Aliens - Naturalization - Netural Aliens Who Sought Relief From Military Service Barred From Becoming United States Citizens, John Houck S.Ed.
Aliens - Naturalization - Netural Aliens Who Sought Relief From Military Service Barred From Becoming United States Citizens, John Houck S.Ed.
Michigan Law Review
During World War II, an alien who was a citizen or a subject of a neutral country was allowed to escape service in the armed forces of the United States by signing Selective Service Form DSS 301. A release thus obtained carried with it a disability ever to become a citizen of the United States. A substantial number of neutral aliens availed themselves of this relief from military service. Today, the courts are faced with the problem of whether signing Form 301 shall in every case prevent the alien from becoming a citizen. It is the purpose of this comment …
Borderland - Where Copyright And Design Patent Meet, Richard W. Pogue
Borderland - Where Copyright And Design Patent Meet, Richard W. Pogue
Michigan Law Review
Copyright law and design patent law contemplate basically different objects of protection. Yet at the outer fringes of these types of protection certain concepts overlap to form a rather undefined borderland in which it is difficult to say what law is applicable-copyright law, patent law, neither, or both. It is the purpose of this paper to explore this borderland area in the light of traditional copyright and patent law principles, with attention given to policy considerations involved, and to offer suggestions toward drawing a sharper boundary between the two.

Advancements: I, Harold I. Elbert
Michigan Law Review
The purpose of this monograph is to consider the afore-mentioned topics and other questions inherent in the doctrine of advancements. Different interpretations in the various states will be discussed. The principal objectives of the work are to make a comparative study of advancement legislation and to state the law as it actually exists as a basis for determining whether it can be improved.

Comparative Negligence, William L. Prosser
Michigan Law Review
It is the purpose of this article to inquire, so far as possible, into the actual operation of the damage apportionment statutes, and to offer some conclusions as to the most desirable form of act for any legislature about to set forth upon these relatively uncharted seas.
Trends In Modern Corporation Legislation, Kenneth K. Luce
Trends In Modern Corporation Legislation, Kenneth K. Luce
Michigan Law Review
Any discussion of trends and developments in modem corporation legislation must assume some understanding of the historical antecedents of that legislation and the judicial approach to its interpretation. As a practical matter the outline of modern legislation has emerged within the memory of living men, but "in order to know what it is, we must know what it has been, and what it tends to become." The state is less concerned today than long ago about the corporation becoming a state within the state and usurping political power, although such concern could and does evidence itself from time to time. …
Actions Quasi In Rem Under Section 1655, Title 28, U. S. C., William Wirt Blume
Actions Quasi In Rem Under Section 1655, Title 28, U. S. C., William Wirt Blume
Michigan Law Review
Section 1655 of Title 28, U.S.C. (1948) was originally section 8 of an act of Congress approved March 3, 1875. A somewhat similar statute, limited to equity cases, had been enacted in 1872. Paragraph one of the present section reads:
"In an action in a district court to enforce any lien upon or claim to, or to remove any incumbrance or lien or cloud upon the title to, real or personal property within the district, where any defendant cannot be served within the State, or does not voluntarily appear, the court may order the absent defendant to appear or plead …
Woe Unto You Trade-Mark Owners, Julius R. Lunsford, Jr.
Woe Unto You Trade-Mark Owners, Julius R. Lunsford, Jr.
Michigan Law Review
THE new Trade-Mark Act,1 widely heralded as giving added protection to trade-mark owners, has in its nearly four years of operation resulted, in several spectacular instances, in narrowing the rights conferred by the registration and use of trade-marks. Text author Rudolph Callmann remarked after the act's first birthday: "Despite all the efforts of the bar, our courts still cling to the familiar anachronisms."2 Where do trade-mark owners stand today? The Supreme Court has to date failed to answer this question, and the federal courts have refused to consider the import of the new legislation. Many commentators, attorneys and scholars thought …
Limitations And The Federal Courts, William Wirt Blume, B. J. George Jr.
Limitations And The Federal Courts, William Wirt Blume, B. J. George Jr.
Michigan Law Review
Though as a practical matter it is difficult to secure passage of uniform legislation in all states, particularly when the subject matter has so long been considered as of local interest only, the need for such legislation in the case of the statute of limitations seems clear. To the extent that such a statute is adopted, the problem of varying limitation periods upon particular causes of action and similar causes of action will be removed. Only by a uniform state treatment of the problem will the conflict among federal districts resulting from the uniformity of result requirement of Erie Railroad …

