The clerk, George Wasil Papach, 29, an employe of the Washington Terminal Co., was taken into cus tody Friday night at his home in the 1600 block of Potomac avenue S.E. A Federal Bureau of Investigation ί agent said sales record discrepancies had been traced back to January, 1946, but added he was "not ta a position to say" whether Papach was Involved to that extent. He said : the mortage might amount to $5,000. At the time of his arrest, $854 in cash—including $252 in coin—was found in Papach's home, the FBI reported. Investigators said Papach had admitted "perhaps $300 or $400 of this money belongs to the rail roads." When brought before United States Commissioner Needham C. Tiirnage yesterday, the defendant asked that the hearing be continued to Tuesday to permit him to consult a brother, his only relative here; and to obtain counsel. Papach told I the commissioner the rest of his iamily lives in Scranton, Pa., his ;home town. He came to Washing ; ton in 1942. According to the FBI, suspicion first fell on the defendant when a terminal gateman noticed a passenger's ticket was not properly stamped. Capt. William A. Peal of the Terminal Police was notified, and the ticket sale traced. Mean while, the station told the FBI it had received numerous requests from railroad companies for pay ment ou tickets issued at the termi nal but not recorded there. Maximum penalty on the charge is two years in jail and a $5,000 fine.
