Bribe Reports Ruined Me, Says Army Cap Tycoon By AiteeUttd PrtM WASHINGTON Chicago cap maker Harry Lev told investigating senators today that testimony linking him to bribes has "ruined me. I am no more a millionaire." Unhappily shaking his head, Lev heard him.self denounced in testimony by a former Army inspector who says his life has been threatened, and in a purported deathbed statement of a former employe. Then he took the witness stand in a Senate Investigations subcommittee hearing with vigorous new denials of wrongdoing.

Lev offered the subcommittee a financial accounting of more than $200,000 in cash which he said had passed through his hands in 1952 and 1953, trying, he said, to show that "not a broken cent" of it was to bribe anybody. In an earlier hearinj? Lev had said he couldn't remember what he dia with the money. The accuracy and complete ness of the accounting promptly came under fire in the subcommittee's public search for evidence of graft in procurement for the armed forces. Tlie former inspector, Michael Wcintraub of New York City, swore that Lev "tried to bribe me many times' when Weintraub was stationed by the Army at Lev's Mid-City Uniform Cap Co. in Chicago to chock Lev's work on contracts for the production of uniform caps Burlesque Crisis: More Take Home Or Less Take-Off By AiiaciiUd Prttt LOS ANGELES It's more take-home pay for takeoff, alsb the burlesque queens of Los Angeles are going to stay home.

The threat of a "cover up" strike was made Monday as strippers met to protest their $85-a-week pay. They said this is the lowest in any large city for their art. The girls gathered in a hot, stuffy, low-ceiling upstairs room of a downtown mght club. A few wore topcoats. This was regarded as symbolic.

"When the minimum wage is rai.sed, then we'll take them off," said one in a speech. There was scattered applause. This was the first meeting of the League of Exotic Dancers. It is a group within the American Guild of Variety Artists, through which all the girl entertainers are booked, A quite personable blonde, Jennie Lee, is the founder and president of the group. She says other cities pay as much as $125 a week for strip-teasers, but more fhan that, she told her sister dancers that dressing rooms are too crowded, there is no suitable place to spend time between shows, and that owners of some clubs e.xpoct the girls to mingle with patrons betweea shows to promote bar bu.siness.

That, she said, is kaput. On hand to back up her sentiments were Betty Rowland, Rusty Laine with her French poodle, Nvita, Daurene Dare, Virginia Valentine, Denise Dunbar, Peggy Stuart, Champagne and others. MOTORIST KILLED RANTOUL, 111. Stanley C. Werner, 19.
