CRIMINAL CONTEMPT IS
WOW FACING BRAMWELL
STATE B.WK HEAD ORDERED
TO APPEAR FRIDAY V
Offense Punishable by $.100 Fine.
Six Mouth In County Jail, -or
Both
Facing charges of criminal con
tempt of court. Frank C. Bram
well, state bank superintendent,
will appear in circuit court Fri
day morning, before. Judge L. H.
McMahan to show cause why he
should not be punished for failure
to appear Monday, May 25, under
court order. In case Mr. Bra m
well fails to respond to the order
on Friday a bench warrant will
probably be issued for his arrest.
Under the Oregon statutes,
criminal contempt of court is pun
ishable by a fine of not more than
$300 or a sentence of not to ex
ceed 6ix months, or both, at the
discretion of the court.
The affair grew out of the re
moval of the headquarters of the
state banking department from
Salem to Portland, under a i law
passed by ; the last legislature.
Following the move,. George Put
nam. Salem publisher. issued a
petition demanding the return of
the offices to Salem. The case
was to come up in the circuit
court here. '
Bram well then issued a com
plaint asking for a change of
venue, declaring that Judge Mc
Mahan, because of preconceived
prejudices, could not give him a
fair trial. In a reply. Judge Mc
Mahan stated that .he had never,
to his knowledge, met Bramwell,
and held no opinions one way or
the other. " -
A court order-was then deliv
ered to Bramwell, demanding that
he appear In circuit court and ex
plain just what prejudices he be
lieved Judge McMahan harbored
against him. Neither Bramwell nor
his attorney, S. J. Graham of
Portland, appeared in court, j
. According ' to - officials, ! the
whole testimony, if Bramwell ap
pears Friday, will hinge around
the question as to whether the cir
suit judge has a right to demand
proof of prejudice, or whether he
must' at once grant a change of
venue when a prejudice petition
is filed. If Judge McMahan was
not within his rights in demand
ing Bram well's appearance, j con
tempt eharges against him will be
voiced. Affidavits have been fil
ed with the order, as" the alleged
contempt did not occur in. the
presence of the court.. . '

are offered without charge by the
