COURT DECISION
NOT RENDERED
IN TRUST CASE
Confusion exists here aa to the
statue, ol th circuit court record
in the east ol the American Bank
& Trust company at Portland
against State- Corporation Commis
sioner McCalllster, in which the
company seeks- U be declared an
actual trust company and exempt
from, the operation ol the blue, ski-act.
; Thursday the attorney general's
office announced that Judge I H.
.McMahan had decided the case in
favor ot the corporation commis
sioner, holding; that the company
had trust powers, but was not a
trust company within the meaning
ol the blue sky act, and therefore
was not entitled to exemption from
the provisions of the blue sky act.
Assistant Attorney General Willis
Moore said that Judge McMahan
had informed him this was the
decree and had asked him to pre-
pare the order.
Friday m Portland will Moore,
an official of the American Bank
& Trust company, declared press
dispatches about the case were er
roneous, and that the decision, was
just the opposite of what was pun
lished.
Judge McMahan, when questioned
Friday, admitted that he had in
structed the attorney general to
prepare the order as announced
Thursday. He added, however, that
there seemed to be some confusion
and tiiat he may have made a mis
take.
At present it appears that
decree has- been handed down by
the court.
