How later courts describe this case

• bringing of class action tolls statute of limitations for all members of class
• provision of U.N. Charter not self-executing and does not invalidate provision of immigration law
• property within original scope despite preliminary map that did not include property
• “there must be a practical method for combining these small claims, andthe representative action provides that method. The holders of one or two of the debentures in the present action could hardly afford to take the risk of an individual action.”
