Oregon Supreme
Court Decisions
Saleni-ilim-The Oregon Su
preme Court Monday in a
ruh of year-end decisions per
manently disbarred two at
torneys, reversed one lower
c0Urt decision, reversed and
remanded three others, and
affirmed nine lower court
rulings.
Permanently disbarred
were Cecil William Dobson,
former Salem attorney, and
Harry W. Matthews, former
Newport attorney.
Dobson had been convicted
of larceny by embezzlement,
and was suspended from the
practice of law at the time
of his conviction. Permanent
disbarment action was taken
upon recommendation of the
board of governors of the Ore
gon Stale Bar.
Matthews had been con-
vicled in Lincoln county of
drawing a check without suf
ficient funds and also of the
crime of larceny by embezzle
ment. He did not contest the
debarment proceedings.
Decisions Affirmed
Three of the high court de
cisions affirmed lower court
actions involving appeals by
Chester Raymond Hedrick of
Portland.
One upheld an order by
Multnomah : County Circuit
Judge Paul R. Harris denying
lledrick's motion to dismiss
another of the indictments
brought against him on a
charge of assault with intent
to commit rape. Since the
actual trial was stayed pend
ing this appeal, the matter
will now go back for trial.
Another upheld lledrick's
conviction on a charge of
rape for which he was sen
tenced to a term not exceed
ing 20 years by Multnomah
County Circuit Judge James
W. Crawford. The court had
overruled Hcdrick's claim of
misconduct by the district at
torney in prosecuting the
case.
The thii d decision involved
lledrick's pica of guilty and
sentencing to 20 years in pris
on on a charge of assault with
intent to commit rape. Sen
tence was made by Circuit
Court Judge Charles V.
Redding. Hedrick had at
tempted to prove the court er
red in sentencing him.
Clackamas Verdict Reversed
The high court reversed a
verdict of Clackamas County
Circuit Judge Howard J.
Blanding in an action on a
workman's compensation
claim.
Walter Whitlock, a member
of the Future Farmers of
America club at Sandy, con
tracted lead poisoning while
engaged in painting the sum
mit house at Government
Camp.
Whitlock did not get paid
for the work, as the money
earned was to raise a fund.
The high court declared Whit
lock was an employee, and
entitled to benefits of Ihe
Wo r k m e n' s Compensation
Act.
Reversed and remanded to
Washington County Circuit
Judge J. S. Bohannon for ac
tion was a suit to set aside
transfer of assets and impress
a trust on the proceeds of the
sale. The action involved
Oreen Brownson, a creditor
of Loren Lewis, who sold a
portion of his business to Ed

ed for further proceedings

ty Circuit Judge Pro Tern E.
O. Stadter Jr., involving the

the sale to Donald G. and
Nancy K. Miller after the
pureh isers stopped payment

Oregon Crop
Production Up
During Past Year
Portland - ll'PII - Oregon
produced crops worth $25:1
million in 10U2, eight per cent
above last year, according to
the Oregon Crop and Live
stock Service.
In its annual summary, the
agency said the increase was
due to higher per acre yields
and slightly stronger prices.
The value of field crops,
seeds and berries showed
gains, the agency said, while
tree fruits, nuts and vegetable
crops declined.
Oregon's leading ten crops
for 1962, accounting for 73
per cent of the value of Ore
gon's 1962 production, were
wheat, hay, barley, potatoes,
snap beans, pears, straw
berries, rye grass seeds, cher
ries and oats.
Cash Value Down
The report said vegetable
production was up seven per
cent this year, but its cash
value was down a fraction.
Vegetable production was est
imated at 575.200 tons.
Berry production, of 132
million pounds was up 18 per
cent from 19B1. It included a
record 22.8 million poimd
blackberry crop.
Production of Oregon's 14
major grass and legume seed
crops is eslimated at 249 mil
lion pounds worth nearly S23
million this year, compared to
197 million pounds and $13.5
million in 1961.

Overhauling of
Oregon Court
Services Urged
Portland - WPII - The Ore
gon Council on Crime and De
linquency has called on the
legislature to take steps to
overhaul Oregon's court serv
ices that relate to children
and families.
The recommendation was
contained in a report issued
by the council.
The court said cases involv
ing families are now dispersed
"among five separate and in
dependent courts on a hodge
podge and overlapping basis."
Cases involving children and
parents may go to municipal,
justice, county, district or cir
cuit courts.
The report said a related
problem is the lack of skilled
staff workers, psychiatric
help, and other qualified to
deal with and treat family
problems.
The council said the first
step toward an overhaul of
Oregon's court services to fam
ilies should be a study "by an
objective, technically qual
ified organization, preferably
from outside the state."
The report said the study
should be made for the legis
lature, and should include an
outline of a feasible court
structure that would provide
a unified approach to family
matters. The council said the
study also should include rec
ommendations for the "diag
nostic and treatment lools"
that courts should be able to
call on in dealing with families.

