Anyway, our pond didn't GO

Tweed Howser said he. too. was
surprised at the lack Of runoff
He said he expected everything
to be flooded, but about all that
happened was that the grass

course, nobody minds that and
expect there win be a little

It certainly will be nice to be

One trouble about rain is that
It makes the ground soft. and

Japanese Art
Exhibition Slated

Contemporary Japanese wood
cuts by Kiyoshi Saito and others
will be on exhibition from January
6 to February in the Seattle Art
Museum.
"This is one of the most exciting
exhibitions of contemporary Japa :
nese art that we have been privi-
legged to present So many Japa-
nese artists of the goth century
have produced either weak. cOnser-
vative works or half understood j.
mutations of the modern European
manner Kiyoshi Saito and his as
sociates seem to have digested all
they have learned from the West
while still retaining the Japanese
traditions of good design and ex-
cellent craftsmanship" the Seattle
Art Museum bulletin reports
Saito is largely self-taught and
though he has never left Japan
his prints have a strong interna-
tional flavor without loss of vigor
and strength He was selected as
one of the three outstanding Jap
anese artists in 1852 by the Japa-
nese art critics
Other artists are Un-Ichi Hira-
tsuka. Umetaro Azechi Fumio XII
taoka and Shiko Munakata.

. Minimizing Damages

In November John negligently
caused a fire in Jim's garage A
portion of the building was burned
and Jim's machinery was exposed
to the elements
Jim saw the machinery lying a
round and decided he would just
leave it there for a while. Several
days later it was covered by a
snow which lasted for several
weeks. When the snow melted
Jim noticed that his machinery
had rusted and as a result was use
less
He brought an action against
John for damages He said he was
entitled to recover for the cost of
repairing the building. for his loss
of profits. and also for the dam
age to his machinery John vigor-
ously denied that he was liable for
any damage to the machinery Re-
suit?
Jim cannot recover for the da-
images to his machinery Where
one person is injured by the wrong
(tort of another, the law requir-
es that the injured party minimize
the damages which he might suf-
fer from the wrong. and avoid all
damage. so far as is reasonably
possible
This does not require that he do
so at prohibitive expense or haz-
ard. However it does require that
the person use whatever reasona-
BILE means are available under the
circumstances. to prevent unneces-
sary damage.
Where a person fails to attempt
to minimize his injury. only those
damages which could not have
been reasonably avoided can be
recovered
In this case Jim could have pre-
vented the damage to his machin-
cry merely by placing them within
a shelter, without great expense or
hazard. The law requires that he
perform such a minor act and pre-
vent the possible damage. Since
Jim failed to do so the law will de-
ny him recovery for those damag-
es suffered through the failure to
perform such a reasonable act.

The report then cited a portion
of the House Judiciary Committee
report on the original JACL-spon-
sored evacuation claims legislation
in the 80th Congress-
The committee considered the
argument that the victims of the
relocation were no more casualties
of the war then were many milli-
ons of other Americans who lost
their lives or their homes or occu-
patiOns during the war However
this argument was considered te-
nable since in the instant case
the loss was inflicted upon spe-
cial group by a voluntary act of
the government without precedent
in the history of this country.
Not to redress these loyal AM
orleans in some measure of the
wrongs inflicted upon them would
provide ample material for attacks
by the followers of foreign ideOlo-
gies on the American way of life
and to redress them wOul be sim

then analysed the 3 900 remaining
evacuation claims and submitted
It's recommendation for future le-
gislation for the expeditions COM

very year in this country and we
pay about four million dollars an
nually for the treatment of this
ever-recurring malady
The total loss in wages because
OF colds is estimated to be about
42O million dollars each year for

Medical researchers have been
studying the disease for many
years but the virus has not yet

All that medical science has been
able to do for colds is to make
them more bearable. The hot foot

Earlier in the week a proposed
constitutional amendment was
introduced which would allow the
legislature to permit waiver of
jury trials in all non-capital cases
if the defendant is represented by
counsel. Although we now permit
trial of criminal cases in the low

true only of cases of petty mis-
demeanors in which an appeal
may be taken to the superior
court for a jury trial. Most of the
other states now allow defendants
