Private Trusts For Indefinite Beneficiaries, George E. Palmer

Michigan Law Review

Recently, in McPhail v. Doulton (In re Baden's Deed Trusts), the House of Lords reached a decision that marks an important change in the English law of trusts which could be important also for American law. It held that there is a single test of validity for private trusts and for powers of appointment where the issue is whether the beneficiaries of the trust or the objects of the power are sufficiently definite, and that this single test is that applicable to powers of appointment. For nearly 170 years, since the decision in Morice v. Bishop of Durham, …

Military And Foreign Affairs Function Rule-Making Under The Apa, Arthur Earl Bonfield

Michigan Law Review

There is an obvious need to conduct our governmental affairs effectively. expeditiously. and inexpensively. No administrative rule-making procedure is acceptable unless it fairly takes account of this consideration. Consequently, procedural requirements that unduly fetter agency action. or frustrate its purposes. are obvious!} unwise. What is needed, therefore. is a system of rule-making that will strike a sensible balance between the need for adequate public participation in that process. and the need for efficient government. In striking that balance. society's interest in involving affected members of the public in administrative rule-making at an early stage is not so slight that it …

Minority Enterprise, Federal Contracting, And The Sba's 8 (A) Program: A New Approach To An Old Problem, Michigan Law Review

Michigan Law Review

In partial response to the problems of the minority businessman, the Small Business Administration (SBA) has developed the 8(a) Program to channel government contracts to businesses owned by disadvantaged persons. This is accomplished through a procedure whereby the SBA contracts with another federal agency to provide that agency with goods or services, and then subcontracts that obligation to a qualified small business on a noncompetitive basis. The withdrawal of these contracts from competitive bidding has recently resulted in the institution of a number of federal court suits alleging inter alia that the 8(a) Program denies to whites the equal protection …

The Concurrent State And Local Regulation Of Marijuana: The Validity Of The Ann Arbor Marijuana Ordinance, Michigan Law Review

Michigan Law Review

The City Council of Ann Arbor, Michigan, has recently amended the City's "marijuana ordinance" so that it prohibits the possession, control, use, giving away, or sale of marijuana, and specifies a five dollar fine as punishment for violations of the ordinance. The State of Michigan has also legislated to prohibit marijuana-related activities, specifying a number of different offenses with penalties ranging as high as four years in prison, or a 2,000 dollar fine, or both. By enacting the ordinance, the City government has minimized the criminal sanctions for an activity it has found essentially benign, pursuant to certain local purposes. …

Strangers In Paradise: Griggs V. Duke Power Co. And The Concept Of Employment Discrimination, Alfred W. Blumrosen

Michigan Law Review

In March 1966, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) negotiated an extensive agreement with the Newport News Shipyard to eliminate employment discrimination. The outcome of these negotiations-which were conducted by the Office of Conciliations which I then headed-was the first major achievement for the EEOC under title Vll of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Following that episode, Ken Holbert, Deputy Chief of Conciliations, and I decided to try to negotiate a model conciliation agreement on the subject of discriminatory employment testing. We knew that many companies had introduced tests in the 1950's and early 1960's when they could no …

The Presidential Monopoly Of Foreign Relations, Raoul Berger

Michigan Law Review

Because of the widespread ramifications of foreign relations, discussion must perforce be confined to presidential executive agreements, and whether the Senate may be excluded from knowledge of, and participation in, negotiations with foreign nations as a part of the treaty-making process. Mention only can be made of the legislative shortcomings which have contributed to the all but total takeover of foreign relations by the President, and of the need for procedural reform in the Senate if its participation is to be effective. Could we view the matter as an original question, that is, were we drafting or amending a Constitution …

Alternatives To Administrative Trial-Type Hearings For Resolving Complex Scientific, Economic, And Social Issues, Barry B. Boyer

Michigan Law Review

Within the current wave of criticism directed at the federal administrative agencies, a traditional theme of administrative law is frequently echoed: agencies have allowed their proceedings to become over-judicialized, and ought to engage in more rule-making to avoid the slow, cumbersome, and repetitious process of case-by- case adjudication. As if to confirm the urgency of these calls for greater use of the rule-making power, examples occasionally surface which suggest that trial-type proceedings may collapse under their own weight and force some agencies to resort to rule-making if they are to accomplish anything at all. Thus, the Interstate Commerce Commission has …

A Close Look At "A Cradle Book", C. Kenneth Boyce

Law Quadrangle (formerly Law Quad Notes)

Gratian's Decretum had been a standard work for nearly three centuries before the invention of printing, and hundreds of copies had been laboriously made in manuscript to serve the needs of lawyers, scholars, and all who were concerned with canon law. Because of it's popularity, the Decretum was among the first books issued by Europe's earliest printing presses. It was printed for the first time in the city of Strassburg by Heinrich Eggestein in 1471. That edition must have sold well, for Eggestein issued the same text again the following year. The University of Michigan Law Library copy is of …

Some Thoughts On Michigan's Copy Of The Argentoratene Gratian, Charles Donahue Jr.

Law Quadrangle (formerly Law Quad Notes)

The five hundredth birthday of anything calls for a celebration. Certainly the five hundredth anniversary of a book as extraordinary as the Michigan Law Library's copy of the Argentoratene edition (so called from the Latin name of the city of Strassbourg where the book was printed) of Gratian's Decretum calls for some sort of memorial. Kenneth Boyce's piece, which follows this one, tells something about the book itself, where it came from and how it got to Michigan. This piece deals with its contents.

Some Brickbats For The Proposed Equal Educational Opportunities Act Of 1972, Paul D. Carrington

Law Quadrangle (formerly Law Quad Notes)

On March 20, 1972, President Nixon proposed two pieces of legislation, one a moratorium on court-ordered busing of elementary and secondary students, and the other entitled the Equal Educational Opportunities Act. Preliminarily, the bill would have Congress find that dual school systems are unconstitutional, that dual school systems have been virtually abolished, that extensive transportation of students has been ordered, and that such transportation is expensive and harmful.

The following comments are based on Professor Carrington's testimony of April 12, 1972 before the House Committee on Education and Labor.
