bearing uPOn the type question. Both
these Senators are elassed as advocates
OF a sea-leVel plan. and the move made

PRECEDENT EMBARRASSING

Since the decision of Judge Humphrey
in the packers immunity eases, there
has been great activity among the De-
partment of Justice, the White House
and certain Congressman. and IL is now
understood that the Humphrey decision
will probably result in some legislation.
That the unfortunate effects of that
decision can be overcome by legislation
Is uncertain. II is assured, however.
that every resource will be employed to
prevent the embarrassing condition into
which enforcement of laws regulating
commerce will fall II the Humphrey rule
shall stand.
Waiting on Moody.
President Roosevelt has discussed this
situation frankly with several advisers,
including Congressman. Nothing like a
program has been formed. Everything
Is now waiting on the decision of the
Attorney General upon an appeal from
