NORMAL ACT is
ATTACKED in TWO
DISTRICT SUITS
ConstitutionaIity of Measure
is Questioned On Four
Main Points.

The Courier-Journal Frankfort Bu-
reau says:-Two suits by nine tax
payers to inyaIidate the act creating
the State Normal School Commission,
which selected Murray and Morehead
for the sites, were fled in the Frank
lin Circuit Court Monday.
One suit came from Western Ken
tucky and the other from Eastern
Kentucky. The State Board of Edu-
cation, the Normal School Commits.
sion and John J, Craig. State Auditor.
were made defendants,
Since the decision in the road COM
mission case it was reported that the
Normal School Commission was pre-
pairing a communication to the State
Board OF Education, receding from its
claim of right to elect the presidents
and faculties OF the normal schools,
which would end the principal conten-
ton between the commission and the.
board, Mr.. Colvin said he had hoard
this, but no communication had reach
ed him, and he was better pleased
with the suits by the taxpayers.
The second suit was filed by Robert
T. Caldwell, of Ashland. attorney,
representing Zen Williamson, mer-
chant of Ashland; Milton F. Conley,
banker and newspaper publisher of.
Louisa; ]. N. Meek, Paintsville bust
ness man; A. ]. May, Prestonsburg
business man; Joseph " ". DasT+iittis;s;s,;;ii
Prestonsburg banker; d. T. Keel,
Pikeville coal operator, and Rudolph
Rutherford. Pikeyille banker
This suit asks for an Injunction
against the Normal School Commits
sion, alleging that, the General AS
sembly could not delegate its author
ity, if it had authority to appoint such
commission, to another agency, Ike
the speaker and the Lieutenant GoY7
ern6r, without submission to eitlror
house for ratification OF the Eve ap-
pointed by the Speaker and the three
appointed by the Lieutenant GoyernorI
The gist of the allegation is that there
was double delegation OF legislative
authority.
They ask for Injunction against both
the commission and the board and
against Mr.. Craig, 1t alleges that the
act is unconstitutional on several
grounds, including defect of title,
granting special privileges, exceeding
legislative authority being special
legislation, and being void for uncer-
tainty.
1t brings UP for adjudication the
claims of authority between
the commission and the Board offEd-
ucation regarding the right to spend
the local bonus money on buildings
and organize the, school, and it asserts
that unless prevented they viii pro
ceed to commit the State to the pro
jects and draw on the Auditor for
$4,000 annually for each of the
schools.
