what misfortune .defeated the at

Renewed possibility that the

for; December 6, of .-'the4. suit
brought by the Eastern and West
ern Lumber company of Portland,
to enjoin the state board of con
trol from - borrowing $650,000
from the state Industrial accident
commission for the construction
of the propose building. '
The case previously was argued
before the. supreme court with the
result that an opinion was writ
ten favorable to the plaintiff. Four
members of the court Joined in the
predominating opinion, while
three "members of the court dis
sented. Subsequent to handing
down this opinion-Justice Burnett,
who voted with the majority, has
died, and Judge George R. Ross-
man of Portland was appointed as
his successor. J
Following ; this , change in the
personnel of the court ahe board
of control filed a motion for a re
hearing of the case. The request
was granted, and Justice Rossman
will participate in preparing the
next opinio In the suit. V
The Eastern and Western Lum
ber , company contended ;; that in
borrowing $650,000 from the ac
cident '.commission the board of
control would violate that section
of the constitution which provides
that the state shall not create an
obligation in. .excess, of $50,000,
unless sueh debt Is authorized
by the voters.
Plaintiffs appeared in the suit
as employers and contributors to
the state industrial accident fund.
A. similar suit was filed by Peder
Pederson, as an employe and -con
tributor. to the accident fund.
Officials contend that the office
building' la; badly needed because
