VALIDITY OF STATE
GAS TAX QUESTIONED
Payment by Government Con.
tractor is Challenged in
Supreme Court.
BY the Associated Press.


The validity of a State tax on gaso-
line used by a Government contractor
was challenged yesterday in the Su-
preme Court.
The question was raised by the Trim
ity Farm Construction Co., Of Dallas
Tex. in opposing tax of S cents i'm
posed by Louisiana on gasoline it
brought into that State for use in car
rying out contracts for levee construc-
ton along the Mississippi River.
D. K. Woodward, jr., counsel for the
company, insisted it was acting as an
agency or instrumentality of the Fed
eral Government in carrying out the
contract. and therefore was exempt
from an excise tax on gasoline it used
IN the construction work.
He admitted the State had properly
imposed an ad valorem tax on the
property the company had in the
State.
Peyton R. Sandoz, assistant attorney
general of Louisiana. supported the de-
cislon of three-judge Federal Dis
trlct Court in sustaining the validity
of the tax.
He insisted that a contractor. en-
gagged in river Improvements, was not
an agency or instrumentality of the
Government.

USELESS HOUSES
District Will Consider Pro.
posaI of Civil Works
Authorities.

A program for demolition Of useless
buildings in blighted areas of the
National Capital, through use of civil
works employees, suggested by Federal
officials, will be considered tomorrow
at a meeting of the Planning Com
mittee of the District Civil Works
Administration.
Adoption of the program here likely
will depend upon auotments to the
District under the proposed extension
OF the civil works program, now being
considered by Congress in connection
with requested additional funds for
the c. w. A.
The suggested new work program
is associated with plans for slum
clearance in the National Capital and
data as to the location of insanitary
and dilapidated structures compiled
during the rental and housing survey,
would be available in such a pro-
gram.
Proposed Program Outlined.
The suggestion was considered at
an extended conference late yester-
day between District and Federal Of
flcials and a group Of other District
interests. The proposed program,
which is being considered in several
States, was outlined by Julius F.
Stone. jr.. director of Federal projects
for the Federal Civil Works Admin
istration. He is assisted by B. P.
Evans, an associate Of the Federal
Office.
Lieut.. Robert E. York, assistant Dis
trict Engineer Commissioner, presided
over the session, which was attended
also by John Nolen, jr., of the Park
and Planning Commission: James
Ring. rent research assistant to the
Public Utilities Commission; w. H.
Wahly, assistant corporation counsel:
William C. Cleary, secretary to the
District c. w. A Roland Brennan
chief clerk of the District Engineer
Department; Robert J. Cottrell. ex-
ecutive secretary to the Board of
Trade. and Sidney Hechinger
Objections Raised.
Objections we're voiced by Hech-
finger, who said he feared such a pro-
gram would place the government di-
rectly in competition with private in
dustry. The Federal officials said,
however, they felt this would not be
the case, since the program would be
left to the discretion of the District
c. w. A. They argued also that such
q program might serve to show the
value Of elimination o, useless old
structures.
Adoption of such plans under civil
works programs was approved by Fed
eral C. w. A. officials in communi-
cations sent recently to all Civil Works
Administrations. These instructions.
however, were "permissive" and not
mandatory on local authorities.
Scope of Work.
The program contemplates demoli-
ton of old buildings on public prop
erty; private property, where owners
agree in writing to turn over standing
buildings to Civil Works Administra-
tions; private property on which
city has a lien; property that has
been condemned as unsuitable or dam

never have bothered to inquire about
what is being done or how or exactly
why. They have taken it for granted
that their interest in such matters Is
not needed, whereas the contrary Is
true. They have forgotten their obliga-
ton to education, to its agents and to
its beneficiaries. In effect, they have
evaded their responsibility.
Certainly, there are parent-teacher
associations with long lists of members,
and civic organizations with equally
lengthy rosters, but attendance at their
meetings is only an infrequent expert
ence-the business Of such bodies all
too often is left to small group. As
direct result the schools suffer, the
teachers are handicapped and the chill
dren are neglected. But Mrs. Roosevelt,
the busiest woman in the United States,
has time and energy and. much more
helpful personal concern enough to do
her part in the creation of genuine

courtesy and graciousness she deserves
the appreciation of the city. She set

An Example for Other Parents.

Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt, First
Lady and a representative mother Of
the land, yesterday visited the schools
Of Washington, and reporters, follow
ing her from room to room, were moved
describe her pilgrimage as "sympa-
thetic"-she manifested real, an au-

whole occasion had an atmosphere OF
vitality and enthusiasm for which 1t Is
dificult to find words, but about which
there can be no suggestion of insincerity.
1t happens to be characteristic Of the
Presidents wife to be actively, deeply
and intensely concerned about human
beings, especially about children, and
she cannot conceal the fact-it domi-
mates any such scene as that of yes
terday.
But the most important significance
Of Mrs. Roosevelt's visit to the schools
was that of the example 1t set for other
parents. That aspect of the incident
should not be missed. There are flun-

A Far-Reaching Decision.

The Supreme Court of the United
States has handed down an opinion of
great significance and far-reaching
effect in the case relating to the
Minnesota law establishing mora
torium on foreclosures of mortgages.
Involved in the case, which challenged
the constitutionality of the State law
In the light of the prohibition in the
Constitution against impairment of
contracts, was the question of the pro-
lection of a basic interest Of society,
a protection made necessary by the eco
nomic situation arising in the country.
The court, in q decision handed down
by Chief Justice Charles Evans Hughes
and concurred in by four other MEM
bers Of the court, upheld the validity
of the Minnesota law.
The decision Of the court in this case,
involving a State law growing out OF
the economic emergency, may be fore
runner of others. Indeed, it has been
hailed as the first victory in the legal
battle which has been gathering over
the validity and constitutionality OF
many of the recovery acts Of the admin
istration. The Minnesota law was up
held, it Is true, by q narrow margin
The court divided five to four. It's
decision, however, is none the less bind
ing. The recovery laws passed by the
Congress at the behest of the admins
tration have been challenged in various
quarters on the ground Of unconstitution-
atty. It is quite true that the Mime
~cta law is State enactment. like the

rom the Richmond News Leader.

From the Richmond News Leader.
The President learned much between
the time he launched P. w. A. and the
time he set up c. w. A.
When he embarked on the public
works program his admonition to Mr..
Ickes was, BE careful" but when he
ordered Mr. Hopkins to inaugurate civil
works his injunction was, BE quick"
The results speak for themselves.
Mr.. Ickes, one of the ablest and most
devoted men in Washington, has been
so cautious in avoiding mistakes and
graft that his department has been at
the mercy of legalism. Mr.. Hopkins
has shown himself willing to take the
chances of some waste and some folly
in order to put men to work without
delay. He has succeeded.
Here in Virginia the speed Of @. W.
A. has been such that the State public
works engineer and advisory board
must have envied William A. Smith. the
State civil works administrator, because
he has had free hand.
