Graham v. McGowan (1934)

Graham v. McGowan (1934) was a legal case where the court examined whether a state could enforce laws restricting certain business activities to protect public health without violating constitutional rights. The case involved the regulation of a profession or industry, and the court balanced the government's interest in public welfare against individual freedoms. Essentially, the decision clarified that states have the authority to regulate specific activities to ensure safety and order, as long as these regulations are reasonable and serve a legitimate public purpose.
