Address Of Jess Hawley Delivered Before The Washington State Bar At Walla Walla, June 21, 1930, Jess Hawley

Washington Law Review

In view of the interest of the attorneys of Washington in an involuntary integral State Bar Organization, it may be of interest to recite the history of the Idaho Act. In 1921 the lawyers of Idaho came definitelv to the conclusion that a voluntary Bar Association had been, then was and would always be a shabbv, even though a genteel sort of failure. The next move was to find another type of organization, and casting about they came across the model self-governing Bar Act reported by Judge Goodwin's committee to the American Bar Association after many years of study This, …

President's Address, Edward W. Allen

Washington Law Review

This address should not be compared with the masterpieces of diction and erudition which have preceded it, but should rather be considered in the prosaic nature of a report. Attention is called to the fact that between annual meetings your affairs are conducted by a president, a secretary, and an executive committee consisting.of these officers and five vice-presidents representing the five congressional districts into which the state is divided, also an executive secretary, besides various committees.

A Program Of Growth For Our Bar Association, B. H. Kizer Oct 1929

A Program Of Growth For Our Bar Association, B. H. Kizer

Washington Law Review

Our Washington State Bar Association has now been in existence for forty years. When I look back on the forty annual meetings of this Association, each with its inevitable presidential address, I am all but overwhelmed at the wisdom and the learning that have preceded me. It is well that the science of jurisprudence and the administration of justice should engage our attention from time to time, and I am glad that my predecessors so uniformly kept their addresses to such high themes. However, while we are officers of courts of justice, and engaged as students of jurisprudence, we are …

The Association has at present about 28,000 members, residing throughout all of the United States proper and in Hawaii, China, Porto Rico and the Philippine Islands.

The American Law Institute, Emmett N. Parker

Washington Law Review

At the 1914 meeting of the Association of American Law Schools held at Chicago, some papers were read and discussion had evidencing a conviction on the part of those present that the volume, complexity and uncertainty of the unwritten or common law in the United States had become such that there should be set on foot a movement looking to the establishment of some permanent organization having for its object the clarification of our unwritten or common law by way of restatement in a simplified, direct and orderly form. The World War checked the progress of this movement, though it …


The American Bar Association: Its Organization, History And Achievements, W. Thomas Kemp, Joseph R. Taylor May 1928

The American Bar Association: Its Organization, History And Achievements, W. Thomas Kemp, Joseph R. Taylor

Washington Law Review

The American Bar Association holds its fifty-first annual meeting in Seattle, Washington, July 25, 26, 27, 1928. This is the Semi-Centennial meeting of the Association and special preparations are being made to make the occasion notable, and it is therefore appropriate that the whole bar of Washington who have so courteously invited the National Association to Seattle this year, should know something about the organization, history and achievements of the largest and one of the oldest organizations of lawyers in the world. A considerable portion of the bar of Washington are already members of the National Association, and to them …

With this number the Law Review establishes a new department which will be devoted to the activities of the members of the bench and bar. This will include not only items of large importance such as the work of the State Bar Association, but also items concerning the work of other agencies composed largely of lawyers, e.g., the local bar associations, Prosecuting Attorneys Association, Superior Judges Association, Judicial Council, and similar bodies. It is proposed that there shall appear in this department from time to time legal news of general interest to the bar and comments on such new methods …
