The Honourable W.R. Jackett has contributed an essay on the foundations of Canadian law in history and theory, E.A. Driedger writes on the Canadian Bill of Rights, E.A. Tollefson’s tpic is freedom of the Press, and B.L. Strayer’s essay is on Crown immunity and the power of judicial review.

Blair, of the dilemma posed by the questions of combines, and a suggestion for a solution to labour problems, contributed by the editor.
