QUESTION LONG ARGUED
W. B. Shlvely, Chairman of Pott
land Realty Board's Legal
' Committee, Analyzes Part
" Wife iay Play.
BT W. B. 6HIVELT.
Chairman Legal Committee, Portland Realty
Board.
Can a man, owing? debts and with
Intent to defraud, convey his property
to bis wife or near relative or to a
friend, and thus remove It from the
reach of his creditors?
. The statute Involved in answering:
conclusive presumption of fraud; our
Supreme Court has been very careful In
pointing: out that
While transactions of this character be
tween husband and wife will be more clselr
scrutinized than It they were between per
sons not related yet the mere fact of such
relationship la not of Itself sufficient to
justify the court in declaring them fraud
ulent. And our Supreme Court further stated
in the very late case of Vogrt vs. Marshall-Wells
Hardware Co.. 172 Pac. 123:
The fact of relationship is merely a cir
cumstance to be scrutinized with other cir
cumstances In determining the good or bad
faith of the transaction. Good faith and
adeqnate consideration being shown, the
circumstances of relationship loses its value.
In other words, each case ha to be
decided on Its own particular facts.
For instance, in the case of,Coolidge
vs. Oberlin, 66 Ore. 563. 135 Pac 167.
the facts were, briefly, that a Mrs.
Oberlin at one time owned a Nebraska
farm which she sold and lent the pro
ceeds of the sale to her husband, who
invested the same in his own name.
Wife Gets Real Estate.
He then became Involved with his
creditors, after which he conveyed to
nis wile certain real estate in satisfac
tion of his debt to her. The creditors
thereupon brought suit against Ober
lin, endeavoring to have the deed from
Oberlin to his wife set aside, claiming
that the same had been executed with
intent to defraud them. The, court.
after reviewing: all the testimony, held
that Mrs. Oberlln's claim agrainst her
nusDand was a bona fide one; that he
had a right to favor her as his creditor
and that the transaction between them
should be upheld.
Again, In the case of "Walker vs.
Harold, 44 Or. 206, 7 Pac, 705, Harold,
being: in debt, borrowed money from
his mother-in-law, as security for

