Testifying under crdss-exam-ination in the trial of eight as sociates charged with extorting $1,000,000 from the picture in dustry, Bioff told the federal court Jury that Schenck, former board chairman ot i-wenueu Century-Fox Film Corp., was in nocent ot any wrong doing. .

Surface Friend 1 would have, but I was under indictment for income tax evasion in California," Bioff said. "I couldn't afford to." was Joseph Schenck your friend? Murray asked. "On the surface," Bioff said. and then added gratuitously: I was - a low type person; people of my character just ; don t do nice things. ' - Murray asked the witness If he was "trying to convince the juryi you are an unmoral monster?" 'I'm a much more charitable I person than you are, Mr. Mur ray, and I can prove it," Bioff retorted.
