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.

CERTIORARI TO THE CIRCUIT COURT OF APPEALS
FOR THE SEVENTH CIRCUIT
Syllabus
1. In view of the activities of the petitioner in the conduct of its insurance business (described in the opinion), the National Labor Relation Board was justified in concluding that the practices in which the petitioner was found to be and to have been engaged were, within the meaning of the National Labor Relations Act, unfair labor practices "affecting commerce" which the Board was empowered by the Act to prevent. Pp. 644, 648.
2. The cultural and fraternal aspects of the petitioner’s activities did not except it from the operation of the National Labor Relations Act. P. 648.
3. The application of the National Labor Relations Act to the activities of the petitioner, though in the business of insurance, was a valid exercise of the power of Congress under the commerce clause of the Federal Constitution. P. 649.
136 F.2d 175 affirmed.
Certiorari, 320 U.S. 725, to review a decree granting enforcement of an order (as modified) of the National Labor Relations Board, 42 N.L.R.B. 1375.
