Congressmen from ManyStates
Pay Tribute to J.W. Mott
Nine members of the house of representatives in Washington
from various states in addition to the Oregon and Montana dele
gations paid tribute to their late colleague, James W. Mott, at the
atternoon session of the assem-f
bly on Tuesday, November 13,
according to the Congressional
Record. Brief excerpts are:
Martin, (Mass.) "He was
a man of strong convictions and
with courage to fight for those
convictions. His fine mind and
keen intellect helped materially
to build the mighty American
navy of today. He personified
the high type of public servant
required to successfully combat
difficult problems in our path
Vinson, (Ga.) "He was more
than a close colleague to me
he was my partner in what was
once a most unpopular crusade.
the fight for a strong and
powerful navy. We . always
knew that his penetrating mind
would detect any flaws in our
proposals. He demanded facts
and logic. The void created by
his untimely passing will long
pervade the meetings of the
Naval Affairs committee."
Cole, (N.Y.) His attitude
Snell to Hear
Dennis' Plea
Andrew W. Dennis, 45, Port
.. land mother-in-law slayer who
had been scheduled to die last
Friday, was returned to Port
land Tuesday after the state
supreme court found that no
death warrant for his execution
had been prepared by the cir
cuit court.
Circuit Judge Martin W.
Hawkins will have to prepare
a new death warrant, so that
Dennis' execution will be de
layed at least 30 days. During
that time, Dennis will make ap
peals for cummutation to Gov
ernor Earl Snell, and possibly
take further court action.
The opposing attorneys, de
fense attorney Edwin D. Hicks,
Portland, and Assistant Attorn
ey General Fred A. Miller,
agreed that no death warrant
existed, and that Dennis should
go back to Portland for resen
tencing and a death warrant.
Dennis sat expressionless
through the half-hour hearing.
Acting Gov. Howard C. Bel
ton has denied the appeal for
commutation of the sentence to
life imprisonment. Governor
Snell will return to the state
next Friday.
Limitations Statute
Held Unconstitutional
The atate supreme court to
day handed down a decision
branding the state statutes of
limitations as unconstitutional.
In an appeal of J. P. Fuller
ton versus W. E. Lamm and
the Deschutes Lumber company,
.the high court reversed a de
cision by Lane county circuit
Judge G. F. Skipworth and
ruled the statute of limitations
as an "attempt on the part of
the state legislature to control
and limit substantive rights
granted by an act of congress
(fair labor standards act of
1038) and clearly is unconstitu
tional as such."
Fullerton, as plaintiff, was
seeking $6,115 back pay for
overtime. The defendant had
contended that any employe
with claim must bring it within
six months as is provided in the
statute of limitations.
The opinion was written by
Justice Hall Lusk with Chief
Justice Harry Belt the only one
of the seven Justices dissenting.
