Pittsburg, Greece, and Law: A Tumultuous Autumn in 1924
The article reviews late 1924 events from October through November, including the Pittsburgh Pirates clinching the 1925 World Series title after a seven game series, geopolitical tensions in Europe with Greece and Bulgaria, the League of Nations actions, French domestic strife and Syria, and political reshuffles in France. It notes U.S. tax debates and a lament on a Rhinelander divorce, then delves into public opinion's role in law, arguing laws derive their force from majority support and that laws lacking it should be voted on by the people.
