The Present Status Of The Sherman Act, Robert W. Harbeson Dec 1940

The Present Status Of The Sherman Act, Robert W. Harbeson

Michigan Law Review

Two circumstances may be advanced by way of justification for the present addition to the voluminous literature dealing with the Sherman Anti-Trust Act. First, the Supreme Court has in recent months handed down two decisions involving the application of the Sherman Act to the oil industry, which are of great importance both because of their sweeping application to marketing practices in that industry and because of the directness with which they raise certain issues of economic theory and policy. Second, the fiftieth anniversary of the Sherman Act on July 2, 1940 provides an appropriate occasion for a review of the …

Michigan Law Review

Defendant operated an independent gasoline station. He gave to each cash customer purchasing five gallons of gasoline at the generally prevailing prices a drinking glass worth less than five cents. For this act he was charged with violating a statute prohibiting the giving away of any commodity for the purpose of promoting the sale of any other commodity. Defendant moved that the information be quashed and a verdict be directed of not guilty on the ground that the statute was unconstitutional. From an order denying the motion and finding him guilty, defendant appeals. Held, that the giving of a …


Trade Restraints - Due Process - Interference With Liberty To Fix Sale Price Of Gasoline, Michigan Law Review Jun 1940

Trade Restraints - Due Process - Interference With Liberty To Fix Sale Price Of Gasoline, Michigan Law Review

Michigan Law Review

In 1925 the state of Iowa enacted a statute requiring all distributors of gasoline in the state, wholesale or retail, to post in plain sight the price at which they intended to sell their gasoline, setting out all taxes thereon. They were then bound to sell at this price to all buyers. Defendant was such a dealer, and although he posted the price, he failed to abide by it as to all sales and was charged with violating the statute. The lower court sustained defendant's demurrers, holding the statute unconstitutional as a denial of due process and equal protection of …

Unfair Competition - Truthful Disparagement Of A Trader's Reputation, W. Wallace Kent

Michigan Law Review

Plaintiff sued for treble damages under the Anti-Trust Act, alleging that the defendants had conspired and combined to drive him out of the securities business. Plaintiff alleged that to accomplish their purpose the defendants published statements as to plaintiff's "criminal record." The facts are not clear, but it appears from the report that the crimes in question were committed twenty years previously, during plaintiff's youth. The trial court instructed the jury that "if that information was true [as to plaintiff's criminal record], the Better Business Bureau, regardless of its purpose in disseminating the information, would not be liable, is not …

Plaintiff brought suit for an injunction restraining infringement.

These cigars are made in the United States and only of United States tobacco." Held, the name so used might result in misrepresentation and its use must …

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.

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 popular orchestra leader made certain electrical transcriptions (not records) of unique interpretations of different musical numbers which were distributed, for a consideration, for radio broadcast on the Ford Motor Program. A notice appears on the transcription that it is to be used only by a distributee station and then only on the Ford Program. Defendant, who is not a distributee, broadcast one of these transcriptions without the plaintiff's consent. Plaintiff sued to enjoin rendition of the transcriptions. Held, that the injunction should be granted because there was a proprietary interest in the plaintiff's rendition of these musical numbers, …

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 - Constitutionality Of Statute Prohibiting Price Discrimination By Purchasers - "Actual Cost'' Provision Vague And Indefinite, Robert Meisenholder

Michigan Law Review

Defendant was charged with violating a statute which provided that purchasers of certain farm products for manufacture or resale should not discriminate in prices between sections and between individual sellers. The statute required the purchaser to deduct full transportation costs from the purchase price paid or to deduct the actual costs of hauling from the point of purchase to the locality of manufacture or resale. No definition of actual cost was set out. Held, two justices dissenting, the term "actual cost" was so vague and indefinite that the statute denied due process of law. State v. Northwest Poultry & …

Constitutional Law - Public Utilities - Standing Of Public Utilities To Challenge The Constitutionality Of The Tva, Michigan Law Review

Michigan Law Review

Eighteen electric utilities, with non-exclusive franchises and in direct competition with the TVA in selling power wholesale to municipalities, cooperatives and large industrial plants, sought to enjoin the activities and projects of the TVA and its directors as being unconstitutional and as contravening their rights under the fifth, ninth, and tenth amendments. Fraud, duress, and misrepresentations in securing customers were charged. A court of three judges dismissed the bill, holding that there was no fraud or duress and that the TVA was constitutional. Fourteen utilities appealed to the United States Supreme Court. Held, with Justices Butler and McReynolds dissenting, …

Each admission ticket contained a stipulation that the holder was not to transmit or aid in transmitting reports of the games outside the park. The athletic club, the sponsors, and the N.B.C. jointly brought an action for an injunction against …

Trade Marks And Trade Names -- Injunction Against Non-Competitors, John C. Griffin

Michigan Law Review

Plaintiff, Hugo Stein, began business in 1906 as Hugo Stein Cloak Company. Starting in the same year, defendant, S. B. Stein, continuously transacted a jewelry business variously as an individual, a partnership and finally, since 1931, as a corporation. Immediately prior to defendant's incorporation, plaintiff moved to within four doors of defendant. Plaintiff for thirty years consistently advertised as "Stein's," while defendant never did so, at least without additional description, until 1936, at which time it changed its store front and newspaper advertisements to correspond to plaintiff's. There was evidence that numerous people inquired at plaintiff's for jewelry. Held, …

Michigan Law Review

Defendants had formerly been employed as solicitors for the plaintiff, a corporation engaged in the business of selling teas, coffees, spices, and other products at retail. There were no restrictive covenants in the employment contract and within a few months after leaving plaintiff's employ, defendants entered into a similar business in competition with the plaintiff and solicited customers with whom they became acquainted while in plaintiff's service. Plaintiff appealed from an order sustaining a demurrer to its bill which sought to restrain defendants from such soliciting. Held, order affirmed. In the absence of a contract and where the employee …
