Michigan Law Review

Plaintiff's automobile was damaged when it collided with a horse belonging to the defendant. The animal's running at large upon the highway claimed to be in violation of a statute which required owners of stock and domestic animals to restrain and prevent such animals from running at large. Held, the purpose of the statute is to protect agricultural crops from the ravages of straying animals, and not to protect motorists on the highway; therefore, the plaintiff is not of the class of persons sought to be protected by the statute, nor his injuries of the type sought to be …

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 …

Constitutional Law - Equal Protection Of The Laws - Discrimination Against Transients Vending Purchased Produce, Michigan Law Review

Michigan Law Review

A Minneapolis ordinance required transient dealers in farm produce to procure a license, but exempted farmers selling their own produce. The appellant was fined for selling butter without the necessary transient merchant license as provided by the ordinance. On appeal, appellant contended that the ordinance was unconstitutional because of class discrimination since (1) sellers in established places of business paid one type of fee while the transients paid another, and (2) farmers selling produce grown by themselves were exempt while other transients were required to pay a fee and furnish bond. Held, that the ordinance was unconstitutional because the …

Trade Restraints-Trade Associations-Open Price Agreements- Sugar Institute Case

Michigan Law Review

The Sugar Institute case, decided March 30, 1936, in a unanimous decision by the Supreme Court, has been eagerly awaited by those interested in 'the limits and possibilities, under the anti-trust laws, of so-called self-regulation by industry through permissible activities of trade associations. The decision has been reported to affect some 2,000 trade associations. The case presented such a diversity of practices that any decision in it gave great promise of answering some of the many perplexing questions growing out of the enforcement of the anti-trust laws, which could not heretofore be answered from the decided cases. The fact that …

Constitutional Law-Agricultural Adjustment Act-The General Welfare Clause And The Tenth Amendment

Michigan Law Review

In what is without question the most important decision rendered in recent years the Supreme Court of the United States has swept away the legal basis of the Agricultural Adjustment Administration. The processing tax, an essential part of a plan for the control of production, has been ruled unconstitutional as involving an invasion of the powers reserved to the states. Unlike the case of Schechter Poultry Corporation v. United States, in which the National Industrial Recovery Act was held invalid by a unanimous Court, this pillar of the New Deal's vast recovery program was destroyed by a six-to-three decision, …

Cooperative Associations And The Public, John Hanna

Michigan Law Review

The American Institute of Cooperation at its first summer meeting in Philadelphia in 1925, devoted many hours to a consideration of the definition of agricultural cooperation. Even at that time cooperative associations had been described, if not defined, by federal legislation. The Bureau of Internal Revenue, the War Finance Corporation and the Intermediate Credit Banks, had also been compelled on numerous occasions to decide whether or not a particular association was entitled to the privileges accorded cooperatives. A determination of the nature of a cooperative was implied in the standard marketing acts adopted in nearly all of the American states. …

Power Of Agricultural Co-Operative Associations To Limit Production, Milton J. Keegan

Michigan Law Review

Farmers within recent years have recognized the necessity of combining in larger and still larger numbers, and great cooperative farm organizations have been formed, some of them with sales reaching $100,000,000 each year. These organizations in 1923 did a combined business estimated at $2,200,000,000. "Giant marketing associations, covering whole states, and even groups of states, have been organized with startling rapidity in the great cotton and tobacco growing states." Co-operative marketing legislation has given these groups great and far reaching powers to attain the end of making agriculture more profitable and to secure better returns to the producers of farm …

The American Mutuum, Jerome C. Knowlton

Articles

The delivery of goods that may be accurately designated by number, weight or measure, such as corn or wine, on an undertaking that goods of like kind and quality shall be returned, creates what is known in the civil law as the contract of mutuum, a kind of bailment contract. Text writers on the common law regard such a transaction as a sale and not a bailment. "Where there is no obligation to return the specific article, and the receiver is at liberty to return another thing of equal value, he becomes debtor to make the return, and the title …
