What Is Interstate Commerce?, Horace Lafayette Wilgus
What Is Interstate Commerce?, Horace Lafayette Wilgus
Articles
In the case of International Text-book Company v. Pigg, Advance Sheets May 1, 1910 (30 Sup. Ct. 481) the Supreme Court of the United States, decided April 4, 1910, that a "corporation engaged in imparting instruction by correspondence, whose business involves the solicitation of students in other states by local agents, who are to collect and forward to the home office the tuition fees, and the systematic intercourse between the corporation and its scholars and agents, wherever situated, and the transportation of the needful books, apparatus, and papers," is engaged in interstate commerce, and a state statute which makes the …

Mutuality Of Options, R. T. Holland
Mutuality Of Options, R. T. Holland
Michigan Law Review
In spite of the fact that options, so-called, have been in use for many years, it is surprising to find that the law is still somewhat unsettled, and that courts frequently express doubt as to their validity at this late day. The main difficulty with this form of contract seems to be an apparent lack of mutuality, and even when sustained, they have, in many cases, been treated as exceptions to the rule that mutuality must be present in all contracts.

National Sovereignty, S. S. Gregory
National Sovereignty, S. S. Gregory
Michigan Law Review
The growth and development of our country and its marvelous progress in every direction have been dwelt upon so constantly in what our critics characterize as a spirit of boastfulness and over weening national self-conceit, that almost any reference to this stupendous theme seems trite and commonplace. If we compare our country as it existed when the Federal Constitution was adopted, in extent of territory, in population and in wealth, with our present situation, the retrospect is astounding and overwhelming. It is not my purpose to rehearse the epic story of this mighty nation, inspiring and exalting as it is. …

The Public Policy Of Contracts To Will Future Acquired Property, Joseph H. Drake
The Public Policy Of Contracts To Will Future Acquired Property, Joseph H. Drake
Articles
The general subject of wills upon consideration seems to have given courts and jurists a good deal of trouble, not only in England and America, but also in the continental countries. The Code Napoleon appears in terms actually to prohibit the making of reciprocal or mutual wills in the same instrument.

Legal Ethics, Charles A. Kent
Legal Ethics, Charles A. Kent
Michigan Law Review
Legal ethics is a branch of general ethics. Some consideration of the latter is necessary to an understanding of the former. It is a fundamental fact that men generally, if not all sane men, distinguish certain courses of conduct as right and wrong; just as they say particular objects are beautiful and others ugly. They feel a duty to do some things and to refrain from others. If savages do not feel distinctly the sense of duty, at least they are indignant at certain conduct in their associates, and approve of other acts, on moral grounds. This sense of duty …

In general-the question frequently arises whether the principal may be affected not only by the agent's acts and contracts, but also by the knowledge which he may possess, or the notice which may come to him, respecting the subject matter of the agency, and which would have affected the principal had it come to him while he was acting in person. The question has arisen in a great variety of forms, but the answer has been substantially uniform, and is commonly found stated in the language of the following section. Many reasons have been assigned, but they are all predicated …

Case Of The Monopolies Some Of Its Results And Suggestions, Sydney T. Miller
Case Of The Monopolies Some Of Its Results And Suggestions, Sydney T. Miller
Michigan Law Review
Apparently the monopolistic idea is as old as the history of man. That great and good man, Job, may be counted as the earliest recorded "trust-buster," if we read between the lines of his story, and Solomon said, "He that withholdeth corn, the people shall curse him; but blessing shall be upon the head of him that selleth it." Doubtless, by exhaustive search, we could find some record of attempts to monopolize during each century from Biblical days to the time of printing, and as surely there must have been a countermovement. But not until the last five hundred years …

The Beveridge Child Labor Bill And The United States As Parens Patriae, Andrew Alexander Bruce
Michigan Law Review
Although strenuous opposition has been encountered in the courts whenever an attempt has been made by the legislatures to interfere with the contractual freedom of adults in matters pertaining to the contract of employment, the right of interference in the case of children has been always conceded. From an early time minors have been placed under contractual disability by the law and have been looked upon as wards of the State. Having denied to them a full measure of contractual freedom, the State can hardly deny an equivalent protection; in fact the rule of contractual disability is in a large …

Commercial Aspect Of Uniform State Laws, Francis B. James
Commercial Aspect Of Uniform State Laws, Francis B. James
Michigan Law Review
A T the close of the American Revolution and even after the adoption of the articles of Confederation, each American State was not only a political unit but an industrial and commercial unit. Meafis of communication were few and cost of transportation almost prohibitive except in border and coast cities. Each State not only determined its political future but its own industrial and commercial policy. The Constitution of the United States, adopted in 1789, recognized the fact that each State continued as a political unit and at the same time created another political unit, the nation at large. It also …

The Commerce Clause Of The Federal Constitution And Two Recent Cases Dealing With It, S. S. Gregory
Michigan Law Review
In the historic case of M'Culloch v. Maryland, CHIEF Justice Marshall said, referring to the Federal Government: "This government is acknowledged by all to be one of enumerated powers. The principle that it can exercise only the powers granted to it, would seem too apparent to have required to be enforced by all those arguments which its enlightened friends, while it was depending before the people, found it necessary to urge. That principle is now universally admitted, but the question respecting the extent of the powers actually granted is perpetually arising and will probably continue to arise as long as …
