1939?[edit]

This was categorized in "1939 in law", but I don't think it belongs there, since the case was presented in 1943. I will recategorize it. --Cromwellt|talk|contribs 14:33, 29 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

New Edits Surrounding Citations and Credible Sources[edit]

Hello! I plan on adding formal sources for this case, and expanding on some of the information that is already in the article. This speific link is where I plan on getting a lot of the information. It's my most solid source so far. https://supreme.justia.com/cases/federal/us/319/141/case.html IFSLauren (talk) 04:46, 26 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
