The Applicant’S Misrepresentation Annotated, Theodore J. Fraizer

Nebraska Law Review

Controversies arising out of representations made by applicants for sickness, accident, or hospital insurance have been a fertile source of litigation in recent years. Because of the ever-increasing amount of such coverage being written, it has become essential that the practicing attorney have at least a general acquaintance with the problems which may be encountered. The purpose of this article is to point up certain phases of the problem which have been troublesome, with particular emphasis on recent case law.

Trial Practice—Motion For New Trial—What May A Succeeding Judge Consider In Ruling On Motion Made Before His Predecessor, William H. Hein

Nebraska Law Review

In an action against the manufacturer for damages caused by a defect in an automobile, the jury returned a verdict for the plaintiff in the amount of $50,000, whereupon the trial judge stated, “Members of the jury, I am astounded. It is my opinion that that is clearly against the weight of the evidence in this case.” A motion for a new trial was made by the defendant, but the trial judge died before it could be heard by him. Subsequently, the motion was assigned to another judge of the district court who denied the motion on the ground that …

Radioactivity Of Sm153 And Eu155, M. R. Lee, Robert Katz

Robert Katz Publications

The radiations from Sm¹⁵³ and Eu¹⁵⁵ have been studied by means of a 180-degree, magnetic-focusing, variable-field beta-ray spectrometer-spectrograph using enriched materials. In the disintegration of 47.0-hr Sm¹⁵³, conversion electrons of three gamma rays of energy, 0.0691, 0.1027, 0.548 Mev, and three beta-ray spectra whose end-point energy and relative intensity were 0.255 Mev, 9 percent; 0.685 Mev, 70 percent; 0.795 Mev, 21 percent, respectively, were observed. A fourth beta-ray spectrum of end-point energy 0.62 Mev and intensity less than 6 percent is postulated. A decay scheme in good agreement with these data and with nuclear shell theory …

Fat Separation In Evaporated Milk. Iii. Gravity Separation And Heat Stability, R. B. Maxcy, H. H. Sommer

Department of Food Science and Technology: Faculty Publications

Fat separation is a continuous problem in the production, handling, and storage of evaporated milk. This defect becomes most objectionable during prolonged quiescent storage at high temperatures. The butterfat rises to the upper surface forming a viscous, leathery layer, which may prevent pouring of the milk from a relatively small opening.
To retard fat separation, the manufacturer attempts to obtain effective homogenization and sufficient coagulation of the proteins during sterilization to give the product a high viscosity or "heavy body" (1, 12, 14). These practical applications are aimed at three fundamental considerations: a reduction in the size of the fat …

Fat Separation In Evaporated Milk I. Homogenization, Separation, And Viscosity Tests, R. B. Maxcy, H. H. Sommer

Department of Food Science and Technology: Faculty Publications

The rising of fat in evaporated milk on prolonged storage will inevitably occur since the density of the fat particles is lower than that of the concentrated milk plasma in which they are suspended. It has been shown that the velocity of rise of individual fat globules in milk plasma is in good agreement with the velocity as predicated by Stokes' law (5). Troy and Sharp (7) also found the velocity of rise of globule clusters in general agreement with this law. Their observations on clusters were less precise, however, because of inherent complications arising from the irregularities in the …

The Bricker Amendment In Canada . . . A Rose-Coloured Optical Illusion, Thomas Franck

Nebraska Law Review

It is not infrequently pointed out by the advocates of constitutional amendments restricting the treaty powers that just such restrictions as are envisioned by the Bricker Resolution are, in fact, already the law in Canada, and that the Dominion has not only managed to “get along”—but has actually moved forward with great speed in terms of international importance.

The Canadian arrangement is frequently eulogized by the advocates of amendment as a model of constitutional horse-sense and practicality. Such damning praise is richly undeserved. The resemblances which appear to link the Canadian treaty powers and the Bricker Amendment are neither all …

Accounting Procedures And Methods Under The 1954 Internal Revenue Code, Philip G. Johnson

Nebraska Law Review

Differences between tax accounting rules and generally accepted accounting principles have been a source of irritation to accountants, lawyers, and business men generally. Although the regulations interpreting the Internal Revenue laws have long asserted that, “approved standard methods of accounting will generally be regarded as clearly reflecting the income,” court decisions and rulings have undermined the broad principles in the regulations.

The principle area where the rules of tax accounting differed from generally accepted accounting principles was found in the rules applicable to the timing of transactions. They were confined principally to questions of when income should be recognized and …

Evidence—Directed Verdicts—Inferences From Circumstantial Evidence, Robert Berkshire

Nebraska Law Review

In Nebraska a directed verdicts based on circumstantial evidence leading to an inference presents a difficult problem. Even the Supreme Court of the United States has hedged when called upon to formulate a rule to help guide trial judges in federal courts when they are considering what degree of circumstantial evidence is needed to allow a case to go to the jury. The court stated “. . . the essential requirement is that mere speculation be not allowed to do duty for probative facts, after making due allowance for all reasonably possible inferences favoring the party whose case is attacked.” …

Torts—Proximate Cause—Superseding Cause, Marvin L. Holscher

Nebraska Law Review

Three defendants, the Standard Oil Company, Parker, their lessee, and Powell, a contractor, negligently removed an underground storage tank and allowed a large quantity of gasoline to spill and flow on a city street. The fire department was summoned. After the street had been washed, a fireman at the direction of the fire chief touched a lighter to the street to test the effectiveness of the washing. The resulting fire damaged plaintiff’s automobile. The trial court held Standard, Parker, Powell, the fireman, and the fire chief liable. Upon appeal by defendants Standard, Parker, and Powell to the Supreme Court of …

Trial — Nature Of Rebuttal Evidence Admissible In Nebraska, Charles J. Burmeister

Nebraska Law Review

Arthur Vanderbilt once stated that "the right to a fair trial in both civil and criminal cases" is "the most fundamental right of all." No matter how just the rules of substantive law may be, the interests of justice might often be thwarted if there were no procedural rules controlling presentation of evidence at trial; and it is with this in mind that certain procedural limitations have been placed upon the introduction of rebuttal evidence. If the plaintiff could withhold certain shreds of evidence or testimony until the last possible moment, the resulting surprise and dramatic effect upon the jury …

Free Energy And Entropy Of Translation Tables, Paul W. Gilles, Gordon A. Gallup

Gordon Gallup Publications

In the statistical calculation of the thermodynamic properties of ideal gases the translational contribution is calculated from the Sackur-Tetrode equation, S = R1n (2π MkT)^3/2 ÷ (h³ N^5/2) V + 5/2 R in which S is the entropy of one mole of a gas of molecular weight M, at absolute temperature T, and volume V expressed in cubic centimeters; k is Boltzmann's constant; h is Planck's constant; N is Avogadro's number; and R is the molal gas constant expressed in the same units as those desired for S, usually cal deg¹ mole¹.

Studies In Quantitative Paleontology. Iii. An Application Of Sequential Analysis To The Comparison Of Growth Stages And Growth Series, Benjamin H. Burma

Department of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences: Faculty Publications

Detailed directions for carrying out a comparison of characters of fossils by a sequential analysis are given. The method is adapted to comparison at a single growth stage and to the comparison of growth series. The method has the advantage of, in general, requiring fewer specimens than the classical methods of comparison.
