Liquor store writ refused by court in West Virginia case
A Charleston man seeks a mandamus to reopen state liquor stores closed May and held as registration centers for a new ration system. The court will review the matter, with Callinan arguing the system is inequitable and will boost unlawful sales while stores remain shuttered. Other actions include eviction disputes and estate tax questions in Kanawha and Cabell counties.

Justices Split Over Citizenship and Work Week Rulings
The court divided on a 30 year old naturalized citizen linked to Nazi activity and on wage hour rules. Justices Rutledge and Murphy favored treating naturalized citizens as natives and exploring non deportation remedies for disloyalty. Separate decisions debated the scope of the work week under the wage hour act at Mt Clemens Pottery Co, with dissenters Burton and Frankfurter arguing pay should reflect bargaining and whistle to whistle limits. The Illinois redistricting case sought to compel remapping of congressional districts arguing Chicago and Cook County were favored by the 1901 act.
