Officials who serve without ether reward than that of service know best of all how dependent this work is upon the Chest funds. A. W. Brookings, treasurer of The Baby Home at W'averly, wrote President Griffith: As treasurer and one of the direc- ors of the W'averly Baby Home, it gives me pleasure to advise you that we are satisfied with the treatment accorded us by the officials of the Community Chest aad to thank you as their representative for the kindly consideration afforded us." Mrs. R. E. Bondurant, president of the Albertina Kerr Nursery home, wrote: The Community Chest has fully met the expectations of this institu- ion and its continued existence Is hopefully looked forward to."

Todd, ex-superlntendent of schools of Salem and leader in civic affairs In that city, yesterday went on trial in the federal court of Judge Bean on an indictment charging him with using tha mails to deffaud, while aiding in the promotion of timber claim contracts that lost thousands of dollars for Salem people. This Is the second time that Todd has been tried on indictments brought about by his timber land operations. In the first trial last November, a federal jury acquitted Todd on three counts but divided on the fourth. United States Attorney Humphreys, dissatisfied with the findings of the Jurors, submitted new evidence to the grand Jury and another indictment charging . Todd, In two counts, with using the mails to defraud, was re turned. Todd was associated with Carlos L. Byron, now a fugitive from Justice, in his dealings in Salem. Byron, a clever manipulator, convinced Todd that he had a "stand in with land officials in Washington which .made it possible for him to obtain valuable claims at little cost. Seeing an opportunity for speedy riches, Todd, according to testimony In the case, took several contracts and urged his friends to do likewise. More than 130 Salem citizens, including leading lawyers, business men and bond dealers, purchased "contracts" at (600 each. Then it was charged that Byron was a fraud. Todd was taken before the federal grand Jury and indicted with Byron for using the mails to defraud. The afternoon session yesterday was consumed choosing a Jury. Before going to trial Charles Kobison, of Astoria, who is defending Todd, stated that a number of the witnesses who appeared for the government at the previous trial would be called by the defense during the course of the trial. United States Attorney Humphreys assisted by Austin Flegel is conduct ing the prosecution. WORK FOR 20 PROMISED County Provides Job for Number of Heads of Families.
