D. c. COURT HEARS
GUFFEY ACT HIT
Coal Company Counsel De.
nies Congress Has Wage.
Fixing Power.
BY the AsSociatei Press.

The troubled labor history Of the
soft coal industry was recited In Dis
trict Supreme Court yesterday, where
the Guffey coal act again was the
target of attorneys contesting its con-
stitutionality.
Philip Murray. international vice
president Of the United Mine Workers
OF America. told the court OF in.
stances where martial law and Fed
eral troops were used in strikes he
said resulted from failure of coal pro-
ducers to recognize the stsbilizine
influences of collective bargaining. ~
William D. Whitney, counsel for
James Walter Carter, coal company
executive, who is seeking to invali-
date the act, summarized the basis
for the suit. listing i've points on
which he said he would rest his case
Attacks Shift.
As his first trench" for the assault,
Whitney said the shifts of tonnage
from one coal-producing district to
another do not give Congress the
power to regulate the industry. The
Government has argued such shifts
of production were the primary result
of price fluctuations and that they
interrupted the flow Of commerce be-
tween the States.
II he lost on that count, Whitney
asserted he would contend Congress
lacked the power to Ak prices as q
regulatory measure.
If Congress had the power TO Ak
wages" Whitney said, "it would not
have that power without fixing q
standard and could not delegate that
power to agreements between operators
and miners to fix wages any way they
liked"
Secs Curb on Liberty.
Finally, the attorney assailed such
enforced agreements, sanctioned by
the act, on the ground they deprive
the workers of their liberty" Whitney
injected the latter complaint into the
case after Murray testified the unions
wage contracts provided penalties for
miners who strike In violation Of the
agreements
When the court recessed for the
week end, indications were the trial
would continue through next week.
Government attorneys disclosed they
planned to call five additional wit
nesses and Whitney said his rebuttai
testimony would require at least one
full day
