Nlrb Back Pay As A Problem Of Administrative Interpretation Under The Social Security Act, Michael Fooner Aug 1942

Nlrb Back Pay As A Problem Of Administrative Interpretation Under The Social Security Act, Michael Fooner

Michigan Law Review

For several years the question whether NLRB back pay should be deemed "wages" under various administrative aspects of the Social Security Act has been a recurring issue. It is one which is periodically tried in the administrative offices of the Bureau of Internal Revenue, of the Social Security Board, and of the various state unemployment compensation commissions. As far as this writer has been able to determine, the question has been taken to the courts in only one instance, the New York Supreme Court, on appeal from decision of the unemployment insurance administrative and appeal agencies of that state.

Upon appeal the Court of Appeals of the District of Columbia granted the injuction. On certiorari, held, reversed. The complainants have no standing in court to sue. Perkins v. Lukens Steel …

Administrative Adjudication Of Contract Disputes: The Walsh-Healey Act, Walter Gellhorn, Seymour L. Linfield Apr 1939

Administrative Adjudication Of Contract Disputes: The Walsh-Healey Act, Walter Gellhorn, Seymour L. Linfield

Michigan Law Review

The ashes of the National Recovery Act were scarcely cool before evils, sought to be abated by the statute, once more manifested themselves in virulent form. Temptation to increase hours of labor, often with the accompaniment of sharp reductions in wages, and to utilize more freely the services of child laborers, was resisted by many employers. But it was resisted with ever diminishing success in the face of grim competition for a none too voluminous business. Out of disillusion and disappointment was born the Walsh-Healey Act, to salvage from the Blue Eagle at least a few of its less conspicuous …

Businesses Subject To The National Labor Relations Act, Joseph H. Mueller Jun 1937

Businesses Subject To The National Labor Relations Act, Joseph H. Mueller

Michigan Law Review

Justice Holmes once remarked that, "the life of the law has not been logic; it has been experience." This observation is illustrated in a striking manner by the recent change in the attitude of the Supreme Court with respect to Congressional regulation of labor relations in the field of production. Holding that the National Labor Relations Act applied to the steel, automobile, and clothing industries, as well as to the agencies of interstate commerce, the Court restated existing doctrine relating to interstate commerce, giving it new direction and content.

Organized Labor And The Recovery Act, Emmett B. Mcnatt Apr 1934

Organized Labor And The Recovery Act, Emmett B. Mcnatt

Michigan Law Review

The enactment of the National Industrial Recovery Act last June inevitably has brought to the fore a number of questions which as yet remain unanswered, including those connected with the application and interpretation of Section 7(a) of the Recovery Act, the subject of this article. Under this section, hailed by labor as a "new Magna Charta," employees are apparently given two interrelated rights - the right to organize with no discrimination against them by employers as a result thereof, and the right to collective bargaining through representatives of their own choosing. Employers are prohibited from interfering with such rights through …

Due Process Of Law In State Labor Legislation, Fowler Vincent Harper Jun 1928

Due Process Of Law In State Labor Legislation, Fowler Vincent Harper

Michigan Law Review

With this material in mind, is it possible to arrive at any useful conclusions as to what constitutes due process of law in labor legislation? In each group of cases, there seem to be two distinct, though inseparable functions of the judicial process of reviewing the legislation in question. The courts, in brief, are arriving at conclusions both of fact and of law. The impression was, at one time prevalent that the extent of review of certain types of labor legislation was limited to the reasonableness of the' statute as respects the end sought and the means of attaining that …
