Willamette University, Salem, to ex plain 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 dif fering facts may change the outcome. Partnership by Estoppel Smith and Johnson, men of moderate means, form a part nership to engage in the clothing business. After-some years of operation, they hire Brown, a young man with a sizeable estate of his own. Brown, in going about as con fidential clerk of the firm, contrives to give many peo ple the impression, either by direct statements, or by veil ed hints, that he is a partner in the business. Allen, a clothing manufac turer, believing that Brown is a partner, on the strength of his credit sells the firm a large order of goods. Before this bill is paid, the partner ship assets are exhausted. Brown is liable, jointly with Smith and Johnson, for the whole debt, just as though he were a partner. In legal term- ology, Brown is 'estopped' from denying to' Allen that he is a partner because he had previously given the op posite impression. Moreover . . if Brown does not himself represent that he is a partner, but allows Smith or Johnson to intro duce him to a customer as "Mr. Brown of our firm" or "my partner, Mr. Brown" he will make himself responsi ble to the customer as a part ner. If Brown has stood by and allowed , himself to be represented as a partner without protest, the effect is the same as if he had made the representation himself. A more frequent case is where a partner retires from his firm without giving no tice of his withdrawal to the partnership s customers or clients. Persons selling goods or rendering services to the firm think he is still a mem ber, and, subsequently, when the firm fails, he finds that he is liable to these persons as if he had remained a part ner. The courts reason that it is fair that a man who allows others to think that he is a member of a firm, should be held responsible to persons giving the firm credit on the faith of this supposition, and that he should be liable to the same extent as if he were actually a partner. This is called "partnership of estop pel." Foreign Labor Said Lowering Vages Los Angeles (CPU Labor Secretary James P. Mitchell said today cheap foreign la bor was pulling down wages and forcing U. S. farm work ers to live in conditions that were "an affront to the con science of the American peo ple." Mitchell reiterated his pro mise to draft legislation set tling minimum wages and hours for U. S. farm workers and regulating imported for eign help. He said the Labor Department was studying the matters. - A;&&mz Veep' Uuktj Vago) PUT IT TO THE TEST!
