Abortion Legislation: The Need For Reform, Law Review Staff

Vanderbilt Law Review

Widespread national publicity and recent state legislative activity have focused a significant degree of national concern on a serious problem of public health and morals--the question of abortion.Surveys indicate that between 1,000,000 and 1,500,000 abortions take place annually--or, one abortion for every four to five pregnancies. The so-called "back-street abortionists," whether amateur or professional, each year cause the death of 5,000 to 10,000 women who are forced to seek their services. Because of the highly controversial nature of abortion, statutes attempting to deal with the problem stubbornly resist amendment despite widespread disregard of their provisions. Many hospitals permit abortions under …

The Japan-United States Salmon Conflict, Ralph W. Johnson

Washington Law Review

The United States, Canada, and Japan signed the International Convention for the High Seas Fisheries of the North Pacific Ocean [hereinafter cited as Tripartite Treaty] on May 9, 1952, 11 days after the effective date of the Japanese Peace Treaty. This fisheries Treaty became effective June 12, 1953. It initiated the "abstention" principle whereby Japan agreed to abstain from fishing stocks of North American spawned salmon when the Commission, created in the treaty, was satisfied that the United States and Canada were taking the "maximum sustainable yield"' of those stocks, when it was demonstrated that United States and Canadian fishermen …

New Uses Of International Law In The North Pacific, Douglas M. Johnston

Washington Law Review

Since all marine fisheries are either shared or shareable and constitute a renewable resource, broad policy problems of fishery use, both by "have" and "have not" fishing states, always have an international aspect and involve considerations of both development and conservation. In few areas of international law is the challenge to our reason and imagination so acute; and seldom do jurists so obviously require the services of the natural sciences. Yet fishery science, now engaging a small but growing number of specialists from biology and related disciplines, is still unable to provide an adequate factual basis for the sophisticated articulation …

Aspects Of Internal Decision-Making Processes In Intergovernmental Fishery Commissions, William T. Burke

Washington Law Review

The purpose of this paper is to examine certain aspects of the decision-making processes of intergovernmental institutions established for regulating interactions in the exploitation of ocean fisheries. The aspects selected are those denominated as internal constitutional arrangements; embracing, more specifically, the grant of capacity to the group, membership provisions, structure, objectives, and distribution of certain authority functions within the commissions. Very little attention is devoted to the external decision-making process involving the fishery commissions with other participants, including members and other public or private entities which a more comprehensive study would embrace. Fortunately, in light of anticipated developments in world …

Some Japanese Far-Sea Fisheries, Fukuzo Nagasaki

Washington Law Review

This paper briefly describes some of the Japanese far-sea fisheries in the Pacific Ocean which are now of international concern. This includes some of the Japanese salmon fisheries (including some classified in the off-shore fishery), the kingcrab fishery and the bottomfish fishery in the northern North Pacific, and the tuna fishery in the Pacific Ocean. Brief remarks are also made on recent conditions of the major stocks.

Economic And Legal Aspects Of Japanese Fisheries Regulation And Control, Salvatore Comitini

Washington Law Review

Japan is unique among the so-called free-market economies in that over 85 percent of all fishing operations is regulated and controlled by law. This distinguishing characteristic of Japanese fishing operations has led some observers to infer that it may be the most signficant factor in the seemingly "comparative advantage" which Japan enjoys over Western nations in high seas fishing. However, the regulations, as they have developed, are not as rigidly imposed and inflexible as those under a centrally planned economy such as that of the Soviet Union. Nor are the regulations quite as limited—in the economic sense of that term—as …

Politics Of The North Pacific Fisheries—With Special Reference To The Twelve-Mile Bill, Kline R. Swygard

Washington Law Review

The purpose of this paper is to review the historical development of the federal legislation which established "a contiguous fishing zone beyond the territorial sea of the United States," popularly known as the 12-mile bill, with particular reference to the interplay of political forces in order to expose politics and its role in the North Pacific fisheries

Food Fishery Policies In The Western United States, William F. Royce, Edward D. Hansen

Washington Law Review

Some of the obstacles to the growth of our fishing economy may lie in governmental policies relating to conservation and development of our food fish resources and food fish industry. Both the objectives and the means of achieving food fishery policies involve a system of government control over the business and the resource. We shall examine food fishery policies in the four states bordering on the Pacific Ocean: California, Oregon, Washington and Alaska. Our primary objective is to describe those policies, the authority from which they derive, the objectives and practices of the responsible departments, and the source of the …

Management Of The North Pacific Fisheries: Economic Objectives And Issues, James A. Crutchfield

Washington Law Review

In this paper, we attempt to narrow the areas of conflict by specifying more precisely the objectives of fishery utilization (and, inferentially, of fisheries management) in the North Pacific, and by analysis of the extent to which the optimal combination of regulatory measures in a theoretical framework must be modified to accommodate the technological, administrative, and political complexities that beset an international fishery. The basic bioeconomic theory of an ocean fishery is modified to show its application to a typical case involving interdependent exploited species and international differences in market prices of both inputs and end products. The analysis is …

The 1967 Patent Law Debate—First-To-Invent Vs. First-To-File, George E. Frost

Duke Law Journal

United States patent law has traditionally been based on the proposition that the first inventor, not the first person to file a patent application, is the only person entitled to a patent. Nevertheless, the President's Commission on the Patent System has proposed that patent rights be awarded on a first-to-file basis, and this recommendation is now embodied in bills before Congress. The author urges that the conclusion that a pure first-to-file system would be better for the United States should not be too hastily drawn. He reveals that the present United States patent system is neither purely a first-to-invent nor …

Jurisprudence And The Nature Of Language: Contrasting Views Of Hart And Chomsky, Anon

Washington Law Review

Because much of modern philosophy has been preoccupied with some form of language analysis and because jurists often apply philosophical techniques and insights when attempting to solve jurisprudential problems, theories or views of the nature of language have considerable jurisprudential significance. The point is illustrated by the recent movement toward using the methods of "ordinary language" philosophy in the analysis of legal problems. The pattern is not new; a roughly similar relationship is seen in positivism and its application in jurisprudence. The notion behind this approach is that an understanding of the nature of language contributes to the solution of …
