convinced this man was telling the
truth when he stated that be had
never heard the names before or
knew they were on the payroll. The
luna explained that often the money
for the salary demands was brought
back from Hilo by the district super
visor, and Williamson knew there
were months when the demand for sal
airy for the four men were put into
the county on separate sheet from
the regular demands.

An attempt was made to see PHrdy

word wak left for him to come to
Hilo.
Upon his arrival here he was con-
fronted by Special Prosecutor Brec-

against him, but Purdy insisted he was
innocent at first. Later he had a
talk with a Hawaiian who is familiar
with the methods of the commissions

plea OF guilty TO classifying payroll.
