INDICTMENT UPHELD
IN GOLD BOARDING
BY FEDERAL JUDGE
Continued From First Page.)

Medalie said, namely, that the power
to order the surrender of the gold and
to make any regulations as to its pos
session Is vested in the Secretary of the
Treasury by act of Congress, and not
In the President. The decision there
fore, fully sustains the carrying out of
the Presidents policies through legis-
lation and regulation
Judge Woolsey stayed all orders in
connection with the decision for 20
days, so the status quo might not be
disturbed pending appeal.
Two Courses Left Open.
In view OF the decision, II was pointed
out at the Federal Building, the Gov
ernment has two courses open regard
ing the second count. An appeal may
be taken to the United States Supreme
Court or the technical error noted In
Judge Woolsey's decision may be COR
rected by an order of the Secretary of
the Treasury embodying the provisions
OF surrender provided In the Presidents
order of August 28
1t was considered unlikely, it was
said, that the Government would resort
to an appeal, since the Presidents pol
icy and the legislation enacted to carry
It out have been given the approval OF
the court.
Finds Power Exceeded.
Judge woolsey noted in his opinion
that the Secretary of the Treasury has
not acted yet under the powers so given
to him and which I have found to be
inherent in the currency powers of
Congress" The court stated the situa-
t1on places the gold owner In a perplex-
ing predicament, in that he faces the
loss Of his gold through inability to sue
the Government II he surrenders 1t at
the behest Of an official who was not
authorized by Congress to demand 1t.
On the other hand, the court noted the
gold owner is confronted by the posi-
bility Of imprisonment and fine If he
does not comply with the order
The court stated section of the
executive order of August % Is ''in effect
a confscatory and unconstitutional
method OF enforcing the powers of
Congress" and added:
Il hold that by section 5 of the ex-
ecutive order the President has stepped
outside the zone of the mandate given
him by Congress and into the zone of
his fellow mandatory. the Secretary of

Oitcs Eminent Domaln.
Judge Woolsey also ruled, however.
that "tf1e power of eminent domain ex-
tends to all kinds of property without
exception, whether real or personal,
tangible or intangible"
Under the Constitution" he said,
"the power of eminent domain means
the right to take property for public
use on payment, under the provisions
of the fifth amendment, of just COM
pensation for the value determined as
of the time and place of taking.
The taking Of private property for
public use need not be In pursuance of
condemnation proceeding nor need
it be preceded or even accompanied by
payment Of compensation.
Therefore the provisions of section

The British action in sending out the

At the beginning of the Civil War the bridge

More than 100 years ago it was decided to place
a bridge at this point and the piers We have
seen there today were soon thereafter erected.
The superstructure has, however, peen twice

is not and never has been, what its name
would imply-an aqueduct bridge. But 1t Is
a landmark and besides undoubtedly carries
with it fond memories of the past in the minds
of those who have crossed it nnumerable
times; who have seen it day in and day out,
and who have often stopped in their trips to

almost matchless scenery of the picturesque
Potomac, with the Three Sisters" close by

the distance.
For many years it was one of the main
attractions of the West End-a place of van

river running high or was frozen over

the early boat races on the Potomac that have
gone down into aquatic history, when it would
