Attorney General Newton brought ac- tion to compel payment by the bank and upon that issue the case went be- fore the states highest court at an ex- traordinary session called by Governor Miller.
 Louis Marshall Speaks
 Louis Marshall. attorney for the bank. contended that the bonus legis- lation was void because it was violatve of a constitutional provision prohibit ing the contracting by the state of a debt for a period longer than that of the probable life of the work or object for which the debt is to be contracted, to be determined by general laws"
 The point was also raised that the issue violated a section of the consti- tuition prohibiting the loaning of the credit of the state ito or in aid of any individual, association or corporation !"
 The attorney general defending the constitutionality of the law, argued that the state had inherent power to grant pensions and that this power had not been limited by any constitutional amendments. .. .aa-.
