Constitutional Law-Due Process-Bill Of Attainder-Loyalty Oaths For City Employee, James I. Huston
Constitutional Law-Due Process-Bill Of Attainder-Loyalty Oaths For City Employee, James I. Huston
Michigan Law Review
In 1948, pursuant to an amendment to its charter, Los Angeles passed an ordinance which provided that all city employees must (1) take an oath that they did not espouse, and had not espoused within five years prior to the effective date of the ordinance, the forceful overthrow of the government; that they were not, nor had they been within the same period, affiliated with a group espousing such aims, and that they would not join any such group while in city employ, and (2) execute an affidavit relating whether they had ever belonged to the Communist Party, and if …
Soviet Civil Law: A Review, Roscoe Pound
Soviet Civil Law: A Review, Roscoe Pound
Michigan Law Review
Here is an excellent and much needed book. Although the enthusiastic wishful thinking about things Russian, fashionable not so long ago, has for the most part abated, the rise of a new social and economic order on a great scale must call for careful study by lawyers and law-makers no less than by historians and economists and students of politics. Now that a generation has been at work constructively since the destructive era of militant communism after the revolution, we need accurate and objectively presented and interpreted information as to how the administration of justice goes on under "the dictatorship …

The Constitutional Significance Of Delegated Legislation In England, J. A. G. Griffith
The Constitutional Significance Of Delegated Legislation In England, J. A. G. Griffith
Michigan Law Review
The Committee on Ministers' Powers defined delegated legislation as the "exercise by a subordinate authority, such as a Minister, of the legislative power delegated to him by Parliament." This definition followed logically from the terms of reference which required the Committee to report "what safeguards are desirable or necessary to secure the constitutional principles of the sovereignty of Parliament and the supremacy of the Law."' Behind these two statements lie certain assumptions which coloured the Report of the Committee and influenced its recommendations. One of these assumptions is that Ministers of the Crown are "subordinate" to Parliament so that any …

Soviet Socialism And Due Process Of Law, John N. Hazard
Soviet Socialism And Due Process Of Law, John N. Hazard
Michigan Law Review
An eminent American legal philosopher has recently written in the pages of this Review that Soviet leaders have discovered some ancient truths-namely, that some respect must be paid, sooner or later, to the principle of legality. In the light of various memoirs and disclosures of persons who have experienced or studied life in Soviet labor camps, such a statement invites incredulity. Can it have any basis in fact? Can it be possible that there is a dualism in Soviet practice, with one set of experiences supporting the conclusion that there is a trend toward legality and another set of experiences …

The Rule Of Clear And Present Danger: Scope Of Its Applicability, Chester James Antieau
The Rule Of Clear And Present Danger: Scope Of Its Applicability, Chester James Antieau
Michigan Law Review
The rule of clear and present danger originated in 1919 in an attempt by Mr. Justice Holmes to formulate a principle for the limitation of liberty with a conscious, intelligent weighing of the opposed societal interests. In the Schenck case, the societal and individual interest in freedom of expression clashed with the societal interest in defense of the state. In conflicts of this kind the criterion has had its most frequent application. The societal interest in preservation of the state was adequately protected by application of the test in prosecutions arising under the Espionage Act of 1917, although Mr. Justice …

The Privy Council And Private Law In The Tudor And Stuart Periods: I, John P. Dawson
The Privy Council And Private Law In The Tudor And Stuart Periods: I, John P. Dawson
Michigan Law Review
It has been often said that the sixteenth and early seventeenth centuries in England were pre-eminently the age of conciliar government. The activities of the Tudor Privy Council extended into every phase of national life and were responsible, more than any other single factor, for the effective organization of an English national state. These activities continued under the first two Stuarts, with no break in institutional development, though they widened the gulf between Crown and people and hastened a revolution.

Pashukanis And Vyshinsky: A Study In The Development Of Marxian Legal Theory, Lon L. Fuller
Pashukanis And Vyshinsky: A Study In The Development Of Marxian Legal Theory, Lon L. Fuller
Michigan Law Review
Reading Andrei Y. Vyshinsky's The Law of the Soviet Union ought to be a stimulating and rewarding experience. It is an exposition. of Soviet legal philosophy and of the theory and practice of Soviet public or "state" law. Throughout it purports to compare the premises that underlie Soviet law with those on which ''bourgeois" legal systems are based. Vyshinsky, a famous world figure and the present minister for foreign affairs of the U.S.S.R., wrote part of the book and supervised compiliation of the remainder. The decision of the American Council of Learned Societies to sponsor a translation of the work …

Michigan Law Review
The International Court of Justice is the principal judicial organ of the United Nations, and the Statute of the Court forms an integral part of the United Nations Charter. The Court is essentially a continuation of the Permanent Court of International Justice, which operated in connection with the League of Nations. Like its predecessor, the Court is composed of fifteen judges, nominated in a manner designed to ensure impartiality and elected by the General Assembly and the Security Council voting separately upon a list of nominees.

Constitutional Law--The President's Loyalty Order--Standards, Procedure And Constitutional Aspects, William J. Schrenk, Jr.
Michigan Law Review
In the most recent of the efforts of the last several years to protect the ranks of officers and employees of the federal government from infiltration by foreign agents and persons whose interests are inimical to those of the United States, President Truman, on March 21, 1947, issued his "Loyalty Order." The first item in the pattern of statutes, orders, and regulations which supplies the background for the controversial Order No. 9835 was the Hatch Act of 1939, by which Congress prohibited federal employees from membership in organizations advocating the overthrow of the constitutional form of government. One year later, …

Constitutional Law--Investigatory Power Of Congress--Validity Of The Un-American Activities Committee Inquiries Into Professional And Political Affiliations, Charles M. Soller
Michigan Law Review
The recent probe into the motion picture industry by the House Committee on Un-American Activities and the resulting indictment of ten witnesses for contempt of Congress have served not only to keep this controversial committee in the publicity spotlight, but have also raised some constitutional questions which have long gone unanswered. The indictment of the ten recalcitrant witnesses under Title 2, section 192, of the United States Code followed their citation for contempt by the House of Representatives for refusal to give direct answers to the Committee's questions: "Are you a member of the Screen Writers Guild?" and "Are you …
