Democratic Candidate Seizure Case At Supreme Court
John W. Davis urged the Supreme Court that President Truman exceeded constitutional power in seizing the steel mills during a crisis, arguing Taft-Hartley law should guide action. He contended the president lacked inherent authority and pressed for statutory exhaust before using emergency powers. Davis, a former 1924 Democratic nominee, faced questioning from Justice Frankfurter as the case centers on government powers versus the 80 day seizure provision.
