Michigan Law Review

Defendant, whose business was chiefly interstate, violated a statute of New Hampshire which regulated the hours of service of drivers of certain motor vehicles. The violation occurred after the passage of the Federal Motor Carrier Act of 1935, which, among other things, conferred authority upon the Interstate Commerce Commission "to establish reasonable requirements with respect to . . . maximum hours of service of employees" of common and contract carriers by motor vehicle in interstate commerce. At the time of the breach of the state statute, the Interstate Commerce Commission had not prescribed regulations as to hours of service. Defendant …

Administrative Adjudication Of Contract Disputes: The Walsh-Healey Act, Walter Gellhorn, Seymour L. Linfield Apr 1939

Administrative Adjudication Of Contract Disputes: The Walsh-Healey Act, Walter Gellhorn, Seymour L. Linfield

Michigan Law Review

The ashes of the National Recovery Act were scarcely cool before evils, sought to be abated by the statute, once more manifested themselves in virulent form. Temptation to increase hours of labor, often with the accompaniment of sharp reductions in wages, and to utilize more freely the services of child laborers, was resisted by many employers. But it was resisted with ever diminishing success in the face of grim competition for a none too voluminous business. Out of disillusion and disappointment was born the Walsh-Healey Act, to salvage from the Blue Eagle at least a few of its less conspicuous …


Administrative Law - Requirements Of "Full Hearing", Collins E. Brooks Feb 1939

Administrative Law - Requirements Of "Full Hearing", Collins E. Brooks

Michigan Law Review

The late Professor Ernst Freund once wrote, "A judicial hearing involves two things: that the party be heard as to his own case and that he hear the case against him." Were the words "quasi-judicial" to be substituted for the word "judicial" in Dr. Freund's definition, it would be difficult more concisely to paraphrase the two decisions of the United States Supreme Court in the case of Morgan v. United States. Fifty suits, later consolidated for purposes of trial, were started by certain market agencies of the Kansas City Stockyards to enjoin the enforcement of an order of the …

Judicial Review Of The Fact Findings Of The Federal Trade Commission, William G. Daniels Jan 1939

Judicial Review Of The Fact Findings Of The Federal Trade Commission, William G. Daniels

Washington Law Review

Section 5 of the Trade Commission Act (15 U. S. C. § 45) and Section 11 of the Clayton Act (15 U. S. C. § 21) provide that "The findings of the Commission as to facts, if supported by testimony, shall be conclusive." This follows the form of the usual statutory provision, and its settled interpretation is that the findings of the administrative board, if supported by substantial evidence, are conclusive as to issues of fact. The purpose of the creation of the Trade Commission was largely to establish an administrative tribunal consisting of a body of persons especially qualified …
