OSCN Found Document: HOLWAY v. WORLD PUBL. CO.

Interesting: In 1935, the engineer who oversaw the Spavinaw water project for the City of Tulsa (W. R. Holway, MIT '15) was harshly criticized by the World for cost overruns and unjustified expenses. Holway sued the World for libel but was unsuccessful, and the Supreme Court rejected his appeal. The attacks weren't libelous because they didn't falsely impute a crime to Holway, a public official.
