Instructions in Drager's
Trial to Be Given
This Forenoon
r (Continued from Pag 1)
ant Drager, W. T. Richardson, bis
former deputy, or botb Drager and
Richardson had taken It.
One or Both Took
Money, State Claim
The defendant had denied tak
ing the money, Marsh continued,
and so the only conclusion left
was that Richardson had appro
priated It. unless contrary proof
could be adduced.
"If the Jury finds that the de
fendant converted the money to
his own use. Its labor is over; if
on the other hand, it finds that
the defendant got none of the
money, but that Richardson got
It and did sowith the defendant
knowledge and consent, the de
fendant is guilty as an alder and
abbetter.
"Thus if you find that the de
fendant converted the money to
bis own nse. or if the defendant
and Richardson took the money,
or If Richardson took the money
with Drager's consent, then in all
It and did so with the defendant's
would be guilty." the prosecutor
declared.
It is not necessary for the Jury
to find that the treasurer took all
of the money charged In the in
dictment I23.S20.41 the prose
cutor added. "If you found that
the treasurer took only $100, he
would still be guilty."
Pinal determination of guilt,
rests on the "conversion to pri
vate use" of county money, Marsh
emphasized. " 'Converting' in this
sense the state defines as the ex
ercise of dominion or control by
an Individual over funds not his
own. Such control need not be
to his own benefit, but merely
dominion inconsistent at any one
time with the right of the county
to' those funds," he added.
Drawing Unearned
Salary In Question
Elaborating his Idea of conver
sion. Marsh asked, "Did the de
fendant have the right to write a conversation in which Richard
checks on county fund for his! son had allegedly stated that "he
own use? Can the treasurer draw
hi unearned salary?
"Office holders ask the voters
for Jobs, and the public has the
right to rely on their honor and
trrst. and on their Implied prom
ls not to write checks for per
sonal use on county funds.
"But what Is wrong with this.
if the county lost no money?
"There may be nothing wrong.
But here there was a lose of
f SJ.000. There la no need to show
criminal intent to prove guilt, nor
will Intention to return money
take form a legal defense.'
The prosecutor charged an In
creasing shortage of from 1800
to 11000 yearly after ltlS in the
treasurer's office, and that both
Drager ajid his deputy must have
known of It. "Can two men sit In
the same room for 22 years and
one of them not know of a eon
tlnaal shortage on the books they
were both charged to keep?" he
asked.
Succeeding rebuttal by the de
fense undertaken by George Rho-
ten emphasized the guilt of Rich
ardson and ignorance eC the
shortage on the part of the county
treasurer.
Ail False Entries
Held Richardson's
"The prosecutor has said that
th defendant or Richardson took
the money," Rhoten declared.
"But all false entries in county
record books are in Richardson's
handwriting. Only the voucher
dates were not changed by Rich
ardson,' and It is impossible to
say who did da this act. since the
dates are Inscribed by rubber
stamp.
"Richardson salt that he knew
of tlkt shortage, and that he cov
ered it up so as to put off the
day when its discovery would be
possible. He' said this, and then
he changed his story and said that
he covered up only one year.
After saying this he admitted
when shown the evidence that he
had covered up other years
further back. There was evidence
to- show that Richardson had
shown the shortage to Drager,
and also that he had not.
"Would all this have happened
If Drager took the money? It he
took It alone, why were all the
false entries In Richardson's
hand, and why did Richardson
aay that Drager didn't take it?
It both of them took It together,
would not some of the ledger en
tries be in Drager's hand?
Finally." he asked, "why did
Drager dismiss Richardson? He
did so because he and his deputy
weren't working together, and be
cause he had no reason to depend
on his' deputy to conceal Improper
-aoa iings with county money."
Drremdant's Surprise
Cited by Attorney
Rhoten emphasised testimony
of C C. Spears, special investiga
tor or the prosecution, which
stated that Drager had shown
"surprise" and "indignation"
which he thought were "genuine"
when first told of the shortage.

