�FOUNDING, PURPOSE AND LOCATION OF THE LAW SCHOOL

7

Founding, Purpose and Location of the Law School

T

HE LAW SCHOOL was founded in 1859 with a sum of
money given by Thomas Hoyne, when there were only three
similar ~hools west of the Allegheny Mountains. The
first dean was Henry Booth, 1859-1891. For many years the School
was under the joint control of the old University of Chicago and
of Northwestern University, and was known as the Union College
of Law. In 1891, the other University having long ceased to share
in the management and being about to surrender its charter, Northwestern University assumed sole control, and the School has since
been an integral part of the University, and has borne its name.

The course of study is arranged to give a knowledge of the law
that will be indispensable to students wherever they may practice.
Graduates of the School are now located in nearly every state and
territory, as well as in foreign countries. Special courses are offered
for acquiring a knowledge of the law of Illinois.
The Case-study system, or the study of the principles of law as
illustrated in judicial opinions, is followed in most courses of instruction; but each instructor follows his own judgment, in conducting the
classes by lectures, discussions, recitations, written exercises, or in any
way he deems best adapted to the subject. The extensive library of
the School, the Elbert H. Gary Library of Law, lends itself peculiarly
to modern and scientific methods of instruction.
The School is now located in Northwestern University Building at
the corner of Lake and Dearborn Streets, Chicago, which was
acquired and rebuilt in 1901-1902, at a cost of nearly one million
dollars. It is situated near the center of the business district of
Chicago and is of easy access from all residence portions of the city.
The City, State, and Federal Courts are within a few blocks.

In 1925, construction begins of the new home of the Law School,
Levy Mayer Hall, the gift of Mrs. Levy Mayer, in memory of her
husband, eminent at the Chicago Bar. It is expected at the same time
to begin construction of the Elbert H. Gary Law Library Building,
adjacent to Levy Mayer Hall. These edifices will form two of the
group of buildings for the four Chicago professional schools of Law,
Commerce, Medicine, and Dentistry, located on the Alexander
McKinlock, Jr., Memorial Campus, at Lake Shore Drive and Chicago
Avenue, within half a mile of the Chicago River.

Library Facilities

THB ELBERT H. GARY LIBRARY OF LAW
The library of some 6o,ooo volumes represents chiefly the gifts
of the Honorable Elbert H. Gary, LL.B., 1867, LL.D., 1922, of
New York City, and is unusual in its scope. It contains duplicate
sets of the United States Reports, the official Reports of all the States
and Territories, the complete National Reporter System, partly in
duplicate, the Lawyers' Reports Annotated, all of the official Illinois
Reports in triplicate, statutes of all the States in the Union, and a
large collection of digests, periodicals, encyclopedias, and textbooks.
Of the British legal sources, it possesses the complete Statutes, and
substantially all the regular Reports of England, Ireland, and Canada
since the beginning of the Year Books, except those appearing in law
journals.
Besides the library of Modern Anglo-American law, there are
the following special collections:
Modern Continental Law, numbering some 13,000 volumes on
the law of the twenty-three European countries, as contained in
statutes, decisions, journals, and treatises, is equalled by only two or
three other collections in the United States.
International Law, numbering nearly 3,500 volumes, includes a
large quantity of printed material relating to American, British, and
Continental diplomacy, not elsewhere available in the West .
..1 ncient, Oriental, Primitive, and Jl,1 edieval Law includes the
Hindu, Mohammedan, Hebrew, Babylonian, Egyptian, Greek, Chinese, Japanese, and sundry other systems, as well as the medieval
European materials. It numbers 3,000 volumes, and offers unique
facilities for research to students of comparative legal history.
Roman and Civil Law, numbering 2,500 volumes, including the
library of the late Moritz Voigt of Leipzig, Germany, contains many
rare volumes not found in any other American Library.
Ecclesiastical Law, numbering 200 volumes, contains a selection
of the most useful texts, commentaries, and journals.
Jurisprudence and Philosophy of Law, numbering 1,000 volumes,
includes all the important American, English, German, French,
Italian, and Latin texts on this subject.
Criminal Law and Criminology, numbering over 3,000 volumes,
provides the most ample materials, from all countries, for research
in this growing subject.
Anglo-American Legal History includes material relating to
English Historical Legal Literature, sets of Colonial session laws

�REQUIREMENTS FOR ADMISSION

(mostly reprints), rev1s10ns, contemporary and modem treatises on
the laws of the colonies, and other material related to the history of
the development of the common law in England and the United
States. This collection now numbers about 3,500 volumes and contains many rare and valuable historical treatises.
Latin-American Law includes collections of the laws of Mexico,
the Central American, and the South American States, following the
arrangement in the Gary Collections of Modern Continental Law;
that is, a collection of the codes, ordinances, decisions of the Supreme
Court, most important treatises, and leading law journals. The
volumes installed approximate 3,200, and the number is being increased as rapidly as the material can be acquired.
Legal Bibliography, numbering some 600 volumes and pamphlets,
covering all topics and countries.
The extensive library of the Chicago Law Institute, two blocks
distant, exchanges the privileges of consultation for all books not in

the Elbert H. Gary Library.

Law which shall count toward his degrees in both the College of
Liberal Arts and the Law School, so ·as to receive the degree of

University. The work elected cannot exceed one year's work in the
Law School, and each election is subject to the approval of both

Faculties.

another approved college of arts or science may, upon the satisfactory
completion of the first year's work in the Law School, receive from

GENERAL STATEMENT

In preparing the curriculum and requirements for the four-year

course of studies leading to the degree of J.D., the Faculty of Law
has kept in view the following principal objects:
(I) To ensure for every graduate a thorough training in the
use of original sources, and a rigid mental discipline, with a view to
the formation of those habits of independent legal thinking which
ought to be the fundamental possession of every member of the legal
profession ;
(2) To ensure for every graduate a general intelligent acquaintance with the elemental principles in the entire orthodox compass of
the technical subjects of law, and thus to qualify him to do mature
work in the later stages of his study and to equip him to approach
any legal problem without serious gaps in large fields of essential
legal information;
•The symbols here used for the courses refer to the list announced for

the College of Liberal Arts of this University; the University Catalogue will

show the correspondence with courses in other Colleges.

(3) To ensure for every graduate some understan&lt;ling of those
liberal legal subjects which develop breadth of view and qualify him
to render public service as a leader of professional and civic thought;
(4) To attain these results, in point of method, by using the
most approved practices, and in particular by assuring to every student, on the part of the Faculty, from time to time, an individual
valuation of the quality of his work, and a personal attention to his
individual needs and capacities for attaining the expected standards.
The special features of the curriculum and requirements described
below are based directly on one or another of those objectives.

5. EXERCISES IN FORENSIC WRITING, SPEAKING
AND PRACTICE
As a part of the systematic instruction represented in the foregoing curriculum, an effort is made to provide adequate training in
the practical use of legal knowledge and in certain important forms
of legal writing and speaking which help materially to equip the
accomplished lawyer. Some of the various branches of work
directed to this end are as follows:
Pleadings and Other Instruments-The work of the Practice
Court necessarily involves the drafting of the requisite pleadings. In
other courses, particularly in Commercial Paper, Carriers, Insurance,
Transactional Documents, Legal Bibliography, attention is paid to
the forms of instruments in common use.
Conveyancing-In the course on Conveyancing the chief material
consists of a series of selected abstracts of title representing a great
variety of documents and proceedings involving property rights. A
copy of each abstract is purchased by each member of the class, and a
detailed study of matters of form and substance is made from the
conveyancer's point of view, and with regard to the laws of different States. Thorough work in this course ought to equip the
student as a practical conveyancer at the time of his entering upon
his profession. No one may take this course who has not taken the
courses Property I and II.
Trial Practice-The courses on Procedure and Practice give a
systematic and detailed survey of the rules of law. The course on
Evidence includes an auxiliary drill in the use of the rules. The
Practice Court gives the third year student opportunity to become
practically familiar with these rules by the application of them in
litigation managed by himself. The sessions of the Court are held
weekly, on Thursday evenings, for two hours. A faithful attention
to this course ought to give the graduate experience in the use of
legal knowledge that will materially assist him in starting in his profession. The systematic pursuit of such a course under an experienced

appointed m the aggregate received thus far.

It is a worthy plan.

In the first place, this is the city where the greatest law school in
the world ought to be located.

I do not think I ever showed my

wisdom more clearly and completely than I did when, some forty
years ago, I looked over all the cities of the world and decided that
Chicago was the place for a man to get a law education.

I have

I think that this School is

And I have no doubt that with

the efforts of the members you have here, with the favorable location ,
and more than all else with the inextinguishable zeal of a dean who
when he sets his heart on a thing shows what enthusiasm can do to
realize it, we shall attain our goal.

I have no doubt that it will

succeed, even without my planning.

But I want to hasten the con-

summation and therefore want to give you the plan.

It is to have

Dean Wigmore announce himself as a candidate for the presidency
of the United States!

[Applause.]

Just as soon as he does that,

throughout the United States "angels" will offer to finance his
campaign; and after they have brought forward funds to the extent
necessary and our candidate has received them, he will decide to use
the funds to build and endow the Law School!

[Laughter.]

My friends, I am in earnest about this Law School. Jes ting aside,
I have a suggestion to offer.

When this Law School is established

in its new home, I want us to add to what has been taught and have
a Chair of Citizenship.

Did you notice on this little publication here

[referring to the program of the evening] the picture of the first
law school in the United States, at Litchfield, Connecticut, and did
you notice what became of those that attended there?

Let me read:

"The first law school in the United States, as it looks now, at
Litchfield, Conn.

Founded by Judge Tapping Reeve in

continued in 1833.
registered a total of

BRYA N

U nited States Senators; 50 Members of Congress; 40 Jud ges of
higher State Courts; 8 Chief Justices of State Courts;
the United States Supreme Court;

IO

2

Justices of

Governors of States; 5 Mem-

bers of the Cabinet."
Now just take th e number of men who are honored by prominent
positions in public life, and compare the number of those selected for
these high places with the total number of students enrolled , and
then you w ill understand the important part that the Bar plays in
the public life of this nation.

There is no oth er profession from

which people are drawn in such large numbers into public life. And
it is perfectly natural that this should be so; for the lawyer becomes
the spokesman of his group, and no great question is settled in this
country except as the spokesmen of the groups thresh the question
out.

So, if, the law is th e training school for those who enter public

life, surely nowhere else do we need the teaching of citizenship as
we need it in a law school.

If this is to be the greatest law school in

the world, it must deal with this subj ect, so important to American
citizens. Therefore I want to offer th e ; uggestion to Dean Wigmore,
that he consider the addi tio n of thi s chair.

I will promise yo u this,

that if you will add this chair, I will try to give some time to go ing
around and helping yo u en dow the Chair of Citizenship in this big
city.
My friends, the science of government is a noble science, a science that deserves th e attention of the American people and es_necially
of those who are to practice law; and I would like to see this great
Law School-when the ideal is realized, when we see it materially
embod ied in the buildings that are to be provided and in the School
that they have in mind-prepare the yo ung men who go through the
School for this important duty.

I am anxious th at these yo ung men

should have impressed upon them the right kind of ideals, so that
when they go ou t they can put broader shoulders under heavie r loads;

�6

NORTHWESTERN

U

TJVERSITY

and so that whenever they reason through intellectual preparation to
a higher eminence, they will use their broader view and fart her vision
to see approaching dangers and to warn and protect their country
from these dangers.

It seems to me that we need to impress a con-

ception of life on their minds that is entirely different from the
merely pecuniary idea of life.

When we have a great law school

that is connected with an institution of learning that has back of it a
spiritual vision, it seems to me that there is the best possible chance
to have a conception of duty and a moral development entwined with
the training of the mind.
I am here as a reporter of this Republican Convention, and I
find it hard for me to get people to und erstand my disinterestedness.
I am almost afraid to tell these Republicans what to do [Laughter],
for fear they will mistrust my own good intentions in the matter;
but I am anxious to see this Convention write the best platform the
Republican Convention ever wrote, and to nominate the best candidate the Republican party ever nominated.

If they will do that, I

will go out to San Francisco, and I will use what has been done here
to spur my people on and tell them they have got to do well to keep
up with what the Republicans did .

I would rather have a splendid

example, in order that I may cite it as an inspiration , than to have
to point and tell our people that they will have to do better than
they did at C hicago.

[Applause.]

There are several things I am anxious for them to do here.

In the first place, I want them, now that John Barleycorn 1s
dead, not to be afraid of him any more [Applause].

I hope they will

think better of this proposition now that the Supreme Court has
knocked down every objection that has thus far been made to the
amendment of the law.

I want the Republican party to clearly state

that the Republican party endorses the prohibition proposition and
the law, and that this question shall never be reopened in this coun-

I am going out to San Francisco, and there I will be a delegate.

Here I have to act on the outside; there I am on the inside.

I

expect to be on the Resolutions Committee, and I will promise you
that if the wets don't surrender completely, there will be a roll call,
and every delegate will have to stand for the home or the saloon and
then go back and defend himself to his constituents at home.

I don't take any chances now [Laughter].

I want them to do th eir best, and then I want us Democrats to do
our best; and then, whoever wins, the interests of the nation will

be protected.

It seems to me that is the thing, and I am perfectly

willing to give these delegates all the information I have.

I tell

them now, if they put this prohibition planK in their platform, I will
try to get it at San Francisco anyhow, and if they don't we will, and
then we will drive our bad people into the Republican party, which
has enough in there now.
I want them also to know that if they don 't deal with this question of buying nominations, they must deal with it as an issue in
this campaign.

I want to see the Republican party write a platform

providing some way by which a poor man can run for president in .
this country, whether he has any rich friends or not.

The higher

offices should be in the reach of the poor as well as the rich.

While

they are quibbling here as to whether it is better for a man to spend
his own money or somebody else's money, they had better be trying

to devise a way whereby a man can be nominated without spending
any money and by letting the people pick out the man.
When a man has given his life to public affairs, the chances are
that that man will not have any large amount of money when he
finishes his public career; therefore, it seems that the more experience
he has the more completely is he barred from these higher offices, if
nothing but an enormous campaign fund can get the facts before the

If the Republicans don't deal with this question, I notify
them now that we will deal with it at San Francisco, and they will
have to defend ·their plan of financing campaigns before the American people in the campaign. But I would much rather that they
show us a way by which campaigns can be financed or promoted
without enormous funds. If they will give us a good plank I will
take their plank to San Francisco and try to get it endorsed in our
platform, so that we will stand together and represent the conscience
of the nation on that subject.

What you need is to know where to draw the line.

The trouble with so many people is that they don't want anything
said about disputed questions.

But if a question isn't disputed there

is no use to say anything· more about it. The harmonizer wants
nothing said about disputed questions. But what is needed is for
everyone to come up and vote one way or the other, and if that is
forced the chances are they will vote right. But, my friends, I must

I have talked too long

now; but I know th at these things are important.
My friends, it used to distress me when we used to talk of silver
[Laughter].

I used to have good friends, well meaning friends,

and it used to distress them, too, and they were actually afraid to
si ng one of the swee test songs I know of for old men to si ng.

I

think about the sweetest song ever yet composed is "S ilver Threads
Among the Gold," and I have a lot of friends w ho are afraid to
sing or even listen to it for fear it might smack of repudiation
[Laughter].

But now that silver is worth more th an gold , they

can sing it just like we could in those early days.

that to the last end yo u are going to be with the D ean in his resolution to make thi s dream a great reality-a reality of which every
alumnus of the old U nion College of Law .a nd the now Northwestern U ni versity L aw School may and will be proud.
But there are one or two things of importance that I want to
say which do not have to do with the Law School.
I would like to remind you, gentlemen, that

111

this difficult

period we are having no grou p of men stand nearer to American life
than the men w ho are engaged in the practice of law.

American

life, in the near future, in the place of transitory, changing, and
dissolving ideals, upon w hi ch no permanent governmental program
can be built, must have solid and dependable principles.

For this

must we look to no group of men as to the men of the law.

If

America is to learn to think constitutionally, the lawye rs must teach
America to do it.

