of receiving teller. testified in his own
examined concerning the checking Of
his accounts and the discovery OF the

Dyer said that when he discovered
the shortage he did not report II be-
cause he thought that the missing

cided 10 wait reasonable time. He
said that when his accounts were
checked UP on October I he borrowed
S61.50O from Teller Ferguson TO make
his cash balance and that after the
accounting he returned the borrowed
money 10 Ferguson. Later that day
Cashier Johnson again came to his
cage 10 check him up, stating his pur-
pose Dyer testified
Il said. All right and then ] went
TO my fathers Office and told him
that they We're counting me up and
would find me S6I 500 short After tell

cage"
Dyer then told OF being questioned
by Secret Service Chief Wilkie, and
finally OF being removed from his po-
sition pending his Indictment

and after hearing evidence in rebuttal
from the Government court adjourned
until tomorrw morning
