Describing Chiles position at the close of 1882 the

tons Of nitrates BY 1894 this had grown 100000
tons. BY 1908 the figure had been doubled and in
1914 Il was 2750 600 tons

The first days proceedings were
field day of denunciation. That
was the true inner sentiment of
the convention.
Yet, when the money boys
packed their bags and started for
home four days later, they had
cheered Roosevelt to an echo, and
on the surface, at least, were on
terms of amity and good will.

Il artistry in maneuvering this

figures in financial ranks to bring
it about.
Among the really big shots of
the ABA there was definite oppo-
sition to open opposition to Roose-
welt. This was not because they
approve his policies, or because
they are personally fond of him.

The way things go in the lower
courts is illustrated by contrasting
the opinion of Judge Charles ].
Dawson in Kentucky, who held
that fixing of coal miners stand
ard wages at $3.50 was "unwar-
ranted invasion Of the reserved
powers of the states and the rights
of the people" with that of Ju
Albert C. Coke in southern New
York, who enjoined the Lomas
Dress Company from violating
wage and hour provisions and
caused it to post s17,500 certi-
fed check for restitution to its
workers.
TINE AAA is facing the "delega-
Il ton of power" issue in two of
its most important court fights
both of which probably will reach
the supreme court.
In a suit which would involve
repayment of about a billion dol
lars of processing taxes if the gov
eminent lost, the two receivers for
the Hoosac Mills Corporation in
Massachusetts, refuse to pay
SCI 900 in cotton processing tax.
Chief issue seems to be whether
the agricultural adjustment act
or the processing tax section of
it's invalid because it delegates
legislative powers, that is. the tax
ing power. to Secretary Wallace.
The Edgewater Dairy Company
of Chicago also claims improper
delegation" in the test case against
Wallace's revocation of milk
licenSes-involving the AAA's right
to regulate prices milk dealers
must pay farmers for milk.

DERHAPS the most important
Il things to remember about the
court tests are the focal points of
the disputes, the unfair trade
practices" collective bargaining,
and other measures under NRA
codes.
They are raised in actions OPP
posing AAA processing taxes,
milk licenses, and other proceed
ures, and in most other New Deal
cases.
The supreme court has held that
congress must not delegate leg
islative" power unless necessary to
exercise it effectively and con-
veniently.
The supreme courts most i'm
portant decision of the sort was
that congress, in giving flexible
tariff powers to the President, had
established standards sufficiently
definite.
But the most advanced decision
to date seems to be that of fifth
circuit court of appeals, which
said in upholding the government
in one of the oil production con-
troll cases:
while congress can not abdi-
cate legislative power, it may make
a large delegation of it, always re-
tanning the right of control and of
resumption"

The 1884 campaign has devel-

easier. to pass New Deal legisla-
ton this winter in spite of i'm
preSSive - but nominal - Demo-
cratic majorities.
Interpreted in terms of the 1886
election, this has a most disquiet-
ing aspect for the administration.
President Roosevelt may find him
self confronted with two new OPP
position parties. Even If only one
develops his situation will be I'M
comfortable.
The unusual support the Presi-
dent has had so far has come
from liberals of both old parties,
middle-of -roaders of both par
ties and old line Democrats held in
line only by party loyalty. A new
party either of the left or of the
right is certain to lure away a
considerable number of his allies.

The nucleus of a liberal third
party has been formed by the La

leader capitalizing this unrest
might draw hundreds of thousands
OF voters from Roosevelt ranks.
Confronted with this situation
the President must decide during
the coming year where to place

sion of congress probably will play

Judge Anderson didn't find
MIRA or anything in it unconsti-
tutional. He simply ruled that
supreme court New Deal tests
involve primarily a clash be-
tween the "sanctity" of property
and the profit system with the
right of congress to legislate in
