down there without trial experi

market is going wild.” Earlier Wheeler drew from Emerson_an admission” that he had never tried a case involving examination of witnesses. Tells of 1943 Deal Wheeler referred to a deal he said was made in 1943 by other OPA officials with Harry T. Brundige of Cosmopolitan - magazine who, seeking an expose, had worked himself into the black market " posing as a representative of New York night clubs. Wheeler said Brundidge successfully contacted black marketeers in Kansas City who agreed to sell him, as a night club representative, “from 800,000 to 1,000,000 pounds of meat a week, at far above ceiling prices.” Two OPA men were detailed to pose also as meat-hungry night-|’ clubbers, and arrest the black marketeers when the first cash payment was made, Wheeler said. ‘Left High and Dry’ But, hé added, Emerson hauled the two OPA men off a train. in New York as they were about to start for their rendezvous in Chicago with Brundidge. Wheeler said Brundidge was “left high and dry in the Blackstone hotel.” Emerson admitted that he had called off the trip. ‘He said “we had all the information” and “we didn't want to take part if a phoney deal.” He also said former Price Administrator Prentiss Brown had agreed with his decision.
