Everyday Law Cases
May Agent Employ Subdgents
Without Express Consent
of Principal?
BY THE cot NSEiI.OR.

The Texas Products Co. appointed
Gilbert Camp as their agent for the
State OF Montana. Camp found the
Texas products met with general favor
In the city in which he opened Offices
Realizing that he could not cover the
State alone. Camp employed three SUBJ
agents TO assist him. Two months later,
Camp discovered that one of his SUBJ
agents had collected about 81 900 from
customers and had failed to account for
the money.
Camp Immediately reported this fact
to the Texas Products Co. The COM
pany. on receipt OF the report. informed
Camp that 1t expected him to pay 1t the
money embezzled.
When Camp refused the demand.
the company filed suit, contending that
1t had never given Camp authority tn
employ subagents, and. as he had ex-
ceeded his authority, he must bear the
loss.
Camp claimed. however. that by be-
ing assigned to such a large territory. it
vas implied that he had authority to
employ subagents TO enable him TO
cover the assigned section.
The court upheld Camps view of the
situation. stating:
IF an agent is employed to perform
certain work for principal and the
work is such that 1t would be impossible
for the agent to do IL alone. he may
employ subagents TO assist him. His
authority is assumed from The nature OF
the agency"

pair in the open taking a position
against protection for the farmer or
anybody else.
Pease admits that Garner opposed
the emergency tariff measure, which
was solely a measure for the farm
ers and stockmen, and declares that
any honorable representative would
have done the same thing. But
Claud Hudspeth didn't, and Morris
Sheppard didn't, and Mr.. Pease
knows that they didn't.
Anyway. the farmer is now on
guard. John Garner is not a pro-
tectionist to the extent of voting any
tariff safeguards for him. That is
his past record and Pease makes il
plain that that will be his future
course, and if he is reelected, and
