Million for Defense Funds for Hains and Jenkins
New York Aug 24 A fund of 1 100 000 is being raised among United States army officers to defend Captain Peter Hains Jr and Thornton Jenkins. The drive started last week with officers of Fartous forte calling on General Hains and pledging sympathy. John F. McIntyre says he can prove the Bayside Yacht Club deal involved not William E. Annis, as claimed, but Thornton Hains negotiating to buy Bayside property weeks before the tragedy. He cites forthcoming witnesses, including a Bayside real estate agent, to test that claim.
