Probers Seek New Evidence In Boyle Finance Case
Washington reporters reveal four new clues in the Senate inquiry into Democratic National Chairman William M. Boyle Jr. The committee seized Boyle’s bank records and subpoenaed St Louis bookkeeper Jeanette Boone. It plans to question Republican chairman Guy Gabrielson on RFC dealings next week. Witness Theodore Link admitted he had no personal knowledge of the story but claimed reliable sources and declined to name them. Senator Clyde Hoey urged sources to testify. Link said Boyle allegedly received kickbacks via Lithofold payments. Boyle denied any such fees since April 1949. A St Louis staffer will question Tony Gilroy of Lithofold about payment records.
