Edward M. Martin, attorney, living
In Kairacres, was ordered dismissed
from the Lion Bonding company case

Attorney Kinsler Friday.
“A very thorough investigation has
shown us that Mr. Martin had noth
ing whatsoever to do with the crimes
we are charging against the defend
ants in the Lion Bonding rase,” said
Mr. Kinsler. ‘‘On the contrary, he
opposed these things and finally re
signed from his position ns director.
A bill sent in by him after the com
