It was on the basis of circumstan ces in one of these previous coses that Defense Attorney David B. Evans asked for a directed verdict, which was denied by the court. Thin point hinged on the part of a third party in a statutory offense o the kind In question. Cases are Cited One of the previous coses cited oc curred In England In the seventeenth century. A North Carolina cose was also cited, and a third case, based to a certain extent on the Carolina case, was also considered. Defense Attorney Evans opened bis drive for a directed verdict, immedi ately at the close of the state's testi mony, and, losing by the court's de cision to submit the case to the jury, was presenting defense testimony Monday afternoon. Time Element Important. That time will play an important element in the defense was indicated from the outset, when Attorney Evans cnlled A. A.

A battery of hiahly-paid attorneys, counsel for the militant public utili ties mngnate. sought a permanent in junction, preventing Konsns from barring Doherty'a cities service stock from sale in the state. The state was represented by talent from the at torney general's office. The legal battle was the opening gun in the three-cornered ficht, which already has led Doherty to file a $12, OOO.O.

Curl Newcomer, Konsns blue sky law commissioner, issued on onb'r forbidding sule of cities sTvicr securi ties in the state on grounds that the stocks were "worthless or almost worthless' because of prior claims to the property they financed, Duherty's answer was a lashing attack on both the governor and the newspaper, and six libel suites.

Directors of Lane Chamber To Be Asked To Confer On Problems. The directors of the Eugene cham ber of commerce at a special session Monday noon voted to get in touch with the directors of tho Lone county chamber of commerce to arrange for a joint meeting and discussion of city, county and school district, tax prob lems in Lane county and the changes which hove been suggested by Gover nor Meier to eliminate local control. Although no action for or against the Meier plan was token at the meet ing many members nro opposed to the idea of centralizing power in a state commission at Salem. Likewise many feel that tho amount of re trenehment should be determined by local judgment as to what is neces sary. It was pointed out that for several yenrs past, the larger taxing units in Lnno county voluntarily have called in special committees of citizens to ad vise them on budget problems. The school board in Eugene has hod an ad visory commission of five; tho city nn advisory commission of seven and the county an advisory commission of three. In the case of the county the advisory commission is provided for by low. One mntter suggested for discus sion ot the proposed joint meeting is the consolidation or coordination of these advisory commissions so that budgeting for all of tho major divis ions in the county can be worked out simultaneously. It was pointed that It was loreely through the action of these advisory commissions that the Eugene school board and Eugene city council three years ago began their program of re tiring bonded and warrant deht and curtailment of operating expenditure, programs which are already well along. County Judge C. P. Barnard said Monday that county officials would be glad to cooperate in tho Ioenl move ment to coordinate local expenditurns and save money wherever possible. School officials and city offieinls are also favorable to such studies. Though a. special session of the legislature Is being promoted to make changes in the state laws necessary to effect the Meier program, it h con sidered rather unlikely that any sub stantial changes could be worked out prior to December when all local bud gets must go in, VANCOUVER.

In the background looms the reparations question, with its politico! uncertain ties and considerations both at home nnd abroad, its oucstions of ability to pay, its problems of international trade and finance. Before the World war Germany was a large lender in other nations. Now she has become a heavy borrower, with a foreign debt approximating 1.0,M10,000.MJ(J marks. Her unemploy ment problem is serious, for 5,tXtO,000 persons are out of work. Kho has lost the favorable trade balance which only last year enabled her to wrest from Great Britain second place honors as au exporting country. Foreign capital, alarmed at the more serious turn in conditions in the Reich, began its exodus several months ago, nnd In tha last few weeks it baa reached the serious total of around ono and a hn If billion marks. The (tornian people likewise, it is re ported, hove been converting their funds into dollars, francs, pounds sterling, nnd J Mitch florins, thus adding to the Roichshank's difficul ties in supporting the mark. (Stren uous measures were tnken to hnlt this outflow. The discount rote was raised. Large foreign credits were con tracted at the world's financial cen ters. President Hoover's war debt holiday revived confidence but mo mentarily and the flight of the mark wos renewed vigorously only lost week. A thousand of Germany's lar gest corporations offered a CtX)(0OO, 00H hank guarantee fund. Foreign investors in Germany were frightened last fall by the success of tlio radicals in the nntional election. The recall of funds however, did not assume alarming proportions until recently when Germany seemed on the verge of availing herself of the mora torium provisions in the Young plan. Germany's rapid industrial recovery following tho World war was almost phenomenal. Aided by huge foreign loans, mostly from this country, she npplir-d herself strenuously to the dif ficult task of reconstruction, although handicapped by the loss of her col onies and important supplies of raw materials. But the recession in her business abroad from tiie post-war peak reached nbout n year ago, was rapid an-J in May, her exports dropped to the lowest point in twenty yenrs excepting the war period.

He blamed his bank's crash on the press for tho political opposition which "crystallis ed vague fears into the one specific fear that our bank was unsound." Meantime the cnblnet, whose mem bers are worn by the constant ses sions of several days past remained on the job. Dr. Hans Luther, whose efforts to obtain French participation in a foreign credit for the Reichsbank were unsuccessful in that the govern ment declined to accept conditions imposed by France, left by plane this morning for Basel to attend a meeting of the world bank directors there. Appeal to People Chancellor Bruening'a government appealed to the German people to keep their heads in this time of finnncinl distress and not to make things worse by losing confidence in the fntherlnnd. "President noover's moratorium plan afforded a great relief to our economic situation," a proclamation issued in the name of the govern ment asserted, "a large sum which Germnny was entitled to claim toj retain could, by virtue of that plan be restored to the banks.
