Workmen's Compensation-Right Of Dole Employee To Compensation
Michigan Law Review
The plaintiff, a citizen on the relief rolls of the defendant city, was put to work in accordance with a scrip relief plan under which persons receiving aid were "required" to work if they were able. They were paid a stipulated amount of script per hour, which was exchangeable for goods at the city store. The plaintiff was injured while using a wheelbarrow in line of duty in so working in the city park, and claimed the right to workmen's compensation under the statute as an employee of the city. The court held, by a five-to-three division, that the …

National Industrial Recovery Act - President's Re-Employment Agreement - Injunction By Labor Union
Michigan Law Review
Plaintiff, a Wisconsin labor union, was granted a temporary injunction restraining defendant shoe company, a party to the President's Re-employment Agreement, from "further interference with the right of its employes to organize into unions of their own free will and choice" and from "interfering with . . . the freedom of its employes in the designation of representatives of their own choice for the purpose of bargaining collectively" with the company. The court decided that defendant had violated its agreement with the President to comply with section 7 (a) of the National Industrial Recovery Act. This last was based on …

Corporations - Pledge Of Stock - Statutory Liability Of Pledgee
Michigan Law Review
The owner of shares of bank stock pledged them to defendant corporation to secure a loan. Defendant had the bank issue a new certificate to it in its own name. On the failure of the bank plaintiffs, creditors, sought to hold defendant for "double" liability under statute. Held, under the Montana statute providing that pledgees should not be personally liable as stockholders, defendant was not liable despite the fact that the bank's records did not show it to be a pledgee. Mitchell v. Banking Corp. of Montana, (Mont. 1933) 24 Pac. (2d) 124.

Banks And Banking-Liability Of Drawee Bank For Payment On Forged Indorsement
Michigan Law Review
Plaintiff's depositor gave to A a check, payable to A and B, in return for a chattel mortgage and a note, both signed by A and B. The check was indorsed and presented to the defendant bank for collection. The plaintiff paid the check, debiting the drawer's account. Two years later, when the note came due, it was found that B's name had been forged to the note, the mortgage, and the check. Plaintiff then credited its depositor's account with the amount of the check, and now seeks to recover from the defendant. The court held that …

Constitutional Law - Interstate Commerce - Motor Carrier Operating Within - Single State As A Link In Interstate Transportation, Paul G. Kauper
Michigan Law Review
The plaintiff was engaged in business as a common carrier of goods by motor vehicle. He transported goods between the docks of Los Angeles harbor and points in and around Los Angeles, but all the goods which he carried were originally shipped in from or were consigned to destinations outside the State. His operations, however, were independent of the operations of connecting carriers. The California Railroad Commission ordered the plaintiff to cease operations until he secured a certificate of public convenience and necessity. Held, on review, that the plaintiff was engaged in interstate commerce, and that the Commission's order …

Bills And Notes-Bonds Payable At Office Of Trustee Which Becomes Insolvent After Due Date But Before Bonds Presented, Ralph W. Aigler
Michigan Law Review
In Morley v. University of Detroit, decided May 16, 1933, the Supreme Court of Michigan reaches a conclusion not only of intense interest as a matter of legal doctrine, but also tremendously important, if followed, in determining the location of losses that may run into large sums. The defendant had floated a large bond issue secured by trust mortgage to a Trust Company. Among the obligor's undertakings in the mortgage was one to the effect that it would punctually pay the principal and interest of every bond according to the terms of the bond and coupons and would "deposit …
Bank Reorganization And Recapitalization In Michigan, Ellis B. Merry
Bank Reorganization And Recapitalization In Michigan, Ellis B. Merry
Michigan Law Review
On January 2, 1933, 420 state and 68 national banks were operating in Michigan. On February 13, the Governor of Michigan proclaimed a banking holiday for eight days which was extended in effect on February 22. On March 4, the President proclaimed a national banking holiday until March 9. Under the provisions of the President's proclamation lifting the national banking holiday, 198 state and approximately 30 national banks were reopened by the appropriate authorities as "sound" banks. State bank conservators assumed the management and custody of 215 state banks which did not open, on appointment by the Commissioner of the …
State Taxation Of Interstate Motor Carriers, Paul G. Kauper
State Taxation Of Interstate Motor Carriers, Paul G. Kauper
Michigan Law Review
Though the Supreme Court has never had occasion to express its views as to the gasoline tax in its relation to interstate motor carriers (see first instalment of this article), it has been confronted with a series of cases involving automobile registration taxes. Every State today imposes such taxes. A brief discussion of the theory and nature of such taxes will aid in understanding their legal consequences.
Constitutional Law - Bank Reorganization Legislation - Composition With Depositors And Other Creditors, Maurice S. Culp
Constitutional Law - Bank Reorganization Legislation - Composition With Depositors And Other Creditors, Maurice S. Culp
Michigan Law Review
Twenty States and the federal government now have laws permitting the reorganization and reopening of insolvent or failing banks. The usual statute provides for the reorganization of a bank upon some plan approved by a large majority of the general creditors of the institution; the plan must also have the approval of state banking officials and of a court of general jurisdiction, although the last is by no means a universal requirement. The reorganization, when approved, becomes binding upon all depositors and general creditors of the bank regardless of consent. By the terms of a few statutes, non-assenting creditors are …
Constitutional Law-Strike As Interference With Interstate Commerce
Constitutional Law-Strike As Interference With Interstate Commerce
Michigan Law Review
Whether the federal courts have jurisdiction to apply the mailed fist of the injunction to the settlement of strike disputes sometimes depends on whether the strike is deemed an interference with interstate commerce. Thus, the Supreme Court held in the recent case of Levering & Garrigues v. Morrin that relief must be denied a group of New York structural steel fabricators who sought to enjoin the boycott activities of the iron workers union, because " . . . the sole aim of the conspiracy was to halt or suppress local building operations as a means of compelling the employment of …

