Constitutional Law In 1919-1920 Ii, Thomas Reed Powell
Michigan Law Review
Two important cases sustained objections to applications of the federal income tax. In each there was vigorous dissent. Evans v. Gore2 held that the constitutional provision that the federal judges shall receive "a compensation which shall not be diminished during their continuance in office" applies to diminution by inclusion of that compensation in the assessment of the general federal tax on net income. The case at bar involved a tax on the i918 compensation of a judge appointed in 1899. While not directly qualified by anything in the opinion, the decision would seem to have no application to judges appointed …
Indirect Revocation And Termination By Death Of Offers, James Lewis Parks
Indirect Revocation And Termination By Death Of Offers, James Lewis Parks
Michigan Law Review
In a learned and useful article, entitled "The Duration and Termination of an Offer,"1 by Professor Oliphant, which appeared in the January, 192o number of MICHIGAN LAW RvmIW, the nature of an offer to make a simple contract was considered as well as the question of when such an offer can be regarded as either revoked, or terminated. It is pointed out that where the actual state of mind of the offerer is different from his apparent state of mind that "the former must be ignored, and whenever -they happen to be identical that it may be ignored without effecting …
Law Of Oil And Gas, Iv, James A. Veasey
Law Of Oil And Gas, Iv, James A. Veasey
Michigan Law Review
This clause follows the grant, and is one of the most distinctive features of the modern oil and gas lease. Occasionally the duration of the lease is fixed by the granting clause; some times by a miscellaneous provision appearing therein. But generally speaking, the habenduin defines the term of the present-day oil and gas lease. At any rate a discussion of the legal effect of the habendum clause which now characterizes these instruments will involve the treatment of every important question which arises under this heading. At the outset we should observe that the clause is the direct result of …

Animals - Knowledge of Vicious Propensity - Owner not Liable for Dog Upsetting Ford - The defendant's dog had been in the habit of following and barking at automobiles, and this fact was known to the defendant.

Michigan Law Review
Part I of Mr. Ogilvie's book is entitled, "The Evolution of the Principle" and is intended to serve as an introduction to the subject of internatitonal rights on inland navigable waterways. Systematic treatment of the subject is reserved for a later volume. Assuming that free navigation on inland waterways is the natural sequence of freedom on the seas, the author sketches briefly the growth of maritime enterprise, the early development of maritime law, the history of maritime discovery, and the triumph after long controversy of the freedom of the seas- One short chapter is devoted to freedom of navigation on …

Baseball and the Judiciary - The acceptance by Judge Kenesaw Mountain Landis of the position of supreme arbiter of professional baseball, as recently announced, raises questions of good taste if not of propriety. It has been generally assumed that Judges of the District Court of the United States have their hands amply full if they do the work incumbent upon them in a way befitting a judge of the United States. It may well be true that the salary provided by the Government is grossly inadequate, but we dare say that no one has considered that the remedy for such …

Local And Special Legislation In Missouri Under The Constitution Of 1875 (Continued), Roscoe E. Harper
University of Missouri Bulletin Law Series
It was indicated in the preceding chapter that a general law relates to persons or things as a class; that this class is determined by a "distinguishing peculiarity" which bears a reasonable relation to the purpose for which the statute was enacted; and that this class includes all things which may come within it at any future time. It now remains to examine the cases in which this test has been applied.

Constitutional Law In 1919-1920, Thomas Reed Powell
Michigan Law Review
This review aims to include all the decisions on constitutional questions rendered by the Supreme'Court of the United States during the October Term of court which began in October, i919, and ended in June, i92o.1 The treatment for the most part contents itself with exposition. The footnotes give references to articles and editorial notes in recognized law journals commenting on the cases here reviewed and on the more important constitutional decisions of other courts.2 The classification of the cases and the arrangement of topics are not satisfactory, but no alternative seems distinctly superior. A classification on the basis of the …

Interest On Claims In Receivership Proceedings, Ralph E. Clark
Michigan Law Review
Outside the cases of receivership, the Supreme Court of the United States has said: "We reach the conclusion that whatever may have been the English and early American rule, the tendency in Virginia as elsewhere in this country, is to allow interest on contracts to pay money from the date that the debt becomes due."'
Plurality Of Advantage And Disadvantage In Jural Relations, Albert Kocourek
Plurality Of Advantage And Disadvantage In Jural Relations, Albert Kocourek
Michigan Law Review
A recent writer has inveighed, not without some declamation, against the use of rhetoric in the field of law-making.1 But rhetoric finds a place, and often an unprofitable one, not only in legislation, but even in technical legal analysis. Metonymy (change of name) has often been pointed out. When we say that X is the owner of blackacre, what we mean is that X has certain legal advantages concerning blackacre; in other words, that X is the holder or dominus of claims (rights) and powers concerning certain land. Synecdoche (saying more or less than i' meant) is very commonly found; …

Adoption - Right to Inherit from Foster Parents Not Lost by Readoption by Natural Father - In an adopted child's action against the natural children of foster parents and their assigns for the partition of real estate, where it appeared that the child had been re-adopted by the natural father, and where it appeared that she had stood by while the natural children sold the property to the co-defendants, it was held that the right to inherit from the foster parents was not lost by the readoption by the natural father and that she was nct estopped to assert her …
