Bill to shift Supreme Court duties to Commerce Court
A House bill by Representative Broussard seeks to enlarge the Commerce Court to take over appellate work from the Supreme Court. The measure would divert appeals from Porto Rico, the Philippines, and the Canal Zone to the Commerce Court, retaining only certiorari to the Supreme Court for those cases. Bankruptcy appellate jurisdiction would also move to the Commerce Court, with certiorari reserved.

Duty on print paper from Canada agitated by publishers
Washington reports that an amendment to restore a retaliatory duty on Canadian print paper was discussed by the Senate Finance Committee. John Norris of the American Newspaper Publishers Association opposed any countervailing duty, arguing it would provoke Canada and harm U.S. paper makers. The proposal would tie duties to any export charges by Canada and related jurisdictions, and authorities urged reasonable dealings over pulp wood and paper controls.
