  • Memorial Minute in Memory of Wechsler
    430 • 2000 PROCEEDINGS The Memorial Minute in memory of Herbert Wechsler was read by Chair of the Council Roswell B. Perkins. Herbert Wechsler December 4, 1909 - April 26, 2000 Out of the nine decades of the life of Herbert Wechsler, 46 years were ones of membership in The American Law Institute and 21 years were ones of extraordinary service as the third Director of the Institute. It is unlikely that the magnificence of his contributions to the Institute will ever be surpassed. In his oral interview with Paul Wolkin in 1989, Herb said (and I cannot refrain from calling him Herb in spite of the formality of this biographical memorial): I remember it took quite a lot of courage on my part, after I'd been a Reporter for a couple of years, to ask Judge Goodrich if he'd either propose me or get me proposed as a member. He looked at me with astonishment and said, "You mean you're not a member?" Of course Judge Goodrich, Herb's predecessor as Director, promptly remedied this institutional oversight in the same year, 1954. Herb's choice of a career in service of the law was attributable in part to the fact of his being the son of a lawyer, Samuel Wechsler. Herb was born in New York City, brought up in Manhattan, and entered City College of New York at the age of 15, graduating in 1928 with a degree in French. In a dialogue recorded in the Columbia Oral History Project, conducted between 1978 and 1982, Herb gave us this vignette of his col­ lege days: I was not only apolitical, but rather anti-political in col­ lege.

Nonetheless, there remains an enormous diversity among the fifty-two American penal codes, including some that have never adopted a modern code format or structure. Yet, even within the minority of states without a modern code, the Model Penal Code has great influence, as courts regularly relyupon it to fashionthe law that the state'scriminal code failsto provide.

The complete quote is as follows: A novel is a mirror carried along a high road. At one moment it reflects to your vision the azure skies[,] at another the mire of the puddles at your feet. And the man who carries this mirror in his pack will be accused by you of being immoral! His mirror shews the mire, and you blame the mirror! Rather blame that high road upon which the puddle lies, still more the inspector of roads who allows the water to gather and the puddle to form. Id. Stendhal’s words seem as appropriate for the Restatements as for the novel—we should neither credit nor blame the mirror (the Restatements and the novel, respectively) for the beauty or the flaws in the original (the law and the reality echoed in the novel, respectively). ** Professor and 2004-2006 Leroy Highbaugh, Sr. Chair in Faculty Research, Stetson University College of Law.

BOOK REVIEWS BEqJAain N. CAnnozo, A=RIcAN JUDGE. By George S. Hellman. (Illustrated). New York: Whittlesley House-McGraw-Hill Book Co., Inc. 1940. $3.50. We now have the eagerly awaited biography of Justice Benjamin N. Cardozo. It is written by one who is not a lawyer. Mr. George S. Hellman, the author, is a man of letters, a biographer who wrote "Washington Irving, Esquire", "The True Stevenson" and a number of other books. This is not a great biography like Harvey Cushing's "Life of Sir William Osler"; the vitalizing spark is not there. But, within the limits set by the biographer himself, it is an interesting portrayal of the human side of a great judge, a fine spirit, to whom our love and our veneration went out. "The primary purpose of this biography", the author says, "has been to portray a personality. The philosopher and the judge have, of course, been kept in mind but it was the lovable man who, foremost, has invited attention." Himself a friend of Justice Cardozo and of his family, the author has drawn on his personal recollections as well as the recollections and estimates of the Justice's family, his friends and acquaintances.
