"And such nerve he had ; told her he
owned an estate up In the mountains
and the lodge on it. Seven thousand
acres he told her It was. In the first
place It wasn't his by rights at all, but
mine, and in the second place, it was only
160 acres.
"I gave him the money to go and buy
the place for me. He bought it all right

HINGE'S BAIL CUT
TO $5000: HE IS
STILL HELD IN JAIL
Upon representations made by E.
V. Littlefield, attorney for August
Junge, the bail for Junge was re
duced Tuesday from $15,000' to
$5000. The amount req lred was not
forthcoming, however, and Jfcnge .re
mained in jail. It is expected he may
be released today.
It la probable he will have a hearing
before the grand Jury during the pres
ent week. It was originally reported the
alleged defalcations of' Junge would
reach close to $100,000, but Deputy Dis
trict Attorney Maguire, who has been
making investigations, indicated Tues
day that the amount Involved may not
be more than $40,000 or $50,000, based on
alleged duplication in sales contracts.
Junge"s attorney, after a conference,
said that he would advise Junge to plead
guilty if he was shown evidence of fraud
In Junge's dealings, but that so far he
had not seen any such evidence. He
declared that the worst phase apparent
now was the hasty leaving of Junge.
Junge himself declared that he left
Portland while in a mental maze over
his tangled affairs. Re stated that he
and his wife spent many hours trying
to locate the auto trucks taken from the
salesrooms, and that If he could have
had them replaced all would have been
well, but that when he found this was
impossible, he became panic-stricken
and determined that he could not face
the disgrace of bankruptcy proceedings,
therefore he fled.
It was indicated Tuesday that Junge
might become a voluntary bankrupt and
that the affairs of the agency, of which
he was manager, might go into the
IN
DIPLOMATIC WAY
By William Philip Slmms
Washington. April 21. L N. S.)
Regardless of whatever 4 action the
"big three" of San Remo might take
in regard to soviet Russia, this coun
try has no intention of recognizing
her diplomatically at this time.
This information came today from a
high authority from whom it also was
learned that within a short time a new
Russian policy will be adopted by the
United States, whereby trade relations
may be resumed at the risk of the trad
er. At the present time the allied
countries refuse to permit trading with
soviet Russia, America among the rest.
Clearance papers are refused to ves
sels bearing goods. for Russia by virtue
of the war time measure making it un
lawful to export goods of any kind from
the United States to any country, en
emy or neutral, "if the public safety
shall so require."
EARLY CHANGE EXPECTED
This status, it is understood, will be
changed at an early date. American
firms, it is said, will shortly be given
permission to sell anything they choose
to the Russians, providing they do so
at their own risk and will not hold the
government responsible for losses if
losses are incurred in such trade.
