Kentucky Mine Operators Held
I'm Intrastate Trade,
y Free of Recovery Act

LOUISVILLE, KY, May 2
UN.SD. D.-Ruling that mining is
intrastate business and is with
out the Jurisdiction of Congress
to regulate, United States Dis
trict Judge Charles I. Dawson
today granted a temporary in
junction restraining enforcement
of the NRA bituminouS coal code
in Western Kentucky.
The court vigorously assaileo
attempts of the Federal Govern
ment to regulate intrastate bus
iness and said of the National
Industrial Recovery Act:
II don't have the slightest
doubt about the uncOnstitutiOn-
atty of this act as it affects
local business"
The mine operators had asked
relief from the $3.50 daily basic
wage scale, which the new code
provides with a Seven-hour day
They claimed any wage over 81
day would put them out Of
business and the code thus was
confiscatory.
All mines in the field, employ
ing about 10000 men, have been
idle since the code went intc
effect.
Decisions Cited
Coal mining is strictly intra-
state business, asserted Judge
Dawson. He cited repeated de.
cisions of the United States Su-
preme Court in which it was
held that interstate commerce
does not start where manufacture
and production end and that it
does not begin until the product
is delivered into the hands OF
the instrumentality or agency
that is to put it into commerce.
He said:
"The process of digging the
coal, bringing it from the
mines into the daylight, has
of itself no more relation to
interstate commerce than has
growing a bushel of wheat on
. farm"
| Sees Act Distorted"
The MIRA was drafted either
Gin good faith and intended to
go no further than the well-set
tied limits that the bar and
bench has ascribed to this regu
lation by Congress, or it was Sc
adroitly drawn as to conceal the
real purpose and intended event
TALLY to apply to every conceivable
activity" said the court. The
judge added:
81 don't believe that Congress
dreamed that this act would be
miSread and distorted to mean
that Congress had the power to
control all activities"

Says:

SAN FRANCISCO, CAL, May
al see by the papers that
there is some talk of RuSsia'S
paying. And that's on a debt
this Russian government didn't
contract. Russia owes 700 mil
lions and we may get 200 mil.
lions. 1t would be a good joke
on everybody if the Communists
turned out to be the only ones
you could trust.
The Philippines voted on
whether they wanted freedom
or not. They were in favor Of it
until they sent a commission
over here and saw what 1t was.
Then they were in doubt.

without a record vote, incorpo-
rated an amendment allowing
