Recent Developments In The Deportation Process, Reuben Oppenheimer
Recent Developments In The Deportation Process, Reuben Oppenheimer
Michigan Law Review
The process under which the United States, through the Department of Labor, deports aliens found to be unlawfully in this country is one of the oldest in American administrative law. It is also one of the most interesting, for this process deals almost entirely with persons as contrasted with property, and its development has been largely unimpeded by court decisions.
International Law-Expatriation-Citizenship Of Child Lost By Removal And Expatriation Of Father
International Law-Expatriation-Citizenship Of Child Lost By Removal And Expatriation Of Father
Michigan Law Review
Petitioner, a native-born American woman, was taken to Canada by her father who became naturalized there while she was still a minor. Petitioner later married a British subject and seeks naturalization here under a statute authorizing this to American women who have lost their citizenship through marriage to an alien. A treaty in force between the United States and Great Britain provided that persons naturalized according to Canadian law should lose American citizenship. The Canadian statute provided that if the father became naturalized, his minor children should, "within Canada," be deemed Canadian subjects. Held, that petitioner had not lost her …

Aliens-Right Of Illegally Present Alien To Sue-Tortsplaintiff's Violation Of Statute
Michigan Law Review
The plaintiff was injured when struck by an automobile operated on the public way by defendant Long. He brought two suits in tort, one against Long, the other against Adamski, the owner of the car. Defendants contested his right to sue on the ground that he was in the country admittedly in violation of the immigration laws. They offered the further objection that his illegal presence made him a trespasser on the highway, and hence, under the Massachusetts doctrine, he was ineligible to maintain a suit arising from mere negligence. Held, plaintiff's unlawful residence in the country was no …

Report On The Enforcement Of The Deportation Laws Of The United States, E. Blythe Stason
Report On The Enforcement Of The Deportation Laws Of The United States, E. Blythe Stason
Michigan Law Review
This report is concurred in by nine of the eleven members of the Commission. Two members, Henry W. Anderson and Kenneth Mackintosh, file dissenting statements. The Report is accompanied by a thoroughly interesting research study of the administration of the deportation laws, prepared by Reuben Oppenheimer. Since this study constitutes the basis of the report, and since the majority of the Commission concur in the conclusions and recommendations set forth in it, the following remarks will deal primarily with the study itself.
Report On Crime And The Foreign Born, Joseph Cohen
Report On Crime And The Foreign Born, Joseph Cohen
Michigan Law Review
That the foreign born, more than the native born, tend to run afoul of the law, especially with respect to the more serious offenses, is a popular doctrine which critical opinion in the field of criminology has long been inclined either to qualify as to essential details or to contradict in toto. Twenty years back the Federal Immigration Commission reported that all the evidence then available indicated a lesser criminality on the part of the immigrant group as a whole. Succeeding studies have supported this conclusion. That an adverse view of the foreign born should persist in the face of …
Aliens-Naturalization-The Promise To Bear Arms, John S. Tennant
Aliens-Naturalization-The Promise To Bear Arms, John S. Tennant
Michigan Law Review
In two recent cases, the Supreme Court has held that citizenship must be denied an applicant who is unwilling to promise unreservedly to bear arms in defense of the United States. One applicant, Douglas Clyde Macintosh, a Professor of Divinity in Yale University, who served for four years in France during the World War, stated that due to religious convictions he was unable to promise beforehand to fight unless, in his own opinion, the war was morally justifiable and in the best interests of humanity. The other, Marie Averil Bland, a minister's daughter who served as a nurse in the …
Recognition Cases In American Courts, 1923-1930, John S. Tennant
Recognition Cases In American Courts, 1923-1930, John S. Tennant
Michigan Law Review
Although the Soviets have maintained complete, uninterrupted, and practically undisputed control over most of the territory of the former Russian Empire for more than ten years, the United States still refuses to recognize the Soviet government as the international representative of Russia. The first general consideration of the legal situation engendered by the policy of our government was contained in an article by Professor Edwin D. Dickinson, "The Unrecognized Government or State in English and American Law,'' which appeared in the Michigan Law Review in 1923. In view of the importance of this matter, and the number of cases involving …
Aliens-Probationary Period In Naturalization
Aliens-Probationary Period In Naturalization
Michigan Law Review
The petitioner, a Norwegian, who was awaiting a final hearing upon his petition for naturalization, married a Norwegian woman in Windsor, Ontario, believing that their marriage would make it possible for her to enter the United States. Upon application to the American consul they were advised that she would have to wait for a vacancy under the Norwegian quota. The wife could speak no English, they had little money, and the husband believed that his employment depended upon his immediate return to Detroit. In desperation they hired a boat and crossed the St. Clair River to the United States where …
Aliens-Naturalization-Doctrine Of The Schwimmer Case
Aliens-Naturalization-Doctrine Of The Schwimmer Case
Michigan Law Review
Applicant, a minister's daughter, and a nurse during the world war, refused to take the oath prescribed by the Commissioner of Naturalization, since her religious scruples forbade her personally bearing arms. Another applicant, a professor of divinity at Yale University, and a chaplain in the Canadian army during the war, stated that, in view of religious convictions he was not willing to bear arms, unless in his own opinion war was ,necessary and in the best interests of humanity. The district courts denied both applications. On appeal, the circuit court of appeals for the second circuit reversed both decisions. Held …

