Ankeny admitted his financial trouble and the freeze-out by the Sutro company came In "May or June" of 1946 and he continued in business in stock transactions here until August or September of that year. The transaction In question in the trial, involving some $1600 given Ankenv bv Gus Anderson for 35 shares' of Marshall Field stock, was made in August. U. S. Balentine, acting as special prosecutor, drew out that Ankeny obtained a large sum of money from the Sutro company before he went to New York and that he cashed checks on a local bank amounting to "about $700" at Harold s club.

Two indictments, charging em bezzlement and larceny by bailee, were out against him. In his testimony. Ankeny has con tended that the transaction with Anderson for the Marshall Field stock was a sale and that he gave Anderson a commitment for the 35 shares. He intended to wait for a drop In the market, buy the stock and deliver it to Anderson. That procedure is known as "sell ing short." The prosecution, on the other hand, has tried to prove that in the Anderson transaction Ankeny was acting as a broker In handling money not legally his own.

The following statement, frame work for action for the coming year of all PTAs in the state, was pre sented at the closing session by Mrs. Raymond Graap of Portland, chair man of the findings committee. Conclusions "Since the program of this con vention has convinced us that the world Is truly at our doorstep, we believe that the following con clusions provide a framework of ac tion for the coming year. "We believe we must develop a deeper understanding of the world at large. Since the atomic age it Is impossible for us to ignore any seg ment of the world s population. "In this new world, with Its em phasis on technological development and material things, we must sup port action which will bring about the well-being of all peoples. We must do this not only as a moral obligation, but as our only real means of survival. "Since the family unit is basic to the promotion of this objective, we urged that a larger part of the school and teacher training program be devoted to courses in family life education. "We further urge that the Parent Teacher association be the coordina tor between home and school In the development of this program. "A constant effort should be made to bring the parent Into actual con tact with the school situation on the pre-school, elementary and high school level by means of study groups, meetings with school ad ministrators and Individual parent conferences. "We go on record as ennoisliut the local public health services act of 1948. recognising the necessity for the coordination of health planning. Full cooperation of local units Is es sential to the end that all children may receive equal health benefits. "We also endorse legislation whlAt will give full voting privileges to all cltlrens. The eooiwratlou of local units In promoting the passage ot the charter amendment dealing with voter qualifications la a defi nite part of this program. ' "We have been given proof at this convention that education, engi neering and enforcement promote physical safety In any community. "Therefore, we favor the enlarge ment of our safety program along these hues. We further recommend Unit drive training programs be aided by local units whenever pos sible In coo)eratlon with school ad ministrators. "We are firmly convinced that the public has as much ol an investment in radio as has the Industry Itself. We shall therefore continue at all times to give the fullest possible publicity and support to all worth while programs and at the same time we shall oppose with equal vigor those radio programs that deal largely In violence, crime and death. "We recommend continued effort to bring about general public recog nition of the vital role of education in a democracy and the consequent importance of the teacher in our national life. As a practical demon stration ot our lalth. we shall con tinue to make scholarships available t' qualified candidates who propose to enter the teaching prolession in the elementary field. "These Unngs we have set down not only as recommendations but as essential safeguards lor the ultimate welfare ol our own children and our own homes. "However, something vital will be lost if at Uie same tune we are not equally concerned that children in every land have these same rights and these same saieguards. They and we will grow in spiritual strength as we work to achieve these rights. "Whether we like It or not, this is today "One World." If we wish our civilization to survive and If we wish to set Uie pattern of that civilization, we must not depend en tirely on forms of organization or on material things. We must resolve anew that without firm and deeply laid spiritual and religious founda tions, we cannot succeed In building this better world which Is our chil dren's heritage."
