Neutral Convoys In Law And Practice, Benjamin Akzin
Michigan Law Review
The following study, based on law and past practice, aims at clarifying the status of neutral convoys in relation to the problem of convoying American supplies to Great Britain in the present war as it stood under the Neutrality Act of 1939. The question at issue touches both upon international law and American constitutional law. Both these aspects are investigated in the following pages.

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 …
Neutrality And The European War 1939-1940, Josef L. Kunz
Neutrality And The European War 1939-1940, Josef L. Kunz
Michigan Law Review
Obviously it is still impossible and will be impossible for some time to make a definitive legal research into the problem of neutrality during the present European war. Most important facts and documents are still unpublished, inaccessible or shrouded in the fog of contradictions and propaganda. The duration and the outcome of the war are still uncertain and nobody can foresee what type of world will emerge from this war and what the future of neutrality in this type of world will be.
Labor Law - National Labor Relations Act - Necessity Of A Written Contract To Meet Requirement Of Good Faith Collective Bargaining, Rex B. Martin
Labor Law - National Labor Relations Act - Necessity Of A Written Contract To Meet Requirement Of Good Faith Collective Bargaining, Rex B. Martin
Michigan Law Review
Having found that the petitioner, by refusing to sign an agreement reached with the union, was refusing to bargain collectively, the National Labor Relations Board ordered it to bargain by signing a written agreement. The Circuit Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit directed enforcement of the board's order. On certiorari to that court, held that the board's order should be enforced. H.J. Heinz Co. v. National Labor Relations Board, (U. S. 1941) 61 S. Ct. 320, affirming (C. C. A. 6th, 1940) 110 F. (2d) 843.

Labor Law - Picketing To Compel Breach Of A Statutory Duty - Conflict Between Norris-Laguardia Act And National Labor Relations Act, Michigan Law Review
Michigan Law Review
Petitioners, a corporate employer and an A. F. of L. union whose membership included all the company's active employees, brought suit in a federal court against a C. I. O. union, whose membership included two of petitioner's employees on strike, to enjoin respondents' picketing. The purpose of the picketing was to coerce the employer and employees to violate the agreement entered into with the petitioner union as exclusive bargaining agency and to cause the employer to rescind its recognition of that union. The trial court granted an injunction against all picketing on findings that the agreement between the employer and …
The State Legislatures And Unionism: A Survey Of State Legislation Relating To Problems Of Unionization And Collective Bargaining, Russell A. Smith, William J. Delancey
The State Legislatures And Unionism: A Survey Of State Legislation Relating To Problems Of Unionization And Collective Bargaining, Russell A. Smith, William J. Delancey
Michigan Law Review
'There ought to be a law!" So declared labor and its friends in the early days of the New Deal, and the Wagner Act and "little" Wagner acts (the "labor relations acts") were the legislative response. Now, some five years later, with Utopia in labor relations not yet at hand, the hue and cry goes up for still more law, both state and federal. In part this is the typical American reaction to particular irritations and assumes with the usual naiveté that there is a single legislative specific for every isolated ailment. In part it is the equally typical reaction …

The Legal Significance Of Labor Contracts Under The National Labor Relations Act, William Gorham Rice Jr.
The Legal Significance Of Labor Contracts Under The National Labor Relations Act, William Gorham Rice Jr.
Michigan Law Review
The National Labor Relations Act was passed, as it declares in its first section, to encourage "the practice and procedure of collective bargaining'' and to give workers freedom to designate "representatives of their own choosing, for the purpose of negotiating the terms and conditions of their employment"; and the last of the unfair labor practices named in section 8 is for an employer "to refuse to bargain collectively." Bargaining and negotiating, the National Labor Relations Board has repeatedly declared, must be done in good faith. Discussion is not true negotiation or bargaining. For the employer to bargain in good faith …
German Social Honor Courts, Harlow J. Heneman
German Social Honor Courts, Harlow J. Heneman
Michigan Law Review
Germany's National Socialist regime has prided itself on its ability to maintain peaceful employer-employee relations at a time when other countries of the world are seriously troubled by industrial disturbances. The German government has actively intervened to see that neither employers nor workers overstep bounds set for them by Nazi social and economic policies. Dr. Robert Ley, head of the German Labor Front, has said that the government owes its success in this field to measures that are a "healthy combination of freedom and compulsion." Since Hitler's advent to power, the former organizations of both employers and employees have largely …

