Redden Leads Fight to
Remove Penalty Clause
Salem Representative
James A. Redden (D-Jackson),
Medford attorney, led the
floor fight in1 the House of
Representatives for the Sen
ate Joint Resolution removing
capital punishment from the
Oregon Constitution, recently
The resolution, calling for a
referral to the voters, would
remove any reference to cap
ital punishment from the con
stitution. Contending that capital
punishment was no deterrent
to crime, Redden stated that
in Michigan, where there has
been no capital punishment
for more than 100 years, there
has been no higher crime rate
than in states that have cap
ital punishment. He also em
phasized the dangers of hu
man error, citing cases where
persons were wrongfully con
victed and wrongfully execut
ed. "Execution is a luxury only
the poor can afford," Redden
declared. He then presented
statistics indicating that in the
21 years preceding 1958 every
person executed in Oregon
had been defended by court
appointed counsel.
Redden also led debate on
SB 10, designed to implement
the resolution by providing
life imprisonment. This bill
was referred to the Commit
tee on Constitutional Revision
to consider further amend
ments. Redden expected it to
be on the Governor's desk bv
the end of the session.

BUILDING YOUR HOME
When you are ready to
build,, you will find that the
law helps in many ways to
make your home more en
joyable and secure.
When you decide on the
type of house you want and
the amount you want to
spend, then go into details.

Certificate Bill
Nears Senate Vote
Washington -IIIPU- The Sen
ate was expected today to
pass legislation ending the
silver backing of $1 and $2
bills.
The legislation, which has
been approved by the House
and is supported by silver
mining states, would replace
silver certificates with fed
eral reserve notes backed by
25 per cent gold.
Under the bill, the govern
ment would end its purchases
of silver. It would use 1.6
billion ounces of bullion now
in Treasury vaults for produc
tion of coins. This supply is
expected to last up to 18
years.
The bill repeals the 30-
year-old Silver Purchase Act
now considered obsolete as
far as controlling the price of
silver.
Sponsors said the legisla
tion was necessary due to
rising costs and underproduc
tion of silver. The price on
the open market is now close
to the point where it would
be profitable for citizens to
cash $1 and $2 bills for the
silver back of them.

or make any Improvements
for which you can be assessed.
(b) What restrictions are
imposed in the plot? To pro
tect residents, the plats or
basic deeds of some neigh
borhoods call on you to build
a certain size type of house.
(c) Either you or your
neighbors may need to run
pipes, or string wires over
each other's land or to share
a driveway. Have the ab
stract checked carefully to
disclose any easements.
2. Zoning Ordinances: For I
your protection the local gov-'
eminent zones some areas,
for example, for single houses
only, for multiple dwellings,
for retail stores, for manu
facturing, etc. In any case,
you should find out what your
neighborhood zoning rules
are:
3. Building Codes: Be cer
tain that the plans and con
struction will meet the re
quirements of the local build
ing codes as to size, location
and structure. Municipal or
dinances usually impose strict
standards for the building,
the plumbing and electrical
wiring.
4. Financing: Financing
contracts protect both you and
the lender. Unless you pay
cash, you will use credit to
pay for your house, most
likely a mortgage or a land ;
contract. Your installments !
often include principal, inter-1
est, insurance and taxes. j
Well worked-out contracts
can help make your dream
house come true. A construc
tion contract or a so-called
"earnest -, money" agreement
or receipt is no job for an
amateur. Your lawyer is
trained by education and ex
perience to protect your best
interests in contracting and
closing real estate deals.
You know what you want.
You should be careful to get
what you want.
