Text Os letter •This la to advtoe you that on December 30, IBM. a petition tor the appointment of apprnlaert was filed in the court by John L. Voss, the former city attorney for the City of Decatur. Indiana. Os course, you realize that I have been very busy in other mattere. but I have made a diligent study of the petition for th<- up»x>mUnnat of appraisers, and have already eoh-tact«-d persons concerning the possibility of producing them to appraise the city utility. ’• I realize that It to Imperative that the apointment of the ap- : praisers be made as soon as possible. because of the vital Interest In this matter, and of itji very importance However. 1 have been confronted with a scries of questions, which I sincerely believe tat pertinent to the issues raised by this petition, they are as follows: “1. Who is responsible tor the payment of the appraisers' fees? v-'jL Who fixes the appratoeru* feed? "3. Is it necesasry that the ap- > praisers file a claim with the City Clerk, to be presegtod to the City 1 Council for action upon the appraisers' fee? "4. What is considered just compensation for services rendered In such matters? •*5. Is the law concerning eminent domain applicable in such cases in the following respect: is the appraisement final, or is it subject to judicial review upon filing of exceptions to the appraisers’ ! report, as is provided by law in ' eminent domain proceedings? "6. What is the city’s authority ■ to request that the appraisers file a written copy of their appraisement with the Court? The Statute provides that 'the appraisers shall return their appraisement in writing to the common council of such ■ city.’ I have asked this question I for the reason that the petition as filed on December 30, 1959, requests that the appraisers file their > report with not only the common council but with the judge of the court. If the law be such that the appraisers must file their appraisement with the Court, it could be inferred that the Court has some control over the apralsers concerning review either by the court or by a jury. If it is filed only with the city council, as the law seems to provide, then the court’s duties end with the appointment of the appraisers and has nothing to do with their report or a review thereof. “7. Do you consider the appraisers as being officers of the court or are they officers of the city? Or are, they merely employes of the city under oath, appointed by the court. As a lawyer, you know that the legal rights, privileges, powers and immunities composing what is called substantive law* differ greatly when applied to officers and as also does the power of the Court in both instances. If thev be employes, or officers of the City, the Court would have no jurisdiction or control over them whatsoever. "8. Is it the opinion of the city that toe appraisers must neither reside in the territory served by either utility, nor Be customers of either utility? The petition heretofore filed on December 30, 1959, only requests that the appraisers' be disinterested free? holders of Adams County, Indiana, who are neither taxpayers nor residents of the City of Decatur. The matter of •disinterest’ based upon the legal precedent of the Supreme Court that the appraisers must not be customers of either utility, or reside in the territory served by either utility, is entirely ignored ift the petition heretofore filed. The question of who is competent and who is not competent must be resolved, in order to avoid any further legal complications or inipediments. J : —* V,? "I realize that the law under which the City is proceeding in this matter is the Acts of 1905. and in many respects the act is insufficient, in that its provisions are silent as to the questions heretofore raised. The only provision pertaining to this m?' as to compensation is provided for in Article One, Section 21 of the Constitution of Indiana, which provides ’no man’s particular services shall be demanded without just compensation.’ "I believe that the City should clarify its position in these matters,- m order that I can intelligently and honestly cope with the problem of procuring competent and disinterested free holders of Adams county to make a just and true evaluation of the property herein involved. Since this matter is urgent, and it is my desire to act upon it without further delay, I would appreciate an early reply, that I may proceed expeditiously, constant with the serious problem and question involved.”

Dressen Hints Aaron May Play At Second Base By Vniud Prana Inirrnnl ton* I Manager Chuck Dressen ha* >Mt up a warning to the Mllwsuk*« Brave. -*k> br m their u*» because nobody’s job la safe." Tlx eftervr»ccnt new pilot did tt Tuesday when hr hinted that National League batting champion Hank Aaron might be asked to play around base. Aaron haa played both second and. third at various times in the last five years b»it BlVays has expressed a preference for the outfield. There are three second-base candidates in addition to Red SctMwndicb't ahead of Aaron so there really isn't mnch chance that Hammerin’ Hank will show up at that position in the foreseeable future. The obvious point Dressen I* putting across Is that if he's thinking of switching Aaron he could be thinking of switching anyone. Therefore, goes the supnosed reasoning, the other Braves w[)l report to spring training ready to give 100 per cent effort from the start.
