ASKS
NEW BRIEFS IN I S
BRIDGE ARGUMENT
After hearing arguments on
whether the Interstate bridge com
mission whould; turn the control of
the Interstate bridge over to Gov
ernor Olcott, Judge KavanauRh
Thursday afternoon aaked for briefs,
so a decision cannot be expected for
a week.'
tjeorae Mo wry, acting tor the coni-
tniKsion, attacked the constitutionality
of the law passed by the 1921 legislature
. which authorized the governor to take
"possession of the bridge. Mowry said
the act was Insufficiently defined In the
title. The title provides that the irov
ernor fhall collect toils of the bridge,
while Mowry claims that the outstand
ing; point of the bill is that the governor
. has complete control, lie can raise tons,
make repairs and do whatever else he
desire.
ilOORK KEPUES TO MOWRf
Willis 8. Moore, assistant attorney
general, replied that the courts have
ruled that a measure parsed by the leg
islature tshoufd not be set aside on such
grounds unless it is clearly proved that
fraud was Intended.
The opposing attorneys traced the his
tory of the bridge case, wnen me Donas
were tesued for the bridge by Multnomah
county the state provided that the county
hould levy tolls on those who crossed the
bridge and in this way procure money to
nay the Interest on the bonds and pay
off the principal as the bonds came due.
"Whatever was paid on the Interest, the
state agreed to deduct that sum from
the amount of taxes Multnomah county
had to pay to the state. -By
the later act of 1915. the state was
to give Multnomah county a clear title
to the bridge, the county agreeing to
keep it In repair and general good con
dition. The county was to receive 25 per
cent of the tolls and the state 75 per
cent. - '
K1V LAW OF 1919
In 1919 a new law was passed by
which the 25 per cent and the 75 per cent
agreement was done away with. How
ever, the state claims that about $77,000
Is still due It. In order to collect this $77,
00 the legislature passed the bill giv
ing Governor Olcott control of the bridge.
When the bridge , commission, consist
ing of the county commissioners and
District Attorney Evans, refused to com
ply with the law. the governor brought
mandamus action to force surrender of
the bridge.
The commission then filed a demurrer,
charging that the- law .was unconstitu
tional. It is this demurrer which is be
ing argued before Judge Kavanaugh.
Assistant Attorney General Moore
maintains that even if the law is uncon
stitutional, the court has no right to so
decide in a mandamus action. He says
the bridge commission must allow, the
governor to take charge of the bridge,
end then. If it so desires, it can bring
the case of constitutionality into court.

FIVE ARE INJURED
WHEN GRAIN CAR
FALLS 20 FEET
Five men were- seriously injured.
one perhaps fatally, in a spectacular
crash when a loaded grain car tum
bled 20 feet from a "highline" tres
tle, dragging a big steam wrecking
crane with it at the Albina mill. Port
land Flouring j Mills company, late
B'riday afternoon. The men were
pinned beneath the mass of wreck-
age' and it was necessary for work
men to use axes to free them.
The wrecking; crew was attempting
to 'drag back into place the .grain car.
which had rolled half way over the
breaker at the end . of the line Thurs
day afternoon. The crash came just as
the heavy car was swung back onto the
track. It toppled and fell sidewise off
the track. Engineer- John Skoko. who
was on the crane, was caught In the
wreckage and scalded with steam from
the bursted. boiler. He was burned on
his side, arms and back.
CfJtJKT MAT BE FATAL
The men injured were John Skoko.
603 Ladd avenue, engineer of the crane,
probably fatally ; Olaf Olsen, 590 Borth-
wick street, injured about the head.
His condition ia not serious, according
to . hospital authorities.; i George Creen
ich. 93 Morris ; Btreet, slight injury to
right foot ; George Bradvica, 152 Graham
avenue, serious injuries to head and
back ; Martin Chutuk, 165 Morris street,
badly burned about hands and face, con
dition serious. ;
The men were all members of the O.-W.
R. & N. wrecking crew. They were
taken to St. Vincents hospital by the
Arrow Ambulance company and the
Ambulance Service company. This
morning hospital authorities said that
Skoko was the only one of the five in
an especially dangerous condition.
The grain car was loaded'to its 50.000-
pound capacity i with ground feed and
was spotted on the "highline" track
under the mill sheds. Thursday it had
been moved by an engine and was
turned lose with such force that
it was carried almost over the breaker.
CAB BECAMJi j U1MANAGEABLE
The working 5 crane, ' mo-.-? .ted on an
O.-W. R. & N. flatcar, had succeeded in
hauling the car i back on the track, but
while the crew was attempting to adjust
we trucks unaer the grain car, it
crashed over on its Bide. " Its weight was
sufficient to drag the flatcar and crane
with it
The crash was one of the. most unus
ual and spectacular accidents which
ever occurred at the mill yards, accord
ing to mill authorities who witnessed
the accident Three ambulances were
summoned while workmen strove des
perately to free the imprisoned men. ;
The accident was unusual in that none
of the men caught in the smashup was
crushed and no parts of their bodies
were mutilated: The steam from the
bursted boiler Was the most dangerous
factor to be contended with in freeing
the men. It is said only swift action on
the part of workmen present in the yards
wnen tne crash came saved the lives of
the men. j ,

tain Landis, known to some people, as
high commissioner' of bats, balls, stars,

"What do you mean?" queried the pic
turesque Jurist
"Why ' 16 years ago today you were
sworn in as judge and I was sworn In as
bailiff," replied the deputy.
"So it is," said Landis.
A . veteran newspaper photographer
then handed him a picture he had taken
of the judge on that day.
"My hair has - changed complexions
Bince that day," reminisced Landis,
"Well, this is a responsible job."
The judge was asked what was his
most important case in that time.
"They are all important,' j he said.
"Taking a man's liberty from him and
putting him in prison, even if he is a
thief, is a responsible and difficult thing.
Prison and loss of family Is more im
portant to any man than any $29,000,000
fine for-a corporation. These have been
16 stormy years, but I expect to put in
M more here, just as stormy."
