580 Cases
SUPREME COURT
The " Business as Usual" sign hangs once more over the door of the old Senate Chamber in the Capitol where sits the Supreme Court. When the Court adjourned last June it had some 16 cases under advisement and 368 cases on its docket. On Oct. 1 the nine Justices reassembled, to find that 212 more cases had accumulated during the recess--placing a total of 580 cases on the docket. On the first day of the Court's Fall session motions were heard but no arguments and the Court adjourned to pay a formal call on President Coolidge. On the second day the Court turned in earnest to demolishing the great mass of work before it.
