AUSTIN, Mar. 11 (AP) — Atty. Gen. John Ben
Shepperd filed a suit yesterday seeking recovery of an
alleged $35,000 bribe said to have been paid former Land
Commissioner Bascom Giles in a veterans land deal.
The suit alleged that piles accepted a $30,000 cash-
ier’s check and a $5,000 personal check from C. V. Wynn
of San Antonio, an officer of the W. and M. Cattle Co.,
after Giles approved sale of a 663-acre tract in Bexar
county to 32 veterans.
Giles is under indictment in Bexar county for ac-
cepting the bribe. The indictment alleges a $30,000
bribe which did not include the $5,000 personal check
mentioned in the state petition.
Wynn arid Arthur McKenzie, another officer of the
cattle company, were indicted , by the same grand jury
on charges of offering a bribe.
The state’s petition alleged that Giles, as chair-
man of the state’s veterans land program, approved an
illegal increase in the price of the Bexar county land
from $203,000 to $238,000. It called the increase an “ex-
cess charge” for the land. - -
Shepperd sought to have the $35,000 credited on the
remaining obligation of the 32 veterans.
The attorney general said he had secured a court
order requiring that Giles reappear in 53rd District
court March 19 to give an oral deposition.

In Car With
Attorney
By CLAYTON HICKERSON
The Associated Press
B. R. Sheffield, who has been
called a “fugitive” in the growing
Texas veterans land scandal, was
arrested Thursday north of
Gainesville after entering the *
state on highway 77 from Ard-
more, Okla.
The six-foot four-inch Brady
land dealer was arrested by
Charlie Moore of the Department
of Public Safety’s Internal Se-
curity division. He was immedi-
ately rushed to Austin, where he
waited four hours, from 7 p.m.
to 11 p.m., while friends arranged
his $110,800 aggregate ball.

The bill would specifically deal
with the handling of tidelands,
public school lands, asylum lands
and mineral rights owned by the
state.
The auditor would have two
years in which to make the com-
plete audit but he would be ex-
pected to make a report on Jan-
uary 1 next year and each six
months thereafter.
“Texas today is rocked by the
most disgraceful govern-
ment scandal since reconstruc-
tion days” Hardeman said.
“It is clear to everyone that
our veterans land program has
been deliberately plundered J. .
“But the veterans land fund of
$100,000,000 is mere chicken-feed
compared to other parts of t h e
public treasure handled by the
General Land Office. Our tide-
lands alone represent a potential
treasure of countless billions of
dollars.
“It does not make sense that
there would be corruption in our
veterans land program while
everything is in complete order
in every other division of the
land office.”
Hardeman said only a search-
ing investigation could restore
the confidence of the people of
Texas in their government.

tion of $500,000 for the inquiry.

on a grocery' store, caving in the
roof. A small frame building of
the Newco Products Co., furni-
ture plant, was blown over.
Part of the roof was torn from
the Lutheran church here. Other
buildings suffered severe roof
damage.
In Steubenville, lightening tore
a gaping hole in the roof of St.
Peter’s Roman Catholic church.
Tile from the roof piled up so
high that a street had to be
closed. | Some pieces were sent
flying through windows of a
convent 200 feet away. All of the
locked doors of the church were
blown open. Damage was ex-
pected to exceed $30,000.
The storm hit south of Lee-
tonia, flattening two rural ga-
rages, one falling on a school bus
parked inside. A roof was ripped
from a house and several small
farm buildings were ruined by
the wind.
Near East Liverpool, Ohio river
dam No, 9 at New Cumberland,
W. Va.,was damaged. Tile was
blown dff the power house and
windows were knocked out.
In the Steubenville area, fall-
ing trees blocked three county
roads. Three big plate glass win-
dows in-the downtown area were
smashed. Lightning activated
Civil Defense sirens at five
schools, giving residents an early
awakening and causing a flood
of phone calls at the police and
fire departments.
Zanesville, in southern Ohio,
also was hit by the storm. One
house roof was ripped off. Cin-
cinnati reported slight damage.
Throughout northeast Ohio,
communities reported damage
from fallen trees. In some areas,
basements were flooded as drains
failed to carry off water.
The line of thundershowers
moved eastward across the state
and into western Pennsylvania
and West Virginia. Some hail
was reported as the storm* line
developed over southeastern
Michigan and advanced across
Ohio.
