SUPREME COURT
SESSIONS To Be
RESUMED TODAY

Washington, March 5.-A num-
hor Of exceptionally important
cases are listed for argument in
the supreme court this week.
Prominent among these are the
cases from North Carolina de-
signed to determine the constitu-
tionality of the child labor act.
The government had selected the
case against Atherton Mills as a
test case for the group of actions.
but later substituted the case of
Drexe1 Furniture company. The
decisions in the lower federal
courts in these cases all have
been adverse to the contention
of the government that imposi-
ton of an excise tax upon the
products of a factory or mine
which employed child labor was
valid exercise of taxing powers
of the government. Charles Pom
ii, of recent notoriety in Boston,
because of his exploits in pro-
noting get rich quick" schemes,
will be heard through counsel in
his effort to escape trial in Mas
sachusetts courts for alleged vio-
lation of state statutes. Ponzi
now is serving sentence in the
federal prison.

late the price of natural gas, ac-
cording to the pressure under
which it is furnished, brought by
the Oklahoma Natural Gas COM
pany against Oklah IA and
others, whether n railroad must

distribution of cars among coal

narcotic act, and procedure to be

against Frank Palint and 9TH
ers and Morris Behrman, brought
from New York City, and what
constitutes a soldier in the appli-
cation of half rates on railroads,
contested by the Louisville and
Nashville railroad, are among
other cases upon the list for
early argument.
