'J IN SIX MONTHS PASSES SENATE (Continued from Page One) KELLY AND KFNYjl FEHL FUND SHARES (Continued from Vage One.) The vote by which the senate ap proved the resolution was 53 to 24. Despite hot attacks on the measure from both aides of the party aisle. It went through with less than a day's debate. Warnings from critics that it would endanger government credit were denied by administration spokes men yesterday. The final ballot came suddenly today without debate. The bill Is designed to close up the last loop-hole left by the supreme court's gold clause decision. In that cast, the court held that holders of government obligations promising pay In gold could recover If they could show they were damaged by payment In paper money, and "the balance should be paid to Jackson county, upon the cose Judgment," In the Klamath county trial. Kelly and Kelly are directed to prepare a decree In accordance with the opinion. In the S2000 Hen for legal serv ices of Kelly and Kelly, the opinion holds that Fehl's contention they acted without his authority. Is re futed by letters he wrote Imploring them to render legal aid and saying, "I will pay you back when I get out." The opinion further says: The defendant. Earl H. Fehl, seems to have been constantly in need of the services of attorneys, but. according to the evidence showed no disposition to pay for such serv ices." The opinion denies the claim ol Attorney T. J. Enright for 500 and the claim of Niedermeyer, Inc., for the same amount for the same pur pose. The claim of Ted Helmroth ot Griffin creek and J. B. Thomas or Ashland, for a title to the Pacific Herald property on Sixth street is denied, "for the reason that they advanced the money as a loan to Fehl and any title which they may now have by virtue of their sher iff's deed Is held as security for the re-payment of the moneys so advanced." Helmroth and Thomas loaned Fehl approximately $4500 at the time of the sale of the Pacific Record Herald property In January, 1933. In the claim of Corlnthia E. Stailey, mother-in-law of Fehl, who advanced 500 for purchase of the Parr libel judgment, the opinion holds, "This Judgment was pur chased by and for the defendant Earl H. Fehl," and Mrs. atailey now holds It "as repayment of the $500 furnished through the sale of her Liberty bonds." The court during the course of the trial, "admonished all old peo ple to consider the Oregon supreme court findings.
