Schneider v. State, 308 U.S. 147 (1939)

https://supreme.justia.com/cases/federal/us/308/147/case.html
Enjoying this WWII era case, very similar to Watchtower v. Stratton.
Upheld right to jehovah's witness woman minister to go door to door with pamphlets, and 3 similar cases about handbills.

I am currently reading the memoirs of the late Secretary of Commerce Strauss, which covers some of this same time period. Circa this time period Strauss, who got his start as Hoover's private secretary stops being an active partner in Kuhn Loeb, goes into the Navy, becomes admiral in 4 years, before organizing the Atomic Energy Commission. Haven't gotten to the Commerce part yet.
My internet access is sporadic these days so I am turning to books again.
