APPEALS COURT
HOLDS 01 LAW
ID BE INVALID
STATUTE ON MODE OF IN
STRUCTING JURIES IS SET
ASIDE BY DECISION
The Alaska Legislature has no
I authority to enact laws concern-:
ing the mode and manner of in
structing juries in the United
States district courts in the Ter
ritory, and the Act passed to that
end by the Legislature in 1929 is,
[therefore, invalid, declared the
[Circuit Court of Appeals for the
Ninth Circuit in a decision render
led late last month in the case of
Carl Hauptman. et al., taken up
I from Ketchikan, reports the Jun
eau Empire in a recent issue,
j Judge Wilbur and Dietrich con
curred in the opinion while Judge
[Rudkin dissented and in a minor- j

valid for the reason that “a ter- |
ritorial judge is not as free from:
Circulating Heaters at J. L.

the control of a Territorial legis
lature as a United States district
judge from the control of a Sate
legislature.”
CONTROL OF JURIES
The right of the Territory to
legislate on the manner of select
ing grand and petit juries was up

statute covering that subject, if

the majority opnion held. Judge
Deitrieh dissented from that view,
however, saying that where a man
datory requirement of the statute
"is substantially violated, or disre
garded, a party to an action is
without remedy by seasonable chal
lenge to the jurors so unlawfully
selected, or that to succeed he must
affirmatively show prejudice—gen
erally a burden it would be im
possible for him to carry—or that
the appellate court will ignore a
plain violation of the law in the
case merely because actual pre
judice is not affirmatively estab
lished”

Chesterfield offers richness, aroma, satisfying
flavor.
BETTER TASTE — that’s the answer; and
that’s what smokers get in Chesterfield in full
est measure—the flavor and aroma of mellow
tobaccos, exactly blended and cross-blended.
Better taste, and milder too!