If I were to try to exp ress in one phrase the

supreme need of the U nited States of America today, I would say
this thing:

To think constitutionally.

For the enormous proportion of American people today are thinking merely in the terms of th eir own desires.

I wo nd er sometimes

if we are thinking as much as we ought to about principles; or are we
too busy thinking about other things?

I wo nd er sometimes if we do

realize that the American Republic has its basis on principles of
individuality and solid arity-the principle of solid arity r epresented
by Alexander Hamilton, and the principle of indi vidual ity represented by Thomas J efferson .

I wonder if we realize the necessity

for that type of thinking which was inaugurated by Hamilton, as

�12

NORTHWESTERN

UNIVERSITY

far as our national life is concerned, which was continued with such
brilliancy by Daniel Webster and under such memorable circumstances by Abraham Lincoln , the necessity of carrying into the minds
of men that they must think constitutionally?
Now, is there any particular significance in the attitude today?
I venture to say it never was more significant than today.
We have certain States in America today where the agricultural
group is more self-conscious than ever before.
farmer has rights.

Now undoubtedly the

Undoubtedly very often those rights have been

ignored.

Undoubtedly the Republic must be mad e safe for the

farmer.

But whenever you have a type or group so self-conscious

it would dominate the whole national life in the terms of its needs,
then you have the exact opposite of the national view.
And we have a labor group in America today which is becoming
increasingly self-conscious.

Undoubtedly labor's right to fair and

ample wages has often been ignored; and undoubtedly America must
be made safe for labor.

But whenever the self-consciousness of the

labor group becomes such that the whole political fabric is threatened
by its desires, then you have a destruction of the national viewpoint.
And we have an employing group.
group has rights.

Undoubtedly the employing

Sometimes these rights have been ignored.

Un-

doubtedly the world and America must be made safe for finance.
But whenever the employing group becomes so insistent and selfconscious that it threatens the whole fabric, then we have a recurrence of the situation in the 6o's.
So today we must have men who are willing to take a national
view as against the men of the exclusively agricultural, labor, or
capitalistic view.
And in reality, the significance of this post-war period is that we
must take our stand, either as members of a group or as members of
the Nation.

The Republican party-this is not a political meeting,

�LYN

HAROLD

HOUGH

13

but inspired by the fervid eloquence of Mr. Bryan, perhaps I may
say-the Republican party has the supreme opportunity of its life
to take a national viewpoint.

This year's decisions in national issues

will mark the parting of the ways.

From this year

1920

the problem

in America will more than ever before be a struggle between the
men who take a national view and those who take a group view.
And I congratulate you on being graduates of this Law School;
because, Mr. Toastmaster, if I know anything about what happens
to a man as a result of the pursuit of the study of law, it is that he
learns how to determine the total result of incidental facts, and
therefore how to handle this dominant problem which is facing the
American people today-how to take a really national view.
In any event, history speaks to a young man when he looks out
on a group of professional men belonging to your tradition-a tradition which brings down to us the scholarly young Alexander Hamilton dreaming of the birth of a republic-the eloquence of a Daniel
Webster-the homely, democratic spirit of that Illinois statesman who
built himself into the fabric of the nation's life so completely, and
whose simple, direct wisdom has gone to the mind and heart of man.
But I see something more, too.

Looking at a group like this,

one is not contented with the past, but dreams of that day when from
our Law School the new Hamiltons, new Websters, new Lincolns,
shall emerge, and when those men who move along the line of lofty
principle rather than temporary expediency shall be given to the land
as the fine gift of noble legal scholarship.

I believe this school has

the kind of stuff to accomplish that thing.
I congratulate you and your Faculty, and I count myself fortunate to have some relation to you as president of this university

WILLIAM H. DIXON, '92,
of Denver, formerly Attorney-G eneral of Colorado

I must confess, after listening to the addresses which have been
made, which were very inspiring and very interesting, that I have
some doubt as to whether this is a banquet or a political meeting
[Laughter].

I can not, of course, speak for Governor Lowden of

Illinois, but before this week is over I shall adm it it a great pleasure
and honor to cast a vote from Colorado for Governor Lowden, of
the class of '87 [Applause].

We lawyers all have our ideals when

we are young in school and starti ng out in the practice.

I am quite

frank to adm it to you that for a number of years, while I lived in
Chicago, Frank Lowden was one of my ideals.
Mr. Bryan has told you in his address that he is perfectly happy
with the way things are going.

Now I have always been a great

admirer of Mr. Bryan as a publicist and a man, but I cannot say
that he has ever convinced me, this evening or any other time, on
some of the most important subjects that occupy his mind .
When the silver issue was raised a number of years ago, in 1896,
we thought it would be a good thing-at least the Democrats thought
it would be-to try Mr. Bryan once more; and so for the third time
they honored him with the nomination for the presidency of the
United States.

Out in Colorado they take more silver out of the

mines than any other State in this Union; and in 1896 (when I was
a young struggling lawyer here in Chicago) the State of Colorado
went for Mr. Bryan.

But never since then have they gone, or even

thought of going, for sixteen to one [Laughter].
I happen to be Chairman of the Committee of the State of
Colorado to aid Dean Wigmore to try to raise this fund for the
program which has been outlined.

It was an honor for me to take

over this matter, although I must confess that when I first heard of
the amount required from the State of Colorado, and discovered we

�RICHARD

only had sixteen alumni out there, I thought that either our fellowalumni in Chicago were miscalculating their share, or that we would
have to increase our fees to our clients-one of the two.
But we are interested.

You know that we out there regard

Northwestern University as one of the great schools of this country.
The difficulty is this-that as we go away to the States where we
make our homes, our associations become more closely identified with
the universities there.

We have in Denver a university founded by

old John Evans, founder of Evanston, and one of the fathers of
Northwestern University, and we feel we must do a great deal for
our own local university.
But we haven't by any means forgotten Northwestern Univer··
sity; and I want to say this-that the name of Dean Wigmore stands
for more in the legal fraternity throughout the United States than
the name of the head of any other law school in the United States.
And I believe this, that a law school, a really big school, ought to
be located in a big city like Chicago.

And so I want to say, for the

Rocky Mountain Division of Northwestern University, that you can
count on us doing our share [Applause].

I spent eight years of my life in yo ur delightful rushing city, but

I agreed , when I told you I would come up here , to make a few

It was Governor Allen who delivered his message to the legislature which resulted finally in the enactment of the law. And, by
the way, we in Kansas have it in mind that if this Republican Convention cannot find a suitable candidate elsewhere, Kansas has two
names which we would like to suggest-Governor Allen and Senator
Capper [Applause] , either of whom would make a splendid president of our nation.
The question that Mr. Gompers did not answer, and the question
that civilization must solve is this:
"When a dispute between capital and labor brings on a strike
affecting th e production or distribution of th e necessities of life,
threatening th e public welfar e and impairing th e public health, has

spite of this great war and the lessons we should have learned, in
spite of the lives wasted because of our utter lack of preparation, in
spite of the huge sums wasted on account of our lack of preparation,
we have gone back again to just where we were fifty years ago. We
are back again to laxity in our national defense, with other nations
ready to spring to arms on any trifle.
We have too much confidence in the theory that we have thousands of trained men ready to go into service on a minute's notice.
I think it is not too much to say that the battles of Lexington and
Bunker Hill, or rather the false presentation of these events that our
school histories hold, were the most unfortunate events that ever
occurred in this country.

The legend of the Minute Man rising in

his wrath and taking down his family musket from over the mantel
shelf and driving out King George's tyrants has wreaked incalculable harm. The myth of Minute Men depreciates the value of long
years of training and preparation in meeting any world power.

We

think because an American is an American he has inherited the
power to fight for his country. So, when the war is over, we go right
back to the legend of Minute Men, which lives right on.
We have indeed been successful in the wars we have waged, but
it was not because of the hard-headed military science of the people.
The real statistics are surprising.

You think of George Wash-

ington with a small force of intrepid patriots winning over the vastly
superior numbers of the British.

The same thing is true of this last war.

Germans opposite us had probably I 50,000-a great many of them too

these officers and soldiers a chance to be trained.
Soldiers must know how to shoot.

That is axiomatic.

Moreover, the fighting man ( who is of course the prime necessity) must have arms and equipment.

Up to the very date of the

Armistice we had no American equipment.

We had an American

type of rifle, it is true, but at the time of the opening of the war
there Was no ammunition or machinery to make ammunition for the
rifles, and they had to be rebored to take ammunition being manufactured for British rifles.

We had no tanks.

The famous Brown-

ing machine gun, like so many other things, arrived after the fighting
was over.

At the date of the Armistice there was not a single

American made cannon on the front, except four Navy guns mounted
on railroad cars.

We had no aeroplanes, and when they did finally

begin to arrive they were unsatisfactory.

The first American built

aeroplane flew across the German lines in the summer of 1918, more
than a year after our war began, and six months after the American
infantry went into the trenches.

It was heartrending.

The Ger-

mans had everything their own way and flew so low that our men
brought them down with rifles.

Our division fought on every front

in France where the American armies fought, and we never saw a
single day that the Germans did not have control of the air over us.
The fact that we with our allies were successful is no justification for our criminal neglect of the future.

We ought to be glad

that we had the French and British trained troops to do the hard
fighting, or there might be a different story to tell.
we may not have allies with us.

The next time

There is going to be a next time,

and if we are as utterly unprepared as in 1917, perhaps our life as a
free nation is over.
Unless you are going to say that you really believe war has gone
as a practical possibility, then some form of compulsory militai·y
training for young men is th e only safety of this land.

I

50 yea rs ago, four days af ter the

battle of Bunker Hill in Boston , a dispatch bearer brought the news
to General George W ashington, at camp near Philadelphia, that
the colonial forces at Bunker Hill had successfully resisted the
British regulars.

General Washington's first question to the bearer,

after he had read the brief dispatch, was this:
fight? "

He was told , Y es.

" Did the militia

"Then, " he said , " I know that the

liberties of my country are safe."
"Will the Alumni fight?"

That was th e question I asked my-

self last year when the Endowment and Building Fund was contemplated.

" Do th ey believe in the cause?

And will th ey stand

back of the School and give their support and service to achieve that
great objective?"

For if they would , I knew that our cause was safe.

I had faith th at they would.

And they have!

I want to say that

now, with grateful conviction .
I have this yea r met and renewed friendship with more alumni
than I had seen in ten years past.

It has been a re velation and a

consolation to find the widespread faith, self-respect, and pride in
th e status and achi evements of our School.
And let me say th at in the ·last analysis the status of the School
depends upon you.

"By their fruits ye shall know them, " is a great

truth, sometimes bitter, sometim es ag reeable to r ealize.

To me it

has been a most agreeable phase of this truth to find that the community gladly knows this School by its products ; for it sees them
among the lead ers of the Bar-the backbone of the profession.

For

a teacher to find that he has had some share in shaping the scores of
fine careers that can be seen on eve ry hand is a discovery th at makes
his daily work seem worth while.

NORTHWESTERN

UNIVERSITY

In this quest for the Endowment and Building Fund, the great
incentive for me, and I hope for you, is that this whole cause is
something far greater than you or I, greater than this School or
this University, as great as the profession and the community.

You

and I, the School and the University, are mere tools-instruments ·
for the betterment of the profession and the welfare of the community.

You and I have the courage to ask for benefactions, be-

cause our objective represents, obviously to all, one vital need in the
welfare of the coming generation; and we are merely the ones that
can directly serve and supply that need.
Now that the rank and file of the Alumni have registered their
support, what remains is to find half a dozen large contributions,
from men who can well afford it, to complete the Fund. Somewhere,
now, today, the men exist who can and will do that.

You and I

must find them.
A colored preacher, at a revival in Arizona, was describing the
Last Day of Judgment.

"And on dat great day, de sheep will be

separated by our Lord from de goats.

And de sheep will go to his

Just then, a cowboy coming in late,

stood up at the back of the hall, and called out, "Mister, I don't
know what yer little game is here tonight, but I'm a two-gun man,
and I always want to be accommodatin'.

If it will accommodate

you any, I'm perfectly willing to be one of them goats!"

So, what we must look for now is a few accommodating benefactors who are perfectly willing to be "one of them goats."

And

we will see that they are safely placed at the right hand of the
School's Judgment Seat, in grateful memory.

FOUNDING,

PURPOSE

LOCATION

Founding, Purpose, and Location of the
Law School

T

HE LAW SCHOOL was founded in 1859 with a sum of
money given by Thomas Hoyne, when there were only three
similar schools west of the Allegheny Mountains. The
first dean was Henry Booth, 1859-1891. For many years the School
was under the joint control of the old University of Chicago and
of Northwestern University, and was known as the Union College
of Law. In 1891, the other University having long ceased to share
in the management and being about to surrender its charter, Northwestern University assumed sole control, and the School has since
been an integral part of the University, and has borne its name.
The course of study is arranged to give a knowledge of the law
that will be indispensable to students wherever they may practice.
Graduates of the School now practice in nearly forty States and
Territories. Special courses are offered for acquiring a knowledge
of the law of Illinois.
The Case-study system, or the study of the principles of law as
illustrated in judicial opinions, is followed; but each instructor employs it according to his own judgment, conducting the classes by
lectures, discussions, recitations, written exercises, or in any way he
deems best adapted to the subject. The extensive library of the
School, the Elbert H. Gary Library of Law, lends itself peculiarly
to this modern and scientific method of instruction.
The School is located in Northwestern University Building at
the corner of Lake and Dearborn Streets, Chicago, which was
acquired and rebuilt in 190 l -1902, at a cost of nearly one million
dollars. It is situated near the center of the business district of
Chicago and is of easy access from all residence portions of the city.
The City, State, and Federal Courts are within a few blocks. The
School occupies 24,000 square feet of space, divided into convenient
lecture-rooms, assembly-rooms, study-rooms, professor's offices, -courtroom, and library. The arrangement of the rooms, opening on an
inner court, ensures seclusion and quiet for study.

Library Facilities
The Elbert H. Gary Library of Law
The library of some 45,000 volumes represents chiefly the gifts
of the Honorable Elbert H. Gary, LL.B., 1867, of New York City,
and is unusual in its scope. It contains duplicate sets of the United
States Reports, the official Reports of all the States and Territories,
the complete National Reporter System, partly in duplicate, the
Lawyers' Reports Annotated, all of the official Illinois Reports in
triplicate, statutes of all the States in the Union, and a large collection of digests, periodicals, encyclopedias, and textbooks. Of the
British legal sources, it possesses the complete Statutes, and substantially all the regular Reports of England, Ireland, and Canada since
the beginning of the Year Books, except those appearing in law
journals.
Besides the library of Modern Anglo-American law, there are
the following special collections:
Modern Continental Law, numbering some 13 ,000 volumes on
the law of the twenty-three European countries, as contained in
statutes, decisions, journals, and treatises, is more comprehensive in
scope than any other collection in the United States.
International Law, numbering nearly 3,000 volumes, includes a
large quantity of printed material relating to American, British, and
Continental diplomacy, not elsewhere available in the West.
Ancient, Oriental, Primitive, and 11-1 edieval Law includes the
Hindu, Mohammedan, Hebrew , Babylonian, Egyptian, Greek, Chinese, Japanese, and sundry other systems, as well as the medieval
European materials. It numbers 3 ,000 volumes, and offers unique
facilities for research to students of comparative legal history.
Roman and Civil Law, numbering 2,500 volumes, including the
library of the late Moritz Voigt of Leipzig, Germany, contains many
rare volumes not found in any other American Library.
Ecclesiastical Law, numbering 200 volumes, contains a selection
of the most useful texts, commentaries, and journals.
Jurisprudence and Philosophy of Law, numbering 1,000 volumes,
includes all the important American, English, German, French,
Italian and Latin texts on this subject.

