Creditors' Rights And Security Transactions -- 1960 Tennessee Survey, Forrest W. Lacey

Vanderbilt Law Review

Two cases involving mechanic's liens were decided during the period under survey. Rowland v. Lowe' presented the question of the validity of a material men's lien against the owner of land subject to a contract of sale which required the purchaser to erect improvements on the land. In order to protect the vendor's lien, which was to be retained in the deed, the contract provided:

"The purchaser obligates himself to pay all sums for labor and materials in the construction of the improvements on said lot, and in no event shall there be any lien on the lot of ground …

Fifteen-Year Survey Of Corporate Developments, 1944-1959, Miguel A. De Capriles

Vanderbilt Law Review

The foregoing survey, it is believed, amply demonstrates the kaleidoscopic variety of the corporate developments of the past fifteen years, even though for obvious reasons much of the detail has had to be omitted. General conclusions are difficult to draw. It seems likely that the success of capitalist enterprise in this, period and the self-imposed improvement in standards of corporate. Fanchon & Marco, Inc. v. Paramount Pictures, 202 F.2d 731 (2d Cir. management have retarded the underlying trend toward expansion of the role of government in the regulation of economic affairs. There has been no occasion for new dramatic statutory …

Regulation Of Motor Carrier Securities, Eugene T. Liipfert, John L. Mechem

Vanderbilt Law Review

The origins of the intercity trucking industry were humble. The development of the motor truck and of an intercity highway system which made its use in the transportation of freight practicable led many enterprising individuals to set themselves up as intercity truckers during the decade between 1925 and 1935. Capital requirements were minimal. The initial investment was frequently no more than the down payment on the motor vehicles employed. In the early stages of development, the typical motor carrier was a sole proprietorship, partnership or family-held corporation which relied for its financing on retained earnings of the business and hand-to-mouth …

State "Blue Sky" And Federal Securities Laws, Edward R. Hayes

Vanderbilt Law Review

The subject of state and federal regulation of securities is one with which most lawyers have little familiarity. It may not have been discussed in any of their law school courses;' and their practice may have involved the organization and financing of few if any corporations. This lack of familiarity results in unawareness of the "extent to which security transactions are subject to regulation, a sometimes erroneous assumption that securities may be issued lawfully by the occasional corporate (and even noncorporate) client without necessity for complying with statutory requirements, and an overlooking of possible rights of clients who may have …

Manipulation Of Share Priorities, Alfred F. Conard

Vanderbilt Law Review

Investors, who seldom read law reviews, continue to put their money into preferred stocks. In the last five reported years, approximately 3 billion of dollars worth of preferred shares have been offered to the public, or more than a third of the value of all stock offered. Can Mr. Becht and the investors both be right?

Presumably the investors are directing their attention to different aspects of preferred stock than is Mr. Becht. Like other lawyers, he is considering what managements can do to preferred shareholders if they do their worst. His conclusions are based on the records of cases …

The Investment Advisers Act Of 1940, W.T. Mallison Jr.

Vanderbilt Law Review

There were many questionable business methods which could be used by advisers prior to the passage of the Act. In 1939, it was not uncommon for an adviser to arrange that one client buy a certain security and that another sell the same one. Where the adviser operated on the then commonly accepted basis of receiving a proportion of profits made by his clients, he could not lose by using this technique. The adviser's sole concern was to seek new clients to replace those whose assets or credulity were exhausted. Adviser custody of clients' funds was the basis of most …
