CONSTITUTIONAL LAW - BITUMINOUS COAL CONSERVATION ACT OF 1935 - CONGRESSIONAL POWER UNDER THE COMMERCE CLAUSE TO REGULATE LABOR CONDITIONS IN LOCAL INDUSTRY AND FIX THE PRICE OF SALES IN INTERSTATE COMMERCE

Authors

Abstract

By its sweeping decision invalidating the Bituminous Coal Conservation Act of 1935, the Supreme Court precluded any future use of the commerce clause by Congress as a basis for federal regulation of labor conditions in local industry, whether on the theory that production is interstate commerce or that labor conditions directly affect interstate commerce.
