The Harvard Law Review will embark on its forty-third year of publication with its November issue. Sir William Searle Holesworth. Vinerian Professor of English Law at All Souls' College. Oxford, Erwin N. Griswold of the Ohio Bar Association. Professor Felix Frankfurter, LLB. '06, and James M. Sandis are among the contributors to the first number.

Sir William Holesworth, who is the author of the "History of English Law" has written an essay on "Blackstone's Treatment of Equity". Blackstone was the first to hold the Vinerian professorship which Holesworth now holds. Famous for his "Commentaries". Blackstone exerted a powerful influence on American law at a time when law books were exceedingly scarce in this country. The "Commentaries" consist chiefly of the material which the author used for his lectures and, similarly. Holesworth's article contains material from these lectures.

Griswold Former Editor

Griswold, who edited the Review two years ago, has written an article on "Reaching the Interest of the Beneficiary of the Spend-thrift Trust" while Professors Frankfurter and Sandis have joined in an essay on "The Business of the Supreme Court in the October term, 1928". These men have written a book called "Business of the Supreme Court", to which the essay adds further information.

The continuation of a series of studies of the annual practical workings of the Supreme Court, the essay analyzes the number of cases which come before the Supreme Court and how they are decided. It is an attempt to provide a regular systematic statistical analysis of the work of the Court, which can be reformed only by such methods as will provide concrete suggestions for this reform.
