Strange Case Of Leaking Roof Told At Senate Probe Of "Five Percenters"
WASHINGTON. Aug. 10(P
Paul Grindle, New England manu
facturer, told senators Mondax
about the strange case ( the leak
ing roof at the Foxboro trotting
track clubhouse and what caus
ed It.
The track, located 19 miles
from Boston, was built during
1946-47 with what Grindle describ
ed a $15,000 worth of help from
James V. Hunt of Washington,
key figure in the senate's "five
percenter" investigation.
Grindle, one of the opening wit.
nessea before the senate investi
gating committee, said Hunt told
him his story of how he helped
get the track built:
Paul Bowser of Boston, presi
dent of the track, went to Hunt
for help in getting the then-required
government okay. Hunt
went to Frank Creedon, then
housing expediter now with the
Hanford. Wash., atomic plant,
and Creedon told him what to do
about "getting around regula
tions." The "loophole" was that a
building could be moved onto a
site and housing officials would
approve alternations for it. So at
Koxboro some small buildings
were moved to the track site and
remodeled into a single building
for a clubhouse.
But Boston housing officials,
when they Inspected the job, de
eded the (rack had gone too far
lutside regulations. So they or
tered the buildings separated by
-utting three two-foot slots across
he structure.
This let in the sky and the rain.
Jowser protested. He notified
Hunt of what had happened and
Hunt, again went to Creedon.
Creedon called the Boston office
y telephone and demanded to
tnow if they were trying to make
lim "the laughing stock of the
untry."
Boston officials told Creedon
;he slots already had been cut,
md it would cost too much to plug
them.
Grindle, a Framingham, Mass.,
manufacturer, never did get
around to saying whether the
slots had been covered over. He
did say Hunt told him he collect
ed a $15,000 fee from the track.
