PUN APPROVED
Regulation of Contractors
Favored by Local Build
ers' Organization
Salem contractors. In their as
sociation meeting Tuesday night,
voiced their approval of proposed,
legislation which would make
state licensing of contractors a
matter to be brought before the
1931 session of the legislature.
Legislation would be proposed
not to limit legitimate operators,
the association declared bnt with
the view of keeping the fly-by-nlght
and Irresponsible contract
or from operating la the estate.
The association voiced its
opinion through its president,
Fred Erlxson, after Georg B.
Harington, secretary of the Gen
eral Contractors' association of
Portland had told that city's ex
perience ia regulating contractors
there.
Posting of Bond
Held Good Plan
Harington said Portland at first
attempted to classify the contract
ors as to their qualification for the
site of job attempted but he aaid
this feature led to o much dis
sension, it was later abandoned.
He said posting a bond to guaran
tee the hirer of the contractor that
the work would be finished had
been generally accepted as a good
feature.
Harington discussed the Califor
nia license law. A nominal fee of
three dollars was charged, he said
but stringent regulations were ad
opted to make the contractor
measure to building codes and to
make him fulfill his financial re
sponsibility. Poor Workmen
Are Forced Out
The result of this legislation,
the speaker said, had been to force
poorer contractors into the north
ern state. -
President Erixon of the local as
sociation said there was no desire
whatever on the part of the con
tractors here to keep honest, cap
able men from engaging In their
profession. The purpose of the lo
cal association, he said, was to
protect dealers in supplies and em
ployers of contractors, from losing
money at the hand of incompe
tents.
"The right to do business is a
right to do it In the right way,"
Harington declared.
Erixon made it plain that noth
ing whatever had been done by the
contractors' association In the
matter of price fixing. This sub
ject would be left to the Individ
ual contractor entirely, he stated.
The object of the contractors'
group was to keep adequate stan
dards to protect the public rather
than ro determine price, Erixon
averred.
Members of the recently formed
association of material dealers
were guests of the contractors for
the evening.

ran CASE
TO
Alien Property Custodian's
Suit Comes Before Court
Again, Ruled
SO Patients to
Be Transferred
Fifty patients at the Oregon
state hospital here will be trans
ferred to the eastern Oregon In
sane asylum at Pendleton next
week, according to announcement
made here Tuesday by Dr. R. E.
Lee Stelner, superintendent. This
will relieve congested conditions
at the Salem Institution which
now has a population of 2040. Of
these 1222 are men and SIS are
women".
Reargument was ordered by the
state supreme court here Tuesday
in the suit . brought by Howard
Sutherland, as federal alien prop
erty custodian, to recover dam
ages from Dow Walker, August
Wemme and E. D. Wlckey, in con
nection with the sale of property
of the E. Henry Wemme company.
This property was other than that
willed by E. Henry Wemme to
the Wemme foundation fund.
The complaint charged that
Walker, who was secretary of the
E. Henry Wemme company, Aug
ust Wemme and Wlckey conspired
to defraud heirs of E. Henry
Wemme residing In Germany,
through the sale of their shares in
the Er Henry Wemme company at
a figure far below its actual value.
Wickey, named as one of the
defendants in the suit, was an at
torney employed In the alien prop
erty custodian department at
Washington, and was sent to Ore
gon to sell the property.
Records In the case showed that
August Wemme received $140,
000 for 26 shares of stock In the
E. Henry Wemme company, while
46. shares of stock belonging to
the heirs in Germany was sold for
$101,000. At the time of the sale
August Wemme was said to have
held power of attorney from the
heirs in Germany. These heirs In
cluded a brother and two sisters
of E. Henry "Wemme.
Damages Awarded
la' Lower Court
Following sale of the property
belonging to the heirs in Germany
suit was filed in the Multnomah
county circuit court by Suther
land to recover for them the dif
ference between the sale price and
the actual value of the property.
The lower court awarded damages
to Sutherlin in the amount of
$65,500. Waiker and August
Wemme later appealed to the state
supreme court.
The case was argued in the su
preme court last March, but no
opinion was written at that time.
The reargument has been set for
June 17. No reason was given by
the court for the reargument or
der. The supreme court modified the
decree of the lower court for Mult
nomah county, which awarded a
Judgment of $30,400 In favor of
Gordon Donaghy, for personal In
juries received while in the em
ploy of the Oregon-Washington
Railroad & Navigation company.
The judgment, as modified by the
supreme court, was fixed at $25,
000. Ballot Titles Are
Upheld by Court
In another opinion the supreme
court affirmed the ballot titles
prepared by I. H. Van Winkle, at
torney general, for submission to
the voters at the November elec
tion of a constitutional amend
ment authorising the creation of
people's utility districts. The bal
lot titles were attacked by L. B.
Smith of Portland, on grounds
that they were unfair and mislead
ing. Other opinions handed down by
the supreme court today follow:
In the matter of the adjudica
tion of the rights to use the water
of Pine "Creek in Baker county,
also matter of W. W. Lloyd, et aL
vs. N. D. Brown, et al, defendants,
