County Judge Bunnell and Com

last week from Portland where
they conferred with officials of the
federal forest service in the Inter
ests of the Malln-Bieber road. While
the bill ha. passed both houses
making this road a primary state
highway of the class "A" division,
the governor ha. previously an

measure. It is hoped that federal

Myers yesterday by Cassidy, and it was based on this letter
that Myers recommended dropping of the charges.
"In reference to the case of the state of Oregon vs. B. F. Moe,
now pending in Justice court for Linkrille district, Klamath county,
Oregon, I desire to state that Mr. B. F. Moe has made full and com
plete settlement and payment of all accounts or funds due the Pine
Tree Theatre, Inc., of Saa Francisco.
"Mr. Moe has explained the differences in account with oar
company, which arose over various sight drafts and checks given by
Mr. Moe at various times, which he had reason to believe would be
honored and tor unexpected reasons, were not honored on presenta
tion. Upon investigation we find such drafts and checks were issued
by him through the First National bank of Klamath Falls, Oregon.
I further find from Mr. Moe's statement, which have been corrobor
ated, that some difference, in account arose through a misunder
standing and negligence in bookkeeping records on his part. Mr.
Moe states that there was no criminal Intent to defraud the Pine Tree
theatre and we are disposed to accept this statement. Owing to the
fact that all accounts have been adjusted satisfactory to the com
pany, and the further fact that upon his arrest, he voluntarily re
turned to Klamath Falls, we are inclined to believe that there waa
no criminal intent upon his part and hence would recommend that
the criminal proceeding now pending against B. F. Moe, should be
dismissed.
(Signed) "PINE- TREE THEATRE, INC.
"By FRANK A. CASSIDY."
The News has no apologies to offer for its stories printed
in connection with "Bud's" case. It is not only the purpose,
but the duty of a newspaper to print such, stories. Telegrams
had been sent to cities all along the coast, asking for Moe's
apprehension, and charging him with felony. The word of
George Mann was pledged at the sheriff's office to sign the
complaint in case Poole did not.
But "Bud" Moe has been exonerated by the courts. The
News wishes to be among the first to congratulate "Bud," and
wishes him every success in the world in whatever lies in
future.
