18 WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, AUGUST 16, 1924 NEWS OF INT EREST IN REAL ESTATE AND BUILDING FIELDS COURT GUARDS TERM REALTOR Enjoins Real Estate Dealer Who Is Not Affiliated With National Body CASE HEARD IN UTAH Virginia Jurist Makes Simi- lar Ruling An injunction against the use of the term "realtor" by a real estate broker not a member of any constit- uent board of the National Association of Real Estate Boards has just been entered in the district court of Weber. county, Utah. The decree was issued July 2 on a complaint of the Ogden, Utah, Real Estate Board and the National associ- ation against Reuben A. Saunders. It follows less than three weeks after the issuing of a similar decree by the circuit court of the city of Norfolk, Virginia, on the joint complaint of the Norfolk Real Estate Board and the National association. The Virginia de- cree declares that the use of the term "realtor" by a real estate dealer not a member of a real estate board be- longing to the National Association" is of such a character as to mislead and deceive the public, and so deprive them of the protection afforded by actual membership in such a board." A similar case filed by the Ogden Real Estate Board against E. W. Can- nady at the same time as the Saun- ders case, but in another division of the court, is set for trial in September. Plan Vigorous Campaign The applications for injunctions are part of a vigorous campaign being carried on by the National Associa- tion with the help of its local member boards. It is the purpose of this cam- paign so to protect the term "realtor," by court action if necessary, that the public may be assured that the man who advertises himself as a "realtor" has met the membership standards of the local member real estate board, is pledged to observe the code of ethics "of National Association in the cor 'duct of his business, and for violation 'of that code is subject to discipline or expulsion by the local board. The Ogden board's case against Saunders was argued from briefs pre- pared by the general counsel of the National Association setting forth the fact that the term "realtor" is a word coined by a member of the National Association and given to it for its ex- clusive use, that the association has a well established trade right in the use of the term, and that the misuse of the term is a fraud and deception upon such members of the general public as employ the services of a "realtor," believing him to be a bona fide member of a constituent board of the National Association and as such pledged to abide by the code of ethics of the National Association in the con- duct of his business. Demurrer Thrown Out The defendant filed a demurrer to the complaint on the ground that the trade name "realtor" has not been copywrighted. After taking this un- der advisement the court overruled the demurrer. The defendant having signified intention to stand on the de- murrer, the court entered a decree per- petually enjoining and restraining the defendant, his clerks, agents and em- ployes, from the use of the term "realtor" upon his office door, win- dows, stationery and advertising matter, and in any way or manner, in connection with the real estate business; or in any other way or man- ner, except by proper application to a lawfully leected member-board in good standing as a constituent mem- ber-board of the National Association of Real Estate Boards. A decree of injunction against use of the term "realtor" without author- ization of the association was issued by the district court in Honnepin county, Minnesota, in 1917. URGE MOTORISTS TO STRESS CIVIC PRIDE Keen interest on the part of the average car owner in the national movement to preserve and respect the countryside has encouraged Charles M. Hayes, president of the Chicago Motor club, to suggest the need for greater civic pride to be displayed by motorists. Other clubs affiliated with the American Automobile association, he says, have already noticed that while many motorists are learning to keep picnic spots clean they seem to feel no restriction when driving in the city. "It has been noticed that motorists toss miscellaneous forms of litter into the streets as they ride along," Mr. Hayes says. "This sort of thing is as unnecessary as it is unsightly. Un- like the pedestrian the motorist can easily carry unwanted articles with him until he finds a suitable place for them. "One of the most unnecessary nuis- ances is the car with a leaking crank- case. Every time such a car crosses the pavement to enter a driveway oil is deposited and tracked around by tires and shoes. Such conditions are often near some of the city's most attractive buildings and points of in- terest."