Administrative Terminology And The Administrative Procedure Act, Bernard Schwartz
Administrative Terminology And The Administrative Procedure Act, Bernard Schwartz
Michigan Law Review
The confusion of terminology in our administrative law is a natural result of the manner in which that branch of law has developed. "The use of terms in administrative law exemplifies its most characteristic element-that it did not spring from a single source but has its roots in many places." The administrative process has not evolved according to a fixed plan; "thus far our Administrative Law has largely 'growed' like Topsy." With the haphazard habit characteristic of our political life, individual administrative agencies have been created as and when the need for them arose, without any logical system. The form …

The Presidential Succession Act Of I947, Ruth C. Silva
The Presidential Succession Act Of I947, Ruth C. Silva
Michigan Law Review
The Constitution of the United States empowers the Congress to designate what officer shall act as President in case of the death, resignation, removal, or inability of both the President and Vice President. Recently the Eightieth Congress passed a statute under this grant of power. Although the new succession act is frequently alleged to be unconstitutional, it is similar to the first succession law enacted by the Second Congress, which contained many of the men who framed the Constitution and voted for its ratification. The law of 1792 provided that the President pro tempore of the Senate or, if the …

Vested Rights And The Portal-To-Portal Act, Ray A. Brown
Vested Rights And The Portal-To-Portal Act, Ray A. Brown
Michigan Law Review
The Portal-to-Portal Act of 1947 attempts, by new and retroactive definitions of what constitutes working time of an employee under the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938, to deprive employees of claims under that earlier act, to which the Supreme Court of the United States has held they were entitled. This article will discuss whether this can be done under the due process clause of the Fifth Amendment.

The Evolution Of The "Duty To Bargain" Concept In American Law, Russell A. Smith
The Evolution Of The "Duty To Bargain" Concept In American Law, Russell A. Smith
Michigan Law Review
Promotion of collective bargaining appears to be a governmental policy borne of the travails of economic emergency during World War I, though it was somewhat foreshadowed by the earlier attempt in the Erdman Act of 1898 to outlaw the "yellow-dog'' contract. It first gained recognition by certain of the individual branches of the administration II and was subsequently suggested as an over-all policy, along with recognition of the right of self-organization and other principles, by the War Labor Conference Board. This board was appointed in January, 1918, by the Secretary of Labor and consisted of nominees of the National Industrial …

The Delegation Of Federal Legislative Power To Executive Officials, Theodore W. Cousens
Michigan Law Review
It will be the purpose of this article to attempt (1) a chronological survey of the previous Supreme Court cases relating to alleged delegations of legislative power, and (2) an analysis and discussion of the Panama Refining Co. decision in the light of this background. No discrimination is made between delegations of state and of federal legislative power, as the Supreme Court makes no such discrimination.
Undiscovered Fraud And Statutes Of Limitation, John P. Dawson
Undiscovered Fraud And Statutes Of Limitation, John P. Dawson
Michigan Law Review
Statutes of limitation are framed in terms of the interval between the accrual of a "cause of action" and the filing of suit. How far is the operation of this mathematical formula varied by the circumstance that the existence of the cause of action was for some time unknown to the suitor? In most American States statutes have given a partial answer to the question, but in uncertain terms. There, as well as in States where statutes are silent, an effort to provide a full and final answer would face a tangled web of history and legal doctrine, interwoven with …
Comment Upon Failure Of Accused To Testify, Robert P. Reeder
Comment Upon Failure Of Accused To Testify, Robert P. Reeder
Michigan Law Review
Last year the American Law Institute and the American Bar Association adopted resolutions declaring that when the defendant in a criminal trial does not testify the prosecution should be permitted to comment upon that fact. They urged the overthrow of a rule of law which have prevailed in the federal courts ever since accused persons were first permitted to give testimony, over fifty years ago, and which has governed the courts of forty-two out of the forty-eight states. The discussions which preceded the adoption of the resolutions have been published. In them the advocates of the change do not show …
Legislative Committees And Commissions In The United States, John A. Fairlie
Legislative Committees And Commissions In The United States, John A. Fairlie
Michigan Law Review
In the Congress of the United States and the legislatures of the forty-eight states committees composed of a limited number of members play an important part and to a large extent the predominant part, in legislation both by making preliminary inquiries and by planning the detailed provisions of measures. While important changes are at times made in the general sessions, the final result is in a large measure determined by the several committees. In most American legislative bodies there are numerous committees of various kinds, such as select committees for limited special purposes, standing committees regularly appointed, conference committees, and …

