Antitrust During National Emergencies: I, Thomas K. Fisher

Michigan Law Review

In this article an examination will be made of the effect of previous national emergencies upon the enforcement and substantive content of the antitrust law. The extent to which the problem as presently constituted has counterparts in the past will be noted. Following the historical survey, consideration will be given to the several steps already taken to accommodate the law to the conditions of an economy in a war of world dimension. In conclusion, suggestions will be made for resolving certain aspects of the problem as yet unsatisfactorily answered. Before entering into a discussion of the past emergencies, a brief …

Trade Restraints - Associations Of Manufacturers To Combat Style Piracy - Illegal Restraints Of Trade, Michigan Law Review May 1941

Trade Restraints - Associations Of Manufacturers To Combat Style Piracy - Illegal Restraints Of Trade, Michigan Law Review

Michigan Law Review

In order to combat the practice of "style piracy" among competitors, a large number of producers of women's coats and dresses formed an association, whose membership was composed of designers, manufacturers, and distributors. Producers adjudged copyists by the association were not permitted membership. The clear purpose of the association was primarily to boycott retailers who refused to deal solely with members of the association, and secondarily to boycott, and eliminate competition from, the copyists. In addition there was provided a system of registration for designs made by members, and a judicial type of machinery for protecting the designers' interest therein. …

Some Problems In The Enforcement Of The Antitrust Laws, Wendell Berge Feb 1940

Some Problems In The Enforcement Of The Antitrust Laws, Wendell Berge

Michigan Law Review

There has been much discussion through the years about the evils of monopoly, monopolistic practices, and unreasonable restraints of trade. We have always paid lip service to the ideal of free competition. But we have done little in this country to cope with these evils. We have done little to make our competitive ideal effective.

Patents - Right Of Patentee To Restrict Manufacture, Use, And Sale Of Patented Device, Collins E. Brooks May 1939

Patents - Right Of Patentee To Restrict Manufacture, Use, And Sale Of Patented Device, Collins E. Brooks

Michigan Law Review

The patent laws of the United States grant to a patentee the "exclusive right to make, use, and vend the invention or discovery . . . throughout the United States and the Territories thereof . . . . " Much litigation has arisen over the extent of the monopoly thus granted a patentee, but even at this late date it is not too clearly defined. The question came up anew in the case of General Talking Pictures Corp. v. Western Electric Co., where the owner of a patent on a device used in sound reproduction and broadcast reception had …


Trade Restraints-Trade Associations-Open Price Agreements- Sugar Institute Case May 1936

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 …

Federal Anti-Trust Law And The National Industrial Recovery Act, Howard E. Wahrenbrock Jun 1933

Federal Anti-Trust Law And The National Industrial Recovery Act, Howard E. Wahrenbrock

Michigan Law Review

The economic struggle for existence - the competitive system - which has been principally depended upon to equate the production and consumption of economic goods, is not self-sustaining. Extreme forms of that struggle - engrossing, forestalling, regrating, contracts in restraint of trade, monopoly, unfair competition, to mention some forms at the higher stages of legal development - have had to be restrained by law. Their restriction has been called for to protect the poor and economically weak from oppression by the rich and economically powerful; under a system of complete laissez faire, competition would bring about the elimination of the …

Unfair Competition-Fixing Resale Price May 1926

Unfair Competition-Fixing Resale Price

Michigan Law Review

With the development of our economic structure new problems have constantly arisen to harass the governmental agencies which have sought to protect the public from being dominated by successful traders. Apprehension of the dangers of monopolistic control have lead both courts and legislative bodies to place a ban upon attempts to create monopolies by artificial combinations. The purpose was to give the people a market in which prices would be controlled by the relation of supply to demand, by forcing independent tradesmen into competition with each other. The effect of this plan was to delay the coming of a time …

Michigan Law Review

Carriers - Second Cummins Amendment - It was seven years after the Carmack Amendment of the Hepburn Act of i9o6 before the Supreme Court began that series of decisions, extending from Adams Express Co. v. Croninger, 226 U. S. 491 (1913), to George N. Pierce Co. v. Wells, Fargo & Co., 236 U. S. 278 (1915), which directly resulted in the First Cummins Amendment of March, 1915. One has only to read those cases, reviewed in 13 Micn. L. REv. 59o, and other notes referred to in 17 MICH. L. Rzv. 183, to see that the language of the Cummins …


New Interpretation Of The Sherman Act, Clarence E. Eldridge Dec 1914

New Interpretation Of The Sherman Act, Clarence E. Eldridge

Michigan Law Review

What has been said in the preceding part of this discussion addresses itself to the proposition that the SHERMAN Act does not mean what the District Court assumed it to mean. Naturally, such a negative discussion must be preliminary to a consideration of the more .comprehensive question "What does the SHERMAN ACT mean?" For, of course, even if the theory of the law upon which the District Court based its judgment was erroneous, still that fact would be of little or no practical importance if any tenable theory of the law were to justify the judgment.

Some Reflections On The Law As To Monopoly Of Trade, S S. Gregory

Michigan Law Review

Paul and the other apostles were brought before the Council of Israel for preaching the doctrines of Christ contrary to the mandates of that body. Gamaliel, a Pharisee and a doctor of the law, stood up in the Council and said: "Ye men of Israel, take heed to yourselves what ye intend to do as touching these men. And now I say unto you, Refrain from these men, and let them alone; for if this counsel or this work be of men, it will come to nought; but if it be of God, ye can not overthrow it; lest haply …


Recent Interpretation Of The Sherman Act, George W. Wichersham Nov 1911

Recent Interpretation Of The Sherman Act, George W. Wichersham

Michigan Law Review

The only legitimate end and object of all government is the greatest good of the greatest number of the people. The means by which this end is attained vary in accordance with the experience and the temperament of the people. Government is necessarily more or less of an experiment at all times, but as men have been making similar experiments ever since the dawn of recorded history, the waste of repeating unsuccessful experiments of the past may be avoided by studying the records of the results of earlier effort; and, other things being equal, all thoughtful persons will agree, that …
