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 …

Washington Legislation—1941, J. Grattan O'Bryan, Leslie J. Ayer, Judson F. Falknor, Warren L. Shattuck, John B. Sholley, John W. Richards

Washington Law Review

In undertaking to survey the work of the 1941 legislature the aim has not been to attain complete coverage. Space limitations and the time factor have dictated that only certain phases be considered and that brevity rather than complete analysis be the guide. In selecting topics for discussion the aim has been to give attention to those statutes which are likely to be of greatest concern to practicing lawyers. At the outset this meant that virtually all of the largest group of statutes, those dealing with the powers of governmental units, be eliminated. Of the remaining statutes all could not …

The Advent Of The Administrative Process And Its Future, Thomas Frank Konop

Journal Articles

Every government exercises three governmental powers E that are necessary for its existence. They are Taxation, Police Power, and the Power of Eminent Domain. Every government, however crude, or whatever we may call it, must have the power first to make the law, which is called the legislative power; second, it must have the power to declare what the law is, which is the judicial power; and third, it must have the power to enforce the law and this is called the executive power.

In the very early governments such as the government of the clan or tribe, these three …

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 …

Securities Legislation - Civil Liabilities On Account Of False Registration Statement - Limitations Of Actions - Licenses, Michigan Law Review

Michigan Law Review

Plaintiff, purchaser of stock in Condor Pictures, Inc., brought an action against the officers of the corporation and the auditors who certified the registration statement, to recover damages under section II of the Securities Act of 1933. The action was founded upon misrepresentations and omissions in the registration statement, concerning a lease made by Condor Pictures, Inc., which the auditors failed to set up as a contingent liability. The defendants at the time of the suit stipulated that the stock had no market value, but the plaintiff did not offer any evidence of the actual value of the stock beyond …

History ETDs

The purpose of this thesis is to identify indications of opposition to statehood within New Mexico between the years 1888 and 1902. The sources of information were newspapers of the territory published during those years, government documents, letters and several other miscellaneous sources.

The second chapter …

Constitutional Law - Delegation Of Legislative Power - Agricultural Marketing Agreement Act, Edward S. Biggar

Michigan Law Review

The declared policy of the Agricultural Marketing Agreement Act of 1937 was to raise the purchasing power of agricultural commodities and, at the same time, to protect the interest of the consumer. The Secretary of Agriculture was empowered to issue orders which, in his belief, based upon a consideration of evidence introduced at a public hearing, would tend to effectuate this policy. Certain minimum requirements as to the provisions of the orders were imposed. For any order to be effective, it must have been approved by a proportion of the producers of the commodity concerned. Pursuant to the provisions of …

Trade Restraints-Fair Trade Acts - Use Of Trading Stamps, William L. Howland

Michigan Law Review

The plaintiff filed a bill in equity to restrain by injunction an alleged violation of the Pennsylvania Fair Trade Act. The violation charged was the issuance by the defendant retailer of yellow trading stamps, when requested, on all purchases of merchandise, including trade-marked articles manufactured by the plaintiff in relation to which, as the defendant well knew, the plaintiff had made contracts fixing the resale price. The chancellor dismissed the bill. Held, judgment affirmed. The issuance of the trading stamps was not a violation of the Fair Trade Act. Even assuming that it was a violation, the invasion was …

A General Review Of The Work Of The 1939 Washington Legislature, Eugene C. Luccock, Max Kaminoff

Washington Law Review

Probably a careful attempt to evaluate legislative activity should take into consideration the opportunities for enacting bad laws which were avoided and the opportunities for enacting good laws which were passed by. A comparative analysis of what the legislature has refused to do as well as what it has done might better reflect the operation of political democracy at work than a bare survey of the "end products", so to speak, as reflected in the paper and ink additions to the body of existing law. In the instance of the twenty-sixth session of the Washington Legislature, the latter consist of …

Securities Legislation - Securities Act - Stop Order Proceedings - Administrative Tests Of Materiality, Bertram H. Lebeis

Michigan Law Review

With a view toward correcting many of the abuses which had accompanied the distribution of securities, the Congressional mandate embodied in the Securities Act of 1933, together with the regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission adopted in pursuance thereof, require the publication of much information previously withheld from the investing public. The basic objective of the act is the full disclosure of every essentially important element attending issues of securities in interstate commerce or through the mails, and to that end the commission is empowered to issue a stop order suspending the effectiveness of a registration statement if it …
