RECEIVER SUITS
CHARGING FRAUD
RULED ILLEGAL
Unable to Represent In
dividuaI Rights, State
Supreme Court Decides.

Receivers are barred from suing
in behalf of stockholders to recover
money alleged to have been obtained
through fraud, in a decision handed
down Wednesday by the Indiana SUI
preme court in the case of the In
diana Citizens Building, Savings
and Loan Association.
The case originated in Marion
county circuit court in 1925 when
Charles J. Orbison, president, and
other officials were defendants in a
suit filed by the late H. H Clair,
former receiver for the association.
In behalf of 300 stockholders,
Clair received a $4,000 judgment
and Orbison and his fellow defend
ants appealed to the appellate court.
The case was transferred to the SUI
preme court when appellate judges
were divided equally.
In stating its opinion, the court
holds that a receiver stepped into
the shoes of the corporation" and
that insofar as the rights of the in
dividual stockholders against the
corporation were concerned, the re-
ceiver had no right to press action
for the benefit Of the several men,
berS of the corporation.
Such right, if any," the court

CONGRATULATIONS. RIVERSIDE

Imperial Valley, in common with all
Southern California and other sections
of the state, is happy to extend congratu-
lations to the city of Riverside, which is
this week celebrating its fiftieth anniver-
Sary.
Since the earliest days of the valleys
settlement, Riverside has been closely
connected with US by social and CONNER
cial ties. Riverside citizens have invest
ed their money in Imperial Valley, Civ
ing absolute proof of their desire for this
community to prosper, and have aided in
many ways and on many occasions, the
efforts of Imperial Valley to develop its
resources and take its place with other
prosperous and progressive communities
in the Southland.
Primarily home city, Riverside is
nevertheless keenly aware of the neces-
slty of developing its commercial attrib-
utes and has made splendid progress in
this respect, without sacrificing that in
detinable, but always apparent, atmos-
phere that distinguishes the home city
from those devoted entirely to CONNER
cial or manufacturing pursuits.
Fifty years sometimes seems a long
while, but so years is only brief span
in the life of a community. Riverside is
really a youngster, just getting its bear
ings after the pioneering period 1t en-
tiers its second half-century not only with
a splendid prospect for peace, content
ment and progress, but with the good
wishes of all its neighbors
