Constitutional Background Of The Recent Japanese Anti-Alien Land Bill Controversy, Harriette M. Dilla
Michigan Law Review
The recent contention between the Federal Government and the state of California over the anti-alien land measure raised anew the question as to the conflict of state action with treaty stipulations. It is a problem which, under our constitutional system, may arise at any time and demand an individual solution in every instance. The dilemma which has presented itself repeatedly in American history is this: the states have the reserved right to provide for their public welfare and may exercise their police powers even against a foreign country, while to the Federal Government has been delegated the exclusive jurisdiction over …

The Constitutionality of the Webb-Kenyon Act - In the constitutional history of the commerce clause, by virtue of which absolute control of interstate commerce was given to the Federal Government, there is no question which has caused so much difficulty and has resulted in so many unsatisfactory and contradictory. statements of the law as that problem arising through the attempts of many States effectively to enforce prohibition laws. The power over interstate commerce, delegated to the Federal Government, and the police power, reserved to the States, have not seriously conflicted except in this one instance. But the delegation of power …

Marbury V Madison And The Doctrine Of Judical Review, Edward S. Corwin
Michigan Law Review
What is the exact legal basis of the power of the Supreme Court to pass upon the constitutionality of acts of Congress? Recent literature on the subject reveals a considerable variety of opinion. There are radicals who hold that the power owes its existence to an act of sheer usurpation by the Supreme Court itself, in the decision of Marbury v. Madison. There are conservatives who point to clauses of the Constitution which, they assure us, specifically confer the power. There are legists who refuse to go back of Marbury v. Madison, content in the ratification which, they assert, subsequent …

O'Donnell, the so-called Price Maintenance Case, was of vital importance to a large number of manufacturers of patented articles.

Basic Doctrine Of American Constitutional Law, Edward Corwin
Basic Doctrine Of American Constitutional Law, Edward Corwin
Michigan Law Review
The two leading doctrines of American Constitutional Law before the Civil War, affecting state legislative power, were the Doctrine of Vested Rights and the Doctrine of the Police Power. The two doctrines are in a way complementary concepts, inasmuch as they represent the reaction upon each other of the earlier conflicting theories of natural rights and legislative sovereignty. But the older doctrine is the, doctrine of vested rights, which may be said to have flourished before the rise of the Jacksonian Democracy. Furthermore, if Constitutional Law be regarded from the point of view of its main purpose, namely, that of …

Interstate Commerce and State Control Over Foreign Corporations - Since Bank of Augusta v. Earle, 13 Pet. 519, there seems to have been no real occasion to doubt the power of a state totally to exclude foreign corporations seeking to engage in intrastate business only. The power to exclude being absolute, there has been no question as to the right of the state to allow the entrance of the foreign corporation for such business upon terms, and the terms may be of any sort, reasonable or unreasonable, except that the corporation seeking to enter cannot as a condition precedent to …
