Farris on perjury charges today not to let any suggestions of municipal corruption influ- ence its judgment. He said much of the evidence has been surrounded by a "fe- tid at here of ici corruption" but that had noth- ing to do with the specific charges against the Vancouver) financier, president of Northern Ontario Natural Gas Company. The all-male jury, now in the 13th day of the trial, was to be- in, deliberation on the two in- iciments against Farris at the end of the presiding judge's ad- dress... J jury not to p onthe the-| ory that, because there might\qark grey suit have been wrongdoing of one kind, someone must be con- vieted of wrongdoing of another kind. At times during the trial, he said, it had almost seemed as though an attempt were being) made to establish guilt by as-| sociation. However, he absolved the Crown of any deliberate in- tent to do that. AFTER FRANCHISES Shares in NONG had been given in 1957 to current and former municipal officials in Ontario, but there was no evi- dence of why they had been given or whose idea it was to give them. None of the persons involved had admitted to any deal, and the transactions had taken place after NONG ob- tained franchises in the various communities "I want to be careful not to let the fetid atmosphere of municipal corruption that has surrounded much of the evi- dence in this case affect you," the judge said.
