HOUSE LIBERALS
HIT CONSTITUTION
Revision Talk Starts on Sev-
eraI Fronts After N. R.
AS Collapse.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
House liberals yesterday opened a
campaign to revise the Constitution.
asserting they sought to have 1t meet
modern economic needs and the crisis
arising from the smashing of New
Deal legislation by the Supreme
Court.
Chairman Keller. Democrat, Of I'LL
nois, sent out a call for a non-par-
tisan liberal aSsemblage Tuesday
morning, while Representative Nav
erick. Democrat. Of Texas. broadcast
to the Nation an appeal for a con-
stitutional convention.
Two or three subcommittee prob
ably will be appointed at Tuesdays
meeting, Keller said, adding they
would recommend whether action
should follow the lines of a constitu-
tional convention, which many lib
erals have contended is essential. or
whether some other course would be
more satisfactory.
Convention Route Long.
A recommendation for a conven-
ton would be in the nature of an at
tempt to build up public sentiment,
since conventions may be called by
Congress only on application Of Leg
islatures of two-thirds of the States.
There is a way out of the crisis, -
Keller said. "There may be two or
three. The subcommittee will in
vestigate them, look up the law and
then report back"
A definite appeal for a constitu-
tional convention was sounded by
Maverick. Over a National Broad
casting Co. network he asserted a
convention should be called as
quickly as is huranly possible to
consider our unique situation of the
elected representatives of the people
being unable to pass legislation for
the betterment of the people"
Before starting TO speak he told
reporters numerous members of the
liberal bloc have the same idea.
The liberal gathering, Keller said.
is certain to discuss the possibility of
amending the Constitution by re-
versing the language of the tenth
amendment. Then the amendment
would assert that powers not dele
gated to the States nor forbidden to
them by the Constitution are reserved
expressly for the United States.

Dear Mr.. President:

Dear Mr.. President:
There are pending In the Federal
Courts, including the Federal District
Courts and the Circuit Courts Of Ap-
peals, All cases to which the Govern
ment or its officers are parties, arising
under the national industrial recovery
act or Public Resolution No. A, which
is related thereto. These cases involve
the National Industrial Recovery
Board, the Petroleum Administrative
Board. the Federal Alcohol Control
Administration. the National Labor
Relations Board, the National Steel
Labor Relations Board. the Textile
Labor Relations Board and the Secre-
tary Of Agriculture acting as admins
traitor under the national industrial
recovery act with respect to certain
codes. A list of such cases and the
courts in which they are pending Is,
for your information. attached hereto
In view OF the recent decision of
the Supreme Court In A. L. A. Schech-
ter Poultry Corp. ct al. VS.. United
States Of America, it seems futile fur
ther to proceed with such actions.
Therefore, unless you direct to the
contrary. shall issue appropriate in
structions to the proper officers to ter
inmate them.
Respectfully yours.

tions in Approving Dismissal of
All Suits.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
The White House statement an
nouncing President Roosevelt's ap-
proval of the dismissal Of All N. r. A.
court cases follows:
The Attorney General has recon-
mended and the President has ap-
proved the dismissal of All cases as
result Of the Supreme Courts decision
in the Schechter case. All of these
cases related to the enforcement Of
code or similar requirements relating
to violations of fair trade practices on
the part OF individual businesses or to
failure to live up to minimum wage or
hour standards.
Had IL not been for the grounds
stated by the Supreme Court in the
Schechter case findings. these cases
would have been pressed by the Gov
ernment In order to obtain effective
enforcement of the wage standards
and fair trade practices set up as the
intention OF the national recovery act.
There are. of course, a large num-
ber Of additional cases in every State
in which actual court action has not
yet been initiated. These also. be-
cause of the Schechter case decision,
must necessarily be dropped.
The Attorney General. under date
of May 80, 1885, wrote the President
as follows:

Labor Relations Board sought to
establish the principle Of ma ajority
rule.'-that the labor organization
chosen by majority of the employees
in plant should speak for all the en-
ployes. The United Automobile Work
ers won an election at the Houde COM
pany's auto parts plant. but the COM
pany insisted that 1t could recognize
the losing company union as well as
the winning American Federation of
Labor affiliate.
The board decided that the company
would violate the spirit and intent of
the recovery acts collective bargain
Ing guarantee If two unions were rec
ognized. When the company refused
to comply with the boards decision.
the Justice Department asked the
District Court Of Buffalo to enjoin the
company from violating the decision.
U. s. Lost Weirton Case.
The Government lost the Weirton
Steel case in much-heralded decision
by the Federal District Court at Will
mington that the Weirton companys
employe representation plan fulfilled
the purposes Of the recovery act.
The complaint against the Weirton
Co. was filed by the Amalga-
mated Association of Iron. Steel and
Tin Workers of North America in
the Autumn OF 1893. The union
charged the company with setting up
a company Union, coercing its en-
ployes into joining the company
union. and irtimidating them from
joining the A. F. of L. unit.
The case was heard first by the old
National Labor Board, headed by SEN
ator Wagner, Democrat, of New York.
That board decided in favor of the
union. It ordered an election at the
Weirton cornpanys plants, but the
company refused to permit it. The
Government then sought a compli-
ance injunction in the Delaware court,
but the petition was dismissed.
Election Right Challenged.
The Labor Relations Boards right
to order employe elections was chal-
lenged by the Goodrich and Firestone
companies in the Circuit Court of
Appeals in Cincinnati. The compa-
nies maintained that their employe
representation plans were satisfactory
to majority of their employees, and
that elections would upset peaceful
relations.

While the Federal Government Is

The National Capital Parks and
Planning Commission is represented as
being opposed to the Rural Resettle-
ment Administration constructing a
new building Of its own on the Agri.
culture Department experimental farm
at Arlington, Va, near Arlington Ma
tional Cemetery. The Fine Arts Com
mission proposes that this land shall
be utilized for the future expansion
Of the cemetery.
Realizing that under the guise Of
temporary buildings a condition may
arise under which they will In fact
become permanent, the planners are
said to oppose placing any building

the Navy and Munitions Buildings
were put up as temporary structures
during the World War, but, nearly 20
years later, they still occupy part Of

required, depending upon the action
of Congress in creating new groups

Two Ways Of Amendment.
If the Constitution is to be amended,
it may be attempted either through
a resolution adopted by two-thirds Of
each house Of Congress and submit
ting it to the States for ratification,
or through . constitutional conven-
ton, called by Congress on application
Of two-thirds Of the Legislatures Of
the States. In either case, the pro-
posed amendments must be ratified by
the Legislatures Of three-fourths Of
the States or ratified by conventions in
three -fourths Of the States called for
that purpose.
1t is clear that . proposal to amend
the Constitution in accordance with
the views Of the President would lead
to q hard fight. Those Democrats
who hold fast to the old States rights
doctrines. particularly in the South.
would have to be considered. There
are States in ether parts Of the coun-
try which might not consent to such
amendment,
