Attorney to Advise Guilty
Plea if Finding Fraud.

DEALER'S STORY CREDITED
District Attorney Believes Onlj
$200 and Xot $50,000 In Checks
Was Taken Along.
"1 will advise August Junge to
plead guilty if I receive any evidence
of fraud in his dealings." promised E.
V. Littlefield, Junge's attorney yes
terday following a conference in the
county jail with the automobile truck
dealer who whs apprehended in Scot
land. S. r., after a flight from Port
land on March 29, and brought back
to ihia city Monday night.
According to Deputy District At
torney Maguire. Junge probably will
get a hearing before the grand jury
before the end of the week. In the
meantime hail has been reduced from
$15,000 to J5000. The latter amount
has not yet been furnished, however,
and Junge remained in jail yesterday.
It was expected that the amount
could be raised within a day or two.
listrict Attorney Evans does not
believe that Junge left Portland with
$30,000 in travelers' checks, as re
ported here following his disappear
ance. On the other hand, the district
attorney is Inclined to believe Junge's
statement that he had only $200 with
him when he left this city.
Deputy Maguire, who has been in
vestigating the Junge case, declared
yesterday that it was extremely un
likely that the alleged defalcations
would amount to I100.0O0, as an
nounced during the preliminary in
vestigations. "So far, we have found between
$40,000 and $.".0,000 duplicated in sales
contracts." he said, "but I do not
believe the total, amount to be ac
counted for will exceed $40,000. Be
cause of the troubled financial waters
In which he found himself before he
left, he could not possibly have got
ten away with that much cash, as a
large part of it was necessary, ap
parently, to cover the deals, pay the
heavy overhead expense he was op
erating under, and to. permit him to
live up to the standard toe set."
Attorney Littiefield indicated yes
terday that Junge would plead bank
ruptcy in the federal court and put
the affairs of the Diamond T. Truck
agency of which he was manager into
the hands of a receiver for straight
ening out.

In a letter to Representative Albert
Johnson today Secretary of War
Baker recommends that congress be
asked for an appropriation of $1000
for a preliminary examination of the
Cowlitz river in Washington, with a
view to obtaining data on the coast
of a survey to determine the feasibil
ity of a flood control project.
"No information is available as to
the practicability of controlling the
floods of the river, nor are there any
funds available for obtaining the data
which would be necessary to have in
order to enable an estimate to be
made of the amount of control which
could be effected," said Secretary
Baker.

Let Your Children
Learn on a
Good Piano
A poor Piano has no musical quality of
tone. This lack of tone quality is a seri
ous menace to the "ear." Also in a poor
Piano the action is hard and irregular,
and the fingers and hands are improp
erly trained. Therefore, if you intend
to have your children learn to play,
provide them with a good Piano. It is
a mistake to think that a cheap or poor
Piano is good enough for them to "bang
on" their first impressions are lasting
ones start their training right give
them the best you can afford. Consider
quality and not cheapness. A good, re
liable dealer has good Pianos at mod
erate (not cheap) prices, and sells them
on convenient terms.
