MONDAY, OCTOBER 13,; 1020. THE OREGON DAILY " JOURNAL, PORTLAND, , OREGON ACCUSED OF FRAUD Charred with obtaining money under false pretenses in a land deal at Tillamook. Thad Robinson, for mer eaahler of the Tillamook Coun ty bask, now a bond and mbrtae broker of Portland, was arrested at hie home. 864 Colonial avenue. Sun day morning- by Deputy Sheriff Perkins of Tillamook and Chief Deputy Sheriff Christofferson of Portland. A secret indictment was served last week by the Tillamook county grand jury. Unable to erranie for 110.000 bail bond, Robinson waa forced to remain In the county Jail Sunday night He will be taken to Tillamook Monday. Robinson is indicted on a charge of i selling X0- 11000 notes to two Tillamook county cltlsena under false representa tions. Robinson denied that there was any irregularity in the financial trans actions with the two men. The affair can be quickly adjusted when he returns to Tillamook, he said Sunday.x Bitter at the manner of his arrest, because he was placed in Jail on Sun day when it was virtually impossible to arrange ball, Robinson said that his ac cusers would be exposed on his return to Tillamook. He branded the affair as a frame-up. Robinson said that he had been a banker for 20 years and this is the first time that he has been accused of any Irregularity in business transactions. "I purchased 160 acres of alfalfa land which laid within a government irriga tion project. I sold this land to 12 men who wanted to get hold of soma alfalfa land. They paid 69200 to me in cash and game me 10 61000 notes to Insure payment of the balance. I sold the notes, but guaranteed the payment to the two men who bought them," he said. "A corporation cannot acquire title property in an Irrigation district until the indebtedness is cleared. The group of men who bought the land understood this perfectly. "The purchasers of the notes have my written assurance that the notes will be lid. I am financially able to pay oft the 610.000 even if the corporation does not" ' lege certificate from the Oregon Agricul-. tural college. - .The course will include 10 lectures to be followed by other Instruction, after which examinations will be held.
