VALIDITY Of BALL
RENT ACT IN DOUBT
Justice Dept. Officials Believe,
However, Lever Law Edict
Won't Void It.

Officials of the Department OF Jus
tice and various Washington lawyers
today are studying closely the su-
preme Court decision yesterday rem
dering the Lever food control act un-
constitutional, to determine what the
court decision on the Ball rent act
will be.
Opinion differs as to whether the
decision in the Lever act makes the
Ball act unconstitutional or not. but
apparently the majority OF lawyers
believe the Ball act will go the same
way a. the Lever act
1t is pointed out that all prohteer-
ing legislation during the war period
was based upon the definition OF "rea :
sonable charge" by certain consu-
tuted authorities. and that the per-
sons affected by such legislation were
given no advance notice of what rea-
sonable charges were.
While there are certain marked dif-
ferences between the Ball and Lever
acts, the general trend Of each Is the
same. Department of Justice OFFICIALS.
however, do not think the Lever ace
decision necessarily voids the Ball act
