Only one shipment rived in town this week and the market is high. Little change is seen in meats. Chicken and pork or smoked prod ucts remain the best buys. Beef prices remain high to retailers, who are absorbing most of t h e extra cost without passing it along to the consumers. Local supermar kets aro hoping for a drop in beef prices so they won't have to raise their prices. Salmon and crab meat remains scarce, but bottom fish is plentiful. CHICKEN and hams are being featured for the Memorial Day weekend. Little change is seen in other root crops. Carrots remain of ex cellent quality and with little change in price. Some turnips re main, but parsnips and other root crops are through for the season. The dry onion market is dropping rapidly, as new shipping districts are opening up. The price is down one-half from two weeks ago. LETTUCE remains plentiful, the supply far exceeding the demand. This condition will remain at least two more weeks. Other varieties of lettuce used as salad vegetables are also plentiful and of good qual ity.

LurTUE LAW A PUBLIC SERVICE OF THE COLLEGE OF LAW, WILLAMETTE UNIVERSITY John Smith had a run of bad luck. Two years ago he broke his leg in an automobile accident and the plant where he worked closed down. By the time his leg had healed and he was able to walk, most of his life savings had been spent and he owed debts amounting to $3,000. Some of his creditors filed suits and obtained judgments against him. He got a new job but soon lost it for the reason that several o his creditors brought "garnishment proceedings," seek ing to collect the amounts due them from his wages. His employe er simply would not be bothered by the garnishment proceedings month after month. John finally filed a petition in bankruptcy. In due time a dis charge in bankruptcy was given to John and he managed to get and hold a good job. One day after John secured his discharge in bankruptcy and after he got his new job, another gar nishment proceeding was brought seeking to collect from John's wag es. John boiled with anger and went to his employer and said: "They can't do that to me. I went through bankruptcy and was dis charged from my debts." John's employer urged him to see a law yer and John did so. The lawyer examined the records in the court and learned that John had been sued by one of his old creditors for a debt he owed when he filed his petition in bankruptcy. When the lawyer told John about the suit, John told the lawyer that he remembered having been sued, but that he had thrown the sum mons in the waslebasket and had done nothing to doend the suit. He told his lawyer: "That creditor couldn't sue me. I've been through bankruptcy and have a discharge which wipes out the debt I owed to that creditor." John is wrong, unfortunately. While the discharge he secured did discharge most of his debts, it did not wipe them out complete ly. The moral and legal obligation to pay the debts still exists. The discharge is a good defense to a discharged debt but it has no ef fect unless it is raised when suit is brought on the debt. John should have answered the summons. In his answer he should have set forth the fact of his dis charge. He should then have ap peared at the time the case was tried and should have offered his discharge in evidence. This column is to present gen eral principles of law. It is not to Da taken as legal advice. Slight changes in the facts of a case may phange its outcome.
