COURT RULES ON UNION LAW
Justice Harlan Holds Act Prohibiting
Railroads from DISCRIMINATE
ing UncOhstitutionaI.

WASHINGTON. Jan. 1.-THE consti-
tutionality OF the act OF congress on June
/. 1885, prohibiting railroad companies en-
gagged in Interstate commerce from dis
eliminating against members of labor
organizations in the matter of employment
was called into question BY the case Of
William Adair versus the United States
which was decided by the supreme court
OF the United States today favorable to
Adair. The opinion was by Justice Harlan
and held the law to be repugnant to the
constitution.
The court held that Adsir, as master me-
chanic OF the Louisville & Nashville Rail-
road company, had a right to discharge an
employe because he was a member of a
labor organization just as it was the en-
plpye's right TO quit such employment be-
cause of his membership in such organiza-
tion. Such a course the decision saya
might be unwise, but regarded as a mere
matter OF right, there could be no doubt
Congress could not under the constitution
authorize a violation OF contracts under
the glIlse OF protecting interstate com
merce
Judge McKenna delivered a dissenting
opinion favorable to the law, in which he
said the courts decision is along very mar
row lines.
Justice Holmes also expressed the opin-
ion thta the law should be construed an
constitutional He thought that the right
to make contracts had been stretched to
the limit by the courts decision in this
case. That congress had a right to so
legislate as to encourage labor organiza-
tions was another suggestion Of Justice
Holmes.