�8

THE ELBERT H. GARY LIBRARY OF LAW

Criminal Law and Criminology, numbering over 3,000 volumes,
provides the most ample materials, from all countries, for research
in this growing subject.
Anglo-American Legal History includes material relating to
English Historical Legal Literature, sets of Colonial session laWl!
(mostly reprints), revisions, contemporary and modem treatises on
the laws of the colonies, and other material related to the history of
the development of the common law in England and the United
States. This collection now numbers about 2,500 volumes and contains many rare and valuable historical treatises.
Latin-American Law includes collections of the laws of Mexico,
the Central American, and the South American States, following the
arrangement in the Gary Collections of Modern Continental Law;
that is, a collection of the codes, ordinances, decisions of the Supreme
Court, most important .treatises, and leading law journals. Thus far
the volumes installed number 3,000, and will be increased as rapidly
as the material can be acquired.
Legal Bibliography, numbering some 500 volumes and pamphlets,
covering all topics and countries, is one of the most extensive of the
kind in this country.
The extensive library of the Chicago Law Institute, two blocks
distant, exchanges the privileges of consultation for all books not in
the Elbert H. Gary Library.

time with the degree in law by pursuing, with the sanction of the
Faculty of Liberal Arts, advanced work in subjects approved by that
Faculty, and obtaining credit to the amount of twelve semesterhours; and by presenting a thesis on an approved topic. The courses
of study must deal entirely with legal subjects; but courses of legal
study, in order to count for the degree, must be of an advanced
nature, must not otherwise be counted for the degree in law, and
must be pursued under the direction of a member of the Faculty
of the Law School. If the candidate is obtaining his Bachelor's
degree after only six years of University work, the additional credits

IN

ILLINOIS

LAW

B. Courses in Illinois Law
Some twenty short courses on Illinois Law are given every year
by a special corps of lecturers.
THE PURPOSES OF THE COURSES

The purposes of these courses are :
1. . To furnish instruction in the local law of the State, as
distinguished from the general law of Anglo-America.
2. To cultivate a scientific treatment of the State law as an
independent body of law.
3. To furnish the advanced student with an experience in the
critique of judicial precedents emanating from a single court.
The courses are intended for third or fourth year students; alumni,
and graduates who come from schools in other States to the Illinois
bar.
MODE OF CONDUCTING THE COURSES

The lecturers are ( with one exception) all alumni of the school,
having an experience of from three to fifteen years at the bar. In
most instances the lecturer's subject is one in which his special
experience at the bar has given him a particular interest.
The topics selected are usually four under each subject, one for
each hour; each subject receiving four hours; and the topics within
each subject are or may be. changed in part from year to year. In
three subjects ( Pleading, Constitutional Law, and Practice) the
lectures number eight, sixteen, and thirty-two respectively. Two
lectures a week are given in each course; usually two courses are
proceeding at the same time.
The work of the class is done, by studying beforehand a select
list of leading cases. A syllabus list of these cases is distributed
before the opening of each course. Each lecturer employs the mode
of exposition that seems to him best,-a formal lecture, discussion,
etc. An examination is held in each course; and work done is
credited proportionately towards a degree, like work done in other
courses of the curriculum.
During the year I 9 I 8-19 the topics were as follows; the figure
suffixed to the subject-title denotes the number of lectures:

C. Exercises in Forensic Writing, Speaking, and
Practice
As a part of the systematic instruction represented in the foregoing curriculum, an effort is made to· provide adequate training in
the practical use of legal knowledge and in certain important forms
of legal writing and speaking which help materially to equip the
accomplished lawyer. Some of the various branches of work
directed to this end are as follows:
Pleadings and Other Instruments-The courses on Common Law
Pleading, Code Pleading, and Equity Pleading, in addition to the
study of the legal sources, include exercises in the drafting of the
various kinds of pleadings. In Corporations, the class is formed during the second semester into two corporations, which organize, elect
officers, issue stock, enlarge capital, keep books, consolidate, and do
various other acts of corporate business calling for the drafting of
instruments and in other ways familiarizing the student with the

�PRACTICE

23

use of the legal knowledge acquired. In other cour~es, particularly
in Commercial Paper, Carriers, Insurance, attention is paid to the
forms of instruments in common use.

Conveyancing-In the course on Conveyancing the chief material
consists of a series of selected abstracts of title representing a great
variety of documents and proceedings involving property rights. A
copy of each abstract is purchased by each member of the class and a
detailed study of matrers of form and substance is made from the
conveyancer's point of view, and with regard to the laws of different States. Thorough work in this course ought to equip the
student as a practical conveyancer at the time of his entering upon
his profession. No one may take this course who has not taken the
courses Property I and II.
Trial Practice-The courses on Procedure and Practice give a
systematic and detailed survey of the rules of law. The course on
Evidence includes an auxiliary drill in the use of the rules. The
Practice Court gives the third year student opportunity to become
practically familiar with these rules by the application of them in
litigation managed by himself. The sessions of the Co~rt are held
weekly, on Thursday evenings, for two hours. During each session
from one to three cases are tried, with and without a jury; and
other cases are disposed of in various aspects. Between the sessions,
causes are being prepared and advanced from stage to stage by the
student-attorneys in charge. While the proceedings are dispatched
at the hearings by the respective attorneys, all members of the class
are required to attend, to make notes, and to report on the work
done. A faithful attention to this course ought to give the graduate
experience in the use of legal knowledge that will materially assist
him in starting in his profession. The systematic pursuit of such
a course under an experienced instructor affords the student results more thorough, accurate, and extensive than can .be obtained
in the desultory service of a law office during a long period. A copy
of the printed Rules of the Practice Court will be mailed upon
request.
Editorial Work-To edit and digest for the profession the opinion
and record of a decided case is of great value in cultivating the skill
required in preparing briefs and analyzing precedents. Each year
not more than seven second and third-year students of known ability
are appointed Associate Editors of the Illinois Law Review, to digest
manuscript decisions of the Appellate Court.

�24

READING

COURSES

Moot Courts-A moot court is held in the second year, once a
week from November I to May I. The class is divided into two
sections, A and B, meeting on alternate weeks. The work consists
of the preparation and delivery of arguments and opinions of law on
statements of facts assigned beforehand, and is in charge of the Instructor in Forensics, with the assistance of the other members of
the Faculty.
No student is recommended for a degree, except by unanimous
vote of the Faculty, who has not satisfactorily done the work of this
course; but students entering the third-year class from another school
may, by vote of the Faculty, be excused from this course.

Public Debate-The Towle Prize Debate, held annually, is
always upon a legal topic. Students selected in April at the preliminary contest to compete in the second preliminary for the Towle
Prizes for Public Speaking and taking part therein, receive one
semester-hour of credit. Students who have not taken Forensics, or
the equivalent in another school, are not eligible.
Legal Aid Society-After October I students may be assigned
as assistants in the Chicago Legal Aid Society for practical office and
trial work. No student having grade C in more than one course is
eligible for assignment. The hours of work are determined by agreement with the Superintendent of the Society.

D. Reading Courses in Legal Biography, History
and Jurisprudence
OBJECTS OF THESE COURSES

There are two chief benefits to be obtained from the work in
these courses of reading. (I) They help to expand the lawyer's view
in all legal matters, by giving him an acquaintance witli the best
traditions of a great profession and the examples of his predecessors,
and a familiarity with the lawyer's science in its broadest relations.
(2) They help to reach the final stage of independent legal thinking,
by cultivating the habit and skill of mastering the materials without
the artificial stimulus of a daily task under the instructor's oversight.
The student is therefore recommended to cast off frankly the spirit
of merely seeking credit for a measured task. These courses
are measured in units for school purposes; but he is urged not to
confine himself to the minimum amount of reading in each prescribed

�READING

COURSES

25

subject, but to range through the material and to ·read as much as
he can in those selected subjects which most interest him. At the
same time he is expected not to let the freedom of range of choice
injure habits of accuracy, and is therefore held responsible for a
thorough acquaintance with the works presented for examination.
REGULATIONS FOR THE COURSES
I.
For graduation a credit of not less than Grade C, averaged
for all four courses, must have been obtained in Courses A, B 1, B2,
and B3; and for obtaining the required credit in any of the remaining three subjects corresponding lecture courses may be substituted.

2. A credit of one tenn-hour will be given in each one of the
above prescribed courses of reading, as well as in the optional
Courses BA1, BA2, BA3, CA1, and CA2.
3. An examination will be held at the beginning of the first
term of the year and at other times during th e year, in the
B and C courses; but notice must be filed in the Secretary's office,
at least sixty days before the announced date of examination, by
each student intending to take it. Details as to the arrangements
will be duly posted on the Bulletin Board.
Students are urged to do the required reading during the summer
vacation.
A student may take any of these examinations at any time after
entering the School, no matter to what class he belongs. ·
4. A student entering with advanced standing n~ed not take
Course A.

-

5. A student who has already obtained credit at a college or law
school for work equivalent to any of the B or C courses will be
given credit for that subject as required in this School; but may
also obtain credit by doing the work of any remaining courses not
taken elsewhere.
6. No lectures are given in any of the B or BA courses; the
work is done by private study. But the courses are under the
general supervision of the examiner, who will open them by a
general discourse on the subject and materials, and will give any
desired advice on the materials of study.
7. The credit in any of the Courses C will count as one of the
required ten term-hours of the senior year.

COURSES

8. Students are recommended to own the books named if they

�FOUNDING, PURPOSE AND LOCATION

IV

Founding, Purpose, and Location of the
Law School

T

HE LAW SCHOOL was founded in 1859 with a sum of
money given by Thomas Hoyne, when there were only three
similar schools west of the Allegheny Mountains. The
first dean was Henry Booth, 1859-1891. For many years the School
was under the joint control of the old University of Chicago and
of Northwestern University, and was known as the Union College
of Law. In 1891, the other University having long ceased to share
in the management and being about to surrender its charter, Northwestern University assumed sole control, and the School has since
been an integral part of the University, and has borne its name.
The course of study is arranged to give a knowledge of the law
that will be indispensable to students wherever they may practice.
Graduates of the School now practice ifi nearly forty States and
Territories. Special courses are offered for acquiring a knowledge
of the law of Illinois.
The Case-study system, or the study of the principles of law as
illustrated in judicial opinions, is followed; but each instructor employs it according to his own judgment, conducting the classes by
lectures, discussions, recitations, written exercises, or in any way he
deems best adapted to the subject. The extensive library of the
School, the Elbert H. Gary Library of Law, lends itself peculiarly
to this modern and scientific method of instruction.
The School is located in Northwestern University Building at
the corner of Lake and Dearborn Streets, Chicago, which was
acquired and rebuilt in 1901-1902, at a cost of nearly one million
dollars. It is situated near the center of the business district of
Chicago and is of easy access from all residence portions of the city.
The City, State, and Federal Courts are within a few blocks. The
School occupies 24,000 square feet of space, divided into convenient
lecture-rooms, assembly-rooms, study-rooms, professor's offices, courtroom, and library. The arrangement of the rooms, opening on an
inner court, ensures seclusion and quiet for study.

Library Facilities
THE ELBERT H. GARY LIBRARY

OF

LAW

The library of some 45,000 volumes represents chiefly the gifts
of the Honorable Elbert H. Gary, LL.B., 1867, of New York City,
and is unusual in its scope. It contains duplicate sets of the United
States Reports, the official Reports of all the States and Territories,
the complete National Reporter System, partly in duplicate, the
Lawyers' Reports Annotated, all of the official Illinois Reports in
triplicate, statutes of all the States in the Union, and a large coll~ction of digests, periodicals, encyclopedias, and textbooks. Of the
British legal sources, it possesses the complete Statutes, and substantially all the regular Reports of England, Ireland, and Canada since
the beginning of the Year Books, except those appearing in law
journals.
Besides the library of Modern Anglo-American law, there are
the following special collections:

Modern Continental Law, numbering some 13,000 volumes on
the law of the twenty-three European countries, as contained in
statutes, decisions, journals, and treatises, is more comprehensive in
scope than any other collection in the United States.
International Law, numbering nearly 3,000 volumes, includes a
large quantity of printed material relating to American, British, and
Continental diplomacy, not elsewhere available in the West.
Ancient, Oriental, Primitive, and Medieval Law includes the
Hindu, Mohammedan, Hebrew, Babylonian, Egyptian, Greek, Chinese, Japanese, and sundry other systems, as well as the medieval
European materials. It numbers 3,000 volumes, and offers unique
facilities for research to students of comparative legal history.
Roman and Civil Law, numbering 2,500 volumes, including the
library of the late Moritz Voigt of Leipzig, Germany, contains many
rare volumes not found in any other American Library.
Ecclesiastical Law, nun1bering 200 volumes, contains a selection
of the most useful texts, commentaries, and journals.

�17

THE ELBERT H. GARY LIBRARY

Jurisprudence and Philosophy of Law, numbering 1,000 volumes,
includes all the important American, English, German, French,
Italian and Latin texts on this subject.
Criminal Law and C1·iminology, numbering over 3,000 volumes,
provides the most ample materials, from all countries, for research
in this growing subject.
Anglo-American Legal History includes material relating to
English Historical Legal Literature, sets of Colonial session laws
(mostly reprints), revisions, contemporary and modern treatises on
the laws of the colonies, and other material related to the history of
the development of the common law in England and the United
States. This collection now numbers about 2,500 volumes and contains many rare and valuable historical treatises.

-

Latin-American Law includes collections of the laws of Mexico,
the Central American, and the South American States, following the
arrangement in the Gary Collections of Modern Continental Law;
that is, a collection of the codes, ordinances, decisions of the Supreme
Court, most important treatises, and leading law journals. Thus far
the volumes installed number 3,000, and will be increased as rapidly
as the material can be acquired.
L egal Bibliography, numbering some 500 volumes and pamphlets,
covering all topics and countries, is one of the most extensive of the
kind in this country.

The extensive library of the Chicago Law Institute, two blocks
distant, exchanges the privileges of consultation for all books not in
the Elbert H. Gary Library.

of the usual requirements.
3. They must take any course needed to make up a deficiency
in such requirement.

of Bachelor of Arts or Sciences, but only so far as such work may
coincide with the regular College program for such degrees.

of the special programs set forth below:
Two kinds of programs are here given; one for students who
enter to take one or two years of College courses, not as candidates
for a degree of Bachelor of Arts or Sciences, but solely as a preparation for entering the Law School; the other for students who are

Courses in Illinois Law
Some twenty short courses on Illinois Law are given every year
by a special corps of lecturers.
THE PURPOSES OF THE COURSES

The purposes of these courses are:
I. To furnish instruction in the local law of the State, as
distinguished from the general law of Anglo-America.
2. To cultivate a scientific treatment of the State law as an
independent body of law.
3. To furnish the advanced student with an experience in the
critique of judicial precedents emanating from a single court.

COURSES IN ILLINOIS LAW

The courses are intended for third-year students, alumni, and
graduates who come from schools in other States to the Illinois bar.
MoDE oF CONDUCTING THE CouR~Es

The lecturers are '(with one exception) all alumni of the school,
having an experience of from three to fifteen years at the bar. In
most instances the lecturer's subject is one in which his special
experience at the bar has given him a particular interest.
The topics selected are usually fo1,1r under each subject, one for
each hour; each subject receiving four hours; and the topics within
each subject are or may be changed in part from year to year. In
three subjects ( Pleading, Constitutional Law, and Practice) the
lectures number eight, sixteen, and thirty-two respectively. Two
lectures a week are given in each course; usually two courses are
proceeding at the same time.
The work of the class is done by studying beforehand a select
list of leading cases. A syllabus list of these cases is distributed
before the opening of each course. Each lecturer employs the mode
of exposition that seems to him best,-a formal lecture, discussion,
etc. An examination is held in each course; and work done is
credited proportionately towards a degree, like work done in other
courses of the curriculum.
During the year 1917-18 the topics were as follows; the figure
suffixed to the subject-title denotes the number of lectures:
I.

General Practice (32).

All topics.

II. Municipal Corporations (4). I. Special Assessment and
Special Taxation (including the "Michigan Blvd. Link" Ordinance). 2. Public Improvements and Power of Eminent Domain.
3. Public Service Companies and Franchises in their Relation to
Municipal Corporations. 4. Financial Power of Municipal Corporations ( including Citizens' and Taxpayers' Suits).

