Court In Poultry Case.
By the Associated Press.
The national recovery act went
on trial today before the United
States Supreme Court, with argu-
ments slated to begin about $3.50 pm
Stanley Reed, solicitor general. and
Donald Richberg, N. r. A. chairman,
paved the way for oral defense OF the
act when they filed with the court
yesterday a 267-page brief outlining
the Governments argument in the
Schechter Poultry Co. case, on which
fate of the N. r. A. hinges.

Senator McCarran. Democrat, oi
Nevada, critic of N. r. A.. meanwhile
said the case would not be fail

hand picking" cases to bring before
the court.
Presidents Power Questioned.
In the case, the Supreme Court Is
asked to decide whether the granting
Of authority to the President to make
codes of fair competition was consti-
tutional or was an invalid delegation
of legislative authority by Congress.
Defending the act as constitutional
Government attorneys filed a briei
yesterday holding that the Seventh
Circuit Court of Appeals was wrong
in declaring the fixing of minimum
wages and maximum hours was in
valid. Attorneys for the Schechter
Corp. already have challenged in a
brief the constitutionality OF dele
eating power to the President to pro-
claim codes.
After contending that the poultry
business in the New York metropoli-
tan district is interstate commerce,
Reed and Richberg. in the brief
stressed the code wage and hour
provisions which we're oyerruled in
lower courts. They said these sec
tions were "a comprehensive effort
by Congress to remedy the breakdown
of interstate commerce"
The brief insisted the recent deci-
sion of the high court in the hot oil
cases had no bearing on the power Of
Congress to delegate the code making
authority to the President. The Gov
ernment argued instead that the Court
should not permit the doctrine of dele
CATION OF authority to be so restricted
as to interfere with the ability of Con-
gress to legislate. The brief added:
THE delegation in the act would
have been necessary in normal times
because of the need for flexible pro-
cedure which could have differentiated
between industries; it was especially
necessary in view Of the emergency
confronting Congress at that time.

Committees indictment.

tinguished service" said Bland. There
was never any question before as to
his aggressiveness and efficiency. 1t
seems so strange that these faults
could be found with him at this time"
Werner Backs Garnett.
Representative Werner, Democrat of
South Dakota, who served as a mem
ber of the Crime Committee. also is
expected to join in the Garnett de-
| fenSe movement. In statement to
the press he said he did not concur
with the conclusions in the report in
a number of instances. While refusing
to be specific, he Is known to oppose
principally the recommendation for
Garnett's removal.
Blanton likewise is expected to have
something to say on the floor of the
House about the Crime Committees
Recommendation. A few hours after
publication of the committees report
yesterday afternoon he summoned In
spector Albert J. Headley to his office
for a conference, but refused to re-
veal the purpose. At the time Of the
call Headley was on the streets di-
recting traffic and the notice that he
was wanted in Blanton's Office was
broadcast over the Police Department s
radio station.
Headley, who has long been one of
Blanton's close friends, was the only
police official singled out and censured
in the Crime Committee report. He
was to have been the beneficiary OF
an alleged "gentlemen's agreement"
between Blanton and MAJ. Brown to
promote Headley to assistant superin-
| tendent upon the retirement of Bean.
Wheatley Issues Statement.
In a statement before leaving the
city last night, Wheatley said the COM
mittee had attempted to read into his
testimony a criticism Of Garnett
which he did not intend to make.
Declaring he had no intention Of
saying indirectly what he would not
say directly, the Bar Association presi-
dent issued the following statement:
