Eugene Wolcott of Des Moines, Iowa, 250 Refugees Land At Boulogne-Sur-Mer Boulogne-Sur-Mer, Prance, Jun 31 OJ.R) A party of 350 German Jewish refugees landed Tuesday from the liner St. Louis, ending their traglo trans-Atlantlo Odyssey after they had been barred from Cuba. The refugees will be housed In hotel for two days, during which French authorities will decide whe- ther they shall be assigned to speci fic residence somewhere In France or be allowed to choose their own homes. Cooperating with French relief committees, representatives of Amer ican organizations undertook to de fray all expenses and reimburse the French government for any money It spent. The American com mittee agreed to move the refugees as soon ss Immigration quotas in the United States and other coun tries are open. Just what day. the money waa taken from the till. He said some warrants did not have a stamp showing date of payment, m fact. It waa brought out that there would be no way of showing any day of any year the money might have been taken from the till and the only way auditors would have of ascertaining the mo ney wss gone would be in attempted balance at the end of the year and "with the set of books that was kept perfect cover-up could be made by persons taking money out of the till and something would have to be done to cover up at the end of the year. No Monthly Statement Marsh also brought out that were would be nothing to make the man taking the money' especially afraid until the end of the year and that would give the man mora tuna to perfect a cover-up. "If I had taken tne money it wouldn't have been $33400," com mented Richardson at the end of his questioning. - - Richardson declared that no de mand had ever been made of him to prepare the monthly statements to the county court as required by law. He said "If I had been ordered to make such monthly statements d have made them according to the books. 'If you would have done that, then why did you cover upt" asked Marsh. I was deputy and Mr. Drager was my superior," answered the defend ant. "If that shortage was to be re ported It was up to him to report It, Duty Only to Drager Didn't you have a pubus trust and don't you think It was your duty as a police officer to tell some body?" asked Marsh. "That's questionable," responded the defendant. "It was my duty to tell Mr. Drager.' "And for 33 years you covered up?" "I never told en Drager and never believed he took any of the money," declared the defendant. And I don't believe so now. "You can't go two wajra on this thing," declared Marsh to the wit ness, "and say neither you nor Dra ger took the money." Yes, I can," answered Richard son. Marsh then recalled testimony given by other witnesses as to con ferences where Richardson was purported to say that either he, or Drager or both of them had to take the money, that Is, the bulk of it, it being admitted soma may have been due to errors. Questions Shortage Richardson said he had no recol lection of Including the alternative that both of them might have taken it. 'It has always been s question In my mind whether there actually has been a shortage," he said. Marsh then produced his book In which he kept a record of the grand jury proceedings and questioned Richardson as to statements pre sumably made by him voluntarily before the grand Jury. Richardson said that - ha Bad checked Drager several times to see It he was taking any money, that he even had counted the cash after him more than once and he 'couldnt find where Mr. Drager ever took a cent and I have a great question In my mind as to whether he ever did." Checking Warrants Marsh asked Richardson If tn his checking on the shortage he'd ever taken the trouble to check against the warrant lists as filed In the clerk's office by the treasurer and also against the list kept by the Chemeketans Plan rir to Bald Mt.
