Court Rules Against Municipal
Operation of Private "
Enterprise.
(Trial to be held later
Decision Overrules Demurrer Filed
It j City to Id J unction Complaint
Brought Last Fall by Fish
Sealers of Portland.
t?nless the city of Portland, through
.Its officials, can come into court and
dealers of this city are unable to sup
ply the retail demand for fish, the p-
. must be brought to an end.
This was the impending death knell
of the city's embarkation Into the fish
.business, which was sounded yester
day when Circuit Judge Kavanaugh
I handed down a decision overruling- a
demurrer filed by the city to the in
junction complaint brought last Fall
by E. E. Russell and other fish deal
ers, who charged the city administra
tion with exceeding its constitutional
authority In tar ting up a retail fish
market.
In a decclsion of 12 typewritten
pages Judge Kavanaugh goes into
every angle of the situation and con
cludes that the city must show a real
emergency to exist if it wishes to
expend public moneys in a private en
terprise. In this case, tie holds, an
emergency means that the retail fish
dealers are unable to supply the de
mand for fish products. And the right
to conduct such an enterprise, he
further holds, ends when the emer
gency is passeed.
In answer to the city's contention
that the Municipal Fish Market was
created as a war emergency, the court
aays:
IT Order Is Fonnd.
"These emergencies may arise In
times of peace as well as in times of
war. I have not found any legisla
tive measure or executive order of the
Government bearing directly upon this
question. The Government has power
to regulate prices and to provide the
distribution of all food products dur
ing the war. It has power to suspend
the constitutional guaranties. But as
I am advised, it has promulgated no
order bearing directly upon the sale
of fish at retail. The mere existence
of a state of war does not suspend the
Constitution or laws, nor affect the
status of private business. When the
Oovernment speaks, Its voice is law,
but until It has spoken, the traditional
guaranties are not suspended."
The court further holds that conduct
ing a fish market is remote from the
functions of a city government and
-there is no express authority contained
In the charter to conduct such business. '
"If the city can engage in the fish
business, it can, with equal propriety
and often with as great reason, invade
practically every field of private busi
ness, and divert to that purpose public
funds raised directly or indirectly by
taxation." reads the decision. "'If the
city's contentions be accepted, it would
open wide the door to municipal trad
ing in various lines of commerce. Cit
ies have no implied or incidental au
thority to engage in general business.
Our constitutions and laws protect pri
vate property and legitimate private
business.
Authority Not Legal.
"My conclusion Is that while normal
conditions prevail, and in the absence
of an emergency, the city is without
legal authority to engage In this busi
ness, or one of like character."
Judge Kavanaugh concludes that the
city of Portland must now file a gen
eral answer to the complaint of the
retail fish dealers and must show that
a real emergency exists at the present
time if it desires to continue in the
fish business. The caEe proper will
come up for trial at a later date. In
the meantime, the Municipal Fish Mar
ket will continue to operate, said Dep
uty Attorney Tomlinson.
The history of the case started Oc
tober 3. 1317. when the City Council
passed an order taking over the Muni
cipal Fish Market. It appropriated
from the general fund to finance
the enterprise. The retail fish dealers
then brought suit, demanding a perma
nent injunction restraining the city
from conducting the business. The
fish dealers asserted that they had ap
proximately tse.MOO invested in the
business and that the city's entrance
In the retail fish business meant a con
fiscation of their property. They like
Wise held it to be unconstitutional.
