BUCHTEL
IN FAVOR
OF VIADUCT
Meeting Tonight at
Commercial Club to
Discuss Matter of
Hearing
That the public service commis
sion of Oregon will act favorably
toward the proposed construction
of a viaduct over the Southern Pa
cific tracks near the fairgrounds
on the Pacific highway is intimat
ed in a letter received by T. K.
McOroskey, secretary of the Com
mercial club from Fred G. Buchtel
member of the commission, this
morning.
Upon receipt of the letter Mr.
McCroskey sought information
from Herbert Nunn, state high
way engineer, regarding the filing
of an application for a hearing.
Mr. Nunn reported that the mattei
was in the hands of J. M. Devcrs,
attorney for the highway commis
sion, and that the application
would be filed within a short
time.
A meeting will be held tonight
in the Commercial club for tne
purpose of hearing the report of
the committee of the organization
which has been instrumental In
having plans made for the con
struction of the viaduct, and a',
which J. B. McCullock will give
an idea of the cost. Everyone in
terested in the matter is urged to
be there. The matter of a hearing;
before the public service comixiis
sion will also be taken up.
The letter from Mr. Buchtel to
McCroskey follows In part:
"It appears that any move for
the elimination of the grade cross
ing at the point mentioned should
have consideration as well the
removal of the grade crossing over
the Silverton road adjacent to the
highway. This plan would of
course require certain road chan
ges, but it seems very advisable in
view of the heavy traffic sustain
ed by both these highways.
"Assuring you of the prompt
consideration of this commission
at such time as the highway com
mission outlines their plans and
presents their case, we are,
"Yours truly.

Federal Reserve

Staling that the federal reserve

the county.
"You can't have prosperity in
Salem or any other community,
unless that prosperity begins

BOND FORFEITED BY
FEDERAL JUDGE AND
SEARCH IS STARTED
Co-Defendant In Alleged Timber Claim Fraud
Here Is Fugitive From Justice; Todd Re
fused Separate Trial and Case Is Advanced
to November 15, by Order of Court
Portland, Ore., Oct. 24. United States District Judge C.
E. Wolverton this morning forfeited $5,000 bond posted for
Carlos L. Byron and ordered a new bench warrant issued and
bail set at $20,000, after being informed by United States
Attorney Lester W. Humphreys that Byron is a
from justice.
At the same time Judge Wolverton refused the request of
John W. Todd for a separate trial and set the trial over from
October 31 to November 15 to allow department of justice
agents time to find Byron. A nation wide search for Byron
has been instituted.
Humphreys told court while opposing Todd's request for
separate trial that this trial would probably cost the gov
ernment $10,000.
Since Byron was paroled from McNeils Island prison he
has been indicted for another similar land fraud case in
Seattle and cannot be located by Washington federal author
ities. While arguing case Todd's counsel said Todd was as much
a victim as any of the victims named- in the indictment.
Humphreys answered this argument by stating that conceal
ment of Byron's criminal record by Todd is one of the ele
ments of this case, as Byron was not known in Salem and
Todd was.
Latest revised list in federal attorneys' hands shows total
losses of Salem victims to be $58,250.
