ished appearance. was examined by

“pressure" on any one to advertise
in Brevities. And he also denied that
he had ever promised to stop the
publication of articles for the sake
of “ads."
On cross-examination Maxwell
Mattuck. Assistant United States

Clow that he had been using parall-
dehyde during the tglal. He denied
strenuously. however, that he was a
“dope fiend.”
He said he was the owner or
Brevities, adding that the magazine

"\Vhat was your position on Brev-
ities?" asked Mr. Fallon.
“Chief executive and business
manager.’
"How many solicitors did you em-
ploy. ""'
“About twenty-live."
"What were your instructions to
them,"
“I told them to exercise great can-
tlon and to mold anything oil color."
Recline Peggy Joyce.
Mr. Fallon produced a telegram
from Peggy Joyce to Clow.
'Dld you have any transaction
with Miss Joyce?"
"She paid its $200. "
“A1ter that did any articles ap-
pear about- her?"
"Yes—both favorable
favorable.”
”At the time of the articles she
was a friend—she went to unions
places with you?"
"Yes, we went to Jimmy Kelly's
in the Village and various other
places.”
"Did she ever make any sugges-
tion about intimidation?"
f‘\'o."
Lnder further questioning by Mr.
Fallon Claw sold he had known
Evelyn Neville ot Dainty Form. Inc. ..
for eight years. and that they were
good friends. He denied that he had
ever agreed to stop the publication
or articles about her if she adver-
tised. Miss Neville testified to the
cont: ary.
He was also questioned about the
testimony of Helen Lee Worthlng.
former Follies girl. who said she
paid to have her photograph pub-
lished in order to stop the publica-
tion of articles about her.
Only straight News
Clow said that only straight news
items appeared about Miss Worth-
ing, and he denied he told her he
would leave her name out o! Brev.
ities if she "advertised.”
and un-
“Didg you ever hear anythin
against Otto Kuhn?"
llNo'Il
“Did you ever hear anything
against Jake Euppert?"
"No. nothing outside of the fact
that he made beer."
Clow stated further that he knew
nothing against Paul Bonwit of
Bonwit Teller.
"Did you bring pressure to make
them advertise?" .
"NO."
In his cross-examination by Mr.
Mattuck he was asked when articles
on degenerates started in Brevitles.
"September. 1924." he said.
“Do you use drugs?"
ICN°.II
“Haven't you used paraldehydc
during this trial?"
"Yes. I have, said Clow. "But I'd
like to correct the impression that

"Do you ever use ether?"
“No."
“Did you discuss with Brawn (A.
B._ Brown. one of the defendants).
the amount of advertising he got
’1 from Mr. Kuhn?" asked Matluck.
“No—-Kahn never got direct ad-
vertising in Brevities."
It was testified Tuesday at Ot-
to Kuhn paid Brevities $1 '0. and
later part of one of his speeches
was reprinted in the magazine.
"Mr. Kahn sent you copies of his
speech. didn't he?"
"Ye. II
"And this was about the time you
had been paid the money for adver-
tising?" .
"I presume so."
"How long after you were paid
did this article appear?"
I "I can‘t recall," answered Claw.
“You separated from your wife in
1928?”
"Yes." answered Clow.
Took an Account Boa]:
In response to further questions
Clow stated that his wife had one of
the account books of Brevities.
‘ “She took it with her." said the
witness. “when we separated." \
“Did you not threaten to step
paying her alimony unless she re-
,turned your book?" was asked by
Mr. Mattuck. but objection by Mr.
Fallon was sustained.
