property and services for the satisfaction
of
such urgent
needs
of the State
as
arise chiefly in
war
or
other periods of emer-
gency. In the case of either country the author describes
the
power of requisition and, in particular, the occasions for
its
exercise
;
the objects
of
requisition
;
the exercise of the requisi-
tory power (authorities with power
of
requisition, procedure,
etc.)
;
and the right to indemnity. The material has been pains-
takingly collected and will no doubt be useful
for
those engaged
in
broader studies
of
comparative administrative law.

editing of this valuable little book is now in the capable
hands
of Dr. Charlesworth who, in
his
preface, discusses the
bearing
of the Cohen Committee's Report on private companies.
He
has
added useful sections on the Liabilities (War-Time
Adjustments) Acts,
1941
and
1944,
which apply
to
private
companies, and also on the important topic
of
income
tax
in
relation to private companies.
