TORRENSL LAW NOW
/, UP TO HIGH COURT
Constitutionality of Act Is Be-
ing Argued Before Judges
at Knoxville.

KNOXVILLE, Tenn, Oct. 16. (Spl.)-
The constitutionality OF the Torrens
land registration act is being tested in
the supreme court Of Tennessee here.
Arguments in the caseSt the state, e3
rel W. X. Mcclure, VS.. James H. Cope
land, register, were heard before that
tribunal Wednesday afternoon.
This act provides that land owners
Who so desire may go into chancery
court and have a Torrens title decreed
Tor their property. Such title, 1t Is
claimed, is very simple, and can be
easily traced down when seeking to
sell or TO secure loans on it. All trans
actions concerning any particular tract
OF n must be recorded or registered
on the same page in the registers Of
flee, it is explained.
A decd was presented to Mr.. Cope
land for registration under this act,
and he declined to register it, claiming
that the Torrens act was ~unconstitu-
tional. A mandamus suit was brought
against him in chancery court, SEEKING
to force him to enter the deed under
the new system. He appealed to the
supreme court, with the result that the
case Is now pending before that
tribunal.
County Attorney ]. G. johnson at
tackled the constitutionality of the act
m the grounds that land could be
taken under that act without what he
termed as due process of law. He said
that when any. or all, Of the claimants
of any title are not known by a person
who seeks to obtain a Torrens title TO
any piece Of land that publication may
be made ito whom 1t may concern
He claimed that this Is not a suffi-
cienNy definite publication. Mr.. John
son also alleged that a person who
might secure title through the practice
of fraud might hold the title unless
action should be brought against him
within n year. In addition to these
allegations, he claimed that the act
calls upon the register to perform jul
| dicial acts.
