Another act of Custodian Garvan was to sell the confiscated Bosch Magneto Co. For this he was charged with defrauding the government of $5,500,000 but the case was dismissed last fortnight. From these things he probably conceived his great hate of the Teuton shadow. Last week he accused Senator Moses, former State Attorney General Merton E.

Chemical Corp., which he sent to the office of the State...