Exercises in Forensic Writing, Speaking,
and Practice
As a part of the systematic instruction represented in the foregoing curriculum, an effort is made to provide adequate training in
the practical use of legal knowledge and in certain important forms
of legal writing and speaking which help materially to equip the
accomplished lawyer. Some of the various branches of work
directed to this end are as follows:

Pleadings and Other Instruments-The courses on Common Law
Pleading, Code Pleading, and Equity Pleading, in addition to the

�38

PRACTICE

study of the legal sources, include exercises in the drafting of the
various kinds of pleadings. In Corporations, the class is formed during the second semester into two corporations, which organize, elect
officers, issue stock, enlarge capital, keep books, consolidate, and do
various other acts of corporate business calling for the drafting of
instruments and in other ways familiarizing the student with the
use of the legal knowledge acquired. In other courses, particularly
in Commercial Paper, Carriers, Insurance, attention is paid to the
forms of instruments in common use.
Conveyancing-In the course on Conveyancing the chief material
consists of a series of selected abstracts of title representing a great
variety of documents and proceedings involving property rights. A
copy o/ each abstract is purchased by each member of the class and a
detailed _study of matters of form and substance is made from the
conveyancer's point of view, and with regard to the laws of different States. Thorough work in this course ought to equip the
student as a practical conveyancer at the time of his entering upon
his profession. No one may take this course who has not taken the
courses Property I and II.
Trial Practice-The courses on Procedure ahd Practice give a
systematic and detailed survey of the rules of law. The course on
Evidence includes an auxiliary drill in the use of the rules. The
Practice Court gives the third year student opportunity to become
practically familiar with these rules by the application of them in
litigation managed by himself. The sessions of the Court are held
weekly, on Thursday evenings, for two hours. Buring each session
from one to three cases are tried, with and without a jury; and
other cases are disposed of in various aspects. Between the sessions,
causes are being prepared and advanced from stage to stage by the
student-attorneys in charge. While the proceedings are dispatched
at the hearings by the respective attorneys, all members of the class
are required to attend, to make notes, and to report on the work
done. A faithful attention to this course ought to give the graduate
experience in the use of legal knowledge that will materially assist
him in starting in his profession. The systematic pursuit of such
a course under an experienced instructor affords the student results more thorough, accurate, and extensive than can be obtained°
in the desultory service of a law office during a long period. A copy
of the printed Rules of the Practice Court will be mailed upon
request.

�READING COURSES

39

Editorial Work-To edit and digest for the profession the opinion
and record of a decided case is of great value in cultivating the skill
required in preparing briefs and analyzing precedents. Each year
not more than seven second and third-year students of known ability
are appointed Associate Editors of the Illinois Law Review, to digest
manuscript decisions of the Appellate Court.
Moot Courts-A moot court is held in the second year, once a
week from November 1 to May I. The class is divided into two
sections,· A and B, meeting on alternate weeks. The wqrk consists
of the preparation and delivery of arguments and opinions of law on
statements of facts assigned beforehand, and is in charge of the Instructor in Forensics, with the assistance of the other members of
the Faculty.
No student is recommended for a degree, except by unanimous
vote of the Faculty, who has not satisfactorily done the work of this
course; but students entering the third-year class from another school
may, by vote of the Faculty, be excused from this course.
Public Debate-The Towle Prize Debate, held annually, is
always upon a legal topic. Students selected in April at the preliminary contest to compete in the second preliminary for the Towle
Prizes for Public Speaking and taking part therein, receive one
semester-hour of credit. Students who have not taken Forensics, or
the equivalent in another school, are not eligible.
Legal Aid Society-After October I students may be assigned
as assistants in the Chicago Legal Aid Society in the University
Building for practical office and trial work. No student having
grade C in more than one course is eligible for assignment. The
hours of work are determined by agreement with the Superintendent of the Society.

Reading Courses in Legal .Biography,
History and Jurisprudence
OBJECTS OF THESE COURSES

There are two chief bene.fits to be obtained from the work in
these courses of reading. ( 1) They help to expand the lawyer's view
in all legal matters, by giving him an acquaintance with the best
traditions of a great profession and the examples of his predecessors,
and a familiarity with the lawyer's science in its broadest relations.
( 2) They help to reach the final stage of independent legal thinking,
by cultivating the habit and skill of mastering the materials without

�40

READING COURSES

the artificial stimulus of a daily task under the instructor's oversight.
The . student is therefore recommended to cast off frankly the spirit
of merely seeking credit fot a measured task. These courses
are measured in units for school purposes; but he is urged not to
confine himself to the minimum amount of reading in each prescribed
subject, but to range through the material and to read as much as
he can in those selected subjects which most interest him. At the
same time he is ·expected not to let the freedom of range of choice
injure habits of accuracy, and is therefore held responsible for a
thorough acquaintance with the works presented for examination.
REGULATIONS FOR THE COURSES
I.
For graduation the regulations for Required Courses, on
page 20, apply here as follows: ( r) A credit of not less than
Grade C, averaged for all five courses, must have been obtained in
Courses A, Bi, B2, and B3; (2) and for obtaining the required
credit in any two of the remaining five subjects enumerated on page
21 (par. 4), any of the reading courses Cr, C2, or C3 may be substituted for the corresponding lecture courses.

2. A credit of one term hour will be given in each one of the
above prescribed courses of reading, as well as in the optional
Courses BAr, BA2, BA3, CAr, and CA2.
3. An examination will be held at the beginning of the first
term of the year and at other times during the first term, in the
B and C courses; but notice must be filed in the ·Secretary's office,
at least sixty days before the announced date of examination, by
each student intending to take it. Details as to the arrangements
will be duly posted on the Bulletin Board.
Students are urged to do the required reading during the summer
vacation.
A student may take any of these examinations at any time after
entering the School, no matter to what class he belongs.
4. A student entering with advanced standing need not take
Course A.
5. A student who has already obtained credit at a college or law
school for work equivalent to any of the B or C courses will be
given credit for that subject as required in this School; but may
also obtain credit by doing the work of any remaining courses not
taken elsewhere.

�READING COURSES

41

6. No lectures are given in any of ·the B or BA courses; the
work is done by private study. But the courses are under the
general · supervision of the examiner, who will open them by a
general discourse on the subject and materials, and will give any
desired advice on the materials of study.
7. The credit in any of the Courses C will count as one of the
required ten term-hours of the third year.

can afford to purchase · them, but the Library provides a sufficient
number of copies for use; except that the student is expected to
provide his own personal copy of ( 1) all books in Course A, ( 2)
the two works in Group 1 of Course B3.

Courses of Summer Study
A course of summer work is provided, open to those who have
studied law for one or two years in this or another law school.
The summer courses are recommended to ambitious and industrious students, who may not be obliged to occupy themselves entirely
at other work, for three main reasons:
I. They put the student more at liberty to take, during the
regular school year, a larger n_umber of those courses which can best
be pursued only in the class room under the lectures of an instructor,
and which might otherwise have to be omitted for lack of time.
2.
They enlarge his learning as a lawyer in a number of subjects
which, though commonly not termed "practical," are becoming more
and more necessary for the lawyer who expects to take part in the
progressive movements of the day and the constructive legislation o±
the future.

3. They furnish him with the groundwork for continuing his
private studies on broader lines after graduation, and for avoiding
that degeneration into a mere mechanical practitioner which in after
years is for lawyers· a most serious danger in both its civic and its
personal. aspects.
The summer courses are not recommended merely as a method of
shortening the time required for graduation or for admission to the

�46

SUMMER STUDY

bar, first, because to shorten that time is inadvisable, both for the
individual and for the profession; next, because the rules of the Illinois State Board of Bar Examiners require in any case three full
years of study; and, further, because the rules of the Association of
American Law Schools require three full years of study.
But the credits obtained may be reckoned on the number of credits
sufficient for graduation in this School, subject to all other rules
applicable.
The courses are reading courses. No lectures are given. The
student reads assigned books. Credit is obtained by passing an
examination, or by presenting a report or essay, at the opening of
the fall term in October. The amount of credit obtainable is stated.
in term hours after each course. A maximum of 15 term hours is
here provided for.
The courses are selected from those named in the regular curriculum. For details as to books to be read, the instructor in each
course is to be consulted.
The School Library is open for study during the summer, and all
necessary books may be there consulted. The instructors will advise
with the student at any time on application.

EXTRACTS FROM LETTERS FROM BAR ASSOCIATION
OFFICERS.
"I am. glad you have taken this stand. The time has come when
we must make the law a profession and not a mere business or calling. Our worst fight is with the Bar itself. I have been on the Board,
or connected with the Board, conducting the examinations for aC,mission to the Bar in this State for fifteen years, and we have, until
recently, had a continual fight with the members of the Supreme Court.
Happily, however, they have all acquiesced with the Board's ruling.
But we still have trouble with the Bar. Many prominent members
of the Bar, and who are law school men too, get the wrong viewpoint, and that was the trouble with our judges for a long time. They
were of different point of view than Mr. Root. That theory is to
admit them, and if they are no good the plJlblic will not employ them.
They were not able to see that it is the public that suffers because of
an inefficient Bar. .
"I am not a law school man. But from my experience in the dealings with those seeking admission to the Bar, I .would provide, had
I the right to make the rule, that only those who are graduates• of
law schools of high standing could be admitted to the Bar. Of course
we have some excellent lawyers who never saw college and did not
even finish high school; some of the best we have, as a matter of
fact; nevertheless, they are educated men; somewhat on the plan qn
which Lincoln was educated. But those are the exceptions. My
observation is that a good general education is even more requisite
than a good legal education; for under the present system most of
the law is learned by the lawyer after he is admitted to the Bar. But
T often make the statement that any one can look about him in the

,allege tramed are successes. The other one-fifth would be failures in
any event. Of those who are not college trained four-fifths are fail.ures. The other one-fifth, like Lincoln, would surmount any obstacle."
(Member of Washington State Bar Association).
"Personally, I am heartily in favor of action of this character,
and I trust that it will, at a comparatively early date, be taken by
all of the law schools in the United States, though I presume this is
almost too much to expect."
(Member of S~uth Dakota State Bar Association).
"I 1believe it is the .general sentiment and opinion of a large number, perhaps not a majority, of the members of our State Bar Association that the requirements for preliminary legal studies should be
made as full and comprehensive as possible. ' This is a matter upon
which you and others holding positions similar to yours, certainly have
more general information than the average practitioner. I think that
action along these lines will be more likely to be taken by our State Bar
Associations if the Deans of our law colleges would place before the
Chairmen of the several Committees on Legal Education such information as they may possess, in order that the Chairmen and members of
these Committees may become better informed on the subject. The
great majority of us have our ideas on the subject, but we have no
specific information and not much general information on the St]bject.
We need educating on the subject."
( Member of the Committee on Legal Education
of the American Bar Association).
"I congratulate you upon taking up this important step so
promptly and hope that the other schools will concur in and follow
your action and so conform to the resolution recently adopted by the
American Bar Association."
(Member of .New York State Bar Association).
"I think the step you have taken a good one, and in line with
the expression not only of the American Bar Association, but many
of the State associations, and it will tend to meet an evil that is recognized by all of us."

however can be taken by our Board of law examiners without the
sanction of the legislature and the supreme court. I shall have a
conference with some of the members of the court in the 'near future."
"I commend you and your school for your stand in this regard,
and I hope your example will be followed 'by other leading universities

"I am, as you know, heartily in accord with the general principle
of extending the law school course to four years. * * ·,;, However, I feel it would be unwise to bring -b efore the Committee on Legal
Education of our Bar Association; which is composed of a member
from each of our counties, many of whom are not in sympathy with
law school education, any concrete proposition for a four-year law
school course. I believe that more good can be done this year by
obtaining the endorsement of our Bar Association to the resolution
passed 'by the Section on Legal Education of the American Bar Association. I hope that I will 'be able to keep in touch with the practical
workings of your proposed courses; and that at some near future date
our Committee here will endorse it or some similar four-year law
school course."

.·· ''.' "I , am glad your school has, ta:kert this forward step; and I trust
thatt evei-y Amevican law school will . do the same thing; There are
about four tin'res· as 'many lawyers as are needed; and a!bout ten times
as many as· are qu·wlified to practice law. Could the public be made
to realize ·the a·bsolute necessity for a higher standard of preparation
for the bar, it would work a great good for the. whole country. I
trust that uniform State laws may be adopted in every State in the
Union, fixing the standard 'as high, or higher, as will be required at
the opening of your school in 1918. . There is no doubt about the
popular response, and were the attention of the various St~te Legislatures .called to the real status of _legal education in this country, the
consequent loss to litigants, the ttouble stirred up' by am.bulance chasing devices to make aJiving where none ought tobe made, r. have no
doi.1bt . that a proper standard wquld be adopted. The people want
good laws, and they want capaible lawyers, but'the difficulty is that a
gang of politicians surrounds .· fhe Legislatures and immediately go
to decrying the efforts of the rich to prevent the poor from attaining
eminence. The truth is tliaCa poor-boy of girl has as a general rule
a better show than fhe boy with wealth, and the poor boy who ·wants
to go ·through school can do so, although the ·task may be ' harp, But
even if he cannot, his inability to do so is no reason for allowing an
unprepared applicant to reach the bar. The 'ttouble is that lawyers
move too slow; they decide they cannot .- do anything; but fhe truth is
.the duty is theirs and the .power is in their hands to properly enlighten
the commuµity of its, real needs. High costs of farm p,roduc,ts should
be a clear indication that the thousands of acres of vacant grounds in
the Uµited $tates might be cultivated · to good advantage by a con·
siderable percentage 'o f th~ J1_4,000_o,f the American Bar."

FROM JUDGES.
"Up to the present time I have not ibeen satisfied t\1a_t the fobryear law- cbtirse was desirable, inclining to ·a three-year course, with
higher requirements_ for admission to the study of the law. This is
about as much as we can stand in the East at present.
Perhaps i:nore ·can be induced to remain in our law schools for an
M. L. course, the advantage of this being ' self-evident: Personally
I'ldepl'ore the permission extended to students to make their last year's
study for a B. A. degree the first year's study of the law. The reason
for this, to ,lessen the age ·at which students may begin the practice,
will militate aga:inst ·the adoption of the four-year ·course.
- ·This opinion expressed of the fot!r-year course 'is, of' course, subject to modification and change, and your experience with this change
will be carefully noted. I have not had the opportunity of seeing my

"Your. change, I think, comes at the right time. I am told that
the profession is more than ever crowded and that the best interests

that your influence .in this direction will be felt qnd your example

"I am glad to see that your great University is doing so much
to have future members of the Bar educationally qualified. Our
Legislature has prescribed a course of either an Examining Board or
the Supreme Court, and I think prolonged time of study. Vve may
be aale to do more in that direction at the next session."
( Member of Louisiana State Board of Law Examiners).
"I am a member of the State Board of Bar Examiners and keenly
interested in the matter specified in your letter. I fully realize the
immediate necessity for additional requirements for admission to the
bar of this State, but have no reason to believe that we can obtain at
the hands of the Legislature at its January ( 1917) session the fouryear rule. I hope to obtain, at least, some improvement as to the
requirements for admission to the bar of this State. * * * * *
The argument we hear on every -hand is that it matters little where a
candidate for admission by examination may have received his knowledge of the law, if he demonstrates sufficient knowledge of the law to
successfully pass our examinations. Again, it is said that one who
possesses sufficient knowledge of the law to successfully pass our ·
examinations, must, of necessity, possess a fundamental education on
account of such fact. Both conclusions are erroneous in my judgment."

