tained by Circuit Judge Arlle O.
Walker, who la hearing th case.
Shaefer Witness
Leonard Bhaefer, Salem, who act
ed u business (gent until July 1,
1937, wu another morning witness.
Defense Attorney Vantermeer's
question If Bank had told him that
he (Banks) had been promised lent,
ency If he aided Rower wu ob
Jected to by the 'state, which wu
sustained.
Defense Attorney Vandermeer
and Assisting Prosecutor Oscar Hay
ter engaged in a lively little side
tilt.
"That leavu me hanging in mid
air," Vandermeer declared.
"That Is the only place a man
can hang in the air." remarked
Hayter.
"The Judge might hang you for
that remark." came the reply from
Vandermeer.
Reynolds testified that he uked
the Joint council to take Salem "off
hi hands" In June. 1937, and that
he wu relieved of his dutiea by Al
Banks, former business agent, In
January of this year. No one. he de
clares, was authorized to take mo
ney out of the union cash funds and
replace It with lOU's. Bank had
previously said that It wu customary
to "tap the till" In this manner. Rey
nolds said he objected to Banks'
writing checks and that over $300
had been charged to the organize'
tlon but he did not know for what
purpose. When he uked Banks about
It, Banks told him that It wu "for
the benefit of the boys," he declared.
Upon cross examination Reynolds
denied that he had ever talked to
Rosier about the way Banks handled
affairs but a few minutes later Mid:
Talked to Rosser
"I told Mr. Rosser that Bank did
not know the value of money or how
to handle money." This wu shortly
after the fire and he again asked
Rosser to be relieved at once, he
said. Banks wu then promoted from
business agent and took over the
secretarial duties at Salem.
Asked by Special Prosecutor Oscar
Hayter if he had ever been con
victed of a crime. Reynold replied
"Yes on a frame up." He referred
to the breaking of barber shop win'
dows In Eugene.
Dave O'Hara, state superintendent
of elections In the office of the sec
retary of state, wu called to the
stand In connection with commuta
tlon papers In the sentencing of
Fred Upson and Harold Belts, who
had testified at the trial of Dave
Rutz, business agent for the team
sters at The Dalles, who wu con
victed In a tractor sabotage case.
The papers tended to show that the
two men were offered leniency If
they would testify for the state.
Dismissal Motion Denied
Circuit Judge Arlle O. Walker
denied yesterday a motion for diS'
missal and the defense opened Its
case for Rosser.
Custer E. Ross, Salem attorney
who visited A. N. Banks, former Sa
lem teamster business agent serv
lng 13 year In prison for paying
three men $105 to fire the mill, In
jail, was the first witness. He tes
tified Bank did not Implicate Roi'
ser.
The dismissal motion wa made
by George Vanderveer, Seattle !
bor attorney defending Rosser, on
the ground that the testimony of
Banks had not been corroborated
by other witnesses.
Vanderveer held accomplices' tes
timony must be corroborated, while
Ralph E. Moody, special prosecutor
appointed by Governor Charles H.
Martin, declared "a Jury can con
vict on an accomplices' uncorrobor
ated testimony provided there Is
some evidence which tend to con'
nect the defendant with the crime."
Moody added that testimony of
some of the state' It witnesses so
tended to connect Rosser.
Confession Turned Over
Banks' alleged confession, which
Vanderveer unsuccessfully sought
previously, wu turned over volun
tartly by the state. Judge Walker
sustained a state objection against
It being Introduced u evidence by
the defense.
Paul Mumpower, Portland deteo
tlve, and Clarence A. Pott, Mult
nomah county deputy district at
torney, wtr th final witnesses for
th (tat. They testified they did

teas. Moor had testified that Mum'
power hit him In the fact 13 times
and kicked him in the back so that
he could not wok for three week.
