Russian Deserters May Not Land.

The case Of Michael Norwaia Mikolarsky
and Felix Kosevitch the two deserters from
the Russian navy detained at San Francis
co by the immigration authorities because
the men were found to be suffering from
trachoma. has been before the Department
OF Commerce and Labor for over a month
and the decision has been reached that
there is no way by which they can legally
be permitted to land Secretary Metcalf
said today that the fullest investigation had
been made and that numerous examinations
Of the two men proved concusively the
existence Of trachoma and that there was
no prospect of any Improvement in their
condition, although time had been given for
such Improvement to develop in the hope
of allowing them to land.
Much pressure has been brought to bear
on the President and Secretary Metcalf by
various Jewish societies in the mems behalf,
but in case OF this kind. the Secretary
said, the law is mandatory, and there Is no
appeal from the board of special inquiry
which reported the facts. The men accord
ingly will be sent back to the port of en-
barkation by the steamship company which
brought them to this country.

In principle the irspectorship of the

an agreement has been reached in princi-
pie. fresh differences in the particulars
seem to arise hourly, requiring patience

pared from the reports made to the chief
Of engineers of the United states army by
engineer officers Of south Atlantic gulf
ports. showing the nature OF the work being
done by contractors and the prices paid
The evidence was designed by the defense
TO prove that the cost to the government OF
the work done by Greene and Gaynor urdcr
the Carter administration was not exoTbi-
tant and would successfully stand comps1i-
son with that done at the thrty-one other
cities and towns from which reports were
made
The witness at one point named St.15 a
yard for mattresses eighteen inches thick as
the average cost or construction ar the

between 1.-The House bill. which gives un-
restricted Jurisdiction to the courts. and
amendments like his own and Mr.. Bailey s,
which provide only for the restricted ju-
rtsdiction of the courts.
Bailey Agrees With Knox.
Mr. Bailey replied by declaring that he
could not add anything to what Mr. Knox
had said on that point. agreeing with him
entirely He expressed the opinion that
when man fears to take his chances in
a fair trial he Is not sure of the justice of
ence between himself and the Pennsyl-
vania senator on the point of interlocutory
DEGREES.
Mr. Fulton contended that the bill as
1t came from the House does not deny the
right of an appeal to the courts unless the
rates established are confiscatory, ana
therefore urged that 1t is not correct TO
say that the Knox and Bailey amendments
restrict rather than enlarge he right OF
review
Mr. Bailey did not accept this construc-
ton, saying that his amendment does not
have this effect.
Coneeding that the courts must Inevitably
deal with the rates fixed by the commission
Mr.. Daniel asked whether 1t was not posi-
bic that cases could be taken TO the courts
on writs of certiorari.
Mr. Bailey admitted that for expedition
this means might be the best. but express
ed doubt as TO the method of procedure as
between court and commission.
Mr.. Rayner said that the decisions o. the
Supreme Court are to the effect that the
writ of certorarl cannot be used to take
a case from administrative to judicial
body, but MFR. Daniel contended that such
authority could be conferred by legislation
Mr. Patterson pointed out the dificultieS
in the way of all legal proceedings. inciud-
Ing the delays inseparable from appeals
and like proceedings, and suggested that all
the problems might be solved by CONSTITUTE
ing the interstate commerce commission an
Interstate commerce court. Such a change
would, he said do away with introductory
orders. because appeals could be made d.
rect TO the Supreme Court.
Death of Mr.. Bailey's Father.
While Mr. Patterson was speaking Mr..
Bailey who still held the floor, left the
chamber and when the Colorado senator
finished Mr.. TilIman announced that Mr..
Bailey had Just received news of the death
of his father and could not therefore pro-
coed with the debate.
The announcement created a momentary
hush in the chamber. but 1t not peg
mitted to put an end to the controversy.
Mi Hepburn took the fioor and raised the
question whether railroad service Is prop
erly in the sense intended by the constitG-
tional provision which protects property
from being taken without due process OF
law.
Mr. TiIiman suggested that Mr.. Hepburn
present an amendment covering the cues
