For information, on 3/8/74, [REDACTED] [REDACTED] Hollywood-Rose City Branch, First National Bank of Oregon, advised that she had received a telephone call from [REDACTED], telephone [REDACTED], to the effect that [REDACTED] JACK WEITZEL, 2020 N.E. 60th Ave., had found 6 of the ransom bills in this case in money he received when cashing his Social Security check at that branch 3/7/74.
On same date, WEITZEL, who is retired and very hard of hearing, advised he had clipped and kept the list of ransom bills printed in the Journal newspaper. About 3 weeks ago he threw the clippings away. On Monday, 3/4/74, he cashed his Social Security check at the above bank and received a number of $20 bills. He decided to check the bills against the ransom list, and remembering he had thrown his copy away, he wrote down the numbers on his $20 bills on a slip of paper. He took this paper to [REDACTED] to call the bank to check them against the ransom list. [REDACTED] advised him that upon calling the bank, he learned the bills are on the ransom list.
[REDACTED] advised same date that when WEITZEL brought him the list of bills, he understood from him that the list was taken from the ransom list, that he, WEITZEL, had found 6 of the bills, and that he wanted the bank advised. [REDACTED] called the bank to advise them as requested by WEITZEL.
Numbers of the bills in WEITZEL's possession were checked against the ransom list and were found not to be listed.
In view of the misunderstanding between the two above [REDACTED] no further action with respect to this false report of the finding of ransom bills appears necessary.
