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

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,

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

Rebels Challenge
Other Resolutions
(Continued from page 1)
Although badly outnumber
ed, the rebels in varying
numbers appeared from time
to time to challenge other
resolutions, especially one
lambasting fluoridation. 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.
