bett, special investigator of Attor
ney General Keever, can find a
way to tell his chief someone has
been sending him SI,OOO bills, Cor
bett is palled upon by Keever to
investigate an anonymous tip that
a member of his staff is accepting
bribes, Corbett and a young law

to find the bribe taker and Cor

I Hiaished my story. Shellie
asked: w would anyone iry to
frame you
“Well, thanks for believing me.
I'm not quite sure anyone is, The
woman who called Keever didn’t
know my name, evidently, or she
would have passed it along. Could
be that somebody is making a
bona fide attempt to bribe me and
that the information slipped out.”
Shelton shrugged. “It could be
% clever way of framing you,
though. Someone may want you
out of the way. Not giving Keever
your mame might have been a
subtle way of convincing Keever
that the eall wasn't simply part of
plan to destroy his confidence in
I‘w_..
“Maybe. But T still like the idca
that whoever phoned Keever was
in dead ou'ngot and not the same
g:erson who has been sending me
e SIOOO bills.”
“I think the best thing would be
to go to Keever and put all your
pards on the table” Shelton
watched me worrledly.
1 shoop my head. “Keever would
think Lhad an acute case of frigid
feet, 'd gone to him before he
ggt the phone call, he might have
lleved me. But not now.”
Shelton's brow furrowed, and
gnally he eame up with: “Get rid
bt the money and the envelopes it
came In"
“Sound idea, but it's two-edged.
Someone may use that money to
grova a bribe attempt was made,
r it may come to gass that I'll be
the one to prove that point. Then
era will T be without the evi
ence? No, Shellie, I'm hanging
nto the four grand.”
The inter-office unit crackled
alive, Kay Kennedy said:
“M%Huvex wants {0 see you,

Paul Waring, first assistant at

Keever eyed me sourly, and 1
saw that he had a file open in
front of him,
“What's this T hear about the
McGregor case? Paul telis mg you
gave McGregor a clean bill of
health!”
w. G. McGre{;o,r wags the presi
dent and almost sole owner of the
McGregor Mutual Casualty Com
pany, an outfit specializing in
automobile accident insurance, The
state insurance division had de~
clared the company insolvent,
taken over the assets and started
liguidation.
I had investigated the criminal
aspect of McGregor’s activities,
with a view to persecution if he
had defrauded his stockholders and
policy holders. In a mutual com
pany a policy holder is as liable
as a stockholder for deficiency as
sessments, more so in many states,
McGregor and his daughter,
Sylvia, who had warked in his
office as his private secretary, had
lived frugal lives, taking no money
from the business and putting
every penny back into it. A series
of bad breaks had reduced their
resburces to a point where they
no longer could cover the out
standing liability claims resultant
from damage suits against their
assured.
By the state law the insurance
liquidator Colonel Winton auto
matically had taken over the
company when it fell short of the
minimum deposit requirement. So
far as I could see, W. G. McGregor
had gone broke simply because of
bad luck in having an abnormal
number of damage suits filed
against the people he had insured.
“Does Mr. Waring seem to think
that McGregor should be prose
cuted?” I asked innocently.
%I certainly do!” Waring said
with loud emphasis. “The record
shows that McGregor held back
for 30 days a complete report on
the number of outstanding dam
‘age suits! He deliberately violated
the law in doing so and permitted
scores of other veople to buy pol
icies of his company.”
Keever frowned. “It’s as serious
as for a bank cashier to accept de
posits after he knows that his bank
is insolvent. Why didn't you
mention this in your report?” |
“Because the! much was already
in Mr. Waring's report.” 1 an
swered cooly but with an under
tone of anger. |
8w |
Keever was not placated. “If
Mr. Waring had not come to me
with a vigorous protest I never
should have noticed your serious
omission. I don’t know how you
could have white-washed Me-
Gregor when he uniawfully soid
policies after he knew his com-~

pany was insolvent!”
“Sure, he knew it would be in
solvent if those buzzards in the
insurance division closed him
down! He was trying to stave off
collapse till he could scrape up
the required deposit. If he had
been given a little more time, he
might- have done it, and nobody
would have lost a nickel!”
Waring sneered. “Personally I
can’t believe Corbett’s naive the
ory that neither McGregor nor his
daughter ever took anything out
of the business. I'll bet my shirt
that they’ve both got plenty of
money salted away-—and plenty
to buy their way out of a jam!”
I faced Waring. “Are you say
ing McGregor bought me off?”
Waring returned my glare. “The
idea has occurred to me.”
* # #*
Vv
Keever gazed at me. I knew
that he would be wondering if
that anonymous phone call had
referred to me. I turned about
slowly. :
“Do you think I took McGre
gor’s money, boss?” :
,He stared at me for five full
seconds, then answered:
“You yourself suggested the use
of a frisk on bribe suspects.”
1 nodded, still looking him in
the eye.
“I'll submit to a frisk on the
spot. But I'm telling you that if
you believe Waring’s accusation
enough to humiliate me with that,
it’s the last job I'll ever do for
you!”
I hoped the cold sweat was con
fined to my spine. If Keever made
me submit to a frisk now, I had
in fact done my last job for him.
Keever finally answered after
what had seemed a geological era:
“No, Ben, I guess I can count
on you. It isn't the first time
you've permitted sentiment to in
fluence you foolishly. Be careful
after this, Other men, who don’t
know you as well as I do, might
get wrong ideas again.”
“You’'ll serve the warrant for
McGregor’s arrest,” Waring said
to me.
I started to go, then turned back.
“Just one more question, boss. Did
Durbin think up this idea?” I had
seen Dr. Durbin, state criminolo
gist, entering Keever’s office after
I left it earlier.
“It was my idea,” Waring spoke
up. “Durbin did say your report
had been in several days, and a
good thing he was on the job. If
‘we had slipped up, Colonel Win
ton would run to the governor and
you know what that would mean.”
I left the office positive Dur
bin’s visit to Keever had some
thing to do with the heat being
put on McGregor and that this
thing was tied in with those four
' SI,OOO bills.

