cases OF Carlos Armstrong and of Samuel
B. Downcs. In both cases the briefs rep
resent the parties opposing the conten-
tons of the Government.

preme Court from tic Court of Claims.
Armstrong is a British subject doing bus
mess in Ponce, Porto Rico. and he sues
to recover tariff duties collected on goods
imported into Porto Rico from New York,
Philadelphia and Baltimore. The Court
OF Claims decided against him, and he
appeals from the decision.

John G. Clancy on behalf of Mr.. Arm
strong. The plea is made in the brief
that the collection of duties was in the
circumstances a violation of the Consti-
tuition OF the United States, as by the
terms of the Paris treaty the Island OF
Porto Rico became d portion of the
United States.
The brief in the pownes case was filed
by r. Z. Coudert. Jr- In this case excep-
ton is taken to the imposition OF duties on
goods imported into the United States
from Porto Rico. Mr., Coudert says;

MIR. Coudert also suggests the possible
ity of an amendment to the Constitution.
