If this isn’t a great time to get yourself
a new Chevrolet—well, we just don’t
know when is. Why, you’d almost have
to be anti-summer not to let one of
these four convertibles
get to you. Or any of
Chevrolet’s sedans, 4
wagons, sport coupes
and sport sedans, for
that matter.
And there are a lot
of other buy-now j
reasons besides the *
season. Like the care- >
free feeling you get on
a long vacation trip in a brand-new car.
And it’s a smart time to trade, what
with your Chevrolet dealer all stocked
up for a busy summer. Chances are, he
has just the model
and color you want
— be it Chevrolet,
Chevy II, Corvair or
Corvette^ready to go
right now.
So maybe now
you’re all wound up?
Then spring into
summer at your
Chevrolet dealer’s.
At its peak of activity, about 40,000
men were at work on the Panama
Canal at one time.

Thus suppose for lack of due care
a private bakery truck should harm
your child who had done nothing to
bring on the accident. Well then,
most likely you could sue the bakery
in the child’s behalf and collect dam-
ages.
Recently this doctrine has been at-
tacked: Why shouldn’t the govern-

Tourists who embark at the airport
in Las Vegas, Nev., where gambling
is legal, may wonder to whom the
airport slot machines belong. Origin-
ally they were installed by Western
Airlines, which discovered that the
revenue from the slot machines ex-
ceeded the revenue from passenger
travel. That was more than a decade
ago. The new one-armed bandits ac-
count for $190,000 a year, which
goes to the county airport — $63,000
more than what the airport collects
annually in landing fees.

PERMISSION NEEDED TO
SUE THE STATE
How could anybody ever say: “The
king can do no wrong”? (When we
know of kings who did do wrong.)
The idea looks simple: As absolute
law maker, the king could hold him-
self above his own law. He was under
no law and could therefore do no
legal wrong.
Anyway, when King George lost
the thirteen colonies, the American
states took over the doctrine of So-
vereign Immunity: Nobody can sue a
government agency without the
state’s permission, when the agency
is doing government work. (Of
course if the agency is doing “pro-
prietary functions” like running
street cars or making electricity, it
may often be sued much like any

TOMBSTONE, Ariz. — There’s an
eight-year-old cow down Tombstone
way that can flash a shiny set of
choppers with every moo.
Dr. Charles Behney, a Bisbee,
Ariz., veterinarian, fitted the cow
with a set of stainless steel teeth in
an effort to prove his claim that
cows will be healthier, happier and
more productive of calves if they
have dentures to replace teeth worn
down and decayed after years of
grazing.
The dentures cost $20 a set and
are expected to last from three to five
years. The experiment is being con-
ducted on the J ack Duran ranch near
here.

last war. And the courts much more
often than Congress now set the
damages in many kinds of cases.
In Texas, the Legislature by a pro-
per action may permit certain gen-
eral types of suits to be brought a-
gainst the state, under various con-
ditions and restrictions. Then, if a
specific situation arises which is not
covered by the general rules, the
legislators are authorized to pass a
special measure to permit suit to be
brought.
Therefore, any person seeking to
enforce a claim against the State of
Texas through the courts must peti-
tion the Legislature for the necessary
permission, unless his claim falls
within some general category or
type previously recognized by our
lawmakers. During each session, the
Legislature passes legislation allow-
ing suits to be brought against the
state in a variety of cases.
Sometimes, however, suits may
be brought against individuals hold-
ing office under the State of Texas
and acting as agents of the state, but
where the state itself is not the prin-
cipal party to the suit, without first
gaining consent to sue. There are
numerous situations in which an in-
dividual officer may be sued with
regard to the duties and functions of
his office, and in which the state is
not directly or substantially a party
in interest.
Suppose you do obtain legislative
permission to sue the state. What
happens then?
If suit is brought against the State
of Texas, and the action is successful-
ly prosecuted, you will be awarded a
judgment against the state. Then, it’s
back to the Legislature for more
legislation to appropriate the neces-
sary money with which the state may
pay off the judgment.
