point of announcing his decision,
he said he would use q prerogative
often employed by the state SUI
preme court: he would sustain the
demurrer on one point. and after
that the other points needn't be
considered.
The court granted the REALTORS

means that the whole action may
be entirely opened again with
mere change of names of the de-
PENDANT parties: exactly the same
individuals will be named. but in
their proper capacity AZ the can

Judge Hodge thus sidestepped
the need to rule on the question
OF whether the action was brought
prematurely, or whether Gen.
Stone is In fact eligible to be a

Judge Hodge did comment upon
the operation of the constitution

this position: that If he did rule
