cumulation seems to be going on In

somewhat stiffer in the last few days
but this is thought TO be only a tenn

exist and the broadening movement
on the up side of prices seems to be In
the process of development.

Supreme Bench Declares
RIGHT of Commonwealth
to Engage in Business
for Public Purposes.
Chief Justice Dissents
From Decision Amend
ments to Constitution
Were Legally Adopted.

Bismarck. n. d., Jan. 2.-The North
Dakota state supreme court today held
valid and constitutional the state laws
providing for state industrial program.
The decision validates bond issues for the
Inauguration and maintenance Of state
owned industries and enterprises within
the scope of the program. Chief Justice
A. NJ. Christensen dissented.
BY its action the supreme court
upheld decision rendered by District
Judge w. /. Buessle. Of Burleigh county.
Among the points contested in the
case was one that the laws involved were
in conflict with the fourteenth amend
ment to the federal constitution. Points
raised in the case were said to be the
same as those at issue in suit now
pending in the supreme court Of the
United States.
All Based on Amendments.
In his dissenting opinion Chief Justice
Christensen said:
I'm my opinion this is a so called
friendly lawsuit and does not, in fact.
present an actual controversy. 1t will
be noted that the majority opinion holds,
and the conclusions upon all questions
discussed therein are predicated upon the
proposition. that certain amendment pro-
posed by initiative petition and submitted
to the electors at the general election
of 1918 became a part Of the state con-
stitution prior to the enactment of the
laws which the majority opinion holds
to be valid
Citing previous dissenting opinions
written by himself. the chief justice holds
that such alleged constitutional amend
ments were not consttutionally adopted
and, in fact. never became part of the
constitution of this state"
The action was friendly suit brought
against the state and the industrial com
mission by four farmers.
The court holds that the constitutional
amendments under which the Non
Partisan league administration is carry
ing out its industrial program were
legally adopted and are themselves CON
stitutional.
It upholds the rights Of the state to
engage in business and it is held that
The building and operating of state
owned elevators. FIGURING mills and other
state industries in question is for a pub
lie purpose.
The public purpose is defined by the
court as the promotion of the public
veal, the safety. morals. general welfare.
security. prosperity and contentment of
all inhabitants or residents within
given political division.
It is held that the authorization Of the
governor and industrial commission to fix
the rate of interest and date of maturity
of such bonds, is not the delegation of
legislative power or function. but
merely the conferring of administrative
duty.
