Glenn Is the third of the ballot
theft defendants to go on trial the
others being J. Arthur LaDleu, for
mer business aide of Banks, and Wal
ter J. Jones of Rogue River, both
convicted.
In the LaDleu and Jones cases the
testimony revealed a portion of what
the state contends was Glenn's role
in the crime. -
The Sexton brothers, who pleaded
guilty to the charge, testified that
on the evening of the crime Glenn,
then county jailer, had propositioned
them on the basement floor of the
court house about committing the
theft, .but they demurred on the
ground "there la too much law
around": that Glenn later induced
them to go to bis office in the Jail,
and there he promised them 10
apiece and good Jobs"; that when
they told him they had burned the
contents of 18 ballot pouches In the
court house furnace and hidden the
tops, Glenn replied: "Leave them
stay there; they can't recount them,"
and that he praised them for the
thoroughness of their destroying.
The state contends that Glenn was
one of the leaders of the plot.
Glenn has been a resident of Ash
land for four or five years. He was
named county jailer last January by
suspended Sheriff Gordon L. Scher
merhorn at the reported instigation
of County Judge Earl Fehl.

plans today to build a state -wide
branch banking system throughout

bank legislation last April, the First
National bank of Portland has ex
tended Its branch banking activities
to Include the full territory of the
city of Portland.
"Now that the Glaas-Steagall bill
has been passed, the way Is clear to
establish through First National bank
of Portland a state-wide branch
banking system for Oregon similar
to the service extended throughout
California by the Bank of America.
"The initial moves in the Inaugu
ration of this program are under
way at the present time and further
acquisitions of independent units
outside the metropolitan area of Port
land are now under consideration-'
Grant's comparison of the First
Nta tonal and the Bank of America

extended Oregon system. The Bank

branches scattered through Califor

bank failures.
