CAMERON, Circuit Judge
(concurring specially).
I concur fully in Judge WHITE-HURST’S able opinion.
To make out a case here under any theory of liability asserted — tort, warranty or whatever' — the plaintiff must show that there was something wrong with the press. He must show that it was defective.
Any machine made, no matter how “safe” it be, can and probably will sooner or later malfunction and cause injury if it is improperly used, maintained or cared for. Proof of malfunction and of injury does not, in and of itself, make out a case. Nothing more was shown here.
