STATE PENSION
ACT HELD lille
GAL BY COURT

Harrisburg, Pa, Aug. 16.-Attor-
ney General Woodruff announces thai
he will appeal to the state supreme
court from Judge Hargest's decision,
that the Pennsylvania old age pension
law of 1923 is unconstitutional.
Judge largest ruled that the law
violates this section of the constltu-
ton:
mo appropriations, except for pen
sions or gratuities for military serV-
ives, shall be made for charitable,
educational or benevolent purposes 10
any person or community nor to any
denominational or sectarian instltu-
ton, corporation or association
The pension law created com
mission of three persons for the pay
ing of 81 a day TO those who do not
have an estate of $4,000 or more and
who are 70 years of age or over.
In setting the law aside, Judge
largest said:
Whether or not this legislation Is
beneficial or whether it is paternalism
and a vicious usurpation by the gov
eminent of quasi-fatherly relation
TO the citizen and his family can not
concern us. Our single inquiry must
be whether it is prohibited by the
constitution itself.
IF we are right in our conclusion
that the prohibition for beneyolence
to any perosn is as broad as the
language plainly indicates, then we
say there is not syllable in the
constitution which authorizes sys-
tenn of benevolence through a state
department or agency for the care
and maintenance of aged INDECENT
residents of the state.
IF appropriations can be made to
commission the purpose of which is
to distribute benevolence to aged in
digent persons, it is accomplishing
exactly what the constitution says
can not be done, namely, making an
appropriation for benevolent purposes
to certain persons.
Nor can this act be sustained as a
poor law. Fundamentally, state
should take care of its paupers. A
pauper is one so poor as to be un-
able to provide for him or herself and
having no one of sufficient pecuniary
ability to care for them This act of
assembly is not based entirely upon
pauperism or lack of earning power
and has other qualifications which t
is not necessary to consider but which
are not consistent with pauperism.'

When Coal Is Gone.

Toronto, Ontario, Aug. 16.-When
coal and oil are exhausted, new forms
of fuel will be obtained from COM
mon salt and water. according to Pro-
fessor F. G. Donnan of London at n
meeting of the British association for

Donnan said.

Can't Sue Unions.

st. Louis, Mo, Aug. 16.-If the
higher courts sustain Circuit Judge
Killoren' sruling in a damage suit
against the United Garment Workers
it will be impossible to secure injunc-
tions against unions in this state, ac-
cording to John p. Leahy, attorney
for the union.
A woman sued the garment workers
for damages, alleging that she was
wrongfully expelled. Judge killoren
dismissed the suit on the ground that
the act under which it was filed is UNI
constitutional.
This act, Attorney Leahy declares
wa put through the Legislature at the
intance of the Manufacturers asso-
citation, principally to permit the filing
of injunction suits against officials OF
unions involved in suit.

THE COMMITTEE.

London, June 18th -The.Prime Minister.
in a statement today in the House of
Commons on the Irish negotiations, said
the Government had secured a chair
man for the boundary committee and
declared that his name would be Gnnoun-
ced tomorrow. The Government had de-
cided, he said, to set up a judicial com
mittee to solve the constitutional legal
issues of such a boundary dispute. The
committee would include Chief Justice
Sir Adrian Knox of Australia and would
sit during July. Meantime the Govern
ment has not abandoned the hope that
the two Irish Governments may reach
a settlement before the committee is con
stituted. Such hope has been ehcour-
aged by conciliatory u|tterances by Sir
James Craig, Premier Of Ulster and Pres
ident Cosgrave, President of the Irish
Free Stat. 1t is reported in the lobby
OF the House OF Commons this afternoon
that the chairman Of the IIish Boundary
Committee would be Sir James Rose In

Answer to States Suit Claims Unjust
Discrimination in Favor of
Foreign Companies

Discrimination in favor of foreign
refining companies distributing their
products in Montana and against the
Sunburst Refining company Of Great
Falls is set up by the Sunburst COM
pany in its answer, filed July .. in the
district court to all causes of action
contained in complaint of the state OF
Montana, in which the state seeks 10
collect a license tax Of 2 cents a gal
Ion on gasoline produced by the de-
PENDANT company for the period end
ing September 80, 1923 and for the
period ending December 81, 1928. Dis
missal of the states action is therefore
asked.
The Sunburst company represents
that the Continetal. Mutual, Texas,
Pure OIL, Midwest Refining, Producers
and Refiners, Utah Refining and other
companies manufacturing distillate In
other states and distributing their
products in Montana are not required
to pay the cent license tax. AS
result of this discrimination, the de-
PENDANT company declares it is subject
to unfair competition in Montana,
which has resulted in its loss of con-
siderable business in carload lots.
