Their sponsors say they are not af-
fected by the decision.
Q. What happens to the z,8OO
employees of MIRA here and
throughout the country?
/ A. Apparently the organisation
itself viii continue to exist until
June 16 and the employees will re-
tain their jobs until then,
@. What about the various code
authorities and their thousands Of
employees?
"A. Their legal existence as code
authorities ceased with the fall Of
the codes but In many cases they
will be continued as trade associa-
ton Organizations.
STATUS OF SET UPS,
Q. What happens to organiza-
tions set up under authority Of
MIRA?
A. The federal alcohol adminis-
tration exercised its powers over
the liquor industry through MIRA
codes and hence has lost most, il
not all, its power. The oil admins
tration set up under Secretary of
Interior Harold L. Ickes to admin
lister the petroleum code loses all
the power it exercised under the
code. But officials said regulation Of
''hot oil' would continue as this
power rests on the Connally act,
which was passed to correct de-
fects in the original "hot oir' sec
ton of the recovery act. NRA
codes which are being administered
for convenience by AAA fell with
the others. Such extraneous organ
izations as the Public Works Adj
ministration and the Export-Im-
port Banks. which were set up UNI
der authority of the Recovery Act,
are not affected by the decision but
will die unless legislation is passed
by June 16.

washington. May 20 - CU.P.)-
The ABC's of the supreme courts
decision on MIRA and what 1t
means:
Q. What did the supreme court
do 10 MIRA?
A. It decided unanimously that
the entire vast structure of S57
codes and col supplemental codes
covering some 5000 900 establish
ments and 22,000,O00 workers, is
invalid.
q. What becomes of these
codes now?
A. To all practical purposes
they are dead.
CHILD LABOR CAN RETURN
Q. Does that mean that an en-
ployer hcnceforth can disregard all
the provisions of the codes? Can a
cotton manufactures, for instance,
forthwith employ child labor,
which the code forbade?
A. So far as any action against
him by the federal government is
concerned, he is free to do so il he
desires. The administration appeals
to employers and workers to con-
tinue to live up to the spirit of the
codes voluntarily until the future
of NRA can be determined.
@. Are agreements which In
some cases have been made In con-
ncction with codes also null and
void?
A. The NRA holds that con-
tracual arrangements, to which the
government was not party, re-
main valid. An example is the con-
tract between the United Mine
Workers and bituminous coal OPP
orators, which was made part OF
the bituminous code, but which
also exists as separate contract. \
@. Are even the minimum wage
and maximum hours provisions o.
the codes invalid?
A. They are all null and void
There no longer is any federal au.
thority saying how many hours 6
man may work or how much hi
must be paid.
Q. How about famous section
IA, which guaranteed labor tn,
right to organize and bargain col
lectivcly?
A. That apparently is inopera
tive, too; at least for the time be
ling. 1t had been made effective onl,
as 1t was Incorporated in codes, ant
the codes all are dead.
@. Why did the supreme cour
hold the codes invalid?
| A. The courts broadest findins
was that congress had exceeded it,
constitutional powers when it dele
gated to President Roosevelt tn,
power to approve codes by tai
competition and give them tn,
force of law.
CONSTITUTIONALITY
@. Why was this unconstitu
tional?
A. The constitution provides
that law-making power shall b.
vested in congress. To a limited de-
gree, power can be delegated to tn,
president to carry out the wishe.
of congress. In NRA! Chief Justic,
Hughes said, congress had set W
no standards to guide the presiden
and had not defined standards Of
fair competition, but instead "tht
discretion of the president in ap.
proving or prescribing codes, ant
thus enacting laws for the govern
ment of trade and industry
throughout the country, is virtual.
ly unfetered."
@. On what other grounds die
the court act?
A. 1t dealt specifically with the
power of the federal government to
regulate hours and wages. Wages
and hours provisions had been
mandatory in every code.
Q. What did the court say
about federal power to regulate
wages of hours?

Property Owners May. Get
improvements for
Material Cost

Approval of an ERA project for
the construction of curbs, cutters
and sidewalks where needed in
Redwood Falls was received We'd
nesday by Richard Cook, county
ERA administrator.
Before the project can be put in
to operation a standard plan of
construction must be drawn up

such improvements must petition
the council, Mr.. Cook said. The
ERA will furnish the labor, while

DEALERS LIKELY
TOSPONSOR AUTO
SHOW HERE SOON
Preliminary Plans Include
Other Displays and
Entertainment

Although no arrangements have
been definitely made, it is likely
that Redwood Falls will have an
automobile show at the armory
about the middle of April.
Several dealers are interested in
the project, believing it offers
splendid opportunities as an ad-
vertising and entertainment fea-
ture, and preliminary plans are
being made.
1t is probable that an industrial
show of refrigerators and stoves
and perhaps other equipment will
be held in connection and a style
show may be given as a special
feature. Plans call for a high
class dance orchestra which would
play two afternoons and evenings.
Several dealers have considered
the project for several weeks and
others will be urged to cooperate
to get as many kinds and models
on display as possible.
More definite plans will be an
nounced as soon as completed.

LOANS FOR SEED
AVAILABLE UNDER
LEGISLATIVE ACT
County Commissioners Move
to Make Loans to Needy
Farmers Here

Preliminary plans for financing
seed loans under the terms of a
$2,OO0,00O bill passed by the leg
islature Saturday were made at
a meeting of the board of county
commissioners here Tuesday. An
other meeting will be held as soon
as application blanks to be sent
out by the state auditor arrive.
A. D. McRae of Redwood Falls
was appointed by the board as
loan administrator for the county.
Mr.. McRae will have a desk in the
county agents office and will be
assisted by the county agents
staff in getting the program un-
derway.
The act provides that the coun-
ty boards must purchase and dis
tribute the seed. They are auth
orized to issue and sell bonds or
borrow upon county warrants to
obtain funds.
Farmers who want seed must
make application to their town
boards, except in unorganized ter
ritory, where they may apply dir
ectly to the county board. If the
town board approves the applica-
tion, the county board will issue
the seed, but if the town board de-
nies the application, the farmer
may appeal to the county board,
whose decision shall be final. Not
more than $500 worth Of seed may
be issued to any farmer, and only
those who are destitute and
needy may be granted loans.
Applications must be made be-
fore May 1. The loan will be a
first lien on the crop grown from
this seed, and must be repaid be-
fore February 1, 1886. 1t may be
repaid in cash or in kind, at the
rate of a bushel and half per
bushel. 1t may also be repaid in
labor. The 100000 state seed
loan fund will be used to reimbur-
Sc the counties for any losses, and
consequently acts as security for
the bonds issued by the counties.
Seed grain as referred to in the
act includes barley, spring rye,
wheat, buckwheat, flax, corn, oats,
truck crop seeds and seed pota-
toes.

perience when he awoke in the

next to young Williamson. Awak-

Hanson noticed that the seat be-
tween him and the man was wet
When he called his companion
attention to it, the stranger re-
piled that he had spilled some
whiskey.
Williamson was aroused later
when nearing Rock Springs, wy
oming, by the weight of the man
slumping against mis- shoulder
and when the lights in the bus
were switched on when entering
the town, the youth discovered
that the passenger was unconscl-
Gus and bleeding. The stranger
had slashed both his wrists and
had let the blood drip into his hat
which he had placed on the floor OF
the machine between his feet. The
blood was running over the brlm
and trickling on the floor. The
suicide was taken off the bus and
medical aid summoned, but ne
