Y., and A, C. Bid- well, president of both concerns. The request for investigation was made to the Postoffice department by Merle Sidener of Indianapolis, chair- man of the national vigilance com- mittee of the advertising clubs, Post- office department records show Bid- well had been indicted by a federal grand jury in Rochester, N. Y, charged with using the mails to further a scheme to defraud, and that he and two of his agents have been indicted by the grand jury at Fayette county, Pennsylvania, on a charge of conspiracy to defraud. Hearings on the complaints cov- ered forty-six days and brought out testimony that Bidwell and his agents, soliciting members for the lea§uc at $10 each, represented that the league had contracts with manufacturers of standard motor car accessories which enabled the league to sell them to 1916.
