Circuit Judge James W. Craw ford, in a ruling handed down Monday, upheld the constitution ality of Oregon's urban rede velopment law; which sanctions the proposed project, to develop the 44-block area for industrial purposes. Suit Brings Ruling The ruling was presented in a suit attacking legality of the act brought by Mr. and Mrs. H. J. Foeller, owners of a residence in the area to be redeveloped. The city of Portland, which ini tiated the proposal for the proj ect, and the Portland Housing Authority, which is to direct the development of the area, were defendants in the suit. Unlawful Power Charged The Foellers contended the law violates the constitution in that it constitutes an unlawful delegation of legislati've power, authorizes the granting of privi leges to purchasers or lessees, and confer upon a housing au thority the power of eminent domain. When he dismissed the case, Judge Crawford said the Vaughn street sector is a "blighted area" within the meaning of the act and on the basis of investigation and research a redevelopment plan has been proposed which is entirely within the authority con ferred by the act.