The Labor Relations Acts-Their Effect On Industrial Warfare, Lennart Larson
The Labor Relations Acts-Their Effect On Industrial Warfare, Lennart Larson
Michigan Law Review
This article is addressed to the query whether the labor relations acts have any effect on the ends and means of labor warfare. During the hey-day of the NIRA, decisions may be found which indicated that industrial warfare for the objects within the regulatory power of the code authorities was unlawful. Strikes and picketing were enjoined where carried on for higher wages and hours, objects which were thought properly to be for code authorities to adjust. Those decisions were of dubious soundness, but they suggest an argument which may be advanced under the labor relations acts. The NIRA was of …
Corporate Nationality And The Neutrality Law, Paul Weidenbaum
Corporate Nationality And The Neutrality Law, Paul Weidenbaum
Michigan Law Review
Even a superficial reading of the neutrality law indicates that certain problems of corporate entity and nationality are of utmost importance for its future working. This act seeks to give protection from certain real or assumed dangers. The problem arises whether such purpose cannot be wholly frustrated by the simple means and ways afforded by incorporation. This problem has never been hidden.
Labor Law - Rights And Duties Under The National Labor Relations Act- Effect Of Norris-Laguardia Act, Lennart V. Larson
Labor Law - Rights And Duties Under The National Labor Relations Act- Effect Of Norris-Laguardia Act, Lennart V. Larson
Michigan Law Review
Defendants, members of a C.I.O. organization, petitioned for an election in plaintiff corporation's factory in order to determine the representatives of the employees for the purposes of collective bargaining. An employees' association, a union the members of which were restricted to employees of the corporation, received a majority of votes and was certified by the National Labor Relations Board as bargaining representative. Nevertheless, the C.I.O. union called a strike, demanding sole bargaining privileges and a closed shop. Picketing, violence and intimidation are alleged, as a result of which plaintiff's factory has had to shut down. Held, plaintiff is entitled …
A Comparison Of Continental And American Legal Education, Stefan Riesenfeld
A Comparison Of Continental And American Legal Education, Stefan Riesenfeld
Michigan Law Review
Legal education in the United States has become more and more a part of university education and the activity of the American university law school is a matter which invites comparison with the law schools of foreign universities. This is true particularly because the system of university legal education has recently also become a "problem" in this country. In 1930 Abraham Flexner published his instructive, but possibly not altogether unbiased, book on universities in which he pictured American, English and German universities. The author gave all his attention to the teaching of science, however, and did not discuss law schools, …
Congress And The Appellate Jurisdiction Of The Supreme Court, Ralph R. Martig
Congress And The Appellate Jurisdiction Of The Supreme Court, Ralph R. Martig
Michigan Law Review
A democratic government such as ours, based upon the theory of popular sovereignty, presents many curious political phenomena. For example: in order to insure a proper balance of the powers, it has been necessary for the Supreme Court to assume the onerous task of passing upon the constitutionality of congressional legislation. It is unfortunate, but necessary, that the Court be obliged to exercise this power of judicial review at a time when the entire country is suffering from the effects of a severe and sustained economic depression. It is unfortunate, too, that the legislation under judicial examination should involve questions …
Eminent Domain-Validity Of State Statute
Eminent Domain-Validity Of State Statute
Michigan Law Review
As upon certiorari, the New Mexico Supreme Court considered the question, whether it is "within legislative competence to declare a public use in the industry of coal mining, so as to permit taking private property in aid of it." Plaintiff had obtained a judgment of condemnation, and defendant attacked it as offensive to the New Mexico constitutional provision: "Private property shall not be taken or damaged for public use without just compensation." The opinion recognized the existence of an "orthodox" and a "liberal" doctrine of construing "public use." While the court found that, unlike Nevada's or Utah's, New Mexico's well-being …
Public Utilities -- Rate-Base -- Late Supreme Court Decisions
Public Utilities -- Rate-Base -- Late Supreme Court Decisions
Michigan Law Review
In fixing the rate-base of a telephone company, the Maryland Public Service Commission translated the agreed 1923 rate-base (with all subsequent additions to plant) to 1933 price levels by means of a composite price index which included both general all-commodity indices, and indices particularly adapted to the telephone business. Held, that an order enjoining enforcement of the rates will be affirmed. West v. Chesapeake & Potomac Telephone Co., (U.S. 1935) 55 S. Ct. 894.
Estoppel And Statutes Of Limitation, John P. Dawson
Estoppel And Statutes Of Limitation, John P. Dawson
Michigan Law Review
Among all the spheres of its activity estoppel probably performs no more useful service than in the alleviation of hardship caused by statutes of limitation. Here as in other places the elements of estoppel and its relations to more basic legal concepts are exceedingly hard to define. At some points its effects on limitation acts could be described in terms of express contract; at other points it merges into "fraud"; in general it provides the medium for official expressions of disapproval where civil litigation exceeds the permissible limits of private warfare.
Foreign Enforcement Of Actions For Wrongful Death, William H. Rose
Foreign Enforcement Of Actions For Wrongful Death, William H. Rose
Michigan Law Review
Actions for wrongful death have a long history in the common law. Homicide was once a private matter giving rise to the blood feud and later to the wergild, whereby a money substitute replaced private warfare. With the development of criminal law the crown took jurisdiction over all killings. At a time when all felonies carried with them the death penalty, forfeiture of chattels and escheat of lands, the right to sue for wrongful death was scarcely of practical importance. This was especially so since felony included negligent killing, and even an accidental killing required the king's pardon if …
Constitutional Law-Strike As Interference With Interstate Commerce
Constitutional Law-Strike As Interference With Interstate Commerce
Michigan Law Review
Whether the federal courts have jurisdiction to apply the mailed fist of the injunction to the settlement of strike disputes sometimes depends on whether the strike is deemed an interference with interstate commerce. Thus, the Supreme Court held in the recent case of Levering & Garrigues v. Morrin that relief must be denied a group of New York structural steel fabricators who sought to enjoin the boycott activities of the iron workers union, because " . . . the sole aim of the conspiracy was to halt or suppress local building operations as a means of compelling the employment of …
Judicial Examination Of The Accused-A Remedy For The Third Degree, Paul G. Kauper
Judicial Examination Of The Accused-A Remedy For The Third Degree, Paul G. Kauper
Michigan Law Review
In its report on "Lawlessness in Law Enforcement" the Wickersham Commission concludes that in the police systems of a number of American municipalities the "third degree" is very generally practiced as a means of extorting from accused persons under arrest confessions, incriminating statements, and other information of value to the police. The conclusion of the Commission confirms the results of private investigation made in the same field. It is true that the. methods of inquiry pursued by the Commission leave doubt as to the accuracy of some of the facts reported. But the quality of the evidence submitted as the …