this question is found In Lord's Oregon
Laws at Section 7397, and is briefly as
follows:
Every conveyance or assignment In writ
- lng or otherwise of any estate or Interest
In lands . . . made with the Intent to
hinder, delay or defraud creditors or other
persons of their lawful . . . debts ...
as agrainst the persons so hindered, delayed
or defrauded, shall be void.
Thla question has been the subject
of much litigation In this state. At the
outset it may be observed that a debt
or's right to prefer one creditor over
another Is not prohibited by any statute
of this state. Feldman v. Nlcolal, 28
Ore. 34, 42. 40 Pac 1011. (The remedy
of creditors seeking to avoid a prefer
ence to any particular creditor Is
through the bankruptcy courts.) And
. If a man Is Indebted to his wife, rela-
tlve or Intimate friend. It Is not a crime
: for him to convey his property to that
wife, relative or friend In eatlsfaction
...of, or as security for the debt; so long
as the transaction is made in good
" faith and for a valuable and adequate
consideration the conveyance will be
- upheld.
Court Upholds Right.
As was said by the Supremo Court
of the Stats of Oregon, In Wright vs.
.'. Craig, 40 Ore. 191. 66 Fee 807:
It Is not a badge of fraud for a hus-
band to sell and transfer property to his
wife, for the husband and wife can now
deal with each other so ' far as their aep-
'' arate property rights are concerned, as If
they were strangers, and where the right
exists there can be no Impropriety In x
erclalng it. However, by reason of the fa
clllty afforded by the relationship of the
4, parties for entering Into confidential rela-
4. tlons and keeping them secluded from
others such a transaction will be closely
scrutinized, and the grantee must exhibit
' such a case as is wholly consistent with fair
" " dealing.
Following this line of reasoning, It
' has been established In this state by a
,,. long succession of authorities that
- wherever a conveyance Is made by one
to an Intimate relative or close friend,
"the burden Is cast upon the person to
whom the conveyance is made to prove
- ' by a preponderance of the evidence
that the conveyance was made "for a
- valuable consideration. In good faith
and without intent to defraud" those
to whom the one making the convey
vance was Indebted at the time the con
" ' veyance wa made. HUlsboro National
- Bank vs. Garbarlno, 82 Ore. 405, 410,
'' 181 Pac 703. This does not mean,
however, that the mere fact of the
conveyance having been made raises a
MR. SHIVELY REPLIES.
In an article written by M. E.
Pogue appearing In The Sunday
Oregonian of July 21. entitled
"Rights of Wife Limited by
Laws," the author refers to an
article appearing over my signa
ture in The Sunday Oregonian of
July 7 (page 6, section 3) on the
subject of wills, and states that
In preparing that article it was
evident that the new dower and
curtesy law (1817 session laws,
687) had not come to my atten
tion. In this Mr. Pogue is in
error. A reading of the article
of July 7 on wills referred to by
Mr. Pogue will show that the
new dower and curtesy law is ex
pressly cited in the fifth para
graph thereof and that the effect
of the new law Is also referred
to and briefly Illustrated In the
6th, 11th and 14th paragraphs.
Mr. Pogue's article is a criti
cism of the new law, and lays
stress upon what appears to Mr.
Pogue to be an unjust Interfer
ence with the property rights of
married women. ' The article of
July 7 prepared by me is not a
criticism, but was Intended to be
a plain statement of the law as it
exists.
Readers of articles written over,
my signature will find that I do
not attempt to set forth my own
opinions and views upon what
the law should be or what courts
should have held. 'It has been
my desire merely to state the law
as It Is. and where opinions are
expressed it will usually be found
that they are the opinions of our
Supreme Court. I make this ex
planation in justice to myself in
view of Mr. Pogue's mistaken
statement that the new dower
and curtesy law had not come to
my attention In preparing the ar
ticle on wills.
which he gave her a mortgage for
11200 on certain lands standing In his
name. He then conveyed the prop
erty to his wife. The creditors
brought suit to have the mortgage and
deed set aside as being fraudulent.
After reviewing the facts, the court
held that it was Incumbent upon the
mother-in-law clearly to show the ex
act amount of money she had lent Har
old at the time the $1200 mortgage was
executed. The only sum shown by the
testimony to have been lent Harold In
consideration of the execution of the
mortgage was S400. The testimony as
to the balance of the alleged loan was
vague and unsatisfactory, and the court
held that the 31200 mortgage should
be scaled down to 1400 and the con
veyance to the wife set aside, which
was done.
And again. In Fleischner vs. Bank of
McMinnville, 36 Or. 653, 60 Pao. 603.
the facts were that one Redmond had
executed certain mortgages to his wife
and brother-in-law. It was claimed
that the wife and brother-in-law had
lent money to Redmond more than, nine
years prior thereto. No demand or
payment had ever been made upon
these alleged debts nor had any note
been taken from Redmond by either
the wife or brother-in-law, nor did said
debts show in the annual inventories
taken by Redmond of his business con
dition, nor in any of the statements
submitted by him to commercial agen-
les.
Transaction Not Upheld.
The court held that "a party who has
valuable claim against another does
not as a general rule suffer the claim
to stand for a period of 13 years with
out even taking a note, without calling
tor Interest and without security do
ing nothing whatsoever to collect or
secure the debt- Such is not the man
ner in which business is done while
valid bona fide debt is In existence."
And the court concluded that the mort
gages were executed for the purpose
I defrauding the creditors and were,
therefore, void.
In the case of. Wright vs. Craig. 40
Ore. 191, 66 Pao 807. it developed in
that case that the husband was hon
estly indebted to his wife in various
sums aggregating some (4000. Being
in trouble with his creditors, the hUB
band conveyed to his wife property
worth from 86000 to 810,000. The court
held that under the circumstances It
was not merely necessary for the wife
to show that she had paid a valuable
consideration for the conveyance, but
also that she had paid an adequate
one, that is, a sura commensurate with
the value of the property. After re
viewing the testimony the court held
that because of the fact that the prop
erty conveyed was of a value greatly
In excess of the debt shown to exist
between the husband and wife, the
deed should be set aside, but that in
view of the fact that the debt was
bona fide one, the wife should .have
first lien upon the premises Tor the
amount of the debt, the creditors tak
ing the balance.
From the foregoing citations it will
be seen that each case is to be decided
on its merits and that the court en
deavors to do substantial justice to
each party concerned.
Creditor Ja Defined.
Before closing it would be well to
call attention to the court's -definition
of the word creditor. A creditor is no
merely one whose demand is due, but
the term includes one whose demand
is yet to mature. As stated by the Su
preme Court in the case of HUlsboro
National Bank vs. Garbarlno. above
cited:
It Is oulte as culpable for the debtor to
alienate his property with intent to de
fraud one whose claim Is not yet due as
thus to seek to Injure one whose demand
has matured. To distinguish between th
two wrongs Is not consonant with sound
logic.
And the term "creditor includes not
only one whose claim Is liquidated
that is, reduced to a definite amoun
but also one whose claim is unllqui
dated, as, lor instance, one who has
right of action for damages agatns
another for an Injury or tort. Seed vs.
Jennings, 47 Ore. 464,467. 83 Pac 87
It will do seen, therefore, that any
conveyance to hinder or defraud one
who may subsequently reduce an un
liquidated claim to judgment falls
equally within the purport of the stat
ute and is void. Before any credlto
however, can bring such a suit to have
a deed set aside, he must either reduce
his claim to a judgment or have se
cured, a valid attachment, ;

man who reaches the stamp wins it. A

Liberal Prises Offered.
Prizes In war savings stamps amount
ing to more than J36 will be given the
winners in the respective events. The
completed programme will be an

the various events can be made at the

Today there will be plenty of amuse
ment. The afternoon and evening con
certs at 2 and 7 o'clock by Philip Pels

be followed by dancing in the open-air
pavilion. The beach , is in excellent
condition and thousands have enjoyed
piunBe in tne waters of the Colum
bia. An interesting feature is the re
volving rainbow tower, which throws
every color of the rainbow on the bath
ing crowas in tne evening, making the
beach a rarely spectacular scene. The
light is a regular feature.
PIcnio parties have found the beach
much to their liking. Last Sunday the
Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen,
with approximately 2000 members and
their families and friends, held their
annual outing at the beach.
