he was foreman and he said it had gone into the closed banks.

Fired by Judge, Says Juror

“Judge Frank Baker fired us,” Mr. Sullivan said. “Do you mean after you had taken testimony in the bank cases?” Rep. Andrews asked. “Yes,” Mr. Sullivan said. Mr. Sullivan said Judge Baker

| “told us not to pay any attention | 'to the State Board of Accounts |

relative to the County Auditor's office and the County School Fund loans.” He testified that Judge Baker called three grand jurors before him in his private chambers and instructed them not to investigate any reports concerning Court House offices. “Judge Baker told us all the talk about the Court House was propaganda,” Mr. Sullivan testified.

Judge Slack said he had known Pete Cancilla for four or five years | and that he had known Cancilla | and Joel Baker were friendly. He said he had known that Joel | Baker drank, but had no knowledge that he used intoxicants to excess. |

Discussed Appointment, He Says

Judge Slack said he had, prior to his appointment, known who three other members of the board were to be and that he had, before the

official appointment of Joel Baker wl

as director, very likely discussed the matter with other board members, naming specifically The Rev. Mr. Tripp and Mis, K. K. Woolling, board members. “Isn’t it a fact,” Rep. Joseph Andrews asked, “that you had decided before the first regular meeting of |

“Tt was very unwise,” Judge Slack replied. He did not approve of the disappearance of the original Senate Welfare Bill and that Joel

| Baker's activities in connection with | the disappearance were not author=- |

ized by him. He said “the attack on Mr. Cov was reprehensible, but I don’t know enough about the disappearance of

the bill to form an opinion on it.”

One of Chief Reasons

Judge Slack was asked whether his chief reason for advocating Baker's appointment was that he had known Baker gave awayv baskets at Christmas. He answered that was one of the chief reasons.
