In Pursuit Of Excellence -- A History Of The University Of Minnesota Law School, Part I: The Pattee Years -- A Time Of Accommodation, Robert Stein
Articles
In September 1888, William S. Pattee, the newly elected dean of the University of Minnesota's infant law department,' began, with the help of lecturers from the practicing bars of Minneapolis and St. Paul, to educate some 67 '"young gentlemen of zeal and promise' 2 in the law. Ninety years later, the University of Minnesota Law School continues this mission, with 62 full-or part-time faculty members, for the benefit of about 750 students. During this period, the school has been shaped by the administrations of six deans, has conferred over 7,500 J.D. or LL.B. degrees,3 has affected the lives of many …

The Appointment And Disappointment Of Supreme Court Justices, Philip B. Kurland
The Appointment And Disappointment Of Supreme Court Justices, Philip B. Kurland
Articles
The recent controversy over President Nixon's appointments to the Supreme Court, and the institution of impeachment proceedings against Justice Douglas, have raised important questions concerning qualifications for, and behavior of, Supreme Court justices. In this Article, Professor Kurland discusses the important qualities that a Supreme Court justice should possess, the various competing pressures that often influence presidential selections, the Senate's proper role in the confirmation process, and, finally-with special emphasis upon the impeachment proceedings against Justice Douglas-the available means of removing incumbent justices.
Local Government In Sweden, Terrance Sandalow
Local Government In Sweden, Terrance Sandalow
Articles
Ever since the publication of Marquis Childs' The Middle Way, Americans of liberal persuasion have tended to point to Sweden as a model, a nation which simultaneously has achieved rapid economic growth, eliminated poverty, and maintained individual and political freedom. Swedish cities, and especially Stockholm, are reputed to be among the best planned in the world. Yet, for all the admiration that has been expressed, there has been surprisingly little investigation by Americans of the legal and governmental framework within which the Swedes have accomplished so much. The modest aim of this paper is to report the major outlines of …

The Lawyer As A Negotiator: An Adventure In Understanding And Teaching The Art Of Negotiation, James J. White
The Lawyer As A Negotiator: An Adventure In Understanding And Teaching The Art Of Negotiation, James J. White
Articles
In the fall of 1965 we enlisted experience as a teacher in an experimental seminar called "The Lawyer as a Negotiator." We gave the students experience not by simulation but by making them negotiate with one another for their grades in the course. In this as in many other "experience" courses the teaching supplement consisted of readings and of classroom participation by the students and teachers. However the supplement differed from the standard trials and appeals or legal writing course in that a psychiatrist was a full partner in the teaching and in the discussion and analysis of the student …
The Canada-United States Controversy Over The Columbia River, Ralph W. Johnson
The Canada-United States Controversy Over The Columbia River, Ralph W. Johnson
Articles
In a comprehensive study of the recent dispute between Canada and the United States over the Columbia River, Professor Johnson traces its history through the birth of the Harmon doctrine in 1898, the signing of the Boundary Waters Treaty in 1909, and the first Canadian claim to downstream benefits in the early 1950's. Against this background, he analyzes the negotiations and events—particularly the Canadian proposals to divert the Columbia into the Fraser, and to develop the Peace River instead of the Columbia—that culminated in the Columbia River Treaty in 1961. Before Canadian ratification of the Treaty, however, additional problems presented …

On Charting A Course Through The Mathematical Quagmire: The Future Of Baker V. Carr, Jerold H. Israel
On Charting A Course Through The Mathematical Quagmire: The Future Of Baker V. Carr, Jerold H. Israel
Articles
The Tennessee reapportionment decision, Baker v. Carr,' has been popularly characterized as one of the "very few judicial decisions which have fundamentally reshaped our constitutional system."'2 Newspaper and magazine commentators generally have predicted that the decision of last March is likely to "change the course of our history" by producing a drastic alteration in the balance of power on the state political scene.3 While this end may be desirable,4 any such estimate of the future impact of the Baker decision, at least insofar as its legal consequence is concerned,5 seems not only premature but somewhat exaggerated. The future significance of …

