IT'S YOUR LAW
Jtopccf far Lan Makee Draueraey Live
Under our dual system of govern
ment, two sets of law -state and fed
eral-m ay govern what we do.
State laws have traditionally gov
erned certain fields, for example,
the law of wills, e la te s, and trans
fers of property upon death. Each
state has its own rules on death tran
sfers, how to make wills and what
happens when a person die., without
a will.
But the federal government has
same power in this field.
In a dispute between the United
States and a state over a decedent's
estate, the U. S. Supreme Court set
forth same of the federal powers: A
war veteran died in a veteran’s hos
pital without a will or heirs. He had
some personal property. Under the
state law property reverted to the
state. Under federal law his property
goes to the United States.
The Supreme Court ruled that the
federal statute controlled and was va
lid under Congressional war powers.
When patients in a veterans’ hospi
tal die without wills or legal heirs all
their property goes to keep up veter
ans’ hospitals and recreation pro
grams.
Other veterans' laws have cut into
the states’ property laws. Federal
laws govern G. I., insurance.
As a rule people who live in fed
eral enclaves within a state must
obey state laws. Thus, Oregon law
governs civilians on federal military
and scientific areas, or workers on a
federal reservation as to wills, pro
perty, marriage and divorce. In the
case of crimes, there may sometimes
be con-current jurisdiction.
But the federal government may
pass laws to avoid conflict between
state laws and a national policy.

rest. We might claim damages.
We may want the court only to en
force an agreement we have with
someone by directing him to perform
a specified act. Maybe we want to
stop or prohibit an action or circum
stances that will cause us harm
Then it’s an injunction suit we want.
Maybe we want to get back some
thing other than money loaned. This
is known as "replevin.”
What it is, we’d be almost certain
to come out aliead in the long run
because we think about suing only as
a last resort, and only when our con
science tells us we are dead right.
We have faith that the law will pro
tect us, that a court will see that jus
tice is done.