Congress And The National Administration, John A. Farlie
Congress And The National Administration, John A. Farlie
Michigan Law Review
Under the Constitution of the United States, Congress is vested with legislative powers; and under the classical doctrine of the separation of powers, it is primarily a law-making organ. A recent writer on government has, however, analyzed its functions under seven heads, as follows: as a constituent assembly, a canvassing board and electoral college, an organ of public opinion, a board of directors, an organ of legislation, an executive council, and a high court of justice. In its capacity as board of directors, he also states that "the whole power of direction, supervision and control of administrative affairs is legally …
Liberty And The Police Power, Clarence Emmett Manion
Liberty And The Police Power, Clarence Emmett Manion
Journal Articles
The American citizen now has practically no rights of person or property that neither Congress nor the State legislature may not impair by legislation. The adoption of the Articles of Confederation and the Federal Constitution served merely to transfer to the Federal government certain powers formerly exercised by the individual States. When all individuals were protected in the exercise of their respective rights it was never supposed that the rights of the individual were to be protected or approached through the avenues of legislation dictated by majority opinions as to what is now and again for the "general good". The …
Statutes Of Edward I Their Relation To Finance And Administration, Nathan Isaacs
Statutes Of Edward I Their Relation To Finance And Administration, Nathan Isaacs
Michigan Law Review
Perhaps the most far-reaching effect of the American Civil war, in the long run, could be illustrated by a chart showing government expenditures before and after that rebirth of the nation. The jump from the bottom of the chart to the top, with no apparent tendency to return, reflects a new conception of the function of the government, the creation of new powers and a redistribution of- the old ones. In like manner one of the most significant features of the present period of reconstruction throughout the civilized world seems likely to find its graphic representation in a curve that …
Reading From Ancient Chinese Codes And Other Sources Of Chinese Law And Legal Ideas, John Wu
Reading From Ancient Chinese Codes And Other Sources Of Chinese Law And Legal Ideas, John Wu
Michigan Law Review
With the legal profession today there is a growing interest in Vthe study of universal legal ideas. Legal ideas, it would seem, gain strength by extension both in time and in space. ,As ius" gentium is necessarily more congenial to human reason than ius civie, so it may. be said that the laws of all ages are more deep-seated in human nature than those of a particular generation. The scope of comparative jurisprudence, therefore, embraces all the length and breadth of legal scholarship, so that it cannot afford to ignore any materials that may give us light upon the legal …

Dean Bates comments on the alarming trend of nationalism in America: "Blind indeed must he be who supposes that our legal and political institutions can escape profound modification by those great changes in commercial, industrial, political and social conditions which, in part, were caused by the world war, but were greatly intensified by it.... No intelligent person, who has any knowledge of history and of the protection which local government has always given to human freedom, can fail to feel a deep and at times shuddering sense of apprehension at the rapidity with which we are massing our governmental power …

Freedom Of Speech And Of The Press In The Federalist Period The Sedition Act, Thomas F. Carroll
Michigan Law Review
The constitutional problem to which the Espionage Act of 1917 gave rise is almost as old as the Government itself. As early as 1798 the constitutional authority of the Government over speech ,and the press was called into question. The controversy caused by the Sedition Act of that date forms the subject of this paper.

Power Of Governor-General To Expel Resident Aliens From Insular Territory Of The United States, Horace Lafayette Wilgus
Articles
In the case of Forbes et al. v. Chuoco Tiaco, decided by the Supreme Court of the Philippine Islands July 30, 1910, 8 Off. Gaz., p. 1778, some of the most interesting, important, and fundamental questions were presented and determined for the time being, but not settled, it is reasonably safe to say until passed upon by the Supreme Court of the United States. The questions involved were whether the Governor General of the Philippine Islands has the power to expel resident Chinese aliens without a hearing or an opportunity to be heard, and whether the Governor, if he exceeded …
