Captain Wool Denies Bribes For Contracts Air Force Captain Denies Charges Os $50,000 In Bribes WASHINGTON (INS) — Senators investigating charges of graft in military uniform contracts faced a new maze of contradictions today. The probe was thrown into further confusion Wednesday when an air force captain flatly denied allegations that he received $50,000 in bribes. Chairman John L. McClellan (D-Ark.) of the senate investigations subcommittee, recessed hearings until Friday, when the officer, Capt Raymond Wool of Shelby, Ohio, will be recalled to the stand. McClellan said his group will ask Wool "about specific 4 payments" ranging from 1200 to $60,000 which other witnesses have testified he received. Wednesday, Wool denied under oath that he had received any money in bribes. Wool, a former procumement officer, was in charge of a contract awarded in 1963 to Harry Lev, of Chicago, for 6,823,000 white sailor' hats at a total cost of more than |2 million. At the time, Wool was with the armed services textile and apparel procurement agency in New York. The agency purchased uniforms for all branches of the armed service in 1962-53. Leon Levy of New York has charged that after Lev underbid him and took Marvin Rubin, his business procurer, away from him. Lev gave Wool $50,000. Wool’s reply: "I never got $50,000 . . I didn’t get anything.” However, wool readily admitted defrauding the government with false income tax returns on a dress shop he and his wife operated from 1951 to 1953 in Madison, N. J. He made the admission in expaining some $13,000 in cash he paid on a house and deposited in a bank in a five month period of 1953. He said it “came out of a box'* which he and his wife kept their money in at home. Part of the money got there, he said, ant the amount saved on income taxes. McClellan asked: “You defrauded' the government?" Wool replied: "Yes, sir.” Wool also said he borrowed $9,000 from Patsy Luciano. But Luciano, a burly grocer, denied this, He also denied getting $5,000 as a part repayment from Mrs. Wool and tearing up a note for the money. Wool said he had. Mrs. Wool’s name and the sum of $5,000 also were linked by Levy, who said that Lev gave Mrs. Wool that amount as a down payment on the $50,000 for Wool. The captain said this was untrue. Wool testified that he didn’t know about the $6,000 his wife used to pay Luciano because it came from a secret legacy from her late father. But Wool also reported that his wife didn’t know that he had from $9,000 to SII,OOO in cash of his own at home. He expressed surprise when subcommittee chief counsel Robert F. Kennedy disclosed that Mrs. Wool said at a closed session that she considered even SI,OOO "too much to keep lying around.” McClellan dourly remarked: “You realise, this is a pretty strange situation.” Union Trustee Will Undergo Operation f Fred Bittner, Union township trustee, will go to St. Joseph's hospital, Fort Wayne, Monday, where he will undergo a kidney operation. The well known Adams county man has been ill for some time. Attending physicians say he will be confined in the hospital about 10 days or two weeks.

FBI Head Defends Informants' Use Informants Vital To U. 5. Security WASHINGTON (INS) — FBI director J. Edgar Hoover declared today that confidential informants are vital to the nation’s security. The FBI chief, speaking out sharply against growing criticism of using such informers in law enforcement, said: “To surrender one of our most potent weapons at thia cHtlcal time is to invite, destruction.” Hoover, ih a message written for the June issue of the FBI Law Enforcement Bulletin, made these points: - 1. -Experience demonstrates that the cooperation of individualß who can readily fprnish accurate information is essential if law enforcement is to discharge its obligations." 2. “The criminal and subversive underworld has long sought to destroy our effective informant system. Nothing could possibly render more aid to the enemy than the premature and unwarranted disclosure of these vital sources of information." The top G-Man added that the appearance of an informant in a court of law is "certainly a most logical time" for revealing his identity. In a crisply written argument. Hoover laid down this premise: "Throughout the history of civilized society, grave responsibility for the welfare of nations and peoples has rested in good law enforcement.” He pointed out that “the objective of the investigator must be to ferret out the truth.” Canteloupe, 4 for SI.OO.