Hollywood still Is woozy over the surprise marriage of Artie Shaw,
30. swing band leader, and Lana Turner, 19, one of the most prom
ising of younger actresses. The two eloped to Las Vegas, Nev,
and are shown back at borne. Shaw was believed romantically in
clined toward Betty Grable and Miss Turner had been engaged to
an attorney for three years and had been out with him the two
previous evenings.
He also cited evidence that John
Lichty. Portland attorney for
Drager's bonding company, had
said that the company would pay
on Richardson's bond rather than
on that of Drager, thus proving
the Innocence of the latter.
"All tests show that Drager Is
Innocent beyond a reasonable
doubt." he concluded.
Testimony during the morning
session by O. D. Bower reported
was satisfied Dave Drager never
took any of the money that be
longed ta the county."
County Judge Slegmund denied
that former County Commissioner
Leroy Hewlett had ever discussed
with the county court failure of
the treasurer to submit monthly
reports, and had said in reference
to that fact. "Ton can't get any
thing out of that fellow."
"You and Mr. Hewlett didn't
get along very well, did you?"
Marsh inquired. "He didn't like
you and you didn't like him, did
you?"
"I don't know whether he does
n't like me, but I know I don't
like htm." the Judge replied.
Two Relative of
Defendant Heard
Rue Drager. the defendant's
brother. identified checks used
for paring paving assessments on
property owned in Portland by the
two of them for many years until
1938. George Drager, his son,
stated that cheeks sent him while
a student at Oregon State college
were on funds he had earned him
self or had been advanced by kls
mother.
That Richardson had denied
that Drager had ever taken money
from the county was stated by
John Klrsch, courthouse custo
dian who was a witness of the
deputy's dismissal. He stated that
Richardson had never admitted
taking money himself in response
to Maibh's questioning.
Testimony of D. W. Eyre and
H. V. Compton, bankers, was to
the effect that Drager had always
borne a reputation for probity and
trustworthiness in the commu
nity.
Concluding statements by State
Auditor Starr were to the effect
that Drager himself had asked to
come to his office to discuss the
shortage, and that he had never
laid claim to a positive ability to
distinguish Drager's handwriting
from that of Richardson as
claimed by the defendant.

for compensation , against the
United States government,
B. Read, radio station operator

matters.
Read, who once before pro
posed to furnish the city elec
tricity from a private generator,
suggested that the council could
save money by using rate L-l 9 of
the Portland General Electric com
pany, a rate which applies to pur
chasers maintaining their own
lines. A survey has convinced
me," he wrote, "that at least 20
per cent could be saved on the
downtown cluster lights."
Among ordinances passed was
one providing for application of
rates, rules and regulations to
residents outside the city limits
who connect to city sewers.
A scheduled condemnation

Crisis in Sweden
Averted by King
uuii w u ueuerea lonignc
to have averted a possible govern
ment crisis in Sweden by a dec la
ration to the people supporting
tne Swedish government's policy
of giving no direct military aid
to nniand.
He told his people that, as
much as he regretted It, the gov
ernment had no alternative but to
turn down Finland's request for
such help.
Immediately after the king's
statement, leaders of a group
which was campaigning against
the government gave up the fight
with the assertion that they could
not go against the king.
The king's declaration said
that if Sweden gave Finland out
right military assistance In her
fight with soviet Russia the coun
try certainly would be drawn Into
war between the western powers,
risk which Sweden could not
take.
Besides, be said. Finland can
get more assistance from Sweden
as a neutral than as a belliger
ent.

Altmark Incident
May Broaden War
(Continued from page 1)
on tne Karelian istnmus seemed
to move either the allies or her
Scandinavian neighbors to any
open act of war against Finland's
assailant, Russia.
Nevertheless, the pressure upon
both Scandinavian countries to
meet the impending crisis by
throwing in their lot with Fin
land under possible assurances of
full military cooperation from
London and Paris must be great.
There are obviously politically 1m
portant elements in both Norwsy
and Sweden pressing for such ac
tion. What French or British dip
lomatic agents may be doing to
shape the decision of the two
countries is not disclosed.

cording to tales of survivors.
Norwegian newspapers said that
about 100 Norwegian lives have
been lost this far in the war at

to German action, not allied.
