Bernard Baruch. The fact that Ba

as one of the lew political coin

Antoher coincidence was the fact
that certain influential market Inter

several sound money propaganda mills
at about the same time.
Mr. Roosevelt knew nearly a week
in advance that the Baruch and
Bprague explosions were coming.
That is the explanation of his Sa-

shoot at him. Also one of xne prime
reasons why No. 1 man Morgenthau
started reorganizing the treasury de

E MAGNATE
FORCED TO SELL
CONTROLHE SAYS
Hoover Administration Hostile-
Declares Chain The
ater Head in Senate
Banking Committee Quiz
By NAT H AX ROBERTSON
Associated Press Staff Writer
WASHINGTON, Not. 23. (AP)
Testimony that be had gone straight
to President Hoover and other high
Republican officials in his unsuccess
ful effort to retain control of his
vast movie holdings was given the
senate banking committee today by
William Pox.
The former theater magnate testi
fied .he was "forced unded duress"
by bankers to sell control of his chain
of 100 movie houses which he had
developed from a single nickelodeon
In Brooklyn.
Before purchasing controlling stock
In Loew's, Inc., in 1028, the witness
said he conferred with Wm. J. Don
ovan, former assistant attorney gen
eral, to learn whether the justice de
partment would object.
Alarmed Later
He said he was Informed later by
the attorney general's office It would
be "All right' for him to' buy the
stock.
When Hoover was Inaugurated, Pox
added, he became alarmed at what
he called the hostile attitude of the
new administration. He had expect
ed Donovan to be named attorney
general, he said, but Instead that
post went to William D. Mitchell.
"I was told by a friend there was
a man by the name of Claudius Hus
ton, who might be able to help," Pox
said.
He added that he subsequently
conferred with Huston, then chair
man of the Republican national com
mittee, and the late James Francis
Burke, then general counsel.
Token to Hoover
"I asked to see the president and
talk to him about the matter' Pox
continued. He said he took his trou
bles to Mr. Hoover at a White House
luncheon.
Hoover told him, Pox related, that
he needed no Intermediaries such as
Huston, and that ,he needed only to
send word to his attorney general at
the department of Justice If his story
was true. ,
A few days later, he added, Huston
and Burke called on him In New
York and suggested It would "pay"
to have a talk with Louis B. Mnyer
or California.
"They suggested I have a talk
with Mayer, who was head of the
Republican organization In Califor
nia," Fox salt!.
He added that Mayer had a con
tract with Loew's and was wondering
about Its future under the Fox man
agement. Mayer felt he should have
participated In the profits' from the
Loew sale, Fox added.
Senator Adams (D Colo.) asked If
Huston and Burke were employed as
attorneys.

The sheriff's office and state police

LOS ANGELES, Nov. 33. (AP)
After destroying numerous small
cabins and some larger homes In the
northern section of Tujunga and Im
perilling scores of fire fighters, a
stubborn forest fire veered away from
the little foothill town 20 miles north
of here and apparently left It safe
today. Most of the population had
evacuated It.
Estimates of the number of cabins
and houses destroyed ran as high as
ISO, but fire righting offtclala said
there was no way of accurately check-
log the number until later.
Three Million Damage.
Damage to the valuable foothill
watershed, Including loss of homes,
was estimated at possibly $3,000,000.
Nearly 100 county unemployment
relief workers were reported at va
rious times last night to have been
trapped In a canyon, but a motor
cycle officer said today he esw them
scurry to safety.
The foothill boulevard wae closed
to public traffic as the flames were
licking across It, and firemen were
forced to run a red gauntlet In bring
ing In their reports.
The fire could be seen plalnty from
Los Angeles, a dull. red glow shadow

San Fernando valley, giving that sec
tion the appearance of a snow storm

strong wind, slowly fell earthward.

TO PAY PERSONAL
BILLS FOR FEHL
A number of unpaid bills be
queathed to the county, court from
the Earl H. Fehl administration were
presented yesterday to the county
court for payment and were disal
lowed, or held In abeyance. The
bills were contracted last May and
June, and a portion of July, for
gasoline, telephone and telegraph.
A bill for 9106.06 for Fehl's salary
for the month of July was not acted
upon as the stat of Oregon has filed
a claim against It for expenses of
Fehl's trial In Klamath county. It
cannot be paid until the decision of
the court is given.
The last of the bills for gasoline
was presented yesterday, the county !
court refusing to take any action
until an itemized account waa made, I
The gasoline was charged to "Judge I
Fehl" for the months of May and
June and ft portion of April, it
amounted to 70.0B, snd was for oil
auto gas which at the rate of IB
miles to the gallon shows the former
official traveled 6000 miles In his
auto, which the count court yholda
"was going some." -
It Is figured that the county
Judge's office gasoline bills for the
first six months' of this yenr will
set a record. The clerk's office re
ports that on the face of bills pre
sented to date It will average 930 to
3ft per month.
The Western Union Telegraph Co.
agAln presented a bill for $3.50 which
the county court again declined to
pay. One of the Items la 41.37 for
a telegram sent by the "Oood Gov
ernment Congress," to Congress
man James W. Mott at Washington,
D. C, la.e In February. The other

H. Von Schmalr, to Burns, Ore. At

no concern of the county.
A telephone bill of 96.00 Is in the
course of pruning to strictly county
business. All telephone calls of Fehl
to his attorney, A. O. Hough of
Grants Pass, will be disallowed. Simi
lar calls to Sheriff Hess of Coos
