decision on Lieutenant Governor'
Walter II. Jnrgensen's motion for a
new trial on an embezzlement con
viction until Saturday. March 5.
His announcement came at the
conclusion of oral arguments in
which Defense Attorney Richard F.
Stout asserted that the lieutenant
governor "was convicted of a crime
with which he was not charged."
Jurgensen was found guilty by a
district court recently of embezzling
$549.71 from Chester C. Kaderli, rail
road station agent at Potter. The
lieutenant governor was not on hand
today, but Judge Chappell asked that
he be present next week.
Stout's contention that Jurgen
sen was not charged wtih embezzling
$!)1G in building and loan stock, but
with money, met with vigorous re
buttle by County Attorney Max Towle
v, ho prosecuted the case.
"Jurgensen knew what he was
charged with." Towle said. "There
was only one Kaderli, 'one Totter,
Nebraska and only one stock trans
action. "It is the same old story of the
man being charged by the attornev
of shooting a cow with a white spot
and it turns out to be a pink spot."'
The county attorney observed that ;
the higher courts were giving less'
attention to "technicalities" and,
more to "righteousness and justice." j
Stout cited cases to show that the
charge of embezzling money and the'
charge of embezzling building and
loan stock were entirely distinct and j