FROM TEACHERS OF LAW.
" Since my inability to attend the meeting of the Association _o f
American Law Schools because of the conflict in date with our State
Bar Association meeting prevents my extending to you and to your
Faculty, personally, my congratulations on your increased entrance
.requirements and particularly on your establishment of the four-year
law course, I now send them by letter. I am most heartily in accord
with the idea that four years of law study should be required for
admission to the lbar, and that standard law schools should maintain
a four-year course."
· "I have been greatly interested by the announcement of your new
requirements for admission to the law school. I believe that three
years of college and four of law represent the ideal ratio. I am in
hopes that sometime we can induce the colleges and universities to
condense their undergraduate courses into three years and give a
degree at the end of that time."
"We hasten to advise that we are heartily in sympathy with the
step which you have taken in announcing a four-year required course.
I am trying to have the law of Nebraska changed in accordance with
the recomrpendations of the Committee on Legal ·Education of the
American Bar Association, so as to require four years of study for
admi ssion to the bar, at least three of which must have been in a law
·school. This is, of course, a radical step and we may not succeed, but
we feel that office study should be abolished, that students should be
trained only in law schools, and that the course of preparation should
'
cover four years."

dents. From my own experience I find that the assistance which was
given me while I was with the Legal Aid Society has been ah:nost
invalua'ble; for I learned many little detail matters which have .helped
me with the smaller cases, the younger lawyer always secures. While
such work is very good for immediate use after admission to the
Bar, I am finding more and more as I proceed in the practice of law
that the questions which come up for solution are not those which
would likely arise in a moot trial, the Legal Aid work, or even during the short time spent in the review of any one subject, ibut they
a-re questions which can be solv.ed only by plain reasoning combined
with a fair knowledge of the substantive law on the particular subject
and allied subjects involved. The work which you have placed in
this new curriculum seems to me to make an ideal working basis."

FRANK J. R: MITCi-IELL, '99.'
"I am gratified to learn of the raised standards of admission to
and graduation from our Law School. It is fitting that this great
institution should lead rather than follow in the movement to elevate

ultimately this 1s going to greatly add to the fame" of Northwestern

"Today we are in rec-eipt of a letter from you informing us
that our Alma Mater, for whom we have the deepest affection, has
decided to inaugurate a four-year course for all students entering the

college course for admission to the Law School. We have both long .
hoped that the day was not far distant when such changes would :be
made in the rules pertaining to admission ·to the Law School, as well
as that the legal course would be made a four-year, instead of a threeyear course, and so it is with the greatest and deepest feeling of satisfaction that we welcome the glad tidings.

proval of the action of the Faculty in this matter, and to be sure,

"We· are indeed delighted with the wonderful news, and truly
consider this much needed arid long anticipated step, as the crowning
event in the history of the Law School."
ELMER L. ANDERSON, '15,
JUNIUS C:::. SCOFIELD, '15,
( Anderson &amp; Scofield).
"Allow me to add my humble congratulations to tlie many you
have doubtless already received. There is no doubt that the Faculty
of the School is as fine as any in the country, and the opportunities
for a sound legal education as great; but there is also no doubt that,
under the old system, the number of irresponsible lads, who were
inclined to look upon the legal profession more as a lucrative business
than as a calling, was inclined to increase rather than decrease. To
put it bluntly, it was too easy to get by under the old requirements.
I do not mean to say that the present changes are a cure-all; but, at
least, they will bring to the school men who are old enough to have
done some thinking for themselves; equipped, to a certain extent '!t
least, with an education which would tend to broaden their outlook,
and give them a few ideals. upon which to build."
. JOHN R, WINTERBOTHAM, '15,
( with E. A. Burgess).
"I was immensely pleased to receive your letter announcement
saying an advance in the requirements for entrance to the law ·department of the Northwestern ·University and an extension of the course
to four years had been made. Notwithstanding the recent law put
through in Massachusetts allowing those who had pursued a two-year
course in law to take the bar examination, I am of the opinion that
higher requirements for the study of law and longer courses will not
mitigate against the poor and deserving class but will really help them
by requiring greater effort and consequently broader knowledge, and
quicker and more lasting success in post school life. I mention the
"poor but deserving" class because to all other classes the require. ment and length of course has no pecuniary significance, and is consequently of little importance to them.
'
"For my own part, I had two years' college credit and then four
and a half years' law; and after all I felt rather incompetent when
I got into practice. The raising of the Northwestern standard
naturally makes me feel a little prouder of my degree in that school."

VERNON R. LouCKS, '10.
"I have your letter of the 20th in regard to the new departure in
connection with the Law Department of the University. I am very
glad to see this. I do think that the Bar is having brought to it a
Very large number of men totally unfit on account of their early education, their legal education, and their moral perception, and especially
is this the case among the foreign population."
E. C. FERGUSON, '80.
"I do not believe that you can get the standard too high, because
the level should at least be paramount to all professions."
ToM H. BucKTHORPE, '99.
"As to the point about securing desiraible and properly qualified
students from the colleges and universities, I wish to say that I think
many would gladly apply to your Law School if their attention were
drawn to the fact that there is such a good school in Chicago. As
you know, many law students, after graduation from a distant college,
would like to study law near home, not only for the matter of expense
saving, but many other obvious reasons, as perhaps one's father may
be a lawyer, or he may have a prosperous business here."
"In this connection, I will say as a matter of p~rsonal experience,
that when I was in my last year at Princeton University, I felt I
wanted to ask ·some one qualified to know about law schools here,
and I asked President Wilson, then professor there, and he recommended Northwestern."__________ H. B. BOGUE, '95.
"I cannot concur in the opinion of thos~ who advocate additional
requirements for admission and a prolonged course bf study such as
is contemplated. First, because such requirements are not necessary
to make good lawyers. I know a number of lawyers in Chicago who
are first class but who have not had anywhere near the preliminary
education or the training in law required by the new standards. The
inan who graduated at the head of my class in Northwestern and who
had the best scholarship record, as I understand it, was a man with
only a high school education. Second, because added restrictions and
burdens will tend to keep men out of law school, and make it more
difficult to comply with your request to the alumni to pledge them·
selves to secure students.
"Nor can I agree that the so-called consequences enumerated by
Mr. Root in his ibrief are due to inadequate education and training of
lawyers. In fact. most of the so_-called consequences are not the result
of ignorance or ineffi.ciency on the part of lawyers, but the result of
deliberate planning to 'muss up' procedure, block the progress of

cases, and secure delay for clients, and in doing this lawyers act deliberately and with a purpose in view and not from ignorance. It is
a matter then of professional ethics rather than professional education and training.
"My experience and belief is that additional requirements in preliminary education in the arts and sciences, or additional training in
the technic and rules of law, will not instill into a lawyer that moral
or ethical sense which is one of the requirements necessary to abolish
the so-called consequences and the retardation of progress in the
courts referred to ·b y Mr. Root. Some of the ·best educated and the
best traihed men in the profession are the most adept in clogging
progress and interposing delays referred to. Many of the evils condemned by Mr. Root could be remedied by the legislature and the
courts themselve,; by simplifying the practice and procedure and conducting court business in a businesslike manner, instead of crawling
along in a rut which comes down to us from medieval times.
"I am, however, a loyal alumnus of the school, and while I have
my personal opinion concerning the step taken, I shall defer to the
decision of those in authority in the school and shall work heartily and
actively to secure at least one student eligible under the new rules.
I feel more and more my debt to old Northwestern."

HOMER C. DAWSON, '12,

no doubt that now that you have showed the way, other law schools
will follow. I congratulate you most heartily on this pioneer and
progressive move and wish it every possible success."

�Courses in Jurisprudence, Legislation, Legal History, and
International Law
The Faculty of Law of Northwestern University announces, as
a part of its four-year course, beginning in 1918, the following group
of lecture courses ·suitable for advanced students, i. e., for those who
have taken a full three years' curriculum in the purely technical subjects and desire a fourth year of advanced study, or for those w ho have
taken two years in the technical subjects and desire to vary the
emphasis and to spend a portion of their third and fourth years in
the broader field. Most of these courses are now available for those
desiring to pursue them.
The courses are as follows:
International Law. Professor HYDE.
Roman Law. Professor KocoUREK.
Evolution of Law (Comparative Legal History), I and II (two
courses). Professor KOCOUREK.
Analytic (Formal) _Jurisprudence. Professor KocoUREK.
Philosophy of Law. Professor KocouREK.
Science of Legal lvlethod. Professor KocouREK.
Theory of Law. Professor KocoUREK.
Legal Sociology. Professor KocouREK.
Criminal Procedure and Modern Met hods in Criminology. Professor MILLAR.
Comparative Criminal Law. Professor MILLAR.
Comparative Civil Procedure. Professor MILLAR.
Problems in Contemporary Legislation. Professors HARLEY and
WIGMORE.
Statutes. Professor HARLEY.
Legislative Draftsmanship. Professor HARLEY.
American Comparative Legislation. Professor HARLEY ..
History of Anglo-American Legal Institutions. Professors CosTIGAN, MILLAR, SCHOFIELD, and WIGMORE.
Sources of Anglo-American Legal History. Professors MILLAR,
WIGMORE, and ZANE.
These courses represent the subjects which are nowadays becoming
recognized as essential to the development of constructive legal thinking and intellectual public leadership at the bar. Our profession is at
present suffering from over-devotion in the past to the purely technical side of the law in legal education. The ambitious and pros

�gressive young men of today, who believe in the high traditions of
the bar as a profession and not merely an occupation and a livelihood, must realize, in building for their future career, that these
subjects of study offer a stimulus to that broad and constructive
thinking which will be expected of them in their day of power, and
is not to be gained by confining their studies to the technical subjects.
It is not that any particular one of these subjects is imperative
in its demands or extraordinary in its promises. What counts, for
their value to the student, is the group as a whole-this kind of
subject~the kind of ideas represented by it, and the kind of thinking
stimulated by it. In the recent report on American Legal Education, made by Professor Redlich of Vienna to the Carnegie Foundation
for Teaching, the lack of attention ordinarily given in American
law schools, both by faculties and by students, to this class of subjects, is noted by the author of the report as the principal defect
in the otherwise commendable system of modern legal education in
this country.
It is the desire of the Faculty of this School to encourage the
pursuit of this class of studies.
An outline of the respective courses is as follows:
International Law. Four semester hours. Professor HYDE.
The course embraces the study of the rights and duties of States,
particularly in relation to matters respecting political independence,
property and control, jurisdiction, nationality, treaties, as well as
amicable and hostile modes of adjusting international differences.
The work consists chiefly in the examination of American documentary evidence of what the executive, judicial and legislative departments of the United States have deemed international rights and
duties to be. Moore's Digest of International Law, Moore's International Arbitrations, and Scott's Cases are specially relied upon.
This course is expected to be enlarged, making two or more courses
in this field.
For courses on Diplomatic History, etc., given in the College of
Liberal Arts, see the University Catalogue.
Roman Law. Two semester hours. Professor KocouREK.
1.
History and Sources: Regal Period; J us Ci vile; J us
Gen ti um and J us Honorarium; J us N aturale; Codification Period.
2. Study and Exposition of Select Titles from the Digest.
The object of this course is to emphasize the principles of the
law's development, and some of the leading ideas and methods of
the Roman system in comparison with our own. The standpoint of
comparison will not include modern European codes; that being
regarded as a very large subject which requires independent treatment in any aspect. Furthermore, it is thought desirable that the
materials of Roman law should fall, first of all, within the sphere
4

�of practical jurisprudence ( contrary to the tradition). This cleavage
of treatment is moreover made necessary by the fact that formal
jurisprudence is represented in the curriculum by an independent
course.
Evolution of Law (Comparative Legal History). Two semester
hours. Professor KocouREK.
Materials: Kocourek and Wigmore's Evolution of Law Series,
Vol. I: Sources of Ancient and Primitive Law; Vol. II: Primitive
and Ancient Legal Institutions; Vol. III: Formative Influences of

Legal Development.
selected sources of four sorts. The first group includes passages
from Homer, Plutarch, C:;esar, and other classical sources portraying
primitive legal life. The second group includes similar passages
describing the legal life of the Kaffirs, Eskimos, and other surviving
peoples of retarded civilizations. The third group includes the
Roman Twelve Tables, the Greek Law of Gortyn, the Babylonian
Code of Hammurabi, and similar texts. The fourth group includes
selected documents and trials from Egyptian, Babylonian, Greek and
This material serves to illustrate the text of
Roman sources.
Volume II, which is virtually a topical treatise on the respective
legal institutions-State, clan, family, marriage, paternal power,
adoption, private property, communal property, barter, sale, agency,
mortgage, inheritance, contract, procedure, oath, blood-feud, etc., etc.
Volume III deals with the formative influences affecting the evolution
of the various legal ideas and is used in the course mentioned next
below. Volumes II and III are a compilation of chapters and essays
selected from various authors-Maine, Fustel, Kohler, Tarde, Leist,
Colnon, Tylor, etc.-ranging over all countries during the last fifty
years, and thus supplying copious materials for critical discussion of
the progress of knowledge, in connection with the original materials
ofVolume I.
Evolution of Law II. One semester hour. Professor KOCOUREK.
Materials: Kocourek and v\Tigmore's Evolution of Law Series, Vol.
III ( Formative Influences).
This course takes up advanced topics of legal evolution, arising out
of the themes dealt with in the preceding course.
Formal ( Analytical) Jurisprudence. Two semester hours. Professor KOCOUREK.
.
Part I. Nature of Law and its Sources: Survey of fields of
legal science; sources of positive law: cu·stom, precedent, professional
opinion, legislation. Excursus: science of case law. Part II. Fundamental Legal Ideas: theories of the nature of legal rights; elements
and classification of rights; persons; things; facts; property; possession; obligations; liability; negligence.
-The course is intended to survey, classify, and analyze the per5

�vasive legal ideas common to developed systems of laws, as a foundation for precise legal thinking and an accurate use of legal terminology. In an entirely secondary sense it provides an organic review
of some of the basic ideas of the Anglo-American system of law.
Philosophy of Law. Two semester hours. Professor KocoUREK.
Part I. Introductory Surveys: r, Theories of Law. 2, Theories
of Justice. 3, Theories of Natural Law. 4, Legal Philosophy
Concept.
Part II. Historical Surveys: r, Early Aryan Period. 2, Greek
Period. 3, Roman Period. 4, Mediaeval Period. 5, Modern Period.
Part III. Current Legal Philosophies: r, Neo-Kantian School;
2, Neo-Hegelian School; 3, Positivist School. Excursus: trends of
American legal philosophy.
Texts: Modern Legal Philosophy Series, selected volumes.
The course is designed to furnish a thorough insight into the
meanings of law, justice, and legal philosophy, and to give a rapid
survey of the historical variations of legal philosophy in the Aryan
world. Preparation in logic, psychology, economics, sociology, and
general philosophy is recommended as a foundation for the course.
Science of Legal Met hod ( 1 uridical Methodology). One semester hour. Professor KocouREK.
Law and discretion and their limitations; scope of law; relation
of law and logic; analogy, teleology, production, and projection in
application of law; "freie Rechtsfi.ndung" ("libre recherche"); application of law under codes and precedents; methods of case law;
problem of law's keeping abreast of other sciences; codification;
kinds of courts; machinery of appellate justice, its theory.
Text: Vol. IX, Modern Legal Philosophy Series ( "Science of
Legal Method").
Theory of La·w . Two semester hours. Professor KocouREK.
Definition of law; juridical norms and technical norms; juridical
law and ethical norms; law and coercion; origin of law; schools of
jurisprudence; theories of development of law; varieties of legal
norms; concept of State and sovereignty.
Legal Sociology. One semester hour. Professor KocouREK.
Statistical and descriptive investigation of the operation of specific
legal rules in actual life. This work is done under the supervision of
the instructor, and requires preparation of a survey in the form of a
report outlined at the beginning of the work. Open only to students
who have done satisfactory work in this group of courses.
Problems in Contemporary Legislation. One semester hour.
Professors HARLEY and WIGMORE.
This course may be described as an elementary experience with
law in the making. After two years of study in analyzing and dissecting judicial decisions, the student may well proceed from consid6

