    STATE OF OREGON, Appellant, v. EAST et al, Respondents.
    
    (No. DA 136432, CA 8810)
    571 P2d 195
    James A. Redden, Attorney General, W. Michael Gillette, Solicitor General, and Thomas H. Denney, Assistant Attorney General, Salem, filed the brief for appellant.
    No appearance for respondents.
    Before Schwab, Chief Judge, and Tanzer and Johnson, Judges.
    PER CURIAM.
   PER CURIAM.

The state appeals from an order dismissing a complaint for "failure to state facts,” by which the district court apparently meant failure to allege sufficient facts to state a crime.

In addition to other requisite allegations, the complaint alleged that the defendants did "offer and agree to engage in sexual conduct in return for a fee.”

ORS 167.007(l)(a) provides that a person commits the crime of prostitution if he "offers or agrees to engage in sexual conduct * * * in return for a fee.”

It is elementary that an instrument which charges a crime in the statutory language is generally sufficient to charge a crime. State v. Jim/White, 13 Or App 201, 508 P2d 462 rev den (1973); State v. Miller, 11 Or App 398, 501 P2d 1309 rev den (1972).

Reversed and remanded.
