+ Statement Of AttOrney.General
A lengthy statement was made to
the court by the Attorney General.
Counsel for the defendant before
the noon recess having made a motion
to dismiss and the same having been
denied by the court, and the court hav-
ing at that time made certain sugges-
tions and statements with reference
Ito various matters, some OF which are
directly and some only collaterally in
volved in the proceedings pending be-
fore the mag gistrate, the state makes
the following statement preliminary
to and in support of it's motion here
after to be made" said Mr.. Johnson's
statement
The statement recited the evidence
offered by the state, saying that docu-
ments and records showed that J. J.
Hastings, when vice-president Of the
Scandinavian bank, "took $4,000 from
the general assets Of the Scandinavian
American Bank to cover the same put
in note of the United States Sisal
Trust, signed by himself as trustee;
that thereafter and on the Goth day OF
January, 1919, draft was drawn on
him personally by one T. P. Harvey
who was at that time in general
charge Of the United States Sisal
Trust promotion scheme at Miami,
Fla, in the sum Of $4,000; that at that
time the vice-president J. J. Hastings,
took out of the general assets OF the
bank $4,000 and not out of his own
funds, to pay said draft and that the
same was paid; that at the same time
he put in to cover the withdrawal Of
funds note purporting to be exc
cuted by the United States Sisal Trust
by himself as trustee; that at that
time the United States Sisal Trust was
promotion scheme and did not exist
either as a corporation, partnership,
! association or common law trust; that
the money thus taken from the bank
| IN these two occasions was used in
promoting the scheme, and that an
understanding had previously been ar
rived at to which the said Hastings,
Harvey and A. G. Townley were par
ties; that anaggregate sum of $4,000
should ,,e advanced to assist in the
Fpromotion of such scheme, the United
States Sisal Trust"
| Wants Grand Jury
The statement further reviewed the
evidence and concluded:
'In view of the fct that the magis-
trate has indicated that in his opinion
| insufficient foundation has been laid
to entitle the state to introduce evil
dence to connect the defendant, A. C..
ToWney, with the transaction which
we charge constitutes an embezzle-
ment, we deem it proper at this time
to apply to the Court for the dismiss
sal of this complaint without preju-
dice to the mmencement of other
proceedings relating to this transac-
ton, should such action be justified
| in the opinion of the state authorities.
And in connection with this motion we
deem it proper to observe that the ma
gistrate has indicated from the bench
that the evidence here has disclosed
the condition of the business of the
Scandinavian-Amer Bank to be in
such muddle that it was and is the

letic stadiums for their own
amusements and do all manner of
work in their own behalf. Engi-
neers, architects, mechanics and

developed among both officers and
men SO that almost any task no

can be accomplished without call
ing for outside aid.
Cost Per Marine Is Cut.
Not the least interesting of the
achievements of the marines in
the line Of efficiency has been the
work done by accounting experts
and economists. These have
made an economic survey of the
corps with a view to establishing
the most economical and efficient
systems with the result that costs
have come down in a surprising
manner and efficiency has beon
raised to even higher standards.
The effect Of these economics IL
best shown in the returns of the
marine corps quartermasters de-
partment, which show that, ex-
elusive Of pay, the cost of main
tanning a marine in 1919 was
$1,127 for the year. and in 1920
1858. In 1921 it had fallen to
1924, while for the current year
the marine corps estimates that
S459 per men will be sufficient.
It points with pride to the fact
that the actual expense for the
maintenance of $1,000 men for this
year will be only about nine and
one-half millions, whereas in 1920,
for maintaining $4,000 men, the
cost was more than seventeen mil
lions.

introduced by Senator Jones, re-
publican, Washington, as one that

At OUTS OVER
POLICY CHANGES
Secretary of the Interior
ReSents propaganda
Emanating From the De-
partment Of Agriculture"

~ Regardless of whether or not
Secretary of the Interior Fan in
tends to resign, as has been rumor-
ed, 1t appears that there is friction
in President TIarding'5 cabinet. The
Chicago Tribune last \ onday pri1.
ed a dispatch from its Washingt,
correspondent to the effect that
there is a controversy between Sec
retaries Fall and Wallace and the
former has protested to President
Harding. The article follows:
The controversy | tween Secre-
,tary Of Interior Fall and Secretary
of Agriculture Wallace reached an
acute stage today when Mr.. Fall
disclosed that he had protested to
President Harding ainst the cir
culation of vicious propaganda
emanating from the department Of
agriculture"
The row has grown out OF Sec
rotary Falls advocacy of legislation
which would transfer the forest
service from the agriculture de-
partment to the interior depart
ment and place the disposition OF
natural resources in Alaska under
the interior department.
Secretary Wallace and Forester
Greeley have vigorously opposed
the reorganization sponsored by
Mr.. Fall, who also has been at
tackled by Clifford Pinchot and
other conservationists on the
ground that the proposed legisla-
ton would open the way to selfish
exploitation of the forest and other
resources.
Reports have been current for
some time that Mr. Fall is becom-
ing dissatisfied with his position in
the administration and contem-
plates resigning shortly. That such
is his intention he denied tonight.
secretary Wallace declined to COM
ment on the row, remarkirG: :,
"When the tine comes I viii
make a statement and there Is
much to be said"
It was in n letter to a congress-
man that Mr.. Fall referred to
press clipping sheet issued by the
American Forestry association and
said:
~ was absent when this sheet
apnoared. The chiefs of several
Of the bureaus Of this department
whose efforts to administer the
public laws are so frequently ham,
nered by activities o. the forest
bnreau and of Mr.. clifford Pinchot,
were outraged at this vicious and
attack,
oT was urged to take the matter
up directly with the president, ana
to call his attention to the impro,-
prietv (to say the lcart) of such
nractice. replied by wire to the
secretaries OF the
department that it would he an
right to. call the attention of the
president to the matter" =.

ideas do not meet with the ap-,
proval of certain narrow minded
and biased bureaucratic govern
ment officials and their followers

held UP to ''execration, pubic
abuse and private calumny'"