Divided on Effect
Of IRS Crackdown
Editor'! note - Ths gov
ernment'! crackdown on ex
pense account spending has
been ci'ed as the reason for
the closing of two Holly
wood restaurants. Restau
rant and night club owners
in other ciliei are divided
as lo how much the new
laws will hurt them. United
Press International polled

est priced night spots on
whether the era of the big
lime spender is coming io
an end.
er f rankle Avalon
Tells Wedding Plans
Hollywood - IUPII - Singer
Frankic Avalon, 22, has an
nounced plans to marry model
Kay Diebcl, a former Miss
Rhinegold contestant, in June.
Avalon, currently appear
ing at the Sands Hotel in Las
Vegas, New, said Monday he
and his 24-year-old bride-to-be
became engaged Sunday night
at a party attended by his
parents, Dick and Mary Aval
lone of Philadelphia.
By GENE BLUDEAU
UPI Correspondent
When "Prince Mike" Ro
manoff closes his Hollywood
restaurant today many night
club owners in other cities
will be mourning with him.
Like the bogus prince, they
fear the government's new
lax policies may be the last
nail in the coffin of the big
time expense account spender.
Romanoff summed it up
Dec. 19 by announcing that
after 12 years he was locking
Ihe door on his restaurant be
cause "costs arc prohibitive
and with the new lax condi
tions it makes it completely
impossible."
Restaurant and supper club
owners in some cities scoffed
at Romanoff's self-proclaimed
woes. Most expected govern
ment requirements for strict
accounting of expense account
splurging would have some
effect. But the dissenters said
they were doing fine and ex
pected to keep it up.
Toots Shor. prominent New
York saloon keeper, summed
up this view: "It's like an
athlete. When you got it,
you're there. When you're
out, you're out."
Side With Prince
Others, particularly in the
West and in Florida, were in
the Romanolf camp. One, ex-
movie comedian Ben Blue,
beat the prince to the punch.
Blue moaned the passing of
his live-it-up and charge-it-up
clientele as he closed his San
ta Monica, Calif., supper club
Dec. 17.
The poker-faced comedian
said an analysis of patronage
during the past three months
revealed "a conspicuous ab
sence of credit card and
charge account patrons."
"It's going to be a slow
dollar from now on for the
night clubs," Blue said.
Dave Chascn, owner oi' an
other Hollywood restaurant,
said the restriction on ex
pense account entertainment
"hurls all around ... it was a
stupid thing for the govern
ment to do."
To take up Ihe slack, Chas
cn suggested that business
men be allowed to bring their
wives along on across - the
table business deals. "Some
times the wife is the greatest
asset." he said.
Outlook Gloomy
Miami hotel owners also re
ported a gloomy outlook for
19(13 and blamed a growing
scarcity of credit card bon
vivants.
"The crackdown on ex
pense accounts has hurt us
Dennis the Menace
. noticeably because when peo
ple know they will have to ac
I count for their spending, they
don't spend so much," said
the manager of the American
Hotel.
Sun Francisco restaurants
reported expense account
spending down from 5 to 10
per cent and hotels said a
similar tailing off was show
ing up in rentals.
Operators of swank restau
rants in Washington, DC,
agreed with Romanoff that
new tax laws have affected
business. Most outspoken was
Mrs. Jean Martin, who man
ages the Espionage and Rue
Royal restaurants in George
town. She said, "I'm getting
worried to death."
In Denver, managers of the
five plushiest oaling spots
said they could feel the law
pinch. Peter Delias of ihe
Plus Horse restaurant said
Ihe evening trade has been
affected "and I'm concerned
about it as is everybody."
Blame Business Drop
In New York and Chicago,
restaurant owners were in
clined lo pooh-pooh the Ro
manoff cry of woe. They
blamed declining business,
not tax laws, for the closing
of the prince's restaurant.
Robert Kricndler, president
of New York's 21 Club, said
the new law "will definitely
have some effect but 1 cer
tainly am not in a state of
panic. To turn in panic and
say that it will force rest
aurants to close down is just
as ridiculous as to say it will
have no effect."
Fred Clare, manager of the
Hotel Ambassador w h i c h 1
houses Chicago's Pump Room,
said he disagreed with Ro- I
manoff "100 per cent . . . our '
figures here show that only 5 I
per cent of night club and !
restaurant customers charge j
it. ihe otner 93 per cent are
using their own money."
Co-owner George Marion
IJial of Chicago's London ;
House and Mister Kelly's said
Romanoff was way off base.
"We're doing as well as ever,"
he said.
And in Boston, Edward
Davis, manager of Ihe Execu
tive Suite, reported things
rolling along at the same
pace.
"As for the big spenders, I
haven't seen any since the
speakeasy days," he said.
