TWO OF A. A. WILDER
CASES CONTINUE TO
WAIT F0R HEARING

Somewhere arounu circuit court
two cases are waiting patiently tor a
hearing. They have been waiting pa
tiently for several months; in fact
ever since T. B. Stuart left these
shores. They may be doomed to walt
while longer. az
They were TWO Of four cases. The
other two weathered a famous legal
battle in Judge Stuart's court Then
they went to the supreme court be-
cause the plaintiff had won and the
defendants had appealed They are
still in the supreme court, scheduled
to be heard this month But there
really is no supreme court. There
are only two judges. They may not
be heard for some time.
So the two cases that remained in
the lower court are waiting patiently
for a hearing. Some day it may come.
They are important cases. They in

They are the cases brought by A.
