Publicity Man Given Chance to Answer Patman's Charges Dies Inquiry Will Hear Answer to Accusation He Represented Nazis Carl Bvoir, New York publicity man. today was offered an oppor tunity to answer before the Dies Committee charges that he had directed Nazi publicity in this coun- : try. The New Yorker, twice assailed on the floor of the House by Repre sentative Patman, Democrat, of Texas, yesterday wrote Chairman Dies of the House Committee on Un American Activities urging that Mr. Patman's charges be investigated. Disclaiming connection with the Nazi government, he blamed the at tack by Mr Patman to the fact that he had opposed the Patman bill to curb chain stores for the past two years Denies Approaching Congress. "I am a publicist, not a lobbyist.” I he wrote. "Never during that em- i ployment have I directly or indi rectly approached any member of Congress or any official of the Gov ernment to attempt to influence them in connection with this or any other legislative matter." Mr. Byoir told Mr. Dies that in 1933 his firm had a contract with the German federal railroads to promote travel in Germany. “Nothing was done under this contract.” he said, "that could by any stretch of the imagination be termed un-American or Nazi propa ganda. This contract was canceled by me in 1934. For six years we have had no contract of any sort with any foreign interest or foreign government except in connection with civilian relief in China.” Investigator W ill Go to Boston. Among other things. Mr. Patman said that Mr. Byoir and George Syl vester Viereck. the author, "com menced to represent Nazi Germany Boon after Hitler came into power." The Dies committee arranged yes terday to send an investigator to Boston to look into activities of the German Consul there in connection with editorial attacks on Hitler by ] the Boston Traveler. The news-, paper announced that the consulate j had protested the editorial as an' insult and served notice that it j would "refuse to give your paper any ! Information.” Washingtonians to Speak F.
