Representative Ford. It is a fine school.
Mr. Rowley. That is where it started, actually. They were the first ones. Now we also recruit on the west coast, in California, they have terrific schools out there.
Mr. Rankin. Chief Rowley, I don't think you covered the Bolden matter as to whether you had an investigation made. Did you?
Mr. Rowley. Yes; I did, sir.
Mr. Rankin. Did you find out anything about the conduct of your agents?
Mr. Rowley. I found out there was no truth to the charges of misconduct. There were 11 charges lodged against us.
One charge, the ninth charge, a part of it was true. The boys did contribute for food. In other words, up there in Hyannis, when they are up there for a week, or a weekend, they would be assigned to a house, which economically was beneficial to them. One shift, and some of the drivers would be in this house. This house was in a remote area from the shopping area and so forth. So they agreed when they arrived there to contribute, to buy food for breakfast, it being an 8 to 4 shift. Eight to four meant they would have breakfast there and dinner.
Mr. Rankin. What do you mean by that, Chief? Did they get a certain house and were able to live together there to reduce their expenses?
Mr. Rowley. That is correct.
Mr. Rankin. And then they each contributed to that common expense?
