company and its two
top officers said the corporation
evaded $233,206 in income taxes:
Friedman. $301.0 .046, and Gold
berg $l25.152.

West Found Innocent
In Trial on Charge Of
School Tire Thefts

William C. Vest. 80. former
director of Arlington school
transportation. has been cleared
of a charge that he stole tires
from the school bus garage.
After a three-day trial. Cir
cult Judge Walter T. Mccarthy
yesterday found Vest innocent.
The Judge said there seemed to
be no doubt that school board
tires were stolen but "the gist
of this case Is just who did steal
them?"
Meanwhile. a grand jury IN
vestigating the school transpor-
tation system is in recess until
10 am. Monday.
Others May Be Involved.
Commonwealth's Attorney
William j. Hassan told Judge
Mccarthy yesterday that there
were indications that other per-
sons were involved in the tire
thefts.
Griffin T. Garnett. jr.. attor-
ney for Vest, said that records
presented at the trial showed
that, practically everybody in
the school board employ could
have done it because Of the way
! records were drawn and keys dis
tributed."
Judge Mccarthy said he did
not believe testimony implicat-
ing Vest given by Commonwealth
witnesses James P. Hefner, a
school bus driver, and Ray
Gregory, a school garage en-
ploye.
Mr.. Hassan referred to the
witnesses as "a rather sorry LOT
of individuals. But, he added
I'VE couldn't pick our witnesses
we found them" Mr.. HasSan in
sisted that, although there was
doubt as to details. there was nc
doubt that Vest, through Hefner
sold Il tires to a contractor for
$3.50 and Vest and Hefner split
the proceeds.
Signature Disputed.
The court heard defense testi-
mony that Vests name was
signed to receipts by some one
else and that Vest was out OF
town at the time he was alleged
to have participated in some OF
the tire transactions.
Vest denied that he had ever
sold school property to any one
Judge Mccarthy said that the
court was bound to consider that
Vest had pleaded guilty earlier
to a charge Of embezzlement. He
made the plea Tuesday and
Judge Mccarthy deferred SEN
fencing until next month.
Vest was fined $100 last month
when he pleaded guilty to illegal
use Of a State vehicle inspection
sticker issued to the garage fol-
use on school vehicles.
