    Union under investigation for misappropriation of funds katu.com/news
    CORVALLIS, ORE. - The Corvallis branch of the United Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners is under investigation for misappropriation of union funds.

    'There is money missing, and a lot of it,' said Michael V. Draper, the union's western region vice president, speaking by phone Monday from his office in Bend.

    Based on preliminary information from an ongoing audit and investigation, union officials believe that tens of thousands of dollars in dues has been siphoned from the local's accounts.

    Carpenters union General President Douglas McCarron declared an 'emergency situation' and placed Corvallis Local 1094 under the parent organization's direct supervision.
