Critical Examination Of Peace Agencies Since 1919, Gilbert Gidel Dec 1931

Critical Examination Of Peace Agencies Since 1919, Gilbert Gidel

West Virginia Law Review

I intend to consider the practical value of the various means aiming at the prevention of war that have been suggested or put into effect since 1919. Why since 19197 I do not think that international law was created in 1919. But, whether one wishes it or not, an effort, unprecedented until now, has been devoted to the study of the technique of peace.

Common Law Pleas And Subsequent Pleadings In West Virginia, Leo Carlin Dec 1931

Common Law Pleas And Subsequent Pleadings In West Virginia, Leo Carlin

West Virginia Law Review

Necessarily, an attempt can be made to deal only with selected details of the subject. The pleadings discussed …

Observations On Last Clear Chance In West Virginia, Robert T. Donley Jun 1931

Observations On Last Clear Chance In West Virginia, Robert T. Donley

West Virginia Law Review

One who undertakes a discussion of the doctrine of last clear chance need make no apologies to those who have had occasion to inquire, even superficially, into the subject. The perfectly bewildering assortment of cases in West Virginia applying the principle indiscriminately under the guise of proximate cause, supervening negligence, or wilful negligence, point to the necessity for an attempt at clarification. It is the purpose of this article to make that attempt, to analyze the reported cases, pointing out those believed to be incorrectly decided, and to submit definite classifications and rules of application tending to produce rational decisions …
