Trial
i ontinurd from Page One
Tavern rd Barron Luke the night
of September 11. 1943.
Mrs. Rogers took the stand in
her own behalf yesterday after
noon and began unfolding a tale
of sadism and enslavement
rarely if ever equalled in local
court records.
The of Mrs Fingers, who
is accused of murder, is being
tried before Judge Glenn E
Warner. A jury of fourteen was
completed late Monday fore
noon, two extra members being
included in the panel.
Eight of the jurors are women
- Cass county mothers and
housewives.
Prosecutor A-,a K Ha.vden of
Cass county caused surprise
when he suddenly rested the
state's case after calling a few
witnesses to the fatal shooting
Following a lengthy statement
to the jury, in which they sa*d
the (letni.se would endeavor to
prove that Mrs Rogers and An
derson had reached a point in
their relationship where ?he had
to kill him to save herself and
her husband and daughters from
being murdered by her jealous
lover, attorneys Stuart B. White
and Charles F White of Niles,
Mrs Rogers counsel, called her
to the stand as the first defense
witness.
By afternoon the Cass county
courtroom was filled with spec
tators who hung upon every soft
spoken word of the defendant
who has freely admitted that she
shot and killed her lover after
he refused to terminate their re
lationship and threatened to
“wipe out’ the whole Rogers
family.
Trees
CdJQtinued from Page One
America's national forests, and
sold with a red tag attached to
show they were properly cut
to benefit the forestland.
Some metropolitan dealers in
the east prediet that the supply
will lie only 10 per cent of nor
mal and the WPB warns that
tin* tiers may not be as per
fectly shaped as those in pre
vious years.
J. Hofert Company, Seattle,
Wash . one of tin largest Christ
mas tree shippers, expects ship
ments m the U. S. to be nearly
normal this year, although its
formerly large foreign business
will bo limited to Mexico and
Cuba because of transportation
problems.
Classed as a non-essential in
dustry. Hofert has been forced
to use women and boys this
y ear, but ha* found the new em
ployees satisfactory to handle
small trees and light work.
Crews have been working seven
days a week, but cars have been
scarce.
The company usually ships
about 3.000.000 two to 10 foot
trees in 50 cars from Washing
ton, north Idaho, western Mon
tana and British Columbia, be
tween Ov tuber and the begin
ning of December Its Canadian
unit generally ships more than
2 000.000 annually.
None of ttii dealers seems to
have a suggestion ft r a trrp sub
stitute, tint some point out that
trees can be rut in half so that
one can do the work of two. And
there s no particular shortage
predicted for the processed min
iature table sues.
