SUPREME COURT
 BECOMES HACKER
 OF RECOVERY ACT
Two Decisions. One on
 Milk Dispute, Definitely .J Settle That Question
BY JOHN A. REICHMANN HTnitpd Press Staff COrreSDOndcntl

United Press StaH COrrespOndent)
 Washington, March 6 - (UP) - The supreme court today was definitely aligned with the new deal and embarked on a new direction tn jurisprudence that may make its present term as historically sig nificant as were the early days of Chief Justice John Marshall. Observers almost unanimously conceded that the courts decision yesterday upholding New York states drastic milk control law and its price fixing provisions was rev.
 Generally regarded as the most conservative branch of government the court, it was felt, had passed the crossroads and was headed in the direction pointed by the liberal dean of jurists, Oliver Wendell Holmes.
 The liberal wing of the court, en- larged by the votes of Chief Justice Charles Evans Hughes and Justice Owen J. Roberts, who wrote the opinion, gained a five-to-four Vic- tory in the case.
 What the court actually did was to hold that the state could 1m- pose severe restrictions on bus mess essential to the public well fare. A theory essential to the New Deals program.
 The court went further and with the aid of vigorous dissent by the four regular conservatives, out lined position that promised great sympathy to recovery legls- iation.
 The dissenters were Justices Willis Van Devanter, James c. Me- Reynolds, George Sutherland and Pierce Butler.
 For Leo Nebbia, the Rochester N. Y, cut price grocer, convicted of giving loaf of bread with two nine-cent quarts of milk, Mickey holds said:
 "He was convicted of a crime for selling his own property-whole- some milk--at price satisfactory to himself and the customers"
 But, the majority opinion noted, "the production and distribution of milk is a paramount industry of the state, and largely affects the health and prosperity of it's people" |"
 The importance of the decision was quickly noted by Jerome Frank, general counsel for the ag- ricultural adjustment admniistra- ton which was vitally interested due to it's own milk marketing agreements.
 "As to AAA milk licenses" said Frank, "the opinion removes all doubt from the point of view of the due process clause, as to our power to fix milk prices.
 "The supreme court lays down, ! once and for all, that legislative body may, when economic condi- tions warrant it, regulate any bus- | mess and that the only test is whe- ther the public need outweighs the private interests involved in that business, provided only that the regulation be not unreasonable or l discriminatory"

INDIANS HAVE
 THEIR BUDGET

Gay Head, Mass, March G. (UP)-The Wampanoag Indians who inhabit this island town have held thei rannual meeting, electing seven officers and voting budget of $6,591.
 Town Clerk Lyman B. Madison, who presided at the meeting, rapped for order with stone. only gavel ever used in Gay Head. Most of the tribesmen wore their fisher mems clothing, but Chief Nohono, known to the whites as Harrisan L. Vanderhoop, wore a wampum headband holding the single eagle feather of the Wampanoags. In the voting every one supplied his own paper and pencil.
 James w. Cooper, 70, stalwart member of the tribe, was elected cranberry agent for the 18th con- secutive time. It is his duty to guard the natural wild cranberry bogs and set the date for the har- uaSt

Miss Helen Hart, state supervisor of relief, is located at Hartford and is to pass on the various names submitted by municipalities throughout vConnec- ticut receiving federal remunera- tion for the welfare money expend- ed.

 Personal integrity and executive ability will also be taken into con- sideration.

WOOL MARKET

Boston, March 6.-UP)-The first visible break in the price structure of the Boston wool mar ket occurred to-day when Ohio quarterblood fleeces sold at 40 cents a pound in the grease, after having been quoted at Alag for many weeks. Some houses still asked the old levels.
 The U. s. Agriculture Depart ment said: "A scattered demand is being received on Ohio and simi- lar fleeces. Fine Ohio delaine wools have been sold in small quantities at 35-36 cents, grease basis. French combing staple out of similar lines have realized 3O- 31 cents in the grease. Strictly combing ASS, sos, 1-4 blood, Ohio wool has been sold at 40 cents in the grease, compared with a sale q few weeks ago at Al cents. Some houses continued to hold firmly at 41-42 "cnts for their 1-4 blood Ohio woolss"

Damage to the surfaces of the streets of Waterbury due to the sub-zero weather of the winter period, plus the heavy snows and severe thaws will run high into the thousands. it was estimated to- day. Street Superintendent Thom.. as J. Fleming this morniag stated that as soon as u little more of the remaining snow and ice has dis. appeared from the streets he will make thorough survey so as to be ready to make repairs early in the spring. which is near at hand
 During last year the city carried on one of the most intensive oiling programs in the history of Water bury. Streets throughout the city were given coverings which under ordinary conditions would have provided them with hardened sur
 faces capable of withstanding years of travel. It was planned, this year, to add to the coverings so as to make the thickness greater.

