Mr. Stewart was a member of Siskiyou Chapter 21, R A M, Malta Command ery No. 4, Knights Templar, Ashland Lodge No. 23, AF&AM, H i 1 1 a h Temple, Flood Control Said Not Justification For Dams (Continued from Page 1) Hatch emphasized more than once that a dam or dams on the Rogue river Jould never be justified on the ba sis of flood control alone. A dam at Lewis creek with a re-regulating dam close to Trail, or a three-dam alter native, with the main dam be ing located at Lost creek and smaller dams at the mouths of Elk creek and Big Butte creek, have both been under study. Trie three-darn alterna tive would have slightly less power potential than a high dam at Lewis creek, he said. Three-Dam Plan If the alternative were to be carried out, anything less than three dams at these sites would not be sufficient for flood control purposes, and would not be economically feasible, he said. Some of the factors weighing against a high dam at Lewis creek are that it might block access to fish spawning areas on the river, would necessitate some sort of highway relocation and would inundate devel oped areas of homes and re sorts. The three-dam alternative weighed against the Lewis creek site would seem to fa vor the three-dam plan, from the standpoint of fish and wildlife, he said. However, Hatch went on to say that there is a far greater need for storage water for conserva tion purposes than there is a need for flood control. Stor age for irrigation and power would go much farther to w a r d justifying reservoirs than flood control alone would, he explained. Hatch spoke of the ques tions that he had heard voiced many times on the possibility of dams on the river leaving huge mud banks during certain seasons, and said that owing to the steep slopes of the terrain there would be little likelihood of such mud banks. He told of the Fern Ridge reservoir What Is The Law? 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 lo his own problems without an attorney's advice, for differing facts may change the outcome. Tavern Owner's Wife Cowed By Dilworth's Hatchet Dilworth came to a tavern at a very late hour. It was closed but he beat on the door and demanded some wine. The tavern owner's wife opened the window, leaned out and told him that the tavern was closed for the night. Dilworth thereupon hurled a hatchet at her; and although it missed her, she was greatly frighten ed. The tavern owner's wife sought to recover damages for this fright. This was in England in 1348. The court involved was one of the first to recognize that in such a case an "as sault" had been committed. The wife was awarded the damages she sought. In simi lar case today, over 600 years later, practically all courts would arrive at the same con clusion. Reasonable Reaction Today's courts point out the essence of an "assault" is the fear or apprehension created in the mind of the per son assaulted. This, of course, must be a reasonable reaction, and the wrongdoer must in tend to do the act which causes it. Usually the courts require that the wrongdoer have, the apparent ability to cause a harmful or offensive contact with the person claiming to have been assaulted. In a case about 30 years ago, a tenant was moving from her apartment when the landlord appeared on the scene. Bran dishing a pistol, he threaten ed to shoot the tenant if she persisted in moving from the apartment. He actually point ed the pistol toward her. When she sued the landlord, AAONMS, and B.P.O.E. No. 944, Ashland. Other survivors include four sons, Victor V. and W. Hugh, both of Ashland, Dwight D., Los Angeles, and Charles S., Sunland, Calif.; one daughter, Mrs. Sybyl V. Avery, Ashland; two stepsons, Eugene G. Greene, Lakeland, Calif., and Fred W. Greene, Norwalk, Calif.; 13 grand children and two great grand children. The family requests that in lieu of flowers money be contributed to the Heart Fund. PLAZA HOTEL PORTLAND, OREGON Single with Bath $4.00 New Low Family Rate Plan Shoppingly Located Broadway at Washington C. V. Cooley, Mgr. on Rogue where, in spite of some mud banks, a great recreational development has taken place with sailing boats on the lake and other recreational facili ties available. Some of the facts brought out during a question period were that the time in which to pay back the cost of the dam or dams would be either 40 or 50 years, although there have been cases of a 100-year pay period being granted. The sale of power will help pay the cost of the dam, and the federal government does not need to be reimbursed for flood control. Fish Could Be Planted Fish could be planted in the upper reservoir lakes and there would be excellent trout fishing, with recreation al facilities being built up around the lake. An irrigation canal will be built on each side of the valley from the Trail diversion dam and the lake would be open to such concessions as boat landings and stores that could be reached by a road which would encircle the lake. The engineers would provide for new roads where backwaters would flood existing roads. In the three-dam alternative the water would back up Elk creek approximately four to five miles and up Big Butte creek approximately four miles to Clark creek. A dam on Trail creek would never be economically feasible. The approximate time re quired to build a big dam is frpm three to five years, Hatch said. In closing he said that the recommendations of the Army engineers are ex pected to be ready some time this year and that further public hearings would be held then. . He urged residents to at tend future meetings to make their views known, or to write a letter setting forth their opinions so they can be read and considered at the meetings. he claimed that the pistol was not loaded and so he could not have shot her. The court, in holding the landlord liable, pointed out that the tenant did not know that the pistol was unloaded and so was cer tainly reasonable in being ap prehensive for her immediate safety. Although it is necessary in such a case that the wrongdoer intend to do the act, it is not necessary that he intend to frighten any specific person in order to be held liable. Students Assaulted If Dick threatens a teacher by waving a hand grenade and shouting he is going to throw it into the classroom, he will have assaulted all the students who become frightened with the teacher even though Dick had no intent nor desire to harm or frighten the students. In an early case one man said to another, as he put his hand on his sword, "If the court were not in session, I would not take such language from you." It was decided that there was no asault because the statement clearly indi cated that he would do nothing immediately. There fore, the act could not make one reasonably apprehensive for his immediate safety. Most courts agree with this. However, if the person mak ing such a statement is so up set or angry that he cannot be trusted as responsible, then his threat may well be an as sault DEDICATION SET Greenville, Tenn.

One popped up and warned that the DAR was being used as a front for screwballs who oppose fluoridation. The warning went unheeded after another Daughter reported: "Fluoridation and the gun are the two weapons used by Rus sia in prison camps. When they can't control them with fluorida tion, they shoot them." Another added that through fluoridation the "in ternationalists plan to weaken all human beings so that they can work out their plans for world government." The anti-fluoridation resolve car ried heavily. Then there was the resolu tion opposing registration of firearms for fear invading Communists would obtain lists and seize citizens owning guns. Those who sought to ex plain that the FBI and police use registration to fight crimi nals were easily overrun iJy ladies who said it was more important to protect Ameri cans who wished to protect their homes with firearms. Cannonading and musket fire from the DAR Congress momentarily drowned out talk of H-bombs in the Con gress sitting on Capitol Hill. Sputter in Confusion On the final resolution, rebel opponents finally won the day, causing the Presi dent General and her staff to sputter in momentary confu sion when only six Daughters stood up to endorse this re solve. Had this resolution carried, it would have con demned a proposed new bridge across the Potomac river near Lincoln Memorial just down Constitution ave. from the DAR hall. "Please let us have our bridge,", pleaded a Daughter from Virginia. They did. And its a good thing, because if things are as bad as the rest of the DAR resolutions pic ture them, we'll peed it as a jumping off place.
