Disgraced Steel Chief William Corey Pays Wife 3 Million
William E. Corey, president of United States Steel, is reported to have given his estranged wife three million dollars in securities as alimony and for desertion rather than alleged intimate liaisons. Mrs Corey gains custody of their seventeen year old son Allan. A Corey sister criticized New York elites as unsuited to uplift a youth, labeling wealthy New York men as derelict influences.

Judge Parker on Congestion of Law at National Bar Meet
Judge Alton B. Parker urged the National Bar Association that over legislation is weakening law. He warned about 25 000 pages of new statutes yearly and said most proposed laws reuse police power and alter old structures rather than create new principles. He argued lawmakers should study settled jurisprudence to improve quality over quantity and curb abuse by unqualified actors.

A historical passage argues for federal reclamation work to expand farms and towns around strong communities bound by a Union.
