Ttie picket was later replaced with one on a bicycle and one of Frlesen's men out the bicycle tires, the con fession set forth. "I developed the Idea that the only way to deal with him (Frlesen) was to put him cut of business and destroy his plant." Under cross-examination Banks explained lie made this statement because he was told not to Implicate anyone else. "That whole story waa milled over In my mind for several hours, for the purpose of exonersttng everyone but myself." he said. "I had been told not to talk.

Upon cross examination Reynolds dented that he hod ever talked to Rosser about the way Banks handled affairs but a fsw minutes later said: Banks Judgment Poor t told Mr. Rosser that Banks did not know u.e value of money or bow to handle money." This was shortly alter the fire and he again asksd Rosser to be relieved at ence, he said. Banks woa then promoted from business agent and took over the secretarial duties at Salem.
