Weed Killer
Case Reversed
The Oregon supreme court
todsy reversed a Multnomah
county circuit court decree
that awarded R. C. Start $11,
250 Judgment for damages to
his lily bulbs at Canby, Ore.
Start is a commercial grow
er ot lily bulbs.
On February ,16, 1948, He
bought 200 gallons of chemical
prepared by the Shell Oil com
pany under the trade name of
"Shell Weed Killtr No. 20."
He claimed the agent, one
Kjome, said it would destroy
the weeds with no damage to
bis bulblets. Start said the
chemical ruined his entire
crop of bulblets in 1948. He
sued the Shell Oil company
and C. Arntson and Arntson
appealed from the award in
the court of Circuit Judge
James R. Bain.
Justice Warner wrote: "It
appears to use as contrary to
the established law of agency,
as well as extremely danger
ous to the commercial world,
to hold that a salesman, not
shown to have any apparent
or express authority other
than that of taking orders for
a chemical of powerful toxic
content, has implied authority
to make a warranty of such
far-reaching import as plain
tiff claims was made to him
and thus expose his principal
to liability for damages to the
extent sought here.
Fire Protection Plan
Arranged by Board
A temporary agreement in
volving the Salem and Salem
Heights fire departments in
connection with protection for
the Pringle and Rosedale
buildings was worked out dur

The Salem Heights-Liberty
Rural Fire Protective district
has expressed a willingness if
not an eagerness to give pro
tection to the two schools.
However, Chief Norval L.
H irons stated that his district
would be violating an agree
ment with the underwriters
association if a fire loss was
sustained within his own
boundaries while equipment
went outside.
Fire Chief Ellsworth Smith
of the Salem department,
Mayor AI Loucks and City
Manager J. L Franzen ex
pressed willingness to give
standby protection to the Sal
em Heights-Liberty district in
case of emergency.

All City Buildings

All buildings owned by the
city of Salem are now either
occupied by the city or by ten
ants on lease or rental basis.
The latest rental Is to the
Oregon National Guard, .which
will use one of the old bar

by the Civil Air Patrol on

ThresheTWilT Work
On Crop of Airport
The city has adopted a new
policy for handling the airi
cultural crop on the Salem air
port area, which next month
will bring a combine harvester
to the scene.
Instead of cutting the bent
grass on the field for hay as
has been done in the past it
will be threshed for the seed.
It is believed the revenue will
be greater for the city than
the former method ot harvest
ing the crop.
For some years the city has
had an agreement with Fair

agreement this has been
dropped and the city now has

Habeas Corpus
Writ Demanded
Contending that he Is being
Illegally held in the stat peni
tentiary under the habitual
criminal act- Homer White, an
inmata of the prison since late
February, 1850, Tuesday filed
a petition for writ of habeas
corpus in Marlon county cir
cuit court.
Judge Rex Kimmell Issued
an order directing warden
iClaranc Gladden to have
White in court August 24.
White, In his petition states
"the cause and pretense of im
prisonment, ... Is that on the
27th day of February, 1950, the
circuit court ol Douglas county
sentenced the plaintiff to im
prisonment in the Oregon state
penitentiary for a period of 20
yean as an habitual criminal."
The illegality of the sentence.
White declares is because "At
no time prior to the imposition
of the senttnee . . . was the
petitioner charged with any
prior convictions of felonies by
information or otherwise, and
hence there was and is no basis
for sentencing plaintiff under
the habitual criminal act."
The records show that White
was convicted of the crime of
larceny of personal property
of a value of more than S35
Feb.. 27- 1950 and was subse
quently sentenced by Circuit
Judge William o. Hart to a 20
year term. It Is alleged that
White had been convicted three
times of felonies prior to the
crime of larceny.
Court Rules
In $20 Case
The Oregon supreme court
today reversed an opinion in a
case which may involve as lit
tle as $20 smallest sum to
take the attention of the high
court in years.
Tena Sleep sued J. L. Mor
rill in the Coos county Circuit
court of Judge Dal M. King for
$1000 for depositing some
trees and other debris on her
property, next to his.
The lower court found in
favor of defendant Morrill.
Tena Sleep appealed, and the
supreme court tn an opinion
written by Justice Walter L.
Tooze, held "that under defen
dant's own admissions plain
tiff was entitled to a verdict
in her favor. The only ques
tion In dispute was the amount
of damage."
The .defendant fixed the cost
of removal of the trees at S25
and the lowest estimate was
$20, whereupon Justice Tooze
wrote that the plaintiff was en
title to at least $20. The case
now goes back to Coos county.

"An effort Is being made to
