L
Arrest Need Not Precede
Search of Law Violator
Court Hules In Revers
ing Previous Stand.
The presence of Justice H. H.
Belt on the Oregon supreme court
bench resulted in the court today
reversing its former opinion of Jan
uary 2, written by former Justice
M. L. Pipes, and upholding the
lower court for Benton county in
the conviction of F. A. McDaniel
on a charge of possessing intoxi
cating liquor.
Vou Four to Three.
The right of search and seizure
prior to arrest, and to use evidence
so obtained were mainly involved
in the case. The opinion of Jus
tice Belt, handed down today, af
firms Judge O. F. Skipworth of
the lower court. It, In effect, is
in favor of the arresting officers.
Former Justice Pipes held an op
posite view in his opinion and had
the support of Justices Bean, Rand
and Brown, making a four to
three opinion o the court. In the
Belt opinion these three justices
dissent, while Chief Justice Mc
HKdo and Justices Burnett and
Coshow concur, nicking a four to
three opinion for the state. The
state asked for a rehearing of he
case when Justice Pipes retired
from the bench and Belt succeeded
him following the hitter's election
last November. Justice Brown's
diesont is, however, only in part,
and he announced it in writing in
a few words. "In the main," tac
3ays, "I am In accord with the Uw
as laid down by Mr. 'Justice Belt
in the well-prepared inajori.y
opinion, but I cannot concur 'n
the holding that the defendant
was lawfully arrested prior to the
forcible search of his persons, or
that such search and subsequent
arrest were contemporaneous."
Beau and Hand did not write their
dissents.
Officers Upheld.
The court holds, through the
Belt opinion, that the officers,
from personal knowledge through
the sense of sight and smell, had
the right to draw the reasonable
inference that the defendant had
intoxicating liquor In his posses
sion and that he was attempting
to drive an automobile while In a
drunken condition. Without doubt,
it Is held, he was committing a
crime in their presenoe, for which
Mi ay had the legal right to make
arrest without a warrant, and the
right of search followed as an in
cident thereto.
"We give no sanction or ap
proval," says the opinion, "to ar
rests Jjased upon mere suspicion
and hearsay, and exploratory
searches cannot be made to obtain
evidence upon which to base an
arrest. The law requires the ar

GOVERNOR'S
VETO VALID
Bill To Refer Measures In

Be Simple Legislative
Act In Verbal Opinion.
Oregon will not have a special
election In September. This was

L. L. Swan against Secretary ot
State Kozer, an original proceed
ing in mandamus to compel Kozer
to call a special election notwith
standing Governor Plorce'e veto ot
the special election bill of the 1025
legislature.
With possibly one exception the
court was a unit in the opinion and
a written decree will come down a
week from today. Tho reason for
a verba) opinion was to meet the
necessity for quick action because
of various state duties that would

the election have been called, such

and the filing of arguments tor

McBride said there was a possi
