This column is prepared as a public service by the College of Law, Willamette University, Salem, to explain basic legal principles, not to provide legal advice. The reader is cautioned not to apply these cases to his own problems without an attorney's advice, for differing facts may change the outcome. Juvenile Judges Form Association Newport, Ore. (IPI Delegates to a conference of juvenile officers from Oregon counties meeting here formed the Oregon Juvenile Judges Association, with members in cluding judges and juvenicl directors. Each county would supply two representatives to the group. New officers elected were Judge R. E. Renne, Yamhill county, president; Joseph B. Felton, Marion county, vice president; and Robert D. Mac Lean, Lincoln county, secretary-treasurer. Gov. Robert D. Holmes addressed the opening session of the two-day meeting and told delegates that juvenile courts in Oregon are handi capped by inadequate staffs, confused and outdated laws, public indifference and a lack of closer communication and action between state agencies. The governor said a good juvenile code revision in this state would help make the needed corrections. Finders Are Not Always Keepers Chambermaid Bessie B. found a stack of crisp dollar bills in one of the dresser drawers of the hotel room she was cleaning. She took the money to the hotel owner who put it in the hotel safe and advertised the finding in the local newspaper.' After several weeks in which no one had claimed the money, Bessie brought a legal action against the hotel to recover it. But "finders weren't keep ers" in this case, and the court held the hotel could keep the money unless it was claimed, by the owner within the time prescribed by law. In, the firstTace, Bessie haf a. re&d Slfsubmit all found a.:ticles, the hotel manage ment. Secondly, the money had obviously been placed in the drawer only a day or two before Bessie found it, and the hotel guest would prob ably remember where he had placed it and return for the money. Because Bessie might de cide to leave the state short ly after receiving the money, it is considered advisable to have the hotel keep the money. Even if Bessie did not j abscond, it would be easier for the loser to recover the money if it is kept in the hotel where he lost it. This Time the Finders Were the Keepers . Tim and Jim were hired to clean Farmer Brown's chicken house. While digging in the dirt floor the boys found some old coins in a decayed sack. Although the coins did not be long to Farmer Brown, he de manded the find and later re fused to return the coins to the boys. When they brought ; an action to recover them, the court held that Farmer Brown must return thl coins to Tim ; and Jim. The boys had not j promised to give found articles , to him; and. because the coins j had apparently been buried j UNITED NATIONS LAWN ; : South Portland, Me. itP) The Egbert Farnhams family has a United Nations lawn. About 130 truckloads of fill were secured from dirt ballast dumped here by incoming vessels from European coun tries. i in the chicken house for a long time, the person . who placed them there was prob ably dead. When Joe stepped into Ye Fashion Shoppe, he picked up a shiny object from the floor and discovered that it was a diamond ring. He refused to give the ring to the proprietor of the store, and the proprie tor brought legal action against Joe for the ring. The court held for Joe. The court will usually fa vor the finder of an object rather than the owner of the land on which it was discov ered. However, if the finder has promised to give all such articles to the owner or if the loser comes back to claim his property, then the court will not favor the finder. The phrase '"finders keepers, losers weepers" has no legal founda tion, for the law requires every effort be made to re unite the loser and his prop erty. In Oregon the finding must be advertised and the loser has a year to claim his property. Turkish Cypriots Baffle Police Nicosia, Cyprus ' (IP). More than 1,000 Turkish Cypriots battled British po lice and troops with stones and bottles Monday but final ly were dispersed with tear gas. The demonstration was timed to coincide with the opening of the Baghdad Pact meeting in Ankara where Cy prus Governor Sir High Foot has flown for talks with Brit ish Foreign Secretary Selwyn Lloyd. the lurkish minority on j Cyprus is violently opposed to demands by the Green ma jority for union with Greece. 1 They apparently felt the gov ernor was leaning too far to ward the Greeks.
