| It is hoped that this Review may be of service to the law students, the law teachers, the members of the bar, and to the judges upon the bench, and, through them, to the people of the state. As a supplement to the routine daily class work of the School, it will afford to the second and third year students, a means of intensive training in legal writing. To them, the independent experience . . . in the analysis, investigation and critical discussion of current problems in North Carolina law will be invaluable. As the Review goes into volumes year by year, it will constitute a collection of reference materials on the local law, of definite value as collateral readings in connection with class discussion. To the faculty of the School, the Review will be an added incentive to systematic research in the state law and a medium for the publication of the results achieved. To the members of the bar and the judges upon the bench, the Review will make available, in the form of leading articles, editorial notes and comments, discussions of important legal problems, statements of the significance of outstanding recent state and federal decisions, and historical accounts of the development of distinctive topics and doctrines of North Carolina law. In other words, the Review will carry to the active members of the legal profession, the work the School is doing in tracing the development of law in North Carolina and in the country at large.
