General SummaryThis case is from a collection containing the full text of over 16,000 Supreme Court cases from 1793 to the present. The body of Supreme Court decisions are, effectively, the final interpretation of the Constitution. Only an amendment to the Constitution can permanently overturn an interpretation and this has happened only four times in American history.

Syllabus
A railway employee, while occupied in oiling an electric motor which is used for hoisting coal into a chute, to be thence taken and used by locomotives principally employed in moving interstate freight, is not engaged in interstate transportation, or in work so closely related to it as to be practically a part of it, and therefore an injury suffered by him while so occupied is not within the Federal Employers’ Liability Act. Chicago, B. & Q. R. Co. v. Harrington, 241 U.S. 177, and Chicago & N.W. Ry. Co. v. Bolle, ante, p. 74, followed. Erie R. Co. v. Collins, 253 U.S. 77, and Erie R. Co. v. Szary, id.,86, overruled.
Affirmed.
Certiorari, post, p. 599, to review a judgment affirming an award of compensation for personal injuries under a state workmen’s compensation act. The Supreme Court of Illinois declined to review.
