    Traffic Accident
Involves Judges
EUGENE (AP) Circuit Judge
William G. East, involved in a
controversy stemming from a
minor traffic accident three
weeks ago. issued a statement (
with two other judges, dealing 1
with the incident.
The other two judges were j
Dist. Judge Chester N. Ander
son and Circuit Judge Frank B.
Reid, who were with East the
day of the accident near Reeds
port.
Federal Recommendation
The issue became controver
sial because East has been
recommended for appointment as
a federal judge, and because an1
editorial in the weekly Port
Umpqua Courier at Reedsport j
was critical of the conduct of the
three judges.
When the editorial was shown !
Sen. Richard L. Neuberger i D- j
Ore i, he said he would ask the
FBI to investigate. A Washing-!
ton correspondent. Robert Smith,
reported to the Oregonian at
Portland that Neuberger said he I
would continue to hold Judge!
East in high regard if the FBI |
determines the editorial, is in-1
accurate, but would not support
East for the federal appoint
ment if the editorial is accurate.
.Judge-.' Statement
The statement by the judges:!
“On Saturday. Jan. 22. w'e were
in attendance as special guests
at the annual meeting of the
Coos-Curry Bar association. We
stayed overnight at Coos Bay,
and attended a luncheon in a pri- j
vate home early on the afternoon |
of Sunday, the 23rd, after which j

struction. extremely narrow and
the siu-face muddy. Both our car
and the car meeting' us were go
ing slowly in order to pass. We
pulled to the right as far as we
were able, slightly contacted the
other car with the left front’
fender, contacted the bank on
our right hand side, and mired
down.
“We all got out. and, after
identification, with the help of
others our car was pushed up on
the narrow-travelled portion, and
we proceeded, looking for a place
to turn around.
Stopped by Officers
“Shortly after proceeding, we
were stopped by the officers, and
immediately returned with him
to Reedsport. We found that the
operator of the other car, who
reported the incident, was eating
dinner. We remained at the police
office until he completed his
dinner.
"Upon his return the matter
was discussed with the driver of
the other car and the officers,
and we thereupon returned to our
car and proceeded home. The ac
tion was duly reported to the
Secretary of State.”
Driver Reported
Police said they stopped the
judges' car because the driver
of the other car, Wayne, Warner.
Eugene, reported the accident
and asked police to determine
whether those in the judges' car
were in condition to drive.
After talking with the judges,
the police refused to make any
arrest and told the judges they
could drive home. Warner also
refused to sign a complaint.
