Continued From First Page.) wanted in Arizona but had no warrant for his arrest. That was on a Sunday, and at 10:30 that night Crawford se cured an attorney, Thomas G. Ryan, who roused Circuit Judge Morrow in the night to sign a writ of habeas corpus. The folio win g Monday morn ing an effort of District Attorney Evans to quash the writ was fought out before Presiding Judge Stapleton. and Ryan won. The victory was brief. for as Ryan and his client left . the courtroom Crawford was rearrested by Inspector Pat Moloney on a telegraphic warrant, just received from Phoenix. At first Crawford threatened to fight extradition, but at last surrendered and was taken to Phoenix by Deputy Sheriff K. A. Smith of that city. Predlliction for Slang. Crawford is a small, self-assertive individual with a loud voice and predi Uction for vivid slang. He came' to Portland early last January from Seat tle, where he had been working for the Washington-Portland Cement com pany. He was employed as extra for a few days in the office of John Y. Richardson & Co., public accountants, and later took over the work of audit ing the books of Wakefield, Fries & Co.. being employed there about three weeks. He had left their employ when he was arrested. The blank checks were not missed, so that the L'nited States National bank had not been notified to watch for any forgery when it received a telegram from the Tucson bank early in June asking if Wa kef ield. Fries & Co. were good for $5000. The bank replied that it could not certify to a check by wire, but that the concern was well able to pay out such an amount. When the check finally ar rived through the clearing house, it is reported that the bank tellers noted nothing wrong, the most prominent signature, that of D. W. Wakefield, president of the company and one of the ba nk d i rectors, being of unques tionable validity. As soon as the bank statements were made out the forgery was spotted. ( herkn t'leerly Removed. The checks taken were in a leaf of the firm's check book and had been cleverly removed so that the book BELGIANS JEALOUS OF FLAG Tatriotir Societies Protest Ve of National Color by Grrinan. BRUSSELS. Belp-ian patriotic socie ties are forming: to take action to pre vent the Belgian republic from adopt ing: the Relgrian national colars black, yellow and red for its flag;. Intense indignation is manifested, and this is a bit heightened by the plan that the colors in the new German emblem will foe disposed of horizontally instead of vertically. It is generally supposed that the Bel frian colors of today were chosen by th patriots of 1S30. but the revolution ists of that year merely took for them selves the black, yellow and red which Jiad been legendary in Flanders and the Brahant since the middle ages. The princes of Flanders bore on their arms a black lion on a field of gold, and those of Brabant a golden lion on A field of black. The trappings of both were red. From the thirteenth century. therefore, the Belgian colors have been tlack. yellow and red. An argument against the use of the colors by the Germans i sthat the Bel gians have actually employed the black yellow and red horizontally in their em blems notably in their mercantile lags so they consider they still have a. ppriority on that disposition of the colors as well as the vertical use. The horizontal bar.- were adopted by the patriots who overthrew the Austrians in I7S9. In 1S:0 the first flag to fly from the Hotel de Ville- in Brxissels was the horizontal-barred black, yellow and re. The Belgians scorn the plea of the Germans thit they have the right to use the colors because of their use by ' the ancient German empire, of which Austria was the center. They assert that the confusion r:;ultinff from the employment by Germany as well as Belgium of the black, yellow and red would be embarrassing to the nation which had fought four years to keeps Its colors unsullied. appeared untouched, .though the dis crepancy in serial numbers would have been discovered if checked up. Crawford came to Portland with good recommendations, most of them from firms in Arizona, in which state he had made his home for the greater part of five years. One letter was from Gov ernor Hunt of Arizona. When he was ar rested for wife desertion, he main tained that it was part of a political plot. a. frame-up of his enemies to dis credit him because of a role he had played in a governorship campaign. Dispatches from Arizona indicated that nothing was known there of any politi cal connections of the prisoner , Prior to last January. Crawford had lived in Portland for a short time with his wife, staying at the Almira apart ments. according to Pinkerton re ports, but the exact date is not known. He was employed at that time by the Oregon electric railroad, it Is said. When Crawford arranged for his ac count at the Tucson bank, he told of ficials that he had done some large contract worK for the city of Portland and that the check from Wakefield. Fries and company was for services he had rendered that company. When in Portland he was quite boastful of al leged business exploits in other cities. Phoenix Waives Claims. Phoenix authorities have indicated that they are willing that Portland should take Crawford when he is caught. t rather than prosecuting him there for breaking his parole. So far as is known here, Crawford has no criminal record. Crawford was born at Renovo, Pa.. near Harrisburg. in August, 1885. and members of his family still live there. His father. Isaac Crawford, is still in that city, and his brother. Rev.. Mott Crawford, is a Methodist minister of that parish. Leaving his home town with his wife. Mrs. Beatrice Crawford, about five years ago. Crawford took up his quar ters in Phoenix, where he was ac countant for several firms and also was employed by the Arizona & Eastern railroad. Since he began to pay less attention to his wife, early in the year 1918, another woman entered his life, who is known to have been with him for a short time in Los Angeles, and is presumed to have been with him part of the time during his residence in Se attle and -Portland. Mrs. Crawford brought the charges of non-support against him in November. 1S18. but he could not be found until the last part of March, in this city, where he was stopping at the Washington hotel.
