Kismet	Re: The much hated W Salter.
	Interesting how the facts about Salter are so quickly forgotten. Salter not only was a power hungry selfish man but when he left the Canadian Bethel he also took with him a couple of properties deeded to the Society by faithful JW's. To top it off he ran off with his secretary (not his wife). So while the whole Achan class thing was a huge stretch (Rutherford was as power hungry BTW) let's not waste too much sad feelings for a thief and adulterer. I don't hate the man but I have no respect for him either. I got to know Laura French (Mentioned in the article above). For years she was a Salter supporter until he got carried away talking about becoming the next president etc. She almost lost everything as a result of her one time friendship with him. He didn't give her or others like her a second thought when he ran away. Also to clarify Joseph's comment, Percy was replaced as Branch Coordinator but continued serving at Bethel till his death. His widow is still there (unless she has passed away recently). As far as wondering eyes that has never been proven. It has always been the dark rumors that have floated through the ex-jw realms for years. Hope the above helps. Kismet