�eration of law as a static element to law as a dynamic force. The
main purpose of the course is to cultivate a correct attitude towards
the body of the law as not inherently static, but as potentially always
in need of improving change,-yet a change which shall be based on a
definite knowledge of the shortcomings and shall adjust itself accurately and concretely to the existing rules. On the subjective side, it
has proved advantageous to acquaint the student with the present
growth of law as legal phenomenon of striking significance. Modern
law may be considered as struggling to grow up to commercial and
social needs. On the objective side, the need for training lawyers for
usefulness in the field in which the bar alone can serve calls for
consideration at the hands of the law school.
The topics are only those which ( r) have given rise to more or
less public discussion in print, and (2) deal with some proposed
change in that common law ( or traditional statutory law) which is
treated in the law school curriculum; they are thus meant to exclude
topics which, though involving problems of legislation, deal primarily
with social, economic, or similar materials. The purpose is not to
disseminate information concerning the topics, though this is an incidental result, but to study and discuss the plausible reaction of the
legal mind toward the solution of the problems involved. Among
those topics taken up in recent years have been the following: Writ
of Habeas Corpus, Juvenile Court, Expert Testimony, Federal
Control of Corporations, Bills of Lading, Delays and Technicalities
in Procedure, Indeterminate Sentence, Personal Injury Litigation,
Migratory Divorce, etc.
Each student selects a topic and prepares to lead the discussion
at the session devoted to his topic. He ( r) presents the existing law
on the subject, (2) voices the complaints and objections which have
been recorded, and ( 3) proposes legislation intended to obviate these
defects according to approved methods of legal science. The other
members of the class are permitted to question freely, and finally to
participate in a round-table debate and vote upon the concrete
proposals. This method has been found to effect ( r) a fairly thorough presentation, (2) a maximum of information and stimulation of
interest on the part of the entire class, and ( 3) practice in drawing
up and using the students' fund of legal knowledge and correlating it
with concrete problems of public interest and importance. The
class may be considered, by way of analogy, as a typical legislative
-committee before which has appeared a champion for a proposed
legislative measure of a comprehensive nature.
This course has been given to classes in this School of Law for the
past eight years. Meanwhile the relation of the average practicing
lawyer to the development of statute law has been one of increasing
participation and responsibility. The development of the legislative
drafting bureau in one form or another has served to direct attention
7

�to one of the greatest sources of weakness in American state government. It is now finally realized that the great mass of statutes
intended to modify, correlate and extend the field of law are almost
uniformly defective in technique and in grasp of the science of law.
A practical science of legislation to fill this insistent need is being
created. Technical and scientific aid to legislative bodies is found
not antagonistic to our highest theory of popular representation. But
finally the need, whether through complete development of the drafting bureau idea or through improved personnel of representative
bodies, comes back to the legal profession, and must be sustained by
the better educated lawyers and those who devote more or less of their
time to government.
The following additional courses are designed to amplify the Law
School function in this field:
Statutes. Two semester hours. Professor HARLEY.
In this course consideration will be especially given to ( 1) the
scope and authority of conscious law-making as a practical and theoretical matter, and ( i) the condition of the law at the present time
as expressed by statutes, both historically and analytically. A considerable part of the course will naturally be devoted to the operation
and effect of statutes and to their construction.
Legislative Drafting: Two semester hours. Professor HARLEY.
An opportunity for decidedly practical training is afforded by this
course. After a study of the mechanics of legislation, students will
proceed to individual and original work in draftsmanship. Their
drafts will become the subject of class-room discussion and will be
re-submitted to individuals or committees for revision. The rapid
growth of the need and demand for expert legislative draftsmen
should recommend this course to students ambitious to attach themselves to matters of present public need in the states in which they
will reside.
An additional phase of this entire subject of law in the making
deserves consideration. It appears highly probable that a development of classes along the lines indicated will result in the formation
of a center of legislative training and experience which will permit
of something more significant even than the preparation of the individual student. In collaboration with members of the faculty and
experts in various fields of growing law, it should become natural and
easy to develop one or more constructive lines of legislation through
co-operation of all concerned, but outside of the curriculum proper.
To some extent, depending in part upon the qualifications of advanced
and grad·uate students, such work may become not only of great public
service, but afford incidentally a field for practical experience on the
part of st-udents of these courses and especially students for advanced
degrees.

�American Comparative Legislation. Two semester hours. Professor HARLEY.
Specific branches of the law are traced through legislative processes, with special atte'ntion to the means taken to accomplish desired
ends. Legislation as a means to accomplish definite purposes is presented through selected examples.
Criminal Procedure and Applied Criminology. Two semester
hours. Professor MILLAR.
This course is arranged with a view to putting the _student
abreast of modern scientific thought on the subject of penal methods.
It comprises, first, a systematic study of the existing rules relating to
Jurisdiction and Venue, Prosecution, Arrest, Extradition, Proceedings before the Magistrate, Bail, the Grand Jury, Indictment, Arraignment, Pleas and Motions, Trial and Verdict, New Trial and
Arrest of Judgment, Judgment, Sentence and Execution and Prqceedings on Appeal or Error, as they are applied in American courts,
concurrently with a discussion of specific proposals for reform
recently advanced, and a comparative examination of certain portions
of other systems. After a general survey of the history of penal
theory, the course then deals with the doctrines and practice of
individualization of punishment. From this standpoint, a study in
some detail is made of the criminal offender, the causes of his
delinquency, the possibility of differentiating types and classes, mental
abnormality in relation to crime, methods of diagnosis and prognosis
and their procedural bearings, actual and potential, and the specialization of penal judgments, including a consideration of probation
and the indeterminate sentence.
Texts: Mikell's Cases on Criminal Procedure, Healy's The
Individual Delinquent, and selected readings.
Comparative Criminal Law. One semester hour. Professor
MILLAR.
Commencing with a brief survey of the history of criminal law
on the Continent of Europe-an acquaintance with that of the AngloAmerican criminal law being assumed,-this course will proceed to
a comparative study of some of the leading ideas of criminal law,
as they come to expression in different systems. Classification of
offenses, criminal attempt, criminal participation, plurality of offenses,
extenuating circumstances, and forms of punishment will thus come
under examination, on the basis of materials furnished by the textwriters and by the provisions of the more important Continental
penal codes.
Texts: Von Bar's History of Continental Criminal Law;
Barrow's Penal Codes of France, Germany, Belgium and Japan, and
selected readings.

�Comparative Civil Procedure.

MILLAR.

Two semester hours.

Professor

Apart from its general educative purpose, this course is meant
to furnish the student with such a viewpoint and equipment in
matters of civil procedure, as will enable him intelligently to share
in the necessary and inevitable task of procedural reform which today
lies before the American bar. At the outset, the aim is to secure an
acquaintance with the leading principles of the medireval Germanic
procedure on the one hand, and of the Roman civil procedure, on the
other, and to view, in proper perspective, the diverse methods by which
the two systems strove to attain a common end. That done, the
course proceeds to trace the historical progress of these principles and
to examine, in critical comparison, the main features of the modern
systems in which they are embodied. In the latter regard, the civil
procedures of Scotland, France, Italy, Germany and the Scandinavian
countries, as well as the developments of the Canon law procedure,
will be considered in relation to the Common Law Equity and Code
procedures of the Anglo-American law.
A reading knowledge of German and French is prerequisite.
Texts: Engelmann's History of Continental Civil Procedure,
and selected readings.
History of Anglo-American Legal Institutions. Four semester
hours. Professors COSTIGAN, MILLAR, SCHOFIELD, and WIGMORE.
This course aims to furnish a general and connected survey,
complementary to the fragmentary historical views obtained in the
other courses upon the individual parts of the law.
Each of the instructors, in separate series of lectures, will take
up the history of several institutions or general principles-for example, transferability of rights, court procedure, succession, types of contracts, remedies, extinction of claims, industrial property, etc. The
general connection of the history of the various parts of the law will
be further made plain by references to the treatises to be used by the
student.
Sources of Anglo-American Legal History. One semester hour.
Professors MILLAR, WIGMORE, and ZANE.
This course assumes that the history of similar specific topics
has already been treated as a part of the various other courses, and
. purports to carry the student to a broader_ viewpoint. The course
does not consist of manuscript lectures read by the instructor, and
is not meant to supply any purpose which the student could equally
attain by his own perusal of accepted treatises. It aims (I) to
acquaint the student with correct critical standards of authority for
his own studies, ( 2) to convey the spirit of history not as annals
merely but as an evolution, both in general periods and in particular
institutions and rules, (3) to develop the ability to pursue historical
10

�research independently. The course will consist of preliminary lectures on the use of historical sources and on periods and influences.
The student will meanwhile have made himself familiar with the
general tenor of Anglo-American legal history by perusal of two or
three accepted treatises. Various aspects will then be treated of the
Year Books and other sources, by the respective instructors, in separate series of lectures. Examples will then be studied of topical
expos1t10n. The student will then proceed to an assigned piece of
historical work of his own, making a report on the history of some
selected topic; the instructor's public critique, and the revision of the
essay, will end the course.

�Founding, Purpose, and Location of the
Law School

T

HE LAW SCHOOL was founded in 1859 with a sum of
money given by Thomas Hoyne, when there were only three
similar schools west of the Allegheny Mountains. The
first dean was Henry Booth, 1859-1891. For many years the School
was under the joint control of the old University of Chicago and
of Northwestern University, and was known as the Union College
of Law. In 1891, the other University having long ceased to share
in the management and being about to surrender its charter, Northwestern University assumed sole control, and the School has since
been an integral part of the University, and has borne its name.
The course of study is arranged to give a knowledge of the law
that will be indispensable to students wherever they may practice.
Graduates of the School now practice in nearly forty States and
Territories. Special courses are offered for acquiring a knowledge
of the law of Illinois.
The Case-study system, or the study of the principles of law as
illustrated in judicial opinions, 1s followed; but each instructor employs it according to his own judgment, conducting the classes by
lectures, discussions, recitations, written exercises, or in any way he
deems best adapted to the subject. The extensive library of the
School, the Elbert H. Gary Library of Law, lends itself peculiarly
to this modern and scientific method of instruction.
The School is located in Northwestern University Building at
the corner of Lake and Dearborn Streets, Chicago, which was
acquired and rebuilt in 1901-1902, at a cost of nearly one million
dollars. It is situated near the center of the business district of
Chicago and is of easy access from all residence portions of the city.
The City; State, an&lt;l Federal Courts are within a few blocks. The
School occupies 24,000 square feet of space, divided into convenient
lecture-rooms, assembly-ro·omsj study-rooms, professor's offices, courtroom; and library. The arrangement of ·the ropms; opening on an
inn'er court, e'nstires seclusi'on and 'quiet for study.

Library Facilities
THE ELBERT H. GARY LIBRARY OF LAW

The library of some 43,000 volumes represents chiefly the gifts
of the Honorable Elbert H. Gary, LL.B., 1867, of New York City,
and is unusual in its scope. It contains duplicate sets of the United
States Reports, the official Reports of all the States and Territories,
the complete National Reporter System, partly in duplicate, the
Lawyers' Reports Annotated, all of the official Illinois Reports in
duplicate, statutes of all the States in the Union, and a large collection of digests, periodicals, encyclopedias and text-books. Of the
British legal sources, it possesses the complete Statutes, and substantially all the regular Reports of England, Ireland, and Canada since
the beginning of the Year Books, except those appearing in law
journals. The extensive library of the Chicago Law Institute, two
blocks distant, exchanges the privileges of consultation for all book:s
not in the Elbert H. Gary Library.
Besides the library of Modern Anglo-American law, there are
the following special collections:

Modern Continental Law, numbering some 12,000 volumes on
the law of the twenty-three European countries, as contained in
statutes, decisions, journals, and treatises, is more comprehensive in
scope than any other collection in the United States.
International Law, numbering nearly 3,000 volumes, includes a
large quantity of printed material relating to American, British and
Continental diplomacy, not elsewhere available in the West.
Ancient, Oriental, Primitive and Medieval L aw includes the
Hindu, Mohammedan, Hebrew, Babylonian, Egyptian, Greek, Chinese, Japanese and sundry other systems, as well as the medieval
European materials. It numbers 2 ,500 volumes, and offers unique
facilities for research to students of comparative legal history.
Roman and Civil Law, numbering 2,500 volumes, including the
library of the late Moritz Voigt of Leipzig, Germany, contains many
r-are volumes not found in any other American Library.
Ecclesiastical Law, numbering 200 volumes, contains a selection
of the most useful texts, commentaries, and journals.
Jurisprudence and Philosophy of Law, numbering I ,ooo volumes,
includes all the important American, English, German, French,
Imlian and Latin te xts on this subject.

NORTHWESTERN

UNIVERSITY

Criminal Law and Criminology, numbering over 3,000 volumes,
provides the most ample materials, from all countries, for research
in this growing subject.
Anglo-American Legal History includes material relating to
English Historical Legal Literature, sets of Colonial session laws
(mostly reprints), revisions, contemporary and modern treatises on
the laws of the colonies, and other material related to the history of
the development of the common law in England and the United
States. This collection now numbers about 2,500 volumes and contains many rare and valuable historical treatises.
Latin-American Law includes collections of the laws of Mexico,
the Central American, and the South American States, following the
arrangement in the Gary Collections of Modern Continental Law;
that is, a collection of the codes, ordinances, decisions of the Supreme
Court, most important treatises, and leading law journals. Thus far
the volumes installed number 3,000, and will be increased as rapidly
as the material can be acquired.
Legal Bibliography, numbering some 500 volumes and pamphlets,
covering all topics and countries, is one of the most extensive of the
kind in this country.

Combined Courses m Six Years
A member of the third or fourth year class, in good standing in

the College of Liberal Arts, may elect work in the course in Law

which shall count toward his graduation in both the College of
Liberal Arts and in the Law School, but the work elected cannot
exceed one year's work in the Law School. Each election is subject
to the approval of both faculties. This provision enables a student
to complete a course in the College of Liberal Arts and Law in
six years.
Students transferring from other colleges to the Law School and
presenting as much as 72 hours of college credit, including the prescribed studies for the degree of Bachelor of Arts or Science, may
become eligible for that degree in this University by taking three
courses under the Arts faculty amounting to 18 hours of credit. The
choice of such courses shall be made under the direction of the
Law faculty, subject to the condition that prescribed studies must be
completed.
A member of the Law School not a candidate for an Arts or
Science degree may pursue not more than one course at a time in
the College of Liberal Arts during the period of his registration m
the Law School without additional charge for tuition.
ADVANCED STANDING

The requirements for advanced standing are explained under the
title Requirements for Degrees, page 34.
SPECIAL STUDENTS

Persons, not candidates for a degree, may pursue one or more
courses as special students, provided they are qualified to pursue such
courses to advantage. They will receive a certificate for all work
done and may enter at any time as candidates for a degree, provided
they were substantially qualified under the above requirements for
admission as regular students at. the time of first entering the School.
No special student may take more than twenty-five semester hours of
work in one year without special permission from the Dean.
TIME FOR ENTRANCE

Students are urged to enter at the beginning of the year. The
disadvantages of late registration are embarrassing, especially to
students who intend to practice law in Illinois.

�IO

NORTHWESTERN UNIVERSITY

Application for advanced standing must be made before November
in the year of entrance. Registration for the graduate or fourth
year course must be made before October I.

Pre-Legal Course in the College of Liberal Arts
A full four-year course in the College of Liberal Arts is recommended by the faculty of the Law School as preparatory to the study
of law. Those who are unable to do this are recommended to tak:e
one, two, or three years, as they may be able.
Students who expect to enter the Law School and desire to pursue studies in College solely in preparation for entrance to the Law
School may pursue them in the College of Liberal Arts of this University without conforming to the program prescribed in general
for candidates for the degree of Bachelor of Arts or Sciences, or
to that prescribed in particular for first-year students; but they are
subject to the following conditions:
I.
They must file with the College Registrar a certificate from
the Dean or Secretary of the Law School that they are matriculated
in the Law School for the pre-legal course, and are recommended by
such officer to take courses in the College preparatory to entrance to
the Law School.
2. They must be qualified to enter the College under some one
of the usual requirements.
3. They must take any course needed to make up a deficiency
in such requirement.
4. They may in the first year take only the elementary courses
in any subject, unless so far as the College adviser in that subject
certifies them to be qualified for advanced courses.
5. They may reckon the work done in College towards a degree
of Bachelor of Arts or Sciences, but only so far as such work may
coincide with the regular College program for such degrees.
6. Subject to the foregoing conditions, they may pursue one
of the special programs set forth below:
Two kinds of programs are here given; one for students who
enter to take one or two years of College courses, not as candidates
for a degree of Bachelor of Arts or Sciences, but solely as a preparation for entering the Law School; the other for students who art
candidates for a degree in the College of Liberal Arts, but expect
afterwards to pursue a course in law. The latter program is so
constructed as to fulfill the rules of the Liberal Arts Faculty of this
University, requiring certain courses to be included by candidates for
a degree in Arts or Sciences.

