Governor W)thycombe waa advised to day by Attorney-General Brown that h may. direct the District Attorney of Multnomah County to Institute appro Driala Droceedlnae In the name of tbe state against the Stewards' Club of Portland upon leave granted by the Circuit Court of Multnomah County or on of Ita Judges lor tne purpose ci voiding and annulling the existence of such corporation. ' I The executive inquired of the Attor ney-General recently what ateps would be necessary for the purpose of void ing and annulling th charters or tne Culinary Club and tbe Portland Stew ards' Aasociatlon. which had been In corporated under the laws of Oregon. An examination of the records showed th Attorney-Aeneral that th Culinary Club had filed a certificate of dissolu tion July 7. 1917, being dissolved by tta own act. The charter of the Stew ards' Association a till stands. The opinion does riot atate th spe cific nature of the charge against the Stewards' Association, but apparently from reading th opinion illegal gaming la alleged. In advising the Governor to act the AttorneyrGeneral says In part: Whenever a . corporation of this state other than a public one violators th criminal lawa of tho state of Ore gon any District Attorney cf this state may in his discretion upon leave by the court, or a Judge tbereof. where tha action la triable, institute an ac tion at law for tbe purpose of voiding tha charter of such offending corpora tion. Such action may be instituted with) or. without direction from th Governor. However. It has often been argued In this state that such direc tion Js necessary, ana tne oniy aavan Lags of an order from Your Excellency la that It removes from the case any question aa to th authority of the District Attorney. This refers, of course, to an action to annul the ex Istence of the corporation by reason of the provisions of section S6o. The Attorney-General also calls at tenllon to the provision of the const! tutlon which provides that the execu ttve ahall see that the lawa are faith fully executed, and continues: Reliable information having been placed before you as th Chief Execu tive of tbe state. It la proper to direct that proceeding be Instituted against any, person, natural or artificial, for the purpose of vindicating the law. A corporation la a creature of the atate and ahould obey the laws of its creator. "Corporations have been frequently Indicted for maintaining a public nui sance; for permitting gambling upon their grounds; keeping a disorderly bouse: for selling Intoxicating liquors violating the Federal atamp act: crim inal libel: violating the eight-hour law; peddling without a license, and for many other crimea. A corporation and a natural person may be Indicted to gether." After citing the purposes for which the Portland Stewards' Association was formed according to-lta articlea of In corporation, tbe Attorney-General says "It Is not necessary to say that unlaw ful gaming Is a clear violation of the purpose of th Incorporation."

N When by Skill, Diligence and Fidelity a firm wins the unwavering support and confidence of the com munity in and by which it lives, 'tis well to point oilt from time to" time the road which has led to its material success. During all the years of our business life, we have given particular atten tion to the fitting of TRUSSES, BELTS and similar appliances to the ruptured. We have aided the physician the surgeon; have given our experience) skill and business training to this task; have created a personnel men and women who command the patronage and confidence of public and profession alike. A RUPTURE is not cured by flamboyant advertising. There is no medicine or single appliance which will perform this task each case calls for personal attention. Our fitters are trained men and women our stock so complete in variety that there never is a case we cannot properly meet. Private, comfortable fitting rooms and facilities make for the comfort of those who come to us. When necessary, residence, calls supple ment our service. Fitting a truss is not a tyro's task, and our good service rests upon a guarantee of customer satisfaction never yet, and never to be, broken. Woodard, Clarke Co.
