Ashurst was appointed as a

there until his retirement in
February, 1943.

Judges Debate Results
Of Stoirwoy Decision

The judges of the UniteC
States Court of Appeals today
divided 5 to 4 over whether a
personal---very. case sent back
to Municipal Court will lcause

sairways here.
The cause of this controversy
is the case of Mark w. Morgan
6, who fell off a stairway in
1858, gashing his head ano
causing his parents. Mr.. and
Mrs. Herbert N. Morgan, to pay
out $100 for 10 stitches and
other medical care.
The parents sued their land
lord, James E. Garris, and their
rental agent, Newcomb-Jones
Realty, Inc, originally seeking
$50,000 damages. The parents
claimed the landlord and agent
had allowed a dangerous condi-
ton to eXiSt-leaving the back
stairs of their home at 402e
First street NE. without a
proper railing.
The Morgans lost out in the
Municipal Court and in the
Municipal Court of Appeals,
but apparently have scored
their point with the United
States Appellate Court.
Judges Differ
Although five judges claim
that the landlord and rental
agent violated the housing
code, four other jurists said
they could see no violation OF
the code.