Courses of Instruction
The courses of instruction offered make a total of 126 semester
hours, and are carefully graded between the three years. A regular
student may take any course offered in the year to which he belongs,
or any course not already taken in a preceding year; but he may not

take, without special perm1ss10n, a course assigned to a succeeding
year, except Constitutional Law, Code Pleading, Irrigation Law,
Mining Law, and Patents of Invention, which may be taken in the
second year. Conveyancing and Property III are not open to students
who have not previously taken Property I and II.
The ccurses in Illinois Law are supplementary to the main
courses in the same subjects, and are designed to give scientific
treatment of the peculiarities of Illinois law. They are serviceable
to those who have already studied or been admitted in other states.
SCHEDULE OF HOURS

In general the schedule of hours is arranged as follows: First
year courses, between two and five o'clock in the afternoon; second
year courses, between nine a. m. and one p. m.; third year courses, between two and six o'clock in the afternoon. The Practice Court is
held in the evening at half-past seven.

TRAINING IN LEGAL WRITING, SPEAKING, AND PRACTICE

As a part of the systematic instruction in the body of the law,
represented in the foregoing curriculum, an effort is made to provide
adequate training in the practical use of legal knowledge and discipline, and in certain important details of legal writing and speaking which help materially to equip the accomplished lawyer. The
various branches of work directed to this end are as follows:

�20

NORTHWESTERN UNIVE~SITY

Pleadings and Other Instruments- The courses on Common Law
Pleading, Code Pleading, and Equity Pleading, in addition to the
study of the legal sources, include exercises in the drafting of the
various kinds of pleadings. In Corporations the class is formed during the second semester into two corporations, which organize, elect
officers; issue stock, enlarge capital, keep books, consolidate, and do
various other acts of corporate business calling for the drafting of
instruments and in other ways familiarizing the student with the
use of the legal knowledge acquired. In other courses, particularly
in Commercial Paper, Carriers, Insurance, attention is paid to the ·
forms of instruments in common use.
Conveyancing-In the course on Conveyancing the chief material
consists of a series of ten selected abstracts of title representing a
great variety of documents and proceedings involving property rights.
A copy of each abstract is purchased by each member of the class,
and a detailed study of matters of form and substance is made from
the conveyancer's point of view, and with regard to the laws of different states. Thorough work in this course ought to equip the
student as a practical conveyancer at the time of his entering upon
his profession. No one may take this course who has not taken the
courses Property I and II.
Trial Practice-The courses on Procedure and Practice give a
systematic and detailed survey of the rules of law. The course on
Evidence includes an auxiliary drill in the use of the rules. The
Practice Court gives the third year student opportunity to become
practically familiar with these rules by the application of them in
litigation managed by himself. The sessions of the Court are held
· weekly, on Thursday evenings, for two hours. During each session
from one to three cases are tried, with and without a jury; and
other cases are disposed of in various aspects. Between the sessions,
causes are being prepared and advanced from stage to stage by the
student-attorneys in charge. While the proceedings are dispatched
at the hearings by the respective attorneys, all members of the class
are required to attend, to make notes and to report on the work
done. A faithful attention to this course ought to give the graduate
experience in the use of legal knowledge that will materially assist
him in starting in his profession. The systematic pursuit of such
a course under an experienced instructor affords the student results more thorough, accurate, and extensive than can be obtained
in the desultory service of a law office during a long period. A copy
of the printed Rules of the Practice Court will be mailed upon
request.

�THE

LAW

SCHOOL

21

Theses-To encourage original research, the Faculty grants credit,
not to exceed two semester hours, to any member of the third-year
class who shall present a satisfactory thesis upon some legal topic.
The topic must be approved by a member of the Faculty before December I and the thesis must be presented on or before May I 5 of
the year in which the student expects to graduate; it must be printed
or typewritten and becomes the property of the School. The work
should be begun not later than October.
Editorial Work-To edit and digest for the profession the opinion
and record of a decided case is of great value in cultivating the skill
required in preparing briefs and analyzing precedents. Each year
not more than seven second and third year students of known ability
are appointed Associate Editors of the Illinois Law Review, to digest
manuscript decisions of the Appellate Court.
Moot Courts-A moot court is held in the second year once a
week from November I to May I. The class is divided into two
sections, A and B, meeting on alternate weeks. The work consists
of the preparation and delivery of arguments and opinions of law on
statements of facts assigned beforehand, and is in charge of the Instructor in Forensics, with the assistance of the other members of
the Faculty.
No student is recommended for a degree, except by unanimous
vote of the Faculty, who has not satisfactorily done the work of this
course; but students entering the third-year class from another school
may by vote of the Faculty be excused from this course. Credit,
one semester hour.
Public Debate-Students selected in April at the preliminary
contest to compete in the second preliminary for the Towle Prizes for
Public Speaking and taking part therein, receive one semester hour
of credit. Students who have not taken Forensics, or the equivalent
in another school, are not eligible.
Legal Aid Society-After October I students are assigned as
assistants in the Chicago Legal Aid Society, University Branch, for
practical office and trial work. No student having grade C in more
than one course is eligible for assignment. The hours of work are
determined by agreement with the Superintendent of the Society.

Summer Courses
A course of summer work is provided, open to those who have
studied law for one or two years in this or another law school.

�NORTHWESTERN

22

UNIVERSITY

The courses are reading courses. No lectures are given. The
student reads assigned books. Credit is obtained by passing an
examination, or by presenting a report or essay, at the opening of
the fall term in October. The amount of credit obtainable is stated
in term hours after each course. A maximum of 15 term hours is
here provided for.
The courses are selected from those named in the regular curriculum. For details as to books to be read, see the description of
courses there given. In any course the books specified may be
changed, by written consent of the instructor, filed with the Secretary. When no books are specified, the student must obtain a list
from the instructor, a copy to be filed with the Secretary.
The School Library is open for study during the summer, and all
necessary books may be there consulted. The instructors will advise
with the student at any time on application.

Of the above courses, only Nos. r, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 9, rr, 13, 14, r8,
may be taken by those who have studied law for one year only. In
Nos. 8, ro, 15, 16, 17, the credit is obtainable by preparing a written
report or essay, instead of passing an examination.
Registration for summer courses must be made between June I
and June 30. Examinations will be given in October, on dates
specially set.

The summer courses are recommended to ambitious and industrious students, who may not be obliged to occupy themselves at other
work, for three main reasons:
r. They put the student more at liberty to take, during the
regular school year, a larger number of those courses which can best
be pursued only in the class room under the lectures of an instructor,
and which might otherwise have to be omitted for lack of time.
2. They enlarge his learning as a lawyer in a number of subjects
which, though commonly not termed "practical," are becoming more
and more necessary for the lawyer who expects to take part in the
progressive movements of the day and the constructive legislation of
the future.

3. They furnish him with the groundwork for continuing his
personal studies on broader lines after graduation, and for avoiding
that degeneration into a mere mechanical practitioner which in after
years is for lawyers a most serious danger in both its civic and its
personal aspects.
The summer courses are not recommended merely as a method of
shortening the time required for graduation or for admission to the
bar, first, because to shorten that time is inadvisable, both for the
individual and for the profession; next, because the rules of the Illinois State Board of Bar Examiners require in any case three full
years of study; and, further, because the rules of the Association of
·
American Law Schools require three full years of study.
But the credits obtained may be reckoned on the number of credits
sufficient for graduation in this School, subject to all other rules
applicable.

�24

NORTHWESTERN

UNIVERSITY

Courses of Reading in Legal History, Legal Biography, Jurisprudence, and General Legal Literature
OBJECTS OF THESE COURSES

There are two chief benefits to be obtained from the work in
these courses of reading. (I) They help to expand the lawyer's view
in all legal matters, by giving him an acquaintance with the best
traditions of a great profession and the examples of his predecessors,
and a familiarity with the lawyer's science in its broadest relations.
( 2) They help to reach the final stage of independent legal thinking,
by cultivating the habit and skill of mastering the materials without
the artificial stimulus of a daily task under the instructor's oversight.
The student is therefore recommended to cast off frankly the spirit
of merely seeking credit for a measured task. These courses have
to be measured in units for school purposes; but he is urged not to
confine himself to the minimum amount of reading in each prescribed
subject, but to range through the material and to read as much as
he can in those selected subjects which most interest him. At the
same time he is expected not to let the freedom of range of choice
injure habits of accuracy, and is therefore held responsible for a
thorough acquaintance with the works presented for examination.
REGULATIONS FOR THE COURSES
I.
For graduation the regulations for Required Courses, on
page 35, apply here as follows: ( 1) A credit of not less than
Grade C, averaged for all five courses, must have been obtained in
Courses A, B1, B2, and B3; (2) and for obtaining the required
credit in any two of the remaining five subjects enumerated on page
35 (par. 4) any of the reading courses C1, C2, or C3 may be substituted for the corresponding lecture courses.

2. A credit of one term hour will be given on passing the examination in each one of the above prescribed courses of reading, as
well as in the optional Courses BA1, BA2, BA3, CA1, and CA2.
3. An examination will be held at the beginning of the first
term of the year and at the end of the first term, in the B and C
courses; but notice must be filed in the Secretary's office, at least
sixty days before the announced date of examination, by each student
intending to take it. On thirty days' prior request, other examinations may be given. The A course is given only once each year, on
or about November 1.

�THE

LAW

SCHOOL

25

Students are urged to do the required reading during the summer
vacation.
A student failing at any examination may take the next regular
examination jf he has reviewed the work.
A student may take any of these examinations at any time after
entering the School, no matter to what class he belongs.
4. A student entering with advanced standing need not take
Course A.
5. A student who has already obtained credit at a college or law
school for work equivalent to Courses Ci, C2, or C3, will be given
credit for that course as required in this School; but may also obtain
credit by doing the work of any remaining courses not taken elsewhere.
6. No lectures are given in any of these Courses, except Ci,
C2, C3, the lecture courses of Jurisprudence, Roman Law, and
International Law; the work is done by private study. But the
courses are under the general supervision of the Dean, who will give
any desired advice on the materials of study.
7. The credit in any of the Courses C will count as one of the
required ten term-hours of the Third Year.
8. Students are recommended to own the books named if they
can afford to purchase them, but the Library will provide a sufficient
number of copies for use.

in the
Law School

�I. Courses in Jurisprudence and Legal Science

The Faculty of Law of Northwestern University announces for
1915-1916 the following group of lecture courses suitable for advanced students, i. e., for those who have taken a full three years'
curriculum in the purely technical subjects and desire to pursue a
fourth year of advanced study, or for those who have taken two
years in the technical subjects and desire to vary the emphasis and
to spend a portion of their third year in the broader field.
The courses are as follows:
Roman Law . Two semester hours.

Professor KocoUREK.

Evolution of Law (Comparative Legal History).
hours. Professor KocouREK.
International Law.

Four semester hours.

Problems in Contemporary L egislation.

Two semester

These courses represent the subjects which are nowadays becoming
recognized as essential to the development of constructive legal thinking and intellectual public leadership at the bar. Our profession is at
present suffering from over-devotion in the past to the purely technical side of the law in legal education. The ambitious and progressive young men of today, who believe in the high traditions of
the bar as a profession and not merely an occupation and a livelihood, must realize, in building for their future career, that these
subjects of study offer a stimulus to that broad and constructive
thinking which will be expected of them in their day of power, and
is not to be gained by confining their studies to the technical subjects.
It is not that any particular one of these subjects is imperative
in its demands or extraordinary in its promises. What counts, for
their value to the student, is the group as a whole-this kind of
subject-the kind of ideas represented by it, and the kind of thinking

stimulated by it. In the recent report on American Legal Education, made by Professor Redlich of Vienna to the Carnegie Foundation for Teaching, the lack of attention ordinarily given in American
law schools, both by faculties and by students, to this class of subjects, is noted by the author of the report as the principal defect
in the otherwise commendable system of modern legal education in
this country.

It is the desire of the Faculty of this School to encourage the
pursuit of this class of studies, either as a fourth-year course or as
part of a third-year course.
A brief outline of the respective courses follows:
Roman Law.

Two semester hours.

Professor KocoUREK.

I.
History and Sources: Regal Period; Jus Ci vile; Jus
Gen ti um and Jus Honorarium; Jus N aturale; Codification Period.
(Text to be assigned.)
2. Study and Exposition of Select Titles from the Digest: The
object of this course is to emphasize the principles of the
law's development, and some of the leading ideas and methods of
the Roman system in comparison with our own. The standpoint of
comparison will not include modern European codes; that being
regarded as a very large subject which requires independent treatment in any aspect. Furthermore, it is thought desirable that the
materials of Roman law should fall, first of all, within the sphere
of practical jurisprudence ( contrary to the tradition). This cleavage
of treatment is moreover made necessary by the fact that formal
jurisprudence is represented in the curriculum by an independent
course.

Evolution of Law (Comparative Legal History).
hours. Professor KocoUREK.

Two semester

Materials: Kocourek and Wigmore's Evolution of Law Series,
Vol. I: Sources of Ancient and Primitive Law; Vol. II: Primitive
and Ancient Legal Institutions; Vol. III: Formative Influences of
Legal Development. In Volume I are printed (in translation)
selected sources of four sorts. The first group includes passages
from Homer, Plutarch, c~sar, and other classical sources portraying
primitive legal life. The second group includes similar passages
describing the legal life of the Kafnrs, Eskimos, and other surviving
peoples of retarded civilizations. The third group includes the
Roman Twelve Tables, the Greek Law of Gortyn, the Babylonian

�4

NORTHWESTERN UNIVERSITY

Code of Hammurabi, and similar texts. The fourth group includes
selected documents and trials from Egyptian, Babylonian, Greek and
Roman sources. This material serves to illustrate the text of
Volume II, which is virtually a topical treatise on the respective
legal institutions-State, clan, family, marriage, paternal power,
adoption, private property, communal property, barter, sale, agency,
mortgage, inheritance, contract, procedure, oath, blood-feud, etc., etc.
Volume III deals with the formative influences affecting the evolution of the various legal ideas. Volumes II and III are a compilation
of chapters and essays selected from various authors- Maine, Fustel,
Kohler, Tarde, Leist, Colnon, Tylor, etc.-ranging over all countries during the last fifty years, and thus supplying copious materials
for critical discussion of the progress of knowledge, in connection
with the original materials of Volume I.
International Law. Four semester hours. Professor HYDE.
The course embraces the study of the rights and duties of States,
particularly in relation to matters respecting political independence,
property and control, jurisdiction, nationality, treaties, as well as
amicable and hostile modes of adjusting international differences.
The work consists chiefly in the examination of American documentary evidence of what the executive, judicial and legislative departments of the United States have deemed international rights and
duties to be. Moore's Digest of International Law, Moore's International Arbitrations, and Scott's Cases are specially relied upon.
Problems in Contemporary Legislation. One semester hour.
Professor WIGMORE.
This course aims to cultivate a correct attitude towards tae body
of the law as not inherently static, but as potentially always in need
of improving change,-yet a change which shall be based on a
definite knowledge of the shortcomings and shall adjust itself accurately and concretely to the existing rules. The method pursued
is that of a legislative committee in session, but without its drafting
paraphernalia. One member of the class, at each session, presents
a report on some specific change now publicly proposed; and the
others of the class debate and criticize his report; voting finally for
and against it. The topics are limited strictly to the technical parts
of the law. Among those taken up in recent years have been the
following: Writ of Habeas Corpus, Juvenile Court, Expert Testimony, Federal Control of Corporations, Bills of Lading, Delays and
Technicalities in Procedure, Indeterminate Sentence, Personal Injury

�THE

LAW

SCHOOL

Litigation, World Court of Justice, Employers' Liability, etc. Each
report presents the subject under the triple heading: What are the
alleged shortcomings? What are the various remedies proposed by
way of change of the rule of law? Which remedy does the reporter
favor, and why?
A "List of References on Problems of Contemporary Legislation," containing a working bibliography on some thirty current
topics, has been printed for the use of the class, and may be had on
· application to the School.
Formal ( Analytical) Jurisprudence.
fessor KocouREK.

