But Defends Broth- ers In Scandal In- volving Firm.

NEW YORK, Dec. 22 -(A.P) - —-F. Donald Ccster-Musics/s ex-

lanation of the scandal involv- ng his firm -—n half-coherent denunciation of Wall Street, a sub- stantial admission of his own otitlpabiilty and a defence of his brothers —-wus made public today as the Government began in-

stigation of men who profited by knowledge of the master swindiers past career as Philip Musics. In a letter written in the last desperate hours of his lifs Custer- Muslcsntm told his side of the story “'1 We gfatilfllnw"! 819030818» written last ilrsday night when he decided tc end by suicide his 10118 "lflsqiierade. It was addressed to Samuel Reich, the promoters Attorney, and released by him. At one point, Caster-Musics ad- mtitted having betrayed some cf those who trusted him. At another he wrote in a. sha hand:- “As Gcd is my udge I am the victim of Wall Street plunder and bisnhnaii in s struggle for honest existence." Government attorneys were not impressed, Assistant Attorney Gen- eral Brien McMahon remarked in -Washing-ton that regardless of the note "our information definitely indicates that the surviving bro- thers are more culpable than he would lead us to believe." Gregory Noonun. acting United States Attorney, heading the in- quiry here. asserted st least eight persons had been found to have nude money in one way or another through their knowle e of Ooster- lfusica’: old secret -hat he was once convict Philip Musics. Nconan asserted, too. that the Government had evidence Custer- Musica had been in a conspiracy to violets the law covering the sale of arms to foreign countries tlmd had violated the alcohol tax aws.

0n many things in his lest let- ter he was vague and rumbling, but in the $18,000,000 over-state- ment of assets in his drug com-

charged to him, he was direct an positive. “MeKessonP he wrote, “sh have been in receivership in 1930 and again in 1902 if its profits had 11% been bolstered in n frantic effort to save the company -s.nd the alleged ‘millions’ lost are simply ‘Droflto.’ to save the company from the hands of the bond-holders and afford a dividend at least to the erred stock in hands of inno- cent stockholders that were not getting salaries for the rottenest kind of management." Throughout the letter. which Noonon suggvsted should be re- garded as the work of a. man tem- porarily unbalanced. Coster-Musica. showed none of the skill and decisiveness which, must have been required to make him. a former convict. the president of an $87,- 000000 drug firm. ‘the dl"llOn was poor and un- learned There was s strong ro- curring note on self-pity He out forward at length the contention it was necessary for "profits" to be "maintained" lest the "bangers and lawyers" succeed in milking the company through receivership. “Let the world Judge," he said, "if bankers, lutvivem. auditors, ap- praisers. that got millions out of the compsnv knew nothing."

‘U

Kesson 8c Robbins and the W. W. Smith Ocntpanv figured. leading to statements by responsible of- ficuls that "conclusive proof" that the drug company was in the arms- running business has already been assembled.

‘The possible source of any such uuantitv of rifles as Kantcr men- tioned in the lice line-up r - manned snmeih ng of a mystery.

"In the arsenals and armories of the United States Army there are at present some 800,000 spring- fieid rifles and some 1.2000110 En- fieids. This vast quantity of En- fields Ls a result of the World War. At the time the United Sta-tee en- tered the war three fsctoriesin the United states were turning out Enfields for the British Army. These were the Westinghouse. Re- mington and Winchester factoriu. with n mm capacity of 10,000 rifles a dav. Although tho Spring- field had been rezuiar United States Army equipment, the En- field was adopter! an an ant-mercy measure and the calibre reduced from .303 to .30 Oi’ these rifles. 2,300,000 were manufactured and n- bout 2200000 are still in the hands of the army.’

“Unless ih°rs has been a "mu-- scale theft, a thin: army officials did not believe to be possible there would not be my possibility 0f obtaining in this country 250.- Oill Enfieid rifles.

"However. the Enfleld was dis- tinct from the old Lee-Enfield. which used a. rim-fire csrtri e and which had been declared o - solete for the British Army in 1914. ‘The Lee-Enfield of the same design had been used as a navy wea in the United States and about filfty were found when the S. s.

Ted in i904, it was not until just be- fore the world War that the Brit- ish Army put the new Enfieid — similar but not identical with the one: stored in this country -on a
