What follows is an opinion from the Supreme Court of the United States. Your task is to determine the bases on which the Supreme Court rested its decision with regard to the legal provision that the Court considered in the case. Consider "judicial review (national level)" if the majority determined the constitutionality of some action taken by some unit or official of the federal government, including an interstate compact. Consider "judicial review (state level)" if the majority determined the constitutionality of some action taken by some unit or official of a state or local government. Consider "statutory construction" for cases where the majority interpret a federal statute, treaty, or court rule; if the Court interprets a federal statute governing the powers or jurisdiction of a federal court; if the Court construes a state law as incompatible with a federal law; or if an administrative official interprets a federal statute. Do not consider "statutory construction" where an administrative agency or official acts "pursuant to" a statute, unless the Court interprets the statute to determine if administrative action is proper. Consider "interpretation of administrative regulation or rule, or executive order" if the majority treats federal administrative action in arriving at its decision.Consider "diversity jurisdiction" if the majority said in approximately so many words that under its diversity jurisdiction it is interpreting state law. Consider "federal common law" if the majority indicate that it used a judge-made "doctrine" or "rule; if the Court without more merely specifies the disposition the Court has made of the case and cites one or more of its own previously decided cases unless the citation is qualified by the word "see."; if the case concerns admiralty or maritime law, or some other aspect of the law of nations other than a treaty; if the case concerns the retroactive application of a constitutional provision or a previous decision of the Court; if the case concerns an exclusionary rule, the harmless error rule (though not the statute), the abstention doctrine, comity, res judicata, or collateral estoppel; or if the case concerns a "rule" or "doctrine" that is not specified as related to or connected with a constitutional or statutory provision. Consider "Supreme Court supervision of lower federal or state courts or original jurisdiction" otherwise (i.e., the residual code); for issues pertaining to non-statutorily based Judicial Power topics; for cases arising under the Court's original jurisdiction; in cases in which the Court denied or dismissed the petition for review or where the decision of a lower court is affirmed by a tie vote; or in workers' compensation litigation involving statutory interpretation and, in addition, a discussion of jury determination and/or the sufficiency of the evidence.

Opinion:
PATTERSON, GENERAL ADMINISTRATOR, et al. v. UNITED STATES.
No. 429.
Argued April 21, 1959.
Decided May 18, 1959.
Jacob Bassner argued the cause and filed a brief for petitioners.
.Leavenworth Colby argfied the cause for the United 'States. With him on the brief were Solicitor General Rankin, Assistant Attorney General Doub, Samuel D. Slade and Seymour Farber. ■
Per Curiam.
Petitioners, Melvin-. A. Hays, Sterling E. Duncan, and Leonard L. Sullivan, were injured in the course of their employment with the United States while aboard vessels operated by the Government and engaged in merchant service. Petitioner Patterson is the administrator of the estate of Edgar A. Doody, Jr., who died as the result of injuries sustained by him while he was similarly employed. Each- of the petitioners filed a libel in personam against the United States under the Suits in Admiralty, Act, 41 Stat. 525 et seq., 46 U. S. C. § 741 et seq. The Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit affirmed dismissal of the libels on the ground that petitioners’ exclusive remedy was under the Federal Employees’ Compensation Act, 39 Stat. 742 et seq., 5 U. S. C. § 751 et seq., 258 F. 2d 702. We granted certiorari, 358 U. S. 898, to resolve a conflict between the decision below and that of the Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit in Inland Waterways Corp. v. Doyle, 204 F. 2d 874.
In Johansen v. United States, 343 U. S. 427, 441, the Coúrt held “that the Federal Employees Compensation Act is the exclusive remedy for civilian . . .” employees of the United States on government vessels engaged in public servile and that the United States was therefore not liable to such employees under the Public Vessels Act. 43 Stat. 1112 et seq., 46 U. S. C. § 781 et seq. The considerations which led to that conclusion are equally applicable to cases where the government vessel is engaged in merchant service. The United States “has established by the Compensation Act a method of redress for its employees. There is no reason to have two systems of redress.” 343 U. S., at 439.
The major portion of petitioners’ argument, however, is addressed to the proposition that Johansen was incorrectly decided and that we should avail ourselves of this opportunity to reconsider it. We decline to do so. No arguments are presented by petitioners which were not fully considered in Johansen and rejected. “[W]hen the questions are of statutory construction, not of constitutional import, Congress can rectify our mistake, if such it was, or change its policy at any time, and in these circumstances reversal is not readily to be made.” United States v. South Buffalo R. Co., 333 U. S. 771, 774-775. If civilian seamen employed by the Government are to be accorded rights different from or greater than those which they enjoy under the Compensation Act, it is for Congress to provide them.
Accordingly,, the judgments of dismissal entered against petitioners Hays, Duncan, Sullivan, and Patterson are affirmed. We also affirm dismissal of the libel filed by petitioner Vallebupna, who has conceded that he . could prevail only if Johansen were overruled.
Affirmed.
Mr. JtrsTiCE Black and Mr. Justice Douglas dissent.
It is worthy of note that in Johansen -the Court expressly disapproved the decision in United States v. Marine, 155 F. 2d 456, in which a civilian employee of the Government was awarded damages under the Suits in Admiralty Act for injuries sustained by him while aboard a vessel operated by the United States in the merchant service.
The Clarification Act of' 1943, 57 Stat. 45, 50 U. S. C. App. § 1291, indicates that Congress has chosen with care the remedies which it has made available to civilian. seamen employed by the United States. That legislation provided that “offieérs and members of crews . . . employed on United States or foreign flag vessels as employees of the United States .through the War Shipping Administration, . . .'because of the temporary wartime character of their employment by the War Shipping Administration, shall not be considered as .officers or employees of the United States for the purposes of the United States Employees Compensation Act, as amended _
