  • The Honourable Horace Harvey, Chief Justice of Alberta
    VOL . XXXII NOVEMBER 1954 No . 9 The Honourable Horace Harvey, Chief Justice of Alberta WILBUR F. BOWKER* Edmonton "Who is going to run this country, the Chief Justice or the Govern- ment?" On July 11th, 1918, an army officer named Major R. B. Eaton put this question to John McCaffary, a deputy sherif. McCaffary had come to Victoria Barracks at Calgary to execute a writ of attachment against Lieutenant-Colonel Philip Moore for declining to obey an order by way of habeas corpus that directed him to bring before the Supreme Court of Alberta twenty con- scripts in his battalion. Colonel Moore had been told by his mili- tary superiors at Ottawa to absent himself and the deputy sheriff had been unable to find him. Major Eaton's rhetorical question was really an accusation that Horace Harvey, Chief Justice of Alberta, was trying to obstruct the Canadian government in its prosecution of the war. This incident requires explanation. In the early years of the First Great War Canada's military forces were raised entirely by voluntary enlistment . By August 1917 the government had decid ed that conscription was necessary and asked Parliament to pass the Military Service Act, which provided for conscription, but exempted persons in essential occupations. By the spring of 1918 *Wilbur Fee Bowker, Q.C., B.A., LL.B. (Alta.), LL.M. (Minnesota), Dean, Faculty of Law, University of Alberta. 934 THE CANADIAN BAR REVIEW [VOL . XXXII it had become apparent that reinforcements were still inadequate . The cabinet could have asked Parliament to ~ mend the Military Service Act by removing the exemptions, but instead in April 1918, while Parliament was in session, the Governor in Council made two orders in council under the War Measures Act, which gives the Governor in Council wide powers to make orders m the inter- est of national safety during war.

  • The Dean Who Went to Law School 1
    THE DEAN WHO WENT TO LAW SCHOOL 1 THE DEAN WHO WENT TO LAW SCHOOL: CROSSING BORDERS AND SEARCHING FOR PURPOSE IN NORTH AMERICAN LEGAL EDUCATION, 1930–1950 ERIC M. ADAMS* This article is about the making of modern legal education in North America. It is a case study of the lives of two law schools, the University of Alberta, Faculty of Law and the University of Minnesota Law School, and their respective deans, Wilbur Bowker and Everett Fraser, in the decades surrounding the Second World War. The article follows Bowker’s unorthodox route to Alberta’s deanship via his graduate training under the experimental “Minnesota Plan” — Fraser’s long-forgotten effort to place public service at the centre of American legal education. In detailing an overlooked moment of transition and soul- searching in North American legal education, this article underlines the personalities, ideologies, circumstances, and practices that combined to forge the still dominant model of university-based legal education across the continent. Highlighting the movement of people and ideas, this study corrects a tendency to understand the history of law schools as the story of single institutions and isolated visionaries. It also reveals the dynamic ways in which law schools absorbed and refracted the period’s ideological and political concerns into teaching practices and institutional arrangements. In bold experiment and innate conservatism, personal ambition and institutional constraints, and, above all else, faith in the power of law and lawyers, the postwar law school was born.
