Commerce. "Constitutional Aspects of Fed eral Regulation of Business." By James Parker Hall. Journal of Political Economy, v. 20, p. 473 (May). "Through taxation, through its postal powers, through its control over interstate commerce, and particularly through its control over cor porations engaged in interstate commerce.

Corporations. "Entities and Real and Arti ficial Persons." By W. E. Singleton. Journal of Comparative Legislation, N. S. no. 26, p. 291 (May). "With regard to English corporation law it is sometimes supposed that the realism theory and the fiction theory are mutually exclusive. This is not so. It is possible to recognize the convenience apart from law of describing the phenomena of corporations in terms of entities from which the scientist deduces no consequence. It is possible at the same time to believe it to be part of the law of England that in the case of a corporation the existence of an artificial per son is to be assumed and that legal consequences are to be deduced from this assumption." See Trade Unions. "De Facto Corporations." By Charles E. Carpenter. 25 Harvard Law Review 623 (May). "In establishing the de facto doctrine it seems the courts were neither making nor annulling legislative enactments, but following their common practice of adapting the common law to changed conditions." Courts. "The Supreme Court of Minne sota." By George E. Longsdorf. 19 Case and Comment 39 (June).

Criminal Law. "Report of the Committee of the Kansas Bar Association on Crimes and Criminal Procedure. "By William E. Higgins. 3 Journal of Criminal Law and Criminology 12 (May).

"While some improvement of existing condi tions might be effected by legislation, the delays which now occur at all stages of the proceedings can be avoided in one way only, and that is by the prompt and vigorous action of those whose duty it is to administer and execute the law." "The Chicago Police — Report of the Chicago Civil Service Commission." By Messrs. Camp bell, Flynn and Lower. 3 Journal of Criminal Law and Criminology 62 (May). This is an extended and valuable report, which throws much light, particularly, on such subjects as gambling and prostitution. The report finds a connection existing between the police and the criminal classes of Chicago, maintained by a bipartisan political combina tion. A large number of wholesomely pro gressive recommendations are offered. Criminal Procedure. "Criminal Procedure in Canada."

Summarized by Robert Ferrari. 3 Journal of Criminal Law and Criminology 49 (May). "This new justice for minors, up till now, abandoned, abnormal, delinquent, shall be come the justice of tomorrow for all juveniles and adults. This justice is founded upon the firm ground of the doctrines of our school: the study of the individual, in himself, as an organ ism, and in his relation to family and social causes that spurred him on to wrong, full power in the magistrate, who shall be expert in penal justice, and hence, well furnished with psychobiologic and sociological, as well as juridical, cognitions, to adopt various means depending on the diversity of the cases, and execution of the sentence with the view to the social readaptation of the convict. Only then shall we see justice, not armed with the sword, but illumined by science, co-operating to dimish the pain and the misery of human life."
