The Steel Seizure Case: Congress, The President And The Supreme Court, Paul G. Kauper
The Steel Seizure Case: Congress, The President And The Supreme Court, Paul G. Kauper
Michigan Law Review
Questions relating to the legislative authority of Congress and of the several states have given rise to an immense mass of constitutional litigation ever since the time that the Supreme Court in Marbury v. Madison asserted its power of judicial review. Many of these cases have turned on the division of legislative authority between Congress and the state legislatures under our federal system. Yet within this same span of time relatively few cases have arisen to challenge the assertions of presidential power, and in only a few instances has the Court found occasion to speak at length on the questions …
The Law School 1952-53, E. Blythe Stason
The Law School 1952-53, E. Blythe Stason
Michigan Law Review
In reporting the current news of the Law School we must first speak of the students without whom the school would not exist. Another year has opened, this time with about a ten per cent reduction below last year in student enrollment, and consequently considerable relief from the rather overwhelming peaks of the earlier postwar years. Lawyers are deemed expendable in a military program, and, accordingly, a large proportion of college students intending to study law have, since the beginning of the Korean "police action" in 1950, been called to duty by their Selective Service boards immediately after graduation from …
Significant Developments In Labor Law During The Last Half-Century, Russell A. Smith
Significant Developments In Labor Law During The Last Half-Century, Russell A. Smith
Michigan Law Review
It is common knowledge that dramatic and almost revolutionary developments have taken place in labor law since the turn of the century. Indeed, "labor law" has only during this period achieved the distinction of a recognized branch of the law. Concurrently, trade unions have experienced an amazing growth, as well as changes in basic structure, and it may fairly be stated that the enlargement of the pertinent body of law has both stimulated and been influenced by the augmentation of union power. This article is intended as a survey of significant developments in the law, not as a treatment of …
The Uniform Code Of Military Justice-New Rights And A Means To Enforce Them, John F. Spindler
The Uniform Code Of Military Justice-New Rights And A Means To Enforce Them, John F. Spindler
Michigan Law Review
The Uniform Code of Military Justice, designed to govern the entire military establishment of the United States, was enacted May 5, 1950, replacing the three separate systems of law theretofore applied to the Army, Navy, and Air Force. Pressure for a uniform code was a reflection of the great surge toward unification of the Armed Services which followed World War II. The new Code, however, is not just a revision and consolidation of the prior systems of military law. World War II, with its great increase in the size of the Armed Services and in the percentage of the population …
Conflict Of Laws - Negotiable Instruments - Situs Of Bearer Bonds Under The Trading With The Enemy Act, W. H. Bates S.Ed.
Conflict Of Laws - Negotiable Instruments - Situs Of Bearer Bonds Under The Trading With The Enemy Act, W. H. Bates S.Ed.
Michigan Law Review
ln a suit on a negotiable instrument, a problem arises as to just how many places can claim valid jurisdiction. Thus, where the domiciles of the parties to a negotiable instrument are diverse, there are several jurisdictional possibilities. For example, with regard to a negotiable bearer bond it may be said that there is sufficient contact with the parties and/or the property (1) at the place where it was issued, (2) at the present location of the certificate of indebtedness, (3) at the location of the debtor corporation's office or principal place of business, or (4) in the state of …
The Law Of Belligerent Occupation In The American Courts, Morris G. Shanker S.Ed.
The Law Of Belligerent Occupation In The American Courts, Morris G. Shanker S.Ed.
Michigan Law Review
This comment will investigate the extent to which the law of belligerent occupation has actually become a part of the American municipal law, and thereby attempt to determine whether it was properly applied in this case.

Citizenship-Expatriation-Distinction Between Naturalized And Natural Born Citizens, Gordon I. Ginsberg S.Ed.
Michigan Law Review
Plaintiff's father, a native of Germany, was naturalized in the United States in 1896. In 1901, he returned to Germany with his American wife, and plaintiff was born in that country in 1905.

The trial …
Federal Procedure-Juries-Right To Jury Trial In Actions On National Service Life Insurance Policy Claims, Morris G. Shanker S.Ed.
Federal Procedure-Juries-Right To Jury Trial In Actions On National Service Life Insurance Policy Claims, Morris G. Shanker S.Ed.
Michigan Law Review
Plaintiff brought an action against the United States on a National Service Life Insurance policy in a federal district court. Timely demand for trial by jury was made in accordance with Federal Rule 38. Held, the plaintiff was entitled to a trial by jury. That section of the Judicial Code which reenacts the Tucker Act and denies jury trials in contract actions against the United States is not applicable to National Service Life Insurance claims. Williams v. United States, (D.C. Tex. 1951) 95 F. Supp. 672.
Commentary On General Relief Under The Excess Profits Tax Act Of 1950, Thomas N. Tarleau
Commentary On General Relief Under The Excess Profits Tax Act Of 1950, Thomas N. Tarleau
Michigan Law Review
Analysis of an excess profits tax involves inquiries which are essentially foreign to the concepts of ordinary income taxation. The question of excess profits arises only after taxable income has been defined and characterized, its recipients determined and the time of receipt established. The problem is to divide taxable income into two components, one representing the corporation's normal profits, which it is permitted to enjoy free of the penalty tax, and the balance which is deemed to be "profits due to the outbreak of hostilities and to large military expenditures." Under the Excess Profits Tax Act of 1950, as was …
Constitutional Law-Eminent Domain-Government Seizure Of Business Property To Avert Strike As A "Taking" Under Fifth Amendment-Amount Of Wage Increase As Measure Of "Just Compensation", John F. Spindler
Michigan Law Review
In 1943, in an attempt to end a strike of the United Mine Workers which threatened the national war effort, the Government, acting under an executive order directing the Secretary of the Interior to take possession of the mines where necessary, seized most of the nation's coal mines. Although mine officials were required to agree to conduct operations as agents of the Government, to keep separate books for the period of government operation, to fly the American Flag over the mines, and to post notices that the mines were "United States Property," they were instructed to carry on the mining …
