'tDue Process of Law" In
Use as Far Back as 1925

The phrase due process of law, !"
referring to the regular course OF
legal or judicial proceedings in any
case, appears in the Fifth and
Fourteenth amendments to the fed
eral Constitution. In the first OF
these: mo person shall be deprived
of life, liberty or property without
due process Of law" the limitation
is on acts of congress. In the other
amendment: mo state shall deprive
any person of life, liberty or prop
erty without due process Of law"
the limitation is on the laws Of the
states.
According to Professor Munro's
''The Government Of the United
States" the phrase is an approx
innate equivalent Of ''by the law Of
the land" contained In Magma
Charta.
Daniel Webster's definition Of due
process was ''the process OF law
which hears before it condemns,
which proceeds upon enquiry and
renders judgment only after trial.
The meaning is that every citizen
shall hold his life, liberty, property
and immunities under the protection
of the general rules which govern
society,"" +.
The Supreme court in its inter-
probation of this phrase has, accord
ing to Munro, assumed consider
able censorship over the economic
legislation of congress" The Ok
ford dictionary quotes the use Of
the phrase process Of law a.
early as the year 1925. De
