DIRECT TEST OF
MIRA ADVANCED
TO HIGH COURT
Supreme Bench Receives Its
First Point Blank
Code Issue.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 15.-The
Supreme Court received a direct test
of the validity of the MIRA and
codes under it today when the Gov
eminent filed jurisdictional state
ment in the Belcher lumber case.
The appeal is from a ruling Of
the Federal District Court of the
northern district of Alabama hold
ing the MIRA and lumber code un-
constitutional.
Submission of the Governments
brief today clears the way for the
court to act Monday. 1t is likely
to set date for argument of the
case when it assumes jurisdiction,
as it presumably will
The case was decided below on
the direct issue Of the failure of the
lumber company to observe wage
and hours provisions of the lumber
code.
Particular interest attaches to the
case at the moment because of the
courts adverse decision in the oil
cases in which it was decided that
the provision of the MIRA which
gave the President power to pro-
scribe interstate shipments of 'hot
oil' was an invalid delegation of the
legislative power by Congress.
Speculation after that ruling a
week ago centered on what the
court would do to the MIRA itself
and to the codes of fair competition
promulgated under it. A square test
of these issues was anticipated and
the Belcher case seemingly pre-
sents it.
