Significantly, he later turned out to be the same Ed Martin who fronted for a New York corporation formed overnight to get a cut of a huge purchase of Chinese National- ist gasoline. This mysterious deal was blocked when were suspected. Attorney Martin, when queried about Gruenwald, explained that be had inherigeds glaer office space from Henry but neglected to notify the phone company. The minute the column representative stepped outside the door, however, Martin picked up the phone, called Senator Bridges' office, and tersley report- | ed: “A guy named Anderson was ! here asking about Henry. Later, it developed that Martin | was actually o= Grunewald's pay- | roll. GRUNEWALD'S MYSTERY SUITE | Next lead was that Grunewald | occupied a suite on the fourth floor of the Washington Hotel. Investi- gation revealed that he used the suite. as an office. However, it was strangely registered under the name of Harry Woodring, former Secre- | tary of War. Queried by phone, in Topeka, Kansas, Woodring explain- ed that he and Grunewald had cnce used the suite together on a business deal and that Grunewald must have neglected to change the hotel records. i A tip from a hotel bellboy de- | veloped the fact that Grunewald | was also chummy with another guest on the fourth floor of the | Washington Hotel—Dan Bolich, | then No. 2 man in the Internal Revenue Bureau. Bolich was a free spender around the hotel, probably spending more than a government salary permitted. He had been seen in the company of New York underworld boss Frankie Costello. > Further research developed that Grunewald had many addresses in | addition to his Munsey Building | phone number and Washington Ho- | tel headquarters.

But when this column placed the evi- | dence before Senator Pepper, in- cluding Grunewali’s activities, Pep- | per remarked: I “Is Menry mixed up in this?” Shortly thereaiier, Pepper seem- ed to lose interest in the investi- | gation and took a round-the-world | | trip with Senator Rrewster, the man {he was supposed to investigate. | Meanwhile, my curiosity about Grunewald was heightened by the | | discovery that he had been mixed | up in a black-market liquor deal. | This had been investigated by the | Alcohol Tax Unit, but Grune- |wald's part in it was never made b0 % aBediiE N MANY HIGH FRIENDS Significantly, the Alcohol Tax Unit is under the direct control of the Internal Revenue Bureau. And a little probing as to why nothing had been done about Grunewald and his black market case revealed the interesting fact that he was a bosom friend of three key men in the Internal Revenue Bureau. Not only was he a friend of Deputy Commissioner Bolich, but of Com- missioner George Schoeneman and General Counsel Charlie Oliphant. Both Schoeneman and Oliphant had spent vacations at Grunewald's home at Miami Beach. Schoeneman also dropped around for spaghetti dinners at Grunewald’s apartment in the Westchester. Interviewing Oliphant about his friendship with Grunewald brought forth scant information.

Did you know Grunewald had a reputation around town for fixing tax cases?"” To both questions, Oliphant re- plied: “No.” “What is Grunewald’s business?” “I have no idea,” shrugged Oli- phant. It was suggested to Oliphant that it seemed strange for a’'man in his position to accept the hospitality of a man without even knowing his usiness. He made no comment. “The Dutchman” is also a caller at the office of Vice President Bark- He also owned $75,000 homes in Miami, Fla., and Spring Lake, N. J.| Deputy Commissioner Bolich also had a summer home at the latter place. For commuting purposes, Grunewald owned a fleet of at least three limousines. | SENATOR BREWSTER' FRIEND | As we delved deeper into the| wire-tap story, we leagned th‘u! Grunewald had the habit of visit-! ing Senator Brewster e or twic a week that they called each other by first names. We also were able to prove that Brewster paid the expenses of Grunewald’s wire-tapping friend, Lt. Joe Shimon of the Washington police force, while he was listening in on Howard Hughes' private telephone conver- sations. SENATE FEEBLE PROBE Meanwhile, Senator Neely pointed Senator Claude Pepper of ap- ley and twice has turned up at din- ners with Jess Larson, former head of the War Assets Administration, now head of General Services. In each case, Larson said he was in- vited to Fordham University din- ners by Grunewald's lawyer, Ed Martin. When he got to the dinner, Grunewald was conspicuously pre- sent and even sat next to him. Larson said he found the rumor was spreading t Grunewald was the best intermediary to handle surplus property deals, so he turn- ed down an invitation to golf with him and a “group of Senators,” and tried to steer clear of Grunewald in the future After the Dutchman learned that I was investigating him, he started an investigation of me. I am still waiting to see what, if anything, he turned up. FROM SITKA Ben C.
