Spt. 3U (AP) Commander Daniel Do herty of the American Legion, ar riving here today aboard the Washington, declared Americana in the future would light only in defense of their homeland. "War is futile." the newly-elected commander asserted. "Million of lives were thrown awuy In the last war for nothing, because no one gain by war and the misery of that war still remains." The Washington brought 67b Lfglonnatrps to Plymouth. ROSEBURG, Ore., Sept. 30. (AP) Holding the Oregon 1935 pinball license law "void for uncertainty, ' Circuit Judge Carl E. Wimberly re verted to the state gambling statutes and declared operation of pinball games Illegal, in an opinion handed down here today. Acconrpanylng the opinion was an order dismissing the Injunction sun of Earl Bush, Douglas county pin ball operator, and lifting the re straining order against the Dan placed by District Attorney J. V. Long upon the machines August IS. The opinion of Judge Wimberly attacks the validity of the 1935 law, which permits municipalities and counties to license or prohibit pin ball games, from a different angle than heretofore considered, holding that the statute is so uncertain that Its meaning and application cannot be determined. I Conflict of Authority. I "So far as the wording of the act Is concerned, a municipal corpora-! tlon might license pinball games and at the same time the county m which the city is located might pro-. feiblt their operation; or. on the Cher hand, the county might license such games throughout the whole aounty. including the municipal cor porations therein, and at the same time such municipalities might pro hibit their operation. "It will. thus, be seen that there might easily be a conflict of author Ity. There is nothing in this statute from which it might be determined whether the acts of the counties or the cities would control; and, so far as I have been able to discover, there is no rule of statutory con struction for the determination of that question. For these reasons, it Is my opinion that chapter 369 is void for uncertainty." Lottery Law Unquestioned. There is no question as to the validity of the state lottery or gam bling statute, the court holds In de claring that if the contention oi the plaintiff operator is true that pinball games are not a violation ot these statutes, "he has an adequate remedy at law and equity would not have Jurisdiction to interfere by in junction or otherwise." Citing court decisions given on "beano" games and. particularly, the opinion of Mr. Justice McBrtde, Judge Wimberly says in his opinion "there " is no real distinction, from a legal standpoint, between 'beano' and pinball game." "The evil effect of the operation of pinball games has come to the attention of this court through the necessity of sentencing a man wltn a previous criminal record to a term In the penitentiary for stealing money from his employer and using tne same In playing pinball machines. Judge Wimberly says in concluding his opinion. Carl E. Wimberly, holding the gam ing devices Illegal. Sheriff Percy Webb this morning set the deadline for midnight Saturday. October a.
