n. Y. JUDGE DOUBTS
DRY ACTS VALIDITY

NEW YORK, Nov. s.--Federal Judge
L. A Hand expressed genuine doubt"
as to the validity of the wartime pro-
hibition, in the course of a trial here.
This has already been declared un-
constitutional by a United States
court in Kentucky.
The opinion was given during the
hearing of arguments on a motion to
vacate an Injunction classifying the
Eastern Hotel as public nuisance"
under the voistead law.
The question of the validity OF this
law was put aside by the judge as not
coming within the scope of the hear
ing, but considerable Importance was
attached to his words as he reserved
decision last week upon motion to
have wartime prohibition declared
unconstitutional
Meaning Only an Issue.
In today's case Judge Hand said:
'%Of course, the act may be invalid.
There is to my mind a very genuine
doubt about that. The act, may be
invalid, but we are not discussing it's
validity. We are discussing its mean
ing. It seems to me quite clear that
its meaning is that 1t shall run be-
yond the present time because the
freSlOeht mas not mdOe any state
ment that the conclusion of the war
may mean the conclusion of hostili-
ties" o..
Judge Hand then asked both sides
IL they could furnish any authorities
defining the war powers OF Congress.
Assistant United States Attorney
Earl B. Barnes, arguing for the Gov
ernment said that to his knowledge
there were none. He asserted that
such war powers, however, arise from
direct powers given Congress to de-
clare war.
Says Congress Retains Power.
These powers imply that Congress
has the right to successfully prose-
cute to final determination all phases
of the war" he said.
Suppose the war was declared over
and ended last July, but there still
existed the food crisis. labor unrest
and other situations directly growing
out of the war-would not Congress
have the right to Iegislate for the
nations safety any form of regula-
ton tending to the public good%
The end OF the war does not neces-
sarily mark the beginning Of the
period at which the acts of Congress
again become justiciable questions"
Mr.. Barnes continued THE acts of
Congress, as the result of the war
may, because of the wars conse-
quences, still be regarded AS political
questions. Also, if Congress has the
power to enact certain legislation. it
likewise has the power to determine
the length of the effectiveness OF it,"

For weeks Mr.. and Mrs. Ray
Roberts faced the danger Of con-
tracing influenza by assisting those
sick with the disease in and near
Morris, and when their services were
no longer needed here they went to
Chok1o to help those in distress
there. For the past three weeks
they have been in the vicinity Of
Chok1o nursing influenza and pneu-
mon1a patients and three different
times they were taken down with
Influenza but each time they kept
up their work or relieving those
worse off then themselves. They are
certainly entitled to great deal of
praise for the service they are rend-
ering to their fellow-men.
