The mysterious Perkins Foundation about which Monroe was questioned by tHe House Military Affairs Committee, was first organized in Boston in 1937 to handle real estate deals, then revived in 1940 to place contracts, com- mi.sions. for 15 manufacturing firms. its directors include Robert T. Storer, Boston investment banker; Donald 1. Stork, and Joseph Driscoll.

Monroe is their contact in Washington and is reported to have handled various war contracts for them. How much he is paid is not known, but the rent on the house at 2101 Street is $500 monthly. Ilis entertainment bills cannot be meagre. Monroe gives the impression that he is on the inside of inside Washington. One statement he made to friends was that Vice- chairman Kberstadt of WPB would soon lake over Donald Nelson's job.

This, he said, came straight from the White House. (Nelson later fired Eberstadt). Monroe also says Pentagon Building has seven roofs because of confusion among contractors who never consulted with each til her. I III' 1 1 I I I I I Chicago, May 6 arrivals 31, on track 28. total U.