Some Thoughts On "Antitrust Policy" And The Antitrust Community, Robert Levy
Some Thoughts On "Antitrust Policy" And The Antitrust Community, Robert Levy
Articles
In this article, ProfessorLevy uses a recent book recom- mending extensive changes in the antitrust laws as a springboardfor discussion of one of the most complex and difficult problems of antitrustadministration:the lack of competition in the "concentrated,"or oligopolistic,in- dustries. The author suggests that reform through legis- lation is probably impossible because of the current cli- mate of opinion and the effectiveness of numerous anti- trust "hucksters"-laivyers and businessmen who fre- quently sacrifice accuracy and objectivity in pursuing re- sults they favor. ProfessorLevy suggests a new interpre- tation of the present Sherman Act to avoid the difficul- ties of legislative modification.His …

Riparian And Public Rights To Lakes And Streams, Ralph W. Johnson
Articles
The purpose of this article is to assist in the re-examination of Washington water law by looking at the parts of that law encompassed within the labels "riparian" and "appropriation." The first few pages will sketch some of the current trends in water use, showing some of the remarkable differences in use between the first part of the century and today, and between the eastern and western parts of the state. The balance of the article will examine the two systems to see where they are meeting current needs of the state and where they are not. Several questions will …

The Columbia River System, Ralph W. Johnson
The Columbia River System, Ralph W. Johnson
Articles
In March, 1959; the International Columbia River Engineering Board submitted its report on the co-operative development of the river to the International Joint Commission. In December, 1959, that Commission submitted to the governments of Canada and the United States its recommendations for apportionment of benefits if co-operative development is undertaken. And thirdly, in the last two years there has been much attention directed at the Peace River development, which is considered by some as competitive with the Columbia. Let us examine the effects of these events on the Columbia River problem. A presentation for Panel II, Current Legal Problems Connected …

Sales: Liability For The Presence Of Mice And Other Uncommon Things In Food, John B. Waite
Sales: Liability For The Presence Of Mice And Other Uncommon Things In Food, John B. Waite
Articles
A group of recent decisions presents a somewhat farcical conformity with Montesquieu's thesis that "law" may vary with time and geography. It strikingly illustrates, also, the importance of the particular theory of liability upon which a suit is predicated. The unusual similarity in detail of the operative facts of these cases lends peculiar emphasis to the difference in the judgments rendered.
Legal Education In The United States, Horace Lafayette Wilgus
Legal Education In The United States, Horace Lafayette Wilgus
Articles
The origin of law schools is lost in antiquity. It is probable there were advocates in Babylonia,1 and schools for the education of judges and scribes (perhaps the ancestral lawyers) in Egypt,2 more than 2000 years B.C. The Civil Code of Deuteronomy was published 621 B.C.,3 and soon afterward schools of the prophets were formed for its study.4 When Ezra left Babylon for Jerusalem (485 B.C.) he "set his heart * * * to teach in Jerusalem statutes and judgments,"5 and the ruins of his school could be seen by the law students at Husal, 500 years later.6 It is …
Law School Of The University Of Michigan, Henry W. Rogers
Law School Of The University Of Michigan, Henry W. Rogers
Articles
The University of Michigan is one of the two largest universities in the United States, and this position it has attained within a comparatively few years. In June, 1887, it celebrated its semi-centennial ; and the University Calendar this year issued shows a Faculty roll of one hundred and eight professors, instructors, and assistants, as well as the names of eighteen hundred and eighty-two students. Harvard University, founded in 1636, and the oldest institution of learning in the country, celebrating its two hundred and fiftieth anniversary in November, i886, leads it in numbers by only seventeen students. In 1871 the …
Law Schools And Legal Education, Henry W. Rogers
Law Schools And Legal Education, Henry W. Rogers
Articles
In the February number of the AMERICAN LAW REGISTER, there appeared an interesting article from the pen of Mr. Henry Budd, discussing the relation of law schools to legal education. The motive which inspired the writing of the article, was a commendable one, and the desire of the writer to have a higher standard established, governing admissions to the bar, will be quite generally concurred in. No one could read the article in question, however, without readily perceiving that the law schools of the United States were considered to be, in large measure, responsible for the admission to the bar …
