He said he thought all they could give him was eighteen I months or two years." Badorf was then asked whether Frank M. Ryan, president of the In? ternational Association of Bridge and Structural iron Workers, war not in the habit of signing blank checks. The defense is that Run signed many checks in blank and did not know to what use McXamara pot them. Badorf said he did not remember telling Ryan that that was a loose way of doln?r business.
