Corporations - Dividends - New Jersey Dividend Credit For Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock, John A. Beach S.Ed.
Michigan Law Review
Defendant, a New Jersey corporation, paid no dividends on its non-cumulative preferred stock after 1933, although it had annual earnings exceeding the total amount of the preference in each of the years 1941 through 1948, and again in 1951 and 1952. In 1955 defendant had earned surplus exceeding $12,000,000.

Constitutional Law -- 1956 Tennessee Survey, Paul H. Sanders
Vanderbilt Law Review
Several major constitutional problems were presented to the Tennessee Supreme Court during the survey year. There were no startling developments in the court's disposition of these cases, nor in the opinions proclaimed in each instance. The court avoided what it termed a "spectacular exhibition of judicial sophistry" in giving constitutional approval to certain activities of a religious nature in the public schools. In the regulation of economic affairs the court found no valid basis for a statute prohibiting the offering of benefits or premiums in connection with the sale of gasoline. Basic allocations of governmental power were involved in a …

Procedures For Meetings And Organizations, Innis Christie
Procedures For Meetings And Organizations, Innis Christie
Dalhousie Law Journal
Why would an academic psychologist and an academic engineer write a book about "how to set up organizations" and run their meetings? The authors do not answer that question in their preface so we are free to speculate that this is their escape from the "meeting madness" that threatens every academic. They have attempted not only to bring some order into that omnipresent aspect of their own lives but also to share the fruits of their efforts with the rest of us in this very fine handbook.

Municipal Corporations - Police Power - Delegation Of Power To Patrol Highways To Private Corporation, George Kircos
Michigan Law Review
Defendant was stopped for speeding in Comstock Township, Michigan, and given a "violation ticket". by an employee of Charles Services, Inc., a private corporation which patrolled the highway under an arrangement with the township. At the trial defendant objected to the admission of evidence establishing him as the driver of the speeding vehicle on the ground that it was obtained by one not authorized by law to arrest him. On appeal from conviction, held, affirmed. Evidence obtained by the employee of Charles Services, Inc., is admissible because defendant did not sustain the burden of proving that the employee was …

Municipal Corporations - Tort Liability - Duty To Protect Police Informer, Cyril Moscow
Michigan Law Review
Decedent furnished information leading to the arrest of the notorious "Willie the Actor" Sutton.

Municipal Corporations-Zoning-Validity Of Ordinances Excluding Residences From Industrial Areas, Judson M. Werbelow S.Ed.
Michigan Law Review
Plaintiff purchased undeveloped land located in defendant municipality, intending to construct dwelling houses thereon. At the time of plaintiff's purchase, the land was zoned for industrial use, but the applicable ordinance did permit use of the land for residential as well as industrial purposes. Defendant municipality, a town of about 9,000 persons, had experienced a minimum of industrial growth and the possibility of future industrial development was slight. Shortly after the plaintiff had made his purchase, defendant municipality amended the applicable zoning ordinance to prohibit the use of plaintiff's land for residential purposes. However, the ordinance did permit the presence …

Forward: Symposium On State Sales Tax, Charles F. Conlon
Vanderbilt Law Review
One of the most remarkable developments in state finance is the rapidity with which the retail sales tax has become the most important fixture in the revenue system. Practically unknown a quarter century ago, by five years later in 1935 the tax yielded $284 million, slightly less than 13 per cent of state tax collections --unemployment compensation taxes aside. Last year, state sales tax revenues amounted to $2.6 billion, or about 23 per cent of state tax collections. For the future the prospect is that sooner or later all but a few, if indeed not all the states, will be …
