AT BANKS HOI
AS TM OPENS
(Continued from Page One.)
Banks believed the door would be
broken down. He viewed the officers
as marauders.
"Then, under the mental strain of
many months, 'he fired. He couldn't
see. But the bullet sped Its way,
and killed George Fresco tt."
Attorney Hamrnersly, in his re
marks, pictured Banks aa "a fiery
crusader, battling for the rights of
the underdog" and "paying cash for
the first time In the history of Jack
son county for fruit, and saving
(800,000 a year for the small grow
ers." He traced Banks ancestry back
to the Mayflower, and reviewed his
life, from a young man in Ohio, until
he was induced by a friend to make
an investment in, Rogue River val
ley. Mention of his father visibly
artected Banks.
"Defendant Banks accumulated a
considerable fortune by his fruit dis
tributing business in Ohio one of
the largest agencies of Its kind In
the country. He lost everything In
the panic of 1907. In the language
of the street, he was "wiped out
completely.
"He knew the fruit business," con
tinued Hammersly. "He came to
California. From 1010 to 1926. he
transacted a business that totaled
more than $20,000,000. He was op
erating as an independent buying
for cash. He came in conflict with
other interests, buying on assign
ments." The coming of Banks was outlined
then by his counsel, to the Rogue
river. He made an Initial Invest
ment of 125,000, the attorney said,

"and then, perhaps fascinated by the
beau t lea of southern Oregon, pur-
chased 650 acre of orchard land."
His entry into the newspaper field
was then told. "Defendant Banks :
was not a newspaper editor he was'
not a writer. He denounced the I
packing association, bankers, and j
other big Interests. Again he was
brought Into conflict. It grew in 1
tensity, until it culminated In the
tragedy of March 18. He was a cru
sader in his views."
Assistant Attorney -General Moody
confined the state's case to the events
of March 16. After the Introductory
remarks, Attorney Moody, his rich
voice booming to the farthest corner
of the courtroom, said, "The state
expects to prove the following foots,
and so doing will receive & verdict
of conviction.
"In February of thla year, a burg
lary took place In the courthouse of
Jackson county, at Medford, Oregon,
and official ballots were stolen from
a vault. On March 15, last, the grand
Jury of Jackson county returned an
indictment. Among those indicted
was this defendant, L. A. Banks. The
indictments were reported to the cir
cuit court.
"Bench warrant were issued for the
arrest of tte indicted men, and placed
In the hands of Constable George J.
Prescott, because the sheriff was
among the Indicted men. Constable
Prescott, assisted by the state police
and other officers, started to serve
the warrants. Some arrests had al
ready bwn mode."
Attorney Moody then described dra
matically the incidents Immediately
proceeding the fatal shooting, as fol
lows: Mr. prescott and Officer O'Brien
of the state police went to the front
door of the Banks home at 1000 West
Main street, In the city of Medford.
They rapped, and Mrs. Banks opened
the door, asking:
"Who is thero?"
Mr. Prescott replied: "I am sorry,
but I have a warrant for the arrest
of your husband, Mr. Banks."
"The door was opened five or six
inches," Moody continued, as the
packed courtroom and Jury listened
with high interest," held by a burg
lar chain. Mr. O'Brien looked through
the window of the door. He saw Mr.
Banks, 30 or 35 feet away, and he
had in his hand a Newton 30-. 08 6
high-powered big game rifle. Mr.
O'Brien saw him aiming deliberately
at the door. He said to Mr. Prescott,
'Look out!' and started to press him
away, but thla defendant shot
through the flve-lnoh crack In the
door. The bullet hit Mr. Prescott'e
hand as he was withdrawing the war
rant, and passed Into the body, caus
ing practically Instant death. Mr,
PTescott did not live long enough to
complete the sentence on his lips.
"Officer O'Brien stood so close to

his companion that the blood from
the hand wound splattered on his
clothing, and splinters from the door,
as the bullet passed througfh the
edge, hit him in the eye. For safe
ty's sake. O'Brien laid down on the
porch. He then looked through an
other window, and saw Banks re
loading bis rifle. He knew It would
be suicide to enter. He went for
assistance.
"Immediately following the crime
Mr. Banka was cool, calm and col
lected. Immediately following the
crime. Mrs. Banks was calm, cool and
collected. They acted with dellbera
tlon and premeditation," Attorney
Moody declared.
The chief state attorney declared
that E. A. Fleming, Jacksonville or
chardlst, "will testify that shortly
after he arrived at the Banks home,
Banka aald to him:
"I understand there are warrant
out for my arrest. No officer will
take me. If they try It, I will walk
out over their dead body."
Fleming, counsel said, tried to dis
suade Banks, who replied: "X am
going to do tt."
"Fleming will testify further.1
Moody declared, "that when the rap
came, Mrs. Banks started for the door,
and as she did so, said to her mate
" The of flcera are here. ' s"
Banks replied, the state said Flem
ing will UaUfy:
"Hand them the letters Z dlstated
this morning," The letters, address
ed to the heads of the state police
and city police, declared Banks would
not submit to arrest, and threatened
bloodshed.
"Just before the fatal shot was
fired," Fleming will testify, "Banks
called to his wife, oVl out I' and ahe
stepped out of range.
"There were other people In the
Banks home that tragic morning.
From the witness stand they will tell
you that Banks told them: Oo away,
there might be trouble.' "
Mrs. Banks' "proceed In order" note
to the officers was also cited.
"The evidence the state will present
will warrant a conviction of these two
defendants at your hands.' Every
essential fact wilt be proven, beyond
reasonable doubt."
Attorney Moody. In his opening
statement, made no mention of the
death penalty.
Attorney Hammersly of the d
fense said during the recess that the
defense would be "a general defense
of not guilty, which permits the use
of all defenses." However, from his
speech, court observers drew the con
clusion self-defense, defense of the
home, and groat mental strain, would
be stressed.
During the opening statement of
Attorney Moody. Banks waa visibly
nervous, and at one time his brother-in-law,
Charles P. Moran of Cleve
land, O., placed hie hand on his
shoulder, and comfortingly patted
Park
him. B--nks visibly brightened after
Attorney Hammersly started speak
lng. and conferred often with At
torneys Phlpps and Enrlght.
Mrs. Charles P. Moran, a sister of
Banks, occupied a seat by Mrs. Banka
Wednesday arte moon. Mrs. Banks
sat with bowed head, most of tha
afternoon, in a very solemn mood,
seldom lifting her eyes from the
floor.
The jury of six men and alx worn
en paid keen attention to both at
torneys. The courtroom was "full,
with a large crowd in the hallway.
The defense asked that all witneasea
be excluded, leaving a large vacant
space. Spectators were then admit
ted, as the court admonished, "Now
don't let the whole town In, Mr
Bailiff." When court adjourned, tha
