The Federal Surplus Commodities Corp, which invented it, may: yet find itself in the position of a man who has a bear by the tail. Consider, for instance, the figures from Rochester, N.

She sure has followed this column.

Magnates Not So Dumb

Screen actors and screen players lean decidedly to progressive views in politics ,and economics. undoubted fact has been derided by many and set down as merely the latest foible and fashion of the screen folk. That is less than fair. It is not a new growth but a well-rooted state of opinion. it so that the men and women who have thrown themselves: wholeheartedly into the trade union movement for their own interests and for the interests of others are a humorless and fanatical crowd which has outgrown its sense of humor—if, indeed, it ever possessed any. And the proof of this lies in the names of those whose services are chiefly in demand. Undoubtedly many of the magnates would like it very much to be done with doing business with the more progressive artists. Tams cats are easier to deal with than less domesticated i dines. But the magnates are not nearly as dumb as they have been pictured. People who can be had for a broom and an apple or a fishhead and a bowl of cream are not the folk who take the best pictures. The so-called wildmen of Hollywood in many instances are doing very well, because they have a capacity which is more vital than those of a decade

companies were beginning ' to weary of the rate fight. So Charles R. Street, vice president of a committee representing all the interested companies, went to Kansas City for a round-table conference with O'Malley. was accompanied by R. J. Folonie, his lawyer. A. L. MecCormack, a St. Louis insurance broker, sat in on that conference. In less than one full working day, a compromise settlement was reached. It provided that 50 per cent of the impounded $9,-

the insurance companies, 20 per cent to be distributed to policy holders, and 30 per cent to be set aside in a trust fund with Street and Folonie as trustees. The trust fund was to be used to pay lawyers’ fees and various expenses. The remainder, if any, was to go to the insurance companies. . The deal finally got the court’s approval. And soon the whisperings began. Rumors of a big fee reached Elmer Lincoln Irey, soft spoken chief of the Treasury's Intelligence unit, who not many years before prepared the case that sent Al Capone to Alcatraz. Irey, curious to know whether the Federal Government was getting its full share of taxes, ordered his men to work.

2 # 2 ) IGHT from the beginning, the investigators suspected that the deal couldn't have been put across without Boss Pendergast’s blessing. Quietly, they began to look into his affairs. Then came the lucky break. An Internal Revenue Agent made a routine examination of the books of Folonie’s law firm in Chicago. He discovered that on May 9, 1935, Charles R. Street—the insurance settlement negotiator—had delivered to the law partnership 14 checks totaling $100,500. These checks came from several insurance companies, were indorsed and deposited in the partnership bank account. The same day, the books showed, the partnership issued three checks to Street; two for $50,000 each and one for $500. An Intelligence Unit agent questioned Street about the $100,500. , “ Street said he had handed it to a person “high in the political ranks of Missouri, but not a public official.” Then he decided he had talked too much and refused to say another thing. The agent left Street with the stern reminder that he was dealing with the U. S. Government. Apparently mindful of the agent’s warning, Street wrote him on May 4, 1936: “Leaving for South Dakota. On my return next week will take a run to Missouri on business anyway—and see what they have to say. Don’t think can do anything at least before the Queen Mary comes in.” The Queen Mary? The agent was puzzled. But not for long. The giant British superliner was to start on its maiden voyage from England within a few days. The passenger list was , checked and there among the P’s were the names—Mr. and Mrs. Thomas J. Pendergast. Irey’s men examined Pender-

silent. He appealed to the Internal

Revenue Bureau against the penalty and the matter dragged along still unsettled when he died on Feb. 1, 1938. Then the agents checked Street’s bank accounts.

McCormack had been overlooked by the investigators. But the discovery of the cancelled checks sent them prying into his affairs. McCormack offered no help.

The agents soon discovered that

beginning in May, 1935, the month rate settlement, and through to September, 1936, McCormack had handled at least $87,500 in cash. He explained that the cash represented savings over a long period of years. It was an unconvincing explanation. It spurred the Treasury agents to go still deeper into his past life. They rooted out every financial transaction he had made since he was old enough to write his name.