The Meaning Of Nationality In The Recent Immigration Acts, Edwin D. Dickinson
The Meaning Of Nationality In The Recent Immigration Acts, Edwin D. Dickinson
Articles
Professor Dickinson's commentary on the quotas involved in the Immigration Act of 1921 and of 1924. "Until the more recent enactment the meaning of nationality was obscured in a curious ambiguity ... the Act of 1921 made nationality the basis of the quote plan....
"Whether nationality was used in the scientific sense, however, meaning the character created by allegiance to a recognized nation or state, or whether its significance was arbitrary, referring only to such groupings as might be arranged by census makers or other such administrative officials, remained to be determined by judicial construction."
Professor Dickinson then narrates how …
Alien Rights In The United States In Wartime, W C. Hunter
Alien Rights In The United States In Wartime, W C. Hunter
Michigan Law Review
The large number of aliens in the United States presents one of the many problems with which the Government has had to deal in the present war. Technically every immigrant from Germany and Austria-Hungary who has not taken out papers of naturalization and who therefor still owes allegiance to the Fatherland is an enemy alien. But while the great majority of these aliens are naturally sympathetic with German war aims, or at least are not ready to give their wholehearted support to the Allies, they are not a source of danger to the United States. Only a small section have …
Constitutional Background Of The Recent Japanese Anti-Alien Land Bill Controversy, Harriette M. Dilla
Constitutional Background Of The Recent Japanese Anti-Alien Land Bill Controversy, Harriette M. Dilla
Michigan Law Review
The recent contention between the Federal Government and the state of California over the anti-alien land measure raised anew the question as to the conflict of state action with treaty stipulations. It is a problem which, under our constitutional system, may arise at any time and demand an individual solution in every instance. The dilemma which has presented itself repeatedly in American history is this: the states have the reserved right to provide for their public welfare and may exercise their police powers even against a foreign country, while to the Federal Government has been delegated the exclusive jurisdiction over …

Power Of Governor-General To Expel Resident Aliens From Insular Territory Of The United States, Horace Lafayette Wilgus
Articles
In the case of Forbes et al. v. Chuoco Tiaco, decided by the Supreme Court of the Philippine Islands July 30, 1910, 8 Off. Gaz., p. 1778, some of the most interesting, important, and fundamental questions were presented and determined for the time being, but not settled, it is reasonably safe to say until passed upon by the Supreme Court of the United States. The questions involved were whether the Governor General of the Philippine Islands has the power to expel resident Chinese aliens without a hearing or an opportunity to be heard, and whether the Governor, if he exceeded …