Arrest of Judgment, Judgment, Sentence and Execution and Proceedings on Appeal or Error, as they are applied in American courts,
concurrently with a discussion of specific proposals for reform
recently advanced, and a comparative examination of certain portions
of other systems. After a general survey of the history of penal
theory, the course then deals with the doctrines and practice of
individualization of punishment. From this standpoint, a study in
some detail is made of the criminal offender, the causes of his
delinquency, the possibility of differentiating types and classes, mental
abnormality in relation to crime, methods of diagnosis and prognosis
and their procedural bearings, actual and potential, and the specialization of penal judgments, including a consideration of probation
and the indeterminate sentence.
Texts: Mikell's Cases on Criminal Procedure, Healy's The
Individual Delinquent, and selected readings.

Anglo-American Legal History.

One semester hour.

Professor

WIGMORE.

This course assumes that the history of similar specific topics
has already been treated as a part of the various other courses, and
purports to carry the student to a broader viewpoint. The course
does not consist of manuscript lectures read by the instructor, and
is not meant to supply any purpose which the student could equally
attain by his own perusal of accepted treatises. It aims (I) to

SCHOOL

acquaint the student with correct critical standards of authority for
his own studies, ( 2) to convey the spirit of history not as annals
merely but as an evolution, both in general periods and in particular
institutions and rules, (3) to develop the ability to pursue historical
research independently. The course will consist of preliminary lectures on the use of historical sources and on periods and influences.
The student will meanwhile have made himself familiar with the
general tenor of Anglo-American legal history by perusal of two or
three accepted treatises. Examples will then be studied of topical
exposition. The student will then proceed to an assigned piece of
historical work of his own, making a report on the history of some
selected topic; the instructor's public critique, and the revision of
the essay, will end the course.

II. Reading Courses
To enlarge the lawyer's view, by giving him an acquaintance
with the best traditions of his profession, and to stimulate independent legal thinking and a familiarity with all aspects of legal
science, two groups of reading courses are provided. In these the
student reads certain assigned materials, and presents a report or
takes an examination, to test his acquaintance with the subject.
The first group of reading courses is for undergraduates, and is
in part prescribed for the degrees of LL.B. and J.B. The second
group is for graduate students, and is in part prescribed for the
degree of J.D.

Group I ( for undergraduates). A: Introduction to the Study of
the Law (prescribed). B: History of the English Bench and Bar
(prescribed). B2: History of the American Bench and Bar ( prescribed). B3: General Legal Literature (prescribed). BA1: History of the English Bench and Bar. BA2: History of the American
Bench and Bar. BA3: Anglo-American Legal History. CI: Jurisprudence (Analytical Jurisprudence, Legal Philosophy, Comparative
Legal History). C2: International Law. C3: Roman Law ( one
of the foregoing three is prescribed). CAI : Continental Legal History. CA2: Philosophy and History of Crime and Criminal Law.
Lists of reading for the foregoing group are printed in the
annual Bulletin-Catalogue.
Group II ( for graduates). I : History of the Bench and Bar.
2: History of the English Legal System. 3: History of American

REFERENCE LISTS

Problems

Contemporary Legislation

T

HE ensuing lists ( of which this is the third printed edition,
revised to June, I 914) were prepared for use in a lawschool
class on Problems in Contemporary Legislation.

The topics covered are only those which (I) have given rise
to more or less public discussion in print (i. e., not merely any and
every serious proposal of legislative change), and ( 2) deal with some
proposed change in that common law ( or traditional statutory law)
which is ordinarily treated in a law school curriculum, i. e., what
may be called "lawyer's law," distinctively; they are thus meant to
exclude topics which, though involving problems of legislation, deal
primarily with economic or similar materials, such as the income tax,
the "blue-sky" laws, conservation of resources, the liquor problem, etc.
The references are not meant to be complete. Something is
meant to he left to the ingenuity of the student himself. But the list
will in every case place the inquirer on the track of the remaining
materials; and the citations usually include all the principal sources;
conferences, committee reports, and similar documents, valuable but
not put into general circulation, have been especially searched for.
Professional journals and proceedings furnish almost . all the
materials. The scope of active discussion within the profession on
the policies of our law will doubtless be a surprise to many.

AN ACCOUNT OF A COURSE IN

Problems of Contemporary
Legislation
The Subject
The subjects of inquiry and discussion are legal problems.
This is worth emphasizing, because it must not be supposed
that the course is intended or allowed to introduce into the
law school curriculum any research in the economic, social, or
political field as such. The materials concern the American
lawyer's profession as he finds it today and in prospect. And
they concern topics that the student has already met in the
usual courses, in their judicial and not in their legislative aspect.
The list of topics in the printed List of Topics and References sufficiently shows this feature. Each of them involves
one or more well-known rules or body of rules already familiar as part of the present law. Its aptness to present conditions has been questioned. The problem is, not merely to
ascertain the validity of the criticism, but to determine what
specific changes of rule would be needed to meet any criticism
that may be found valid.

l-

Thus, the work of the course involves a review of the existing rule or rules, a precision of its defects, and a shaping of its
changes. The work involves materials which are as distinctly
legal ( in the sense familiar to American lawyers) as the materials of any lecture course. And it constantly reveals to the
student how merely partial has been his grasp of the rule while
he was studying it in only its static and not its dynamic aspect.
The topics vary, of course, in the extent to which existing
decisions and statutes form the main part of the discussion.
But in each of them the problem is primarily a lawyer's problem, e. g., such topics as the Income Tax, the Minimum Wage,
and the like, are strictly excluded.
1

�The Object
To put into convincing words the multiple object of the
course is not easy. But it must be explained at the outset what
it is not . . It is not a "seminar" for the purpose of conveying
information on the pros and cons of any one of the topics. Some
colleges probably have such courses. They should not be mistaken in purpose for this one.
I. A main purpose is to open the mind of the young lawyer
to the thought that dozens of important legal rules have a legislative aspect, which he today ought to reckon with. The course
aims to make him sense this. Having been kept strictly down
( in the usual curriculum) to an analysis of the decisions, their
history and their logical connections, iff the effort to ascertain
merely what the law is (not what it ought to be), and to argue
in lawyerlike fashion towards the logical result of prior precedents applied to new cases, he tends inevitably to think of law
exclusively in this aspect. And he must now be initiated into
the other aspect.
How necessary is to be that other aspect, for the skilful
leadership of the profession in the coming generation, need not
be urged here. Those teachers who do not feel it keenly will
take no interest in this course. Those who do will feel it invaluable for the training of the coming generation of leaders
at the baL
This object then is not to convey information on important
topics. It is to introduce the advanced student ( i. e. at a stage
of his legal education when it is safe to do so) to a new way
of thinking about law.
To attain genuinely to that understanding, the natural and
sufficient method is for him to spend some time in thinking over
and discussing with others a few such topics. After a short
season of such experience, he becomes inoculated. He has
sensed-and will thereafter in his professional career not lose
this sensing- the legislative possibilities of his law. He is
groomed to take readily his part-if Destiny has any for himin the legislative activities of the near future. The main object
of the course is accomplished. That object may be somewhat
intangible now; but it is of profound consequence to the
profession.
2.
A secondary object is to familiarize the young man with
the sources of research for legislative .discussion of the existing
law. The 'best of students are often naively unfamiliar with
them. To illustrate: A member of the class once chose for
his topic "The Abolition of the Death Penalty." He had found
plenty of material; . had marshalled the statutes; had sum-

�marized the statistics, etc. But at a prior consultation it appeared
that in Kansas ( let us say), where the penalty had been abolished
and then restored, he had found nothing about the interim
experience. It was suggested that he had better look into the
governor's messages for that period; and this simple· resource
had never occurred to him.
The helplessness of the ordinary educated person in turning
to seek for the sources of facts and arguments on a legal problem
is greater than might be supposed. To initiate the embryo
lawyer into an acquaintance with the extent and variety of
reliable sources for this purpose is a real service to the profession.
3. Another secondary object is to reveal to the young lawyer
the importance of skill in making a concise informal presentation
of his cherished convictions to a group who must be persuaded.
In many and many an emergency of a lawyer's career these
two features-brevity and informality-are more vital than we
commonly reflect. Whether it be a board of directors, a city
council committee, a citizens' meeting, or a client's consultatioq-these conditions sternly limit the advocate full of his subject. He ought to have an illuminating experience before the
reality is upon him.
In this course, the part1c1pants, who heckle the chairman,
have an opportunity to observe how rare is the required talent,
and how needful its cultivation. One of the features often
gratefully spoken of is this experience of the difficulty of making all one's points effectively for a large subject in a limited
time and subject to interruption.

!

4. Incidentally, no doubt, a benefit of the course is a rather
broad scope of information on the actual problems of contemporary legislation. But if the course were conducted primarily with this view, it would easily degenerate into a "seminar," in which a "paper" is read by one, and the professor
then criticizes, while the other members sit by in respectful a~d
industrious silence. And this is not what the course is intended
to be.

The Methods
How, then, is the course conducted?
There are a good many details, as developed "in the sevenyears' tradition. Perhaps no one of them is essential. But they
all fit together. The general spirit can best be told by saying
that the class pretends that it is a legislative committee, and the
chairman for the day is laying before them a proposal for their
approval.
3

�Of course, the idea of a legislative committee is not strictly
carried out. There is no legislative machinery, not the least; the
chairman is each member of the class in turn and the professor sits along with the rest like an ordinary member; there
is no draft of a bill; and there is merely a straw vote at the
end, to satisfy curiosity as to the persuasive effect of the chairman's presentation.
And now a little more in detail.
I.
Schedule of Meetings. The class meets once a week,
for a session of an hour and three-quarters. The meetings
begin in the second term, or in December, or in October (if
enough members have prepared, as chairmen, beforehand in
summer time). The List of Topics having been posted long
before, each member selects his own; and at an early preliminary meeting a schedule of dates is made up, by lot or by
agreement.
2. Preparation.
Each member finds in the List of References enough material to give him an ample start in the sources:
Industrious ones find more or less additional material. The
sources are studied; the instructor is consulted as much or as
little as desired, but only in regard to finding materials. Notes
are prepared as fully as each one cares.
One week before each meeting, the -chairman for that meeting distributes to each member a typewritten summary of his
( Samples of such summaries
expected order of discourse.
This summary
are printed at the end of this leaflet.)
must follow one rule only, viz., its details must be grouped
under three heads :
I. What are the alleged abuses, shortcomings, defects, of
the present law?
II. What are the remedies anywhere proposed?
III. What is the remedy favored by the chairman'?
U.;ually some brief history of the subject prefaces the first topic.
3. Meetings. The member whose topic is scheduled for
the day takes the chair. Other members, including the professor, sit around a long table. Entire informality prevailsjust as in any committee meeting of friends.
The chairman may have full notes prepared, besides his Summary, but he must not read anything-except an occasional
quotation from an authority. His exposition is strictly oral.
He allots its topics so that he would take only thirty or
forty minutes, if uninterrupted. But he has never gone- far
before a question is asked; then comes another, and others;
and his forty minutes invariably expand to one hour and forty
4

�before he reaches his &lt;inding, and often .he does not reach it.
Perhaps a statement of law is doubted, perhaps a statement of
fact. Perhaps an assertion now become elementary to him
seems a mere assumption to one of the others, and so he must
digress to establish his fundamentals. In one way or another he
finds that he must satisfy all sorts of expressed doubts before he
can proceed safely to the next point. And the spirit of the
occasion, emphatically, is that he is an advocate of some thesis,

proposing or opposing a change of law to those w hose assent is
requi1·ed, and hence he must seek to satisfy all doubts, and to

carry his colleagues with him for his measures. Part of his
benefit to be got is this experience of persuading other thinking
members of the profession on a matter of legislation proposed
by him.
The chairman is to control the objectors, and not let the
due progress of his presentation be ·impeded. In this task he is
not always as successful as he might be; but the professor can
occasionally help him.
At the close, the chairman submits his proposal, in concise
fol,'m. Usually, it embodies three or four essential features. If
he feels that one or more, not essential, may endanger his
measure, he may withdraw them. But the vote must be on the
whole proposal, not on each part separately.
After each meeting, the chairman files with the professor a
list of any references which he has found and used additionally
to those on the printed list.
4. Membership. The membership is limited to sixteen; for
there are sixteen weeks in a term, and one meeting a week;
moreover, a larger number would not permit of informal committee spirit. If more than that number are to be allowed, two
classes should be formed.
If the sixteen members are selected from a larger number of
applicants, the choice can be made by priority, by lot, or by
scholarship record.
The same professor attends all meetings. But it would be
worth while for an additional one to attend; the various members of the faculty taking turns. But they should not choose
meetings when a specialty of their own supplies the topic; the
less they know on the special subject, the better members
they are.
Such is the course in Problems of Contemporary Legislation.
No doubt it could be conducted profitably on a plan differing in
details from the above description. The above method, however, has served well enough for carrying out the purposes set
forth at the beginning of these le.aflets.

Introduction
Causes of complaint

(A) Equity extended its jurisdiction.
( I ) To restrain criminal acts.
(a) Historical sketch.
(b) On the ground of nuisance causing irreparable injury.
, ( 1) Common law.
( 2) Under statutes enlarging the defini' tion of nuisance.
(c) On the ground that organizations of employees are illegal combinations in restraint of trade.
8

�(I) Common law.
(2) Under Sherman Anti-Trust Act and
other Statutes.
(d) Federal courts assume jurisdiction where
they have appointed receivers.
( e) Reasons for this expansion of jurisdiction,
and the futility of this new relief.
( 2) To restrain persons not parties to the suit and not
personally served.
(B) Results flowing from this extension of equity juris·
diction.
( r) People are deprived of jury trial in cases
which amount to crimes, and instead are
punished summarily.
( ~) Many not parties to the suit are enjoined
· and restrained.
(3) Others are punished for violation of a temporary injunction which is later held to
be without equity.
(4) Equity has been beguiled into giving relief
merely cumulative, the penal laws providing ample punishment.
( 5) Originally, personal rights and private property were protected by equity, now the
public welfare and even political rights
are.

punish summarily?
(a) As to constitutional courts.
( b) As to other courts.

( 2) Can the executive interfere with his
pardoning power?
(4) Constitutional regulation of contempts.
(a) Obviates the above queries.
(I) Removes the dignity-inspiring power
of courts from tanwering legislatures, by inhibiting legislation.
( 2) May also forbid pardons by executive except under circumstances
which would authorize the suspension of the writ of habeas
corpus.
( 3) Avoids constitutional difficulties.
( B) Definition of "co~spiracy" and regulation of issuance
of injunctions.
(I) Why this remedy too, is necessary; because of,
(a) Reckless issuing of injunctions.
(b) Lax definition of "conspiracy."
(c) Enforcement by gover_nments of public
morals and political rights, through
equity.
( 2) One remedy suggested is that equity retreat to
its normal jurisdiction, while statutes authorizing
suits by the government he repealed.
10

�(a) Only parties to suit to be restrained.
( b) All acts except such as amount to crimes
may be restrained.
( c) Punishment of crimes should be left to
criminal courts.
( d) Objections.
(3) Another remedy is that, by statute, no injunction
or restraining order should issue in cases between
capital and labor, if consummated act would be
punishable as a crime.
(a) Objections:
( r) Possible constitutional difficulty.
( 2) Impracticability.
(3) Class favoritism or special legislation is undesirable.
(4) A third remedy consists of two distinct yet related
topics.
(a) Where inj uni:tions issue to restrain acts
criminal in their nature, jury by trial
should be allowed.
(This is covered by remedy for contempt)
(b) Further, that agreements or combinations
to do or not to do an act in any trade
dispute should not be deemed criminal if
such an act would not be punished as a
crime if done by one.
( r) Herein, also, such agreements shall
not be considered in restraint of
trade.
(2) Nor shall injunctions or restraining
orders issue in relation thereto.