The agents decided to let McCormack alone for a while; to let him stew into tractabliity. Then

“they thought it was time for an-

other look at Pendergast. This time ‘they found that he was heavily in debt in 1934, largely because of his consistently bad luck in horse race betting. But during 1935 and 1936, it developed, he

debts. And he paid in cash. Telegraphic money orders to debtor New York and New Jersey bookmakers were found. All this was interesting but not evidence, - ann : T was now time to turn attention to McCormack again. The agents hoped the six months he had dangled in uncertainty might loosen his tongue. Their hopes were fulfilled. *

McCormack, according to the Treasury’s confidential files, admitted he was the “pay-off” man in the insurance scandal and he named Pendergast as the master mind. Here his story is taken down by Treasury agents. On Jan. 13, 1935, McCormack met O'Malley in the Coronado Hotel, St. Louis. During a conversation, O'Malley casually suggested that the insurance companies might like to settle the rate controversy. McCormack re-

. plied affirmatively. When O’Mal-

ley asked how much the companies would pay “someone” to settle, McCormack replied he would have to talk to Street in Chicago. O'Malley authorized McCormack to tell Street that Tom Pendergast was the “someone”—the man to see. Two days later, on Jan. 15,1935, McCormack met Street in Chicago. He related his conversation with O'Malley, and Street said he wanted to talk to Pendergast. . A few days later, Pendergast was Chicago-bound. He went to McCormack’s suite in the Palmer House. Street was there. He wasted no words, recounted the trouble the rate litigation had caused the insurance companies and wanted to know whether Pendergast could settle the whole thing. Big Tom said it could be arranged. Street then wanted to know how much it would cost. Pendergast insisted on an offer.

' Street suggested $200,000. That

mack met Street on March 28, 1935, and found him worried. The urance companies believed Street should have offered more than $500,000, according to McCormack’s story to the Government, although there was no evidence that the companies knew what was being done with the money. McCormack recalled that Pendergast happened to be in Chicago. He arranged a meeting between Pendergast and Street in the Stevens Hotel.: There Street said he felt Pendergast should have $750,000 for his trouble. The “boss” said it was o. k. It developed later that Pendergast was paid only $430,000. Treasury agents explained that the $750,000 figure apparently was just “conversation” which was not lived up to in performance. So : McCormack was summoned to Chicago on May 8, 1935. There Street gave him $50,000 in cash and directed him to deliver it to Pendergast. McCormack flew to Kansas City and handed the cash first installment of the “payoff’—to. Pendergast in the. boss’ Pendergast kept it all. i The agreement, providing for distribution of the impounded

insurance premiums was com-

pleted and signed between May 14 and May 18, less than a fortnight after Pendergast received the $50,000. On May 20, McCormack was called back to Chicago. Street gave him another $50,000 for delivery to Pendergast. This time Pendergast counted out $5000 for himself; $22,500 for McCormack and $22,500 for O'Malley. McCormack was told to deliver O’Malley’s share.

The Court approved the :com-

promise agreement on Feb. 1, 1936, and freed the impounded funds. A few days later Street telephoned McCormack and told him to be in Chicago on April 1. ” ”® ” JV] Cormack kept the appointment on April 1, 1936. He went to Street’s office. Street gave him $330,000 in cash. He stuffed the money into a Gladstone bag and headed back to Kansas City by train. He taxied to Pendergast’s home at 5650 Ward Parkway. There the bag was opened and the portly boss personally split the cash—$40,000 for McCormack, $40,000 for O’Malley and the rest for himself

Those were the essential details of McCormack’s story to the Federal Grand Jury which returned indictments against Pendergast and O'Malley orf April 7 this year. On May 22, Pendergast pleaded guilty and was sent to the Federal Penitentiary for a year and

three months and fined $10,000. O'Malley pleaded guilty five days.

later and was sentenced to a year and a day and fined $5000.
