It was stressed that America is

LAW UNDERF|RE

Justice McReynolds led the at

ing the Frazier-Lemke mortgage
moratorium bill before the United
States Supreme Court yesterday.
McReynolds is a conservative,
but liberals on the bench joined
in the probing, which, to some
observers, seemed to indicate con-
siderable discussion among them
selves would be forthcoming be-
fore they decide on the constitu-
tionality of the law.
Justice Brandeis, who has op-
posed McReynolds on funda-
mental issues many times in the
past, said it seemed that under
the FraZier-Lemke measure both
"the property and the debt is
taken away from the creditor"
The mortgage bill, passed for

moratorium in case they can not

KING WEIGHING
PROBE Of REDS
IN SCHOOLS
By LOUIS E. WHYTE

Red activities in the public
schools of the District may be the
subject Of an investigation spon-
sored by Senator William H. King
CD, Of Utah, chairman Of the
Senate District Committee, it was
learned today.
The Senate committee chairman
revealed that representations have
been made to him from time to
time that Communist, Socialist
and Facist ideas have been spread
among school children here, al
though, he added, no definite
facts have been brought to his at
tention.
Will See School Heads
He said today that he will look
into the matter within the next
few days and confer with school
heads and others to determine
just what foundation exists for
the charges.
If there is any basis, he added,
he will either ask that some local
group investigate or that a con.
greSSional body conduct a study
to learn the extent Of such propa'
ganda and what effect it IS hav'
ing, and to recommend what steps
should be taken to curb it.
Senator King, who on several oc-
casions has denounced attempts of
undemocratic groups to spread
their doctrine in this country, de-
clared:
"SOme statements have been
made to me that these Com
muniSts, Socialists and FascistS
have talked their policies, or
otherwise tried to spread them,
among the school children here,
but such statements were not
supported with evidence. do
not know how true the state
ments may be, and therefore /
do not feel that with my pres
ent information 1 should pro-
pose that an inquiry be con-
Quoted.
PROPAGANDA CITED
However, / do know that
prOpagands of this nature has
been spread i'm some of the col
Ieges and universities through
out the country, and 1 feel that
steps should be taken to 1T
An end to it. I wouldn't want
my children going to schools
where they were taught that the
Democratic form of government
should be wiped out.
Before 1 should propose that
an inquiry be made here, 1 want
to look into the matter to see
what justification exists for it,
and in the next few days 1 will
take this question up with city
officials.
"If 1 learn that there is q
basis for q probe into the mat
ter, 1 shall certainly ask that
one be made"
