congress, with representatives of
the business men and Ad club, at
a dinner at the Gray Belle. The
30 men present elected Lyle P.
Bartholomew as Building congress
representative to direct the plan
ning of the two-day event.
A meeting of the congress mem
bers, business men, American Le
sion members, industrial heads
and representatives of the Wom
en's Greater Oregon association
will be called today or tomorrow
to develop the plans further, Bar
tholomew announced.
The idea for the parade is
claimed to be unique. It calls for
a moving display of all phases of
the building industry, beginning
with simple building materials
and graduating up the scale
through labor to the culmination,
the completed building and land
scaped grounds. In addition, the
parade, as planned, will display
Salem products and urge patron
age of local industries and busi
nesses. A talking-picture company of
Portland has offered to send
equipment here to record the par
ade. As many bands as possible
wll be mustered for the affair.
Motion for dismissal of indict
ments against I. H. Fetty and W.
R. Adams, ex-officers of the Em
pire Holding corporation who
bare not yet been tried, will
probably be made. It was learned
Monday from the state corporation
commissioner's offices here. James
W. Mott, commissioner. Is said to
have determined upon this proced
ore an io me iact mat tne jury
deadlocked in the trial of Judge
Oarer P. Coshow and returned
verdict of not guilty in the re
cently concluded case of Jay
Stockman.
Mott Is known to be anxious to
have Barnett H. Goldstein, special
prosecutor for bis department, en
gage in some pending trials in
Portland. He considers Frank J.
Keller, Jr., original promoter of
the Empire corporation scheme,
who was found guilty of a scheme
to defraud by a Polk county Jury,
the most Important of the defen
dants. He is awaiting sentence
before Judge Arlle G. Walker.
The final decision of whether
trials will be proceeded with
against Fetty and Adams will be
made after a conference between
Attorney General Van Winkle,
Mott, District Attorney Carson
and Goldstein.
Marlon county has borne the
expense of the trials which have
averaged $3700 each. All the
cases have been before Judge
Walker and the trials have each
consumed a fortnight of time.
