The Judicial Process Of Treaty Interpretation In The United States Supreme Court, John Selden Tennant
The Judicial Process Of Treaty Interpretation In The United States Supreme Court, John Selden Tennant
Michigan Law Review
When the Federal Union was substituted for the loose confederation which had preceded it, one of the most impelling reasons for the change was the need for a united international front, which could only be achieved by further concentration in a central government of the power to deal with foreign nations. A necessary part of this general plan was the treaty-making power, taken from the states by Article I, Section 10 of the Constitution, and lodged in the President and the Senate by Article II, Section II.
Judicial Attitudes In The Customs-Union Case, Robert Elden Mathews
Judicial Attitudes In The Customs-Union Case, Robert Elden Mathews
Michigan Law Review
The World Court decision of last September in the Austro-German Customs case has given rise in many quarters to an attack upon the Court itself.
The criticism has not been based solely upon the eight-to-seven vote of the judges. We have too many one-man majorities in our own judiciary to find much concern there. But the alignment of nationalities from which the two groups of judges come has been the source of the greatest adverse comment. For it so happens that the majority, holding illegal the proposed Customs Union, was composed of judges many of whose nations were opposed to …

The Constitution And The International Labor Conventions, Harold W. Stoke
Michigan Law Review
The International Labor Organization, since its establishment in 1919, has become one of the most active of the international institutions of the post-war period. It was founded upon that provision of the Treaty of Versailles which binds each signatory nation and those which should later join the organization to endeavor to secure and maintain fair and humane conditions of labor for men, women and children, both in their own countries and in the countries to which their commercial and industrial relations extend.
Foreign Consul - Exemption From Suit In State Courts, Julius I. Puente
Foreign Consul - Exemption From Suit In State Courts, Julius I. Puente
Michigan Law Review
In a recent case decided in California the defendant, De Besa, and others, were licensed brokers, and in that character acted as fiscal agents for the sale of the stock of a certain California corporation. Plaintiff sued to rescind the contract for misrepresentation. Neither at the time suit was filed, nor at any time prior to the day when he testified at the trial was the defendant, De Besa, a recognized consular officer; but it seems (on this point the facts of the case are very vague) that on the date of the trial and at the time of the …
Foreign Diplomats And The Prohibition Laws, Lawrence Preuss
Foreign Diplomats And The Prohibition Laws, Lawrence Preuss
Michigan Law Review
Notwithstanding the general and inclusive nature of the Eighteenth Amendment and of the enforcement legislation enacted under its terms, the executive departments of the national government have acted on the assumption that foreign diplomats are exempted from the operation of the prohibition laws, and have issued regulations by which the importation of liquor by members of this class is permitted. According to statements of the responsible officers concerned, this privilege is based upon "international comity and usage," and upon "the established principles of international Jaw and the statutes of the United States, including the provisions of sections 4063-4065 of the …
