Physicians And Surgeons-When Physician Obliged To Disclose Information Gained Through Doctor-Patient Relation
Michigan Law Review
In April of this year a Minnesota physician, Dr. Clayton E. May, treated for gunshot wounds a certain undesirable person, John Dillinger, very much in demand by the police. He further neglected to inform the police concerning his ministrations, and as a result, was tried in a federal court on a charge of harboring a fugitive wanted under a federal warrant, found guilty, and sentenced to serve two years in a penitentiary and to pay a fine of $1,000. Said a prominent English medical journal in commenting on the case: " . . . colleagues in every country will applaud …
Searches And Seizures - Reasonableness Of Arrest - Use Of Evidence Secured Through Unreasonable Arrest- Statutory Changes
Michigan Law Review
Police officers patrolling Detroit streets in a radio-equipped police car stopped a taxicab in which defendants Stein and Massie were riding.

It was held that …
Constitutional Law - Federal Control Over Crime - Scope Of Power To Regulate Crime Under The Commerce Clause
Michigan Law Review
The increase of criminal activities interstate in scope, and the growing dissatisfaction with state enforcement of local laws, have focused attention of late upon the power of Congress to regulate crime under the commerce clause of the Constitution. Outstanding among proposals for congressional legislation are the following: making interstate felonies federal offenses; punishing criminals who flee across state lines after committing a crime; and restricting the sale and transportation of firearms. Most, if not all, of this suggested legislation must rest on the commerce clause for its validity. We purpose here to discuss the nature and scope of this power, …
