New Y ork, Nov. 2S.--Dr. S. Hatta,

"Japan's greatest handicap is in tho

Of his language and read any Of it's

Section of the first Article of the Con-
stitution of the United States which de-
clares: That no state shall pass any
law impairing the obligation of con-
tracts" 1t was attacked i'll the ccle-
brated case of Blair, ETC., VS.. Williams
in which Judge Boyle, Chief Justice of
the Kentucky Court of Appeals, later
rendered the opinion, which may be
found i'll Fourth Litteil, page "a. That
opinion discloses that on the 18th day OF
November, 1919, Blair, Ingles, and Barr
executed their joint promissory note TO
Williams for debt, payable sixty days
after date. The money not being paid
when it came due, Williams, some time
thereafter, brought suit upon the note in
the Bourbon Circuit Court, aud recov-
cred Judgment for the amount of the
debt against Blair, Ingles AMI Barr,
and, in accordance to the provisions of
the act of the Legislature in question
entered into q recogEizance in the

money at the end of two years This re-
Icognizance Williams moved the court to

Circuit Judge. so held and accordingly
quashed the recosnizance. 1t is la
menta BILE fact that for this judicial act,
this incorruptible Judge was shamefully
traduced.
The relief party promptly appealed the
case to the Court of Appeals. That
court was then composed of three Judges,

tice, was appointed to the bench April /,

Benjamin Mills. the other Judges, were
appointed to the bench April, 1912, and
February, 1920, respectively. 1t now
became the duty of these three eminent
Judges to settle this litigation, and the
eyes of the whole State were focused up
on them. All three Judges were men of
great ability, hrmness and courage, and
all this is amply attested by the manner
i'll which they disposed of the legal con-
troversy, and afterward fought for and
won, vindica,ion Of their position be-
fore their people. 1t is useless to say
that the Court of Appeals affirmed the
lower court and in AN opinion. aflame
with wisdom and logic, declared the act
in question unconstitutional and void.
The State had been in q condition Of
unrest while the higher court considered
this case. The great popular majority
at that time favored the so called relief
laws, and denied the power of the courts

EARLY HISTORY
Of KENTUCKY

Interesting Paper Read

BY JUDGE B. J. BETHURUM

The following interesting paper
by Judge b. Bethurum, of Som
erset, dealing with time in Ken.
tucky's history when the State
was in turmoil over an act of the
Legislature extending the time
for stay of collection by replevin
from one to two years, was read
by Judge Bethurum at a meeting
of Circuit Judges of the State
held recently in Louisville.
Mount Vernon signal. (Mt. Vernon, Ky.) 18??-current, 1918-02-01
The article was IS follows

The subject of this address per-
haps may not impress the judges
as being wholly appropriate for
discussion on an occasion Of this
sort. At first l doubted it, but
after maturer consideration, all
doubt was removed from my
mind, and now 1 consider the
stirring incidents connected with
the cod and New Court Contro
versy." which happened nearly
100 years ago, to be the most in
teresting as well as the most
thrilling, of any past events con-
nected with the history Of the
Commonwealth, with the posi-
bic exception or those immedi-
ately associated with the Civil
War. 1t is therefore, a theme
that should appeal to everyone
interested in court procedure,
and the past history of the
State.
In order that the cause of this
most unfortunate judicial tangle
may be fully understood, it will
be necessary, before entering iu-
to the discussion proper, to re
view briefly the financial and pc
litical history of Kentucky prior
to and at the time the controversy
arose.
In the years of 1SI7-rS, the
people of the State found them,
selves tace to face with grave
financial embarrassment. In fact
the State itself was reeling and
staggering under a heavy load
of Indebtedness, which it had
unwisely assumed. These con-
ditions resulted from au unfor-
tunate Imitation of the paper cur
rency in use at that time. and
from unwise banking legislation
all of which tended to force the
withdrawal of the precious met.
ais from circulation. This fur
ry in finances had a depressing
effect upon business and COM
merce, and in very short while
the individual citizen found him
self confronted with disaster. In
order to obtain relief as quickly
as possible, the people made an
earnest appeal to the Legislature,
which promptly responded by
passing, at the I8Ie-2o session,
laws extending the time for re.
plevy of judgment debt from
three to twelve months. and later,
in obedience to greater pressure
by distressed people, extended
the time for stay of collection
by replevy from one to two years
and this applies to debts created
both before and after the passage
of the act.
The enactment of this law great
ly displeased the creditor class
of Kentucky, and very soon theil
opposition began to crystalize in
to definite form. They appealed
to the courts for redress, and al
the same time organized to ere
ate sentiment against the Law
among the masses of the people
The discussions in court and OF
the stump were both heated anc
acrimonious. The ordinary anne nj
ties among gentleman were for
gotten, and the State was soor
dashed into fury. Politics of tn,
