In decrees Issued yesterday by
Circuit Judges George G. Bing
ham and, Percy R. Kelly, three
suits filed, by Oregon ex-service
men against the World war veto
rans state aid commission were
yesterday dismissed. ' Replies to
arguments contained In the com
mission's demurrers were held in
sufficient as to points under ar
gument. ' ' .. '
, The suits were in mandamul
and were filed to test out various
phases ot soldier aid lejlilatlon.
The "bonus commission "had en
tered demurrers In each case and
tbese demurrers are upheld and
the proceedings ordered dismissed
as follows; '', :
William K, Faulman of Port
land stated in his complaint that
he enlisted prior to June S, 1915,
but was furloughed to the 'reserve
forces and was in civil life for a
period of nine months before war
was declared. He then was called
to duty ., and served during the
greater part of the. conflict, He
had, requested . a ruling on the
question1 of whether his call froq
the reserve forces constitutes en
listment or induction Into the
service under the bonus law,
t The second case to be dismissed
as that of P. M. Moore, Portland,
who sought a court ruling which
would force the bonus commlssioa
to grant him a lan for the pur.
chase of Industrial stocks. Tfcf
bonus comjnisisoj haa ruled thai
the law only provides for loact
on farms or residence property.
The third suit was filed by Cl
cero P. Hogan, also of Portland,
who asked for a loan which was
to be applied on a mortgage on
his mother's property, . the title
remaining; with her,"
Three Actions Approved.
Three other suits, filed against
the commission ' have recently
teen given favorable action by
Judges Kelly and Bingham of cir
cuit court tor Marlon county. "
In the esse of Margaret Crane,
Portland, Mrs. Crane as adminis
tratrix of the estate tit her hus
band, an ex-soldier, was upheld
by the, lower court in her claim
that she was entitled to the bonus
which had been applied tor by her
husband prior to his death. The
court held, however, that Mrs.
Crane and not the state was tne
legal beneficiary. . 4. . ,
Sallle Carson, ot LaGrande, mo
ther of a deceased veteran of the
World war, was granted a writ
of mandamus, against the commis
sion in her efforts to secure an
option of loan or bonus, she be
ing the beneficiary under the law.
, Supreme Court Ponders
: The third case to be decided
against the commission,1 was that
of a Salem man, E. 8. Woodford,
who contended, that the law re
quired that a loan be grtnted tor
a sum representing 75 per cent
of the appraised .value of the se
curity offered by him.
; These three cases have - been
taken to., the Oregon supreme
court upon appeal by the coramis
sion, and are now being consider
ed by the upper Judiciary.,
