Government moves to strike answer in Hawk's Nest case
The United States filed a federal court motion to strike Electro Metallurgical's answer and force licensing for a power plant on the New River at Hawk's Nest. It argues the New River is navigable and the plant uses river flow, requiring a federal license, contending the company's answer is contradictory and ambiguous.

U S Insurance Case Nearing Completion in Federal Court Here
Wilbur T. Taylor, a World War veteran from Stason County, sues the United States government on a war risk insurance policy for 10 000. Arguments concluded last night in a federal night session. The case rests on Taylor’s claim for full face value for wounds from high explosive shell fragments suffered during the Argonne offensive in October 1915. Government witnesses contend Taylor has been gainfully employed since the policy's last payment in April 1918.

Finney and Vickers Fail to Block Writ in Prohibition Case
In a heated proceeding Judge Hudson rejected defense claims that a writ could be blocked on constitutional grounds. Attorneys Kay and Matheny battled over enforcement costs and a 25 percent fee, arguing the statute creates an incentive for justices of the peace to issue warrants and impinges on due process. The demurrers by all parties were overruled and the case awaits a final circuit court ruling with possible appeal to the state supreme court.
