Labor Law - Secondary Picketing - Unity Of Interest Between Manufacturer And Retailer, Michigan Law Review

Michigan Law Review

A manufacturer of burglar alarm systems installed one in complainant's retail haberdashery store, and entered into an agreement, renewable annually, for maintenance of the apparatus.

Boycott--Conclusions Or Emotions

Michigan Law Review

One fertile source of friction growing out of the eternal struggle between capital and labor is the boycott. Standing out in definite relief for scarcely more than a generation, its effectiveness has led to interminable litigation. As might be expected, the boycott pronouncements of the courts in this formative period have had to undergo the most searching challenge and scrutiny. That this scrutiny will be focused upon the results of the recent first impression case before the Iowa supreme court cannot be doubted. See Ellis v. Journeyman Barbers I.