Banks And Banking - Liability Of Bank For Paying Check After "Stop-Payment Order"
Michigan Law Review
The plaintiff drew a check on the defendant bank in which he had deposited sufficient funds to meet his order. Before the check was presented, the plaintiff telephoned the defendant bank to stop payment. He described the check as to payee, date, number and amount and in the course of his conversation informed the bank employee that he was "Shude, from the Anchor Steel Co." The countermanding order was applied to the account of the Anchor Steel Co. and plaintiff's check was payed. Held, plaintiff should recover. Shude v. American State Bank, 263 Mich. 519, 248 N. W. …

Bills And Notes - Forged Indorsement - Liability Of Collecting Bank To Drawer
Michigan Law Review
Plaintiff drew a check payable to V. It was stolen by H, plaintiff's employee, and delivered to a confederate who forged V's indorsement and deposited the check in the defendant bank which collected on the instrument. Plaintiff was reimbursed by H's bonding company, and then sought to recover the amount of the check from the defendant. Held, that though plaintiff could ordinarily recover the proceeds of its stolen, undelivered check from the collecting bank, recovery here would be denied because plaintiff had already been reimbursed for its loss. Washington Mechanics' Savings Bank v. District Title …

Bills And Notes-Warranty Of Qualified Indorser -When Instrument "Valueless"
Michigan Law Review
In an action based upon the vendor's warranty in the sale of a note as set forth in the N.I.L., sec. 65 (4), it being alleged that the maker was insolvent and the mortgaged property worth much less than the debt at the time of the transfer of the note and that both such facts were known to the transferor, held, a ruling sustaining a demurrer should be affirmed. Leekley v. Short, (Iowa 1933) 249 N. W. 363.
Constitutional Law - Interstate Commerce - State Regulation Of Motor Carriers - Highway Conservation, Paul G. Kauper
Constitutional Law - Interstate Commerce - State Regulation Of Motor Carriers - Highway Conservation, Paul G. Kauper
Michigan Law Review
In conformity with the Texas statute regulating contract carriers, the plaintiffs applied for permits to operate as contract carriers in interstate commerce. The Texas Railroad Commission denied the application on the grounds that the proposed use of the highways would unreasonably interfere with their use by the general public and would constitute an undue burden on said highways. Held, by a three-judge court, that the Commission was acting within its authority in refusing the application on these grounds, that such refusal was valid as to interstate motor carriers, and that evidence supported the Commission's findings, consequently the bill to …
Conveyances By Husband And Wife Under The Revised Code, Leo Carlin
Conveyances By Husband And Wife Under The Revised Code, Leo Carlin
West Virginia Law Review
The formalities of conveyances involving the property rights of husband and wife have been much simplified in the Revised Code. The simplification has resulted largely from fundamental changes made in property rights arising from the marital relationship, the general effect of which is to place the husband and the wife on a parity with reference to the rights of each in the other's property and to divest the husband of his former control over the wife's disposition of her property. In order to have a full realization of the formalities and complications which have been abandoned, and to differentiate therefrom …

International Law - Validity Of Soviet Decrees
International Law - Validity Of Soviet Decrees
Michigan Law Review
The Soviet government, by a nationalization decree, confiscated all oil lands in Russia, among them the land of plaintiffs, Russian nationals, and sold oil extracted therefrom to defendant. Plaintiffs sought an accounting, claiming that the confiscatory decrees of the unrecognized Soviet government and seizure of oil lands thereunder had no legal effect. A communication from the State Department was introduced: "The Department of State is cognizant of the fact that the Soviet regime is exercising control and power in territory of the former Russian Empire and the Department of State has no disposition to ignore that fact. The refusal of …
