SENSATIONAL
BY JOHNSON
Former President Jacksonville
Bank Declares Collins Of
fered Pay Note if He Would
Swear Falsely on Stand-
Admits Making False Dq-
posits Hooper Testifies.
Sensational testimony was offered
this morning in the circuit court by
V. Ht Johnson, (forinor .president and
cashier of JJie defunct Bunk of Jack-
. KonviilOi in the irfal of Ben M, Col
li na, a -Grants PaH auto dealer, foi
mer. ci .cl.vrk of AJudford, and aJo
; a former cashier of the Bank of
't Jacksonville. ' ' v
On October 17th, shortly after the
' bank wus closed, Collins camo to see.
me In the county Jail," Johnson tes
tified, "and after a short conversation
i told me that tho bank examiners were
pressing hlm for the notes he owed.
He also owed me personally $2800,
for money which I had advanced him
Ho suggested that he would pay this
$2800, not all at once, but in partial
amounts, one hundred dollars before
the end of tho week, if I would swear
falsely about his notes being paid."
Questioned further about tho al
leged transaction, Johnson testified
ho let the proposition "go by default,
. as I was not in any position to accept
or reject and any payments might
make on what he owed me would
have been acceptable. I do not think,
.however, that I left tbe impression
that I would swear falsely."
Fictitious Deposits.
Previous to this testimony, John-
' son testified" that he had made fic
titious deposits in the bank books to
cover up overdrafts of Collins, and
that the latter had requested him to
ex ton d credit so he could carry on his
auto business at Grants Pass, and
. eventually pay thi notes duo.
Johnson also -identified a ledger
sheet with pejieil notations showing
that Collins actually owed $725.50,
when the ledger figures showed but
$27.60. The witness admitted this
procedure was taken to deceive the
bank examiners. '
The indictment against Collins
charges "aiding and abetting a bank
cashier to defraud a bank."
The former bank president testi
fied freely regarding the tangled web
of finance surrounding the opera
tion of the closed institution, and
maintained a calm outward appear
ance, "except when telling of tho al
leged jail conversation with the de
fendant. Ho identified checks and
notes as rendered by Collins. Some
of the notes were drawn in 1114 and
1915,. and tho defense objected to
their entrance as exhibits on the
grounds that tha -statute of limita
tions had expired. - The court over
ruled the objections and exceptions
were taken - Iueh of the evidence
given by Johnson was linked with the
'retirement of .ho defendant. as cash
ier' 'of tho same bank.
' Jotmsoit' CroHM-Kxa mined. .
-a Upon; cross i examination Johnson
said that he , honored sight drafts
scat by, Collins from Grants Pass
were paid, and. credited to Collins ac
count, as far as he remembered. De
fense then handed Johnson a check
for $500, signed by Collins tin a
Grants Pass bank, which Was not
credited on tho ledger sheet, known
as "Exhibit A." Other checks sent by
Collins, some credited, some not, were
offered as evidence. The checks were
drawn on the First National Bank of
Grants Pass to cover sight drafts, and
objections of the state werd overruled,
Johnson said that Collins told him
also he was "working diligently to
pay off his obligations to the bank."
Tho defense also offered another
large number of checks sent by Col
lins to the Bank of Jacksonville for

To Lose Income Tax
Case Now Pending
WASHINGTON", March II.
Solicitor General Frierson, in
dosing the government's argu-
meat today in the "corporafe
bond tax case" before the su
preme court, conceded formally
that the internal revenue bu
reau had erred in assessing as
! profit the difference between
the market value of an invest-

on a subsequent date of sale.
U the court accepts Mr. Frier
son's view, as Associate Justico

of dollars in taxes already have
been paid, win bo annulled.

WIASHIXGTOX,, Much 11. Indi
cations that the governmental reor
ganization proposed by the new ad
ministration may await congressional
study p fthe matter were seen today
in a statement by Herbert Hoover,
secretory of commerce.
Mr. 'Hoover in the- statement, Ms
first since becoming head 'of the

ture of his department "in its abili
ties to meet the needs of our indus
tries itnd trade must await the thor-H
ough reorganization of the whole
legislative machinery now being vig
orously undertaken by congress.
The congressional study o depart
mental reorganization is being .made
by-. joint committee of tho senate
and house headed by Senator Smoot
of Utah and Representative Tieavis
of Nebraska. Secretary Hoover stat
ed that "we must consider pur trans
portation'; moth railway and marine
as one system directed to serve the
ration as a whole. To follow this
line of thought to its conclusion, it
was said in some quarters, would
bring about the creation possibly of
a department of transportation en
trusted with the work now perform
ed by the inter-state commerce com
mission, the shipping hoard and a
number of other agencies,"