The Recognition Of Russia, Edwin D. Dickinson
The Recognition Of Russia, Edwin D. Dickinson
Michigan Law Review
Revolution in Russia culminated, on March 15, 1917, in the abdication of the Romanoffs and the establishment of the Provisional Government. In November, 1917, the Provisional Government was overthrown by the Bolsheviki and the Russian Socialist Federated Soviet Republic was proclaimed. Thus in nine turbulent months authority in Russia passed from the autocracy of the Czars, through the ineffective hands of the moderates, to extreme radicals frankly committed to communism and the dictatorship of the proletariat.
Equality In International Law, Arnold D. Mcnair
Equality In International Law, Arnold D. Mcnair
Michigan Law Review
Under this title 1 propose to discuss the present position of the old doctrine of the Equality of States, to consider whether it has been helpful in the development of international society, and what prospect there is of that society finding in international law an instrument wherewith to bring about less inequality between States than at present exists.
Have The Bench And Bar Anything To Contribute To The Teaching Of Law?, Learned Hand
Have The Bench And Bar Anything To Contribute To The Teaching Of Law?, Learned Hand
Michigan Law Review
The teaching of lawyers is indeed as distinct a vocation from the practice of law, as law is from engineering or science. You have of recent years come practically to recognize it by your increasing insistence upon the teacher's exclusive devotion to his calling, so that I suppose not only has the well-worn practitioner wholly disappeared, who from his semi-antiquation delivers a course of lectures, but the part time teacher even in the prime of his powers is more and more evidently doomed. I cannot see this change as anything but happy and advantageous. If for no other reason I …
