Does The "Bone-Dry" Law Prohibit The Interstate Transportation Of Intoxicants By The Owner For Personal Use?, Thomas Porter Hardman Apr 1918

Does The "Bone-Dry" Law Prohibit The Interstate Transportation Of Intoxicants By The Owner For Personal Use?, Thomas Porter Hardman

West Virginia Law Review

It has been recently held by the Federal courts, sitting in West. Virginia Districts, that interstate transportation of intoxicants by the owner for personal use is not interstate commerce, and, therefore, not prohibited by the so-called "Bone-Dry" Law. But inasmuch as there are at least two prior decisions squarely contra, and apparently none in accord, it would seem proper, in view of the far-reaching effect of these recent decisions, to examine the soundness of their conclusions.

Sources Of International Law, Charles G. Fenwick Apr 1918

Sources Of International Law, Charles G. Fenwick

Michigan Law Review

International law has clearly reached a drisis in its development. For a period of nearly 300 years preceding the outbreak of the present war international law appeared to the casual observer to have grown steadily and progressively. The student of history was able to point out certain clear and definite advances in the development of the law and assign them to particular dates. Grotius could be pronounced the Father of International Law, and the year 1625, which marked the appearance of his great treatise, could be set as the beginning of the modem period. A noticeable improvement in the law …


Bill Of Lading As Collateral Security Under Federal Laws, Frederick Thulin Apr 1918

Bill Of Lading As Collateral Security Under Federal Laws, Frederick Thulin

Michigan Law Review

The desirability of the bill of lading as collateral security has been recognized in business transactions for many decades. The foregoing fact arises from the inherent nature of the financing of transactions of foreign or domestic trade.


Legal Ethics, Clarence Archibald Lightner Apr 1918

Legal Ethics, Clarence Archibald Lightner

Michigan Law Review

My purpose here is a discussion of (I) the meaning of "ethics" in a professional sense, and (2) the relation to the subject of the "Canons of Ethics" of the American Bar Association. I have before me a valuable booklet1 in which the author opposes, in one chapter, "Ethical Instruction in the Schools" and, in the other chapter, he favors "Moral Instruction in the Schools." In his use of words, "ethical" means theory, a science, while "moral" means habits, an art. He persuasively opposes, therefore, the "ethical" while contending for the "moral."

When the Descendants of a Predeceased Legatee Will Not Take Under a Statute of Substitution - There are in most states statutes declaring that if a person named as legatee dies before the testator, his descendants shall take his share. Downing v. Nicholson, 115 Ia. 493; Strong v. Smith, 84 Mich. 567; x8 A. & E. ENCYC. Ol LAw, 2d Ed. 755. A common type is such as is found in the Civil Code of California, sec. 1310, viz.: "When any estate is devised or bequeathed to any child or other relation of the testator and the devisee or legatee …

German Legal Philosophy, John M. Zane Mar 1918

German Legal Philosophy, John M. Zane

Michigan Law Review

Annexed as an appendix to the translation of Kohler's Philosophy of Law is an appreciation of the work by Adolf Lasson, 1 who complains that he himself once wrote a philosophy of law which has sunk into oblivion, probably for the reason, as he modestly suggests, that he knew so much of systematic philosophy that he had no time to acquire any "special scientific learning either in the law or any other special department of knowledge."2 This complaint is a confession, child-like and amusing in its vanity, which could be dismissed without comment, were it not something that is wholly …

Note And Comment, Henry M. Bates, Edwin C. Goddard, John R. Rood

Michigan Law Review

The National Army Act and the Administration of the "Draft" - In Aryer v. U. S., and five similar cases attacking the validity of the socalled National Army Act of May 18, 1917, Public Statutes, No. 12, 65th Congress, c. -, - Stat. -. ) the Supreme Court unanimously sustained the validity of the Act so far as attacked. The contention that compulsory military service as provided in the Act is contrary to our fundamental conception of the nature of citizenship, and that such compulsion is repugnant to a free government and in conflict with the guaranties of the Constitution …

Book Reviews, John B. Waite, Evans Holbrook

Michigan Law Review

The Essentials of American Constitutional Law, by Francis Newton Thorpe, Professor of Political Science and Constitutional Law in the University of Pittsburgh. G. P. Putnam's Sons, 1917, pp. 279. This is a very readable presentation of the fundamental principles of Constitutional law. "Readable" is used advisedly because the book is written for readers rather than students of the subject. It is more a statement of principles than an exposition of their particular application. Furthermore, the principles as stated are less those which are expressed by the courts as the bases of decisions than those which inductive analysis shows to be …


Admission To The Bar, Edwin C. Goddard Feb 1918

Admission To The Bar, Edwin C. Goddard

Articles

This article is written in the belief that the hour is here when some changes in admissions to the bar should be urged and urged again, when some things often thought and discussed in certain assemblies should be openly and frankly talked over with the profession at large.


Corporate Earnings As Gains Profits And Income As Depending Upon The Time Of Their Accrual, Robert M. Drysdale, Maurice C. Mcgiffin Feb 1918

Corporate Earnings As Gains Profits And Income As Depending Upon The Time Of Their Accrual, Robert M. Drysdale, Maurice C. Mcgiffin

Michigan Law Review

The discussion here has to do with the earnings of corporations as taxable income, whether such earnings remain in the hands of the corporation accumulating them, or are distributed to the stockholders as dividends, the inquiry being limited, however, to the question of the time of their accrual as affecting their taxability.

Inducing Breach of Agreement by Employees Not to Join a Labor Union, in Order to Compel Unionization of Plaintiff's Business - In Hitchnan Coal & Coke Compazy v. John Mitchell, et al., (Dec. 10, 1917), 38 Sup. Ct. 6s, the novel question was presented to the Supreme Court of the United States, as to whether or not members of a labor Union could be enjoined from conspiring to persuade, and persuading, without violence or show of violence, plaintiff's employees, not members of the Union,-and who were working for plaintiff not for a specified time, but under an agreement not to …
