The incorporation law of Ore­
gon, as interpreted by Attorney
General Van Winkle in the Port
Orford Chamber of Commerce
case, places every unincorporat­
ed civic organization, and prob­
ably every unincorporated or­
ganization for profit, at the mer­
cy of persons, who may file ar­
ticles of incorporation, prepared
in due form and accompanied by
the proper fee, covering the
name used by any such organiz­
ation, and the corporation com­
missioner is legally bound to ac­
cept the filing and issue the
charter; and, further, after the
charter is issued, the corpora­
tion commissioner has no legal
authority to revoke the charter
even though wilful and deliber­
ate fraud should be found to
have been perpetrated upon the
state in the securing of same.
In view of the fact that but
few of the chambers of com­
merce, women’s clubs, garden
clubs, social clubs of every de­
scription, and other organiza­
tions of kindred nature, are un­
ii,corporated, the effect of the
ruling of the attorney general is
of statewide interest, and, in or­
der that such organizations may
be protected, the Port Orford
Chamber of Commerce, unincor­
porated, has requested the state
corporation commissioner to
seek an amendment to the laws
that will make it impossible to
repeat the action in the Port Or­
ford case.
In view of the fact that such
work is of a constructive char­
acter and in the interest of the
people as a whole, it is believed
that all unincorporated organi­
zations will support the corpora­
tion commissioner in any effort
he makes to close the loophole in
the present incorporation law.