 The quartet was indicted two weeks ago on the four counts When arrafgned in court they pleaded not guilty and chose trial by petit jury. The trials were set down for today. The men changed their pleas. however, and the sen tences were passed.
 Under the present federal rev, enue act, any violation is consider ed a felony and requires arraign- ment first before a grand jury.

Farmers To Get Ouer One Billion Dollars
$zO0, 900, 900 Already Have Been Paid-ResuIts Are / Being Shown in Business and Industry

under of 10 million acres of cotton did not deprive the consumer of any clothing. There is still an over abundance of cotton which may be had if our system permits a con- sumer to buy. The emergency pig slaughtering campaign did not de- stroy food. All the edible products were turned into relief channels. Surplus acres breed nothing but confusion. poverty and waste.
 A great deal will be accom- plished for the farmer, if our cur rent efforts establish in all minds that an agricultural surplus is that excessive quantity of a commodity which so depresses the price that it prevents the farmer from pur- chasing the things he needs.
 We have addressed ourselves thus far to the emergency.
 These patchwork adjustments have sought to bring agriculture through the crisis. We have sought as orderly retreat from the surplus acres as time would permit. Our first efforts, in some cases, un- doubtedly,. have been somewhat clumsy.
 Now we are considering more permanent plans. We hope that through the social machinery we have devised for crop control, we may be able to organize our agri- cultural plant to whatever the changing conditions require. Our immediate efforts are to adjust ag- ricultural production to the domes- tic need, plus that amount which we can export with profit.
 The first consideration for more permanent future plans is to keep this machinery elastic.
 The adjustments we are now making are, of course, purely emergency activities. It is my be- lief that the extent to which fur their adjustments in agriculture must be made and the time re- quired depends to the greatest kx- tent upon the attitude of the Am err ican people regarding the tariff It is fundamental that if we export we must import.
 I repeat what have said m many times: It is desirable that our people reconsider realistically the whole question of tariffs. I want to see the whole question examined in a new spirit. Upon it much de- pendS

New York, March 6.-CUP)- Trading in stocks to-day was the lightest since early January. Prices moved irregularly with a majority under the previous close.
 Gold and silver issues gave a bit of demonstration in late trading. Homestake Mining, which gained 20 points yesterday, declined 2 points in to-day's session before meeting support. It rallied sev- eral points and other gold shares rose with it. A swift comeback was staged by U. s. Smelling.
 A feature on the downside was the Van Sweringen group. Both stocks and bonds of these railroad companies were sharply lower fol- lowing publication of a prospectus for St Louis, Iron Mountain and Soouthern Railway company River and Gulf divisions protective com mittee. The prospectus said $40,000,000 bank loans guaranteed by the Van Sweringens were in default. Banking interests hold ing the loans stated there was no change in the status of the loan and that no action would be made to take over the pledged collateral.
 Allegheny corporation issues were weak. The common stock lost point while the preferred issues were down 2 to points. Losses in the Van Sweringen issues ranged from 1 to points with heaviest declines in the Allegheny corpora ton issues. Most of the collateral up on the defaulted loans was AL legheny corporation common and preferred stocks.
 Another weak spot was the to- bacco group where American To- bacco issues led on the downslide. Earnings of the latter amounted to $3 a share for 1883, against $S.46 a share in 1892.
 Auburn Automobile was a strong spot in a weak automobile division. It rose more than a point, while Chrysler and General Motors were down fractionally. Automobile equipments were down fractions to more than a point.
 International Nickel was bid up tc new high in the coppers and it held a gain. National Distillers firmed slightly in an otherwise easier market for wet stocks. Oils were irregular in narrow range Utilities were dull and about steady.
 Commodity markets were mixed. Rye lost more than cent bush el: oats declined 3-8 cent to 1 cent a bushel; wheat was down 3-8 to 3-4 cent; cotton was about un. changed; silver up 1 to 19 points; rubber up 12 to IT: silk un- changed to up 2 cents and hides | off few points.

 Trading was fairly active at the opening on the stock exchange but it quieted down later and con- tinued dull in the early trading. Price changes were confined tc fractions in a majority of issues.
