DICKENSON
RELEASED
RECnANC
E
Warren Dlckonaon, who was
held hero In tha county jail on a
charge of taking and using an
automobile without consent of
(ho owner, hns been released on
bis own recognizance. Dickon
sou, It is understood, has return
ed to Bend, where ha was ar
rested for Klamath county offi
cers on charges preferred by
W. II. Rhodes, Klamath Falls.
Dickenson was bound over to
the county grand Jury after a
preliminary hearing by Justice
of tho Pence Joo Mahoncy, and
tlio chnrgo against him still
stands.
Claims Mad
Rhodes alleged that he left his
cur ut his residence, 611 Roose
velt street, when he left for Tex
as in October, 1041. Ho claims
Hint Dickenson removed the cnr
from tho property and used it,
Inter obtaining a permit from au
thorities hero to drive it without
a regular license to Bend, with
out permission of Rhodes or
Rhodes' attorney, F. O. Small.
District Attorney L. Orth Slsc
more said Hint Dickenson went
to Small, when Rhodes was
awny, nnd told Small that
Rhodes' car wos exposed to pos
sible thievery. Ho suggested
Hint lie storo tho cur and Small
told him to go ahead, although
Small did not authorize him to
Uiko the cnr to Bend or to use It.
Return Askad
When Rhodes returned to
Klnmnth Falls in October, 1042,
ho found tho cnr gone from the
Roosevelt street property, and
began a systematic search for It.
Ho claims ho reported the car
as missing, but received no as
sistance from police In finding it.
Rhodes finally discovered Hint
Dickenson had gone tj Bend. He
wroto to Dickenson at Bend,
asking him. to bring the car back.
Dickenson did not bring It back,
and Rhodes went to Bend. He
claims Dickenson refused to let
hir,". have the car, and Rhodes
then returned to Klamath Falls
and filed the charge against
Dickenson.
Car Not Returned
Dickenson was arrested and
Deputy Sheriff Dalo Mattoon re
turned him to Klamath Falls.
Rhodes said he has been un
ablo to get his car back., Ho as
serts that Inw enforcement offi
cers should see to It the car Is
returned to him.
Dickenson claimed, It was
learned, that Rhodes owed htm
$125 for work on a truck which
Rhodes owned, and was holding
tho car for that reason. Dicken
son and Rhodes had made a deal
before Rhodes left whereby
Dickenson was to use tho truck
and do somo work on it, Rhodes
said, and asserts that the truck
wos to earn whatever It cost
Dickenson to work on it. Ho
further mode the point that
Dickenson had not taken the car
by any process of law, and even
If a debt were owed, which he
denies, Dickenson could not le
gally tnke tha car in that man
ner. Possessions Scattered
Rhodes said when he returned
to Klamath Falls after tho year
In tho south, ho could not find
either his cnr or his truck. Ho
finally found tho truck In a back
