Freedom Of Speech And Of The Press In War Time The Espionage Act, Thomas F. Carroll Jun 1919

Freedom Of Speech And Of The Press In War Time The Espionage Act, Thomas F. Carroll

Michigan Law Review

The Imperial German Government had never made a secret of its willingness to encourage disloyalty among the citizens and subjects of Germany's enemies. It had officially announced: "Bribery of enemies' subjects, acceptance of offers of treachery, utilization of discontented elements in the population, support of pretenders and the like are permissible; indeed, international law is in no way opposed to the exploitation of the crimes of third parties."'

Retaliation And Neutral Rights, Hessel Edward Yntema May 1919

Retaliation And Neutral Rights, Hessel Edward Yntema

Michigan Law Review

The readjustment of international law to the ever-changing conditions of maritime warfare has always presented problems of extreme difficulty. Particularly is this the case, when, as in the Napoleonic wars and the recent European conflict, belligerents, falling back upon the exceptional plea of necessity, attempt to modify the rights of neutral powers to their own advantage or even to involve them in the conflict. A question of this character, namely, the extent to which a belligerent in pursuing retaliatory measures against 'alleged violations of international law by his opponent, may thereby abridge the admitted rights of neutrals, was raised in …

Food And Fuel Control, William Barker Marvin Feb 1919

Food And Fuel Control, William Barker Marvin

Michigan Law Review

In the present war, nationalization of industry and centralization of control have been found necessary to an extent never before attempted. The very vastness of the armies, and of the quantities of munitions and other supplies needed to keep the strength of the armies at its highest point required that the most efficient forms of industrial organization be sought out and utilized. In a nation with a single aim and a single will, that is, in a nation so organized as to wage successfully a modern war; the individual has had to sacrifice much for the good of the whole; …

War Legislation Pertaining To The Army, Alfred A. Gillette Dec 1918

War Legislation Pertaining To The Army, Alfred A. Gillette

Michigan Law Review

At the time we entered the present war, we had approximately 1oo,ooo men actually in the federal service. We were confronted with the problem of raising and training a large army in a short time. There were in general two possible courses of action open before us. The first, which might seem to be the traditional method, was that of voluntary enlistment. But for I number of years, there had-been a growing sentiment among our people that the system of voluntary enlistment was neither right in principle nor in accord with the best interests of the nation. The plan these …

Alien Rights In The United States In Wartime, W C. Hunter Nov 1918

Alien Rights In The United States In Wartime, W C. Hunter

Michigan Law Review

The large number of aliens in the United States presents one of the many problems with which the Government has had to deal in the present war. Technically every immigrant from Germany and Austria-Hungary who has not taken out papers of naturalization and who therefor still owes allegiance to the Fatherland is an enemy alien. But while the great majority of these aliens are naturally sympathetic with German war aims, or at least are not ready to give their wholehearted support to the Allies, they are not a source of danger to the United States. Only a small section have …

War And Law, Charles H. Hamill Nov 1917

War And Law, Charles H. Hamill

Michigan Law Review

Law creates rights. It not merely defines them; it creates them. Without law, one may what he can. With law, one can only that which he may. Law is the device by which the many, individually weak, control and compel the few individually strong or cunning. It is a device by which is reduced nature's handicap in favor of the physically strong and ruthless. Where law obtains, those who are fitted to the system created by the law, as the economically efficient, prevail and survive. In the absence of law, only the strong and cunning can survive.

English Law Courts At The Close Of The Revolution Of 1688, Arthur L. Cross May 1917

English Law Courts At The Close Of The Revolution Of 1688, Arthur L. Cross

Michigan Law Review

In view of the part which the judges played for a4d against the first two STUARTS, and in view of the grievances of the subject under the law as administered in the ordinary courts 2 -to say nothing of the Star Chamber and the High Commission-it was to be expected that, in the great political and religious upheaval resulting from the Puritan Revolution and the ensuing Civil War, the legal edifice could not remain unshaken. As is well known, one of the early acts of the Long Parliament, in the summer of 1641, was to ab6lish the Star Chambei, the …

On August 7th, 1914, three days after Great Britain had dedared war, a momentous statute, called the Deference of the Realm Act, was passed through the House of Commons with lightning speed, without a word of protest, in that spirit of decision and confidence which has marked the war measures of this Parliament.
