Former Govt. Man
Accepted Gifts,
Lithofold Case
Also Admits Borrowing
Money from Official
Of Corporation
WASHINGTON, Sept. 24—W—A
former government employee told
today of receiving expensive gifts
and borrowing $6,100 from an of
fieial of American Lithofold Corp.,
when that company was seeking
printing contracts with the air
force.
The testimony at a Senate in
quiry came from Charles B. Moling,
who said he left his $6,400-a-year
publications job with the air force
last March to become the $25,000-a
year eastern division sales manager
for American Lithofold.
Moling said Lithofold, a St.
Louis printing firm, obtained a
number of contracts from the air
force but that he couldn’t esti
mate how many or of what value.
He declared that he never in
fluenced, or tried to influence, the
awarding of contracts.
Moling said he received gifts in
cluding a television set, a movie
camera and projector, a ham and a
turkey from a Lithofold official,
Robert A. Elauner.
Blauner is the son of the com
pany's president, R. J. Blauner. The
younger Blauner is now in Cuba.
The Senate Investigations sub
committee is looking into charges
that American Lithofold used po
litical influence to get $565,000
in loans from the government’s
Reconstruction Finance Corpora
tion (RFC).
The name of William M. Boyle,
Jr., Democratic National Chair
man, has been brought into these
charges. He has denied he in
fluenced the loans.
At the outset of today’s hearings,
Senator Nixon (R-Calif) demanded
that the Senators ask Boyle to sub
mit his income tax returns for study.
Nixon told reporters later he had
heard that Boyle had received
$100,000 from his former law part
ner, Max Siskind, as a payment for
his (Boyle’s) share of their former
law business.
Siskind has handled American
Lithofold business in Washington.
Nixon told his colleagues on the
investigating committee that there
should be a full exploration of fi
nancial dealings between Boyle and
Siskind.