was ready. I went out to her desk
and picked it up, Shellie with me.
We used my car to drive the 10
miles beyond the city limits to
the McCGregor home, one of those
comfortable country places set a
couple of miles off the main high
way and shaded with elms and
maples.
I parked at the side of the house,
walked around front with Shellie
dejectedly following me. I rang
the bell, and presently Sylvia Mc-
Gregor answered with a friendly
smile at Shellie,
“Your father here, Miss Mc-
Gregor?” I asked.
She frowned now. “Yes, but he’s
lying down. What can you want
to see him about? You've already
talked to him.”
“That’s right, Miss McGregor. I
may as well tell you. I've got to
arrest him.”
She gasped and stared at me
with such deep loathing as I had
never seen before. Then her
glance darted béyond me as a car
rolled up the drive.
“Thank heavens! Here's dad’s
lawyer!”
The car stopped, and Lew Jeris
got out.
Lew had represented the Mec-
Gregor Casualty Company and I
was glad of his arrival. He would
explain eevrything to McGregor
and his daughter, and there would
be a minimum of trouble.
“What’s up?” he demanded,

climbing the veranda steps. He
was a little man in his 40's with
sharp eyes peering from a lined,
wary face. I told him. He
shrugged. “I was afraid of that.
It’s a rotten shame., McGregor can
be guilty of nothing more than a
technical violation of the law. His
intentions were honorable.”
I couldn’t tell him that I agreed,
for that would be double-crossing
Keever.
Jeris went to break the news to
McGregor and after about 10 min
utes he rejoined us. “Can you hold
off long enough for me to find
bail for McGregor?” he asked. “It
certainly won’t be more than
SIO,OOOO Some of McGregor’s
friends will put up that much.”
I got Keever on the phone and
after Jeris talked to him, figura
tively down on his knees, Keever
agreed to let Jeris have two hours
if Shellie and I stayed with Mec-
Gregor. “Don’t let him out of your
sight,” he added.
Jeris took Sylvia with him as
they drove off toward Capital
City and Shellie and I went up
stairs to see McGregor.

We found him in a bedroom at
the rear of the second floor. He
sat dismally at a window, dressed
in an old bathrobe and staring out
at the woodlot at the rear of the
house. He turned a haggard face
toward us, and his eyes blazed

VA, FHA Take
Joint Action On
Veteran Housing
Veterans Administration and the ’
Federal Housing Administrnti’on
have taken joint action to elimin
ate excessive feet and charges in
connection with construction of
housing financed with the aid of
government guarantees or insur
ance under the GI Bill and the
National Housing Act, Vaux Owen,
Manager, Georgia Regional Office
of the Veterans Administration,
announced today. |
Acting under authority recently
granted in the Housing Act of
1950, FHA Commissioner Franklin
D. Richards and VA Administrator
Carl R. Gray, jr., have established
limitations on such charges, ef
fective July 17, 1950. In setting
the schedule of maximum fees,
both agencies worked closely with
Administrator Raymond W. Foley,
of the Housing and Home Finance
Agency.
The new regulations apply both
to construction lgans and the per
manent financing of new homes
with eredit aids provided by GI
loans guaranteed by VA, or FH-
Insured loans. A certificate will
be required from the builder or
the lender, and in some cases from
both, that no fees in excess of the
maximums have been paid or im
posed. The new regulations will
apply only to applications for VA’s
reasonable value or for FHA com
mitments received in VA or FHA
Offices on or after July 17, 1950.
The maximum interest rate on
construction money advanced to
builders under the schedule is set
at 5 percent. In addition, the lend
er making the construction loan
will be permitted to charge up to
2% percent of the amount of the
funds advanced as a service charge
to cover costs of supervision, mak
ing periodic advances, clearance of
liens, and other overhead.
Where the lender financing the
construction also finances the
mortgage loan of the purchaser,
no additional service charge in
connection with the latter loan is
permitted. Where the permanent
loan is made by a lender other
than the institution advancing the
construction loan, a flat fee previ
ously authorized, which may not
exceed 1 percent, will continue to
be allowed.
In addition to the permissible
service charge, the builder also
may be required to pay certain
other mescellaneous expenses, such
as recording fees and those paid
for appraisals and inspections. In
announcing the new fee schedule,
Commissioner Richards and Ad
ministrator Gray said that ex
cessive charges in connection with
construction loans for FHA and
VA financed housing had become
a serious problem in some areas
of the country. The new restric
tions are intended to curb such
practices.
More than half of all U. S. urban
families own their homes today—
-55 per cent, as against 36 per cent
in 1900.
