State Denial Of Rights Prompts Missouri Appeal To High Court
Missouri moves to appeal to the United States Supreme Court against a federal district court ruling. The case challenges a 1907 Missouri law forbidding foreign corporations from transferring to federal courts any suits brought against them in state courts, with charter forfeiture as penalty. The court’s dispute centers on supremacy of federal over state authority in regulating corporations and interstate commerce.

The Italian government asserts the Vatican buildings and their art are inalienable state property, not papal. A 19th century telegram cited by Crispi states the Vatican’s art and libraries must remain under Italian control, with revenues and maintenance funded by the state.
