result that the basketball rules. when

That is an entirely different pr0po-

Contract Involved.
The rest OF the afternoon was taken
up by arguments by q. A. ShaIIberg,
counsel for Paul Lorenz, contractor.
He explained that his client was. per
haps, more vitality interested in the
outcome of the litigation than any Of
the other parties to the suit, inasmueh
as it involved the validity of his CON
tract with the county board.
Mr.. ShaIberg argued that the legis-
lature did not have the power to i'm
pair contracts made by "a county with
an individual, stating that the situa-
ton was the same as il two iudiyid-
uaIs were concerned. He said the con
stitutiou OF the United States prohib-
tied state legislatures from passing
laws which interfered with valid con
tracts. He claimed that the authorj-
ties held, if a contract is made be
tween the time a bill is signed and
the time it becomes effective, the old
law should govern.
He said that as far back as the
March meeting, plans for the Jail had
been approved and a contract entered
into with an architect, bids being ad-
yertised for June 8. He said MT Lor-
enz had filed at that time a certified
check for $3.50. which he would have
lost had he not entered into a contract
with the board after being awarded
the work He claimed that on June
25 Mr. Lorenz entered into a contract
for material which it was imperative
should be closed at that time, since
his bid had been based on prices Of
material at that time. He said the
only law read into the contract had
been the old law, since the new law
lid not go into effect until July i, as
It had no emergency clause attached.
