(Continued from page 1)
excess of the proposed purchase
price. On this basis a "norder of
sale was made transferring title
to Mrs. Neal.
The district attorney stated
that further investigations and
statements of the parties con
cerned, revealed that Howser al
legedly had furnished Mrs. Neal
with the money to buy the land,
although there is no evidence
she knew its true worth, and that
she was paid a commission of
$400, after sale had been made.
A cruise of the timber report
edly was made by Ray I. Kim
mey, of the O. and C. adminis
tration, district office at Rose
burg, and a sale negotiated with
Catching and Randall, sawmill
operators at Drain, who paid
$2,001.50 cash and contracted to
pay the balance on the purchase
price of $9,321.50 in monthly pay
ments of $305, Long stated. Two
of the monthly payments were
made, making a total of $2,611.50
paid by Catching and Randall.
The county court, learning by
accident of the true value of the
lands, ordered an Investigation,
in which the state police gave
most efficient assistance to the
district attorney's office. The
disrict attorney also reported be
ing aided by Attorney Guy Cor
don of Roseburg.
Howser, Long said, admitted
the transaction when questioned
and further stated that he had
viewed the land prior to Its sale,
although no actual cruise was
made at that time.
Court Discharges Howser.
Full recovery has been made
bv the county, Long reported, as
Howser surrendered the full
amount of $2,111.50, which, with
the $500 paid by Mrs. Neal, cov
ered the total payments by the
! Drain company. Mrs. Neal ex
' eeuted a conveyance of title to
the county, with the court taking
over the contract with Catching
and Randall. Howser, Long said,
has been dismissed as a county
employee.
The district attorney stated he
could find no record of the law,
under which criminal charges
are brought against Howser, ever
having been previously exercised.
The law provides a maximum
fine of $5,000 or Imprisonment
for one year In the county jail
or state penitentiary or by both
fine and Imprisonment, or dis
missal from county employment
either with or without other
penalty.

The vision of American industry is projected forward. In laboratories,
on drawing boards, and in conference rooms the post-war world is
already taking form.. It holds promise not only of fascinating new
products, streamlined construction, and speedier transport but also of
wider opportunity and greater well-being for the individual. Out of the
agony of war a new world is being born.
