Complaint Filed in
Court Over Shift in
Truck Own ership

Transfer of one-half interest in
three trucks by E. F. Moretti to
Leslie F. Rogers was done to de-
feat the purpose of a court judg-
ment in favor of the Sacramento
Box and Lumber company, accord
ing to a complaint filed in superior
court Wednesday.
The company alleged the amount
represented by the half interest in
the three trucks is sufficient to sat-
isfy the judgment against Moretti
as an individual, S1,036 08.
No consideration was included in
the truck transfers, the company
alleged and the machines remained
in the possession of Moretti there
after because he pretended to be
an agent of Rogers. Rogers was
accused by the company of selling
his interest to third persons to pre-
vent the company from levying
against them to satisfy judgment.
The box company asked that the
transfer of the truck interest from
Moretti to Rogers be set aside, de-
clared a fraud against the company
as a creditor, and if disposed of by
Rogers the company be awarded
judgment for the value of Moretti's
interest
In the original suit brought by
the box company the defendants
were: the S. OsWalt company, a
partnership of Bliss McCorkell,
Moretti, Frank r. Brown and j.
Sterling Oswalt and also the men
as individuals

.B0RAH STATEMENT
ON OHIO FORECAST
Lack of Finances Looms
Large in Fight for G. 0.P.
Nomination.

A definite statement from Senator
Borah of Idaho, prominently in the
race for the Republican presidential
nomiantion, is expected today or to-
morrow regarding his plans for seek
ing delegates in Ohio to the Repub-
lican National Convention. The state
ment may set at rest rumors of the
last few days that his campaign may
be curtailed.
It has been said in some quarters
that lack of financial support is max
ing it difficult for Senator Borah to
conduct pre-convention campaign
in many parts of the country. This
was given added impetus when his
friend, former Gov. Clifford Pinchot
of Pennsylvania. last week advised
him not to go into the Pennsylvania
primaries "for the reason that more
money would be required than is
available"
Undoubtedly, Senator Borah would
invade more territory in both the East
and the West if he had the funds.
Borah, his friends say, has declined
and will decline to accept financial
support from any source which might
embarrass his future course.
May Run for Reelection, Too.
Hooked up with the suggestion that
because of lack of financial support
the Borah presidential campaign may
be curtailed is report that the Sem
ator eventually will be found cam
paigning again for reelection to the
Senate. Undoubtedly the Idaho Sem
ator will not relinquish his right to
make that fight at this stage of the
political game. He will have time
to enter the Idaho senatorial race
after the presidential campaign has
cleared up. Or he might make the
race for both President and Senator
If he saw fit. There seems to be
nothing in the Idaho law to prevent.
The present Democratic Governor
of Idaho, c. Ben Ross, it is believed,
will seek the Democratic nomination
for the Senate this year, and will run
against Borah. He has been de-
scribed as "a sort of Western COM
bination of Bilbo and Huey Long"
