Finishing Work Put On Stately
 Structure

Washington, Otv. 7.-(UP).- Scores of workers were hurrying frantcally today to put the new $1O,000,00O supreme court building in shape to receive the nine jurists when they resume deliberations Monday, Oct. 2.
 Only by working day and night will they be able to have the vast expanse of flooring carpeted, the scores of desks and tables and chairs in place and the intricate mechanical equipment ready to serve its purpose when the court crier announces that the 1885 term is opened.
 Designed by Cass Gilbert and John R. Rockart, the building is the most pretentious in the cap- ital Its creators designed it as a capstone to an illustrious career that of Cass Gilbert who designed some of the nations outstanding buildings.
 Gilbert himself gave all his en- ergy to the work, possibly feeling 1t would mark the end of his ca reer. He died while the building was nearing completion.
 Classified as Corinthian
 A sprawling citadel of gleaming white marble and bronze, the building stands across Z the broad expanse of park in front of the ancient and historic Capitol. It's design is classic and is described by the architects as modified Corinthian. It might by a Gre clan temple as it rears it's roof over a formal setting of low shrubbery.
 The approach is across a glist- ening plaza of white marble dec- orated by marble benches, bub- bling fountains a d intricately designed bronze flag pole En- trance is by long wide flight of white marble stairs which lead to towering, f1uted pillars.
 Once inside the illusion of ancient and classic grandeur van- ishes. The entrance hall leads into 8 huge ,two-storied lobby fianked on either side by rows of towering marble pillars thrown into bold relief by indirect light ing. A visitor is compelled to look forward to the broad portals leading to the courtroom itself.
 Here the room itself is not large. It will scarcely seat more than 800 persons But 1t has the feeling of being the esential part of the vast expanse of building that

Speedier Flashes
 On News Possible In New Building,

Washington (UP)-The split second action by which word of momentous Supreme Court de- cisi0ns reaches the world will be speeded still more when the court meets in it's new building.
 In the ancient Senate cham Der where the court met in the Capitol, those charged with the responsibility of sending the news wrote their messages in longhand and handed them to a Negro messenger. He in turn carried them to the entrance of the courtroom, where workers relayed them to telephones or telegraph station.
 In the new building pneu- matic tubes will be placed be- side desks of newspapermen. They will run to private tele- phone booths or to the tele- graph room in the basement.
 Flashes telling the outcome of important cases under the new arrangements will reach the larger centers in the United States in les than a minute af- ter the words have been uttered by jurists.

STATE GRADS TO
 MEET ON FRIDAY
Waterburians Prominent in Special Program at
 New Haven Club

Storrs, Oct. 7-Connecticut State College Alumni in Waterbury and vicinity will join the New Haven club to observe Greater State Night, which will be conducted on Friday evening, October Il, according to announcement by Henry w. Fiene- man, chairman of the state commit tee.
 The Waterbury Alumni will gath CT at the Dutch Treat Tea Room, 26 Church street, New Haven where they will be addressed by Professor J. A. Manter and Professor Herbert France of the State College faculty. The Waterbury-NewHaven dinner, which will be held at TOO p. rll., will be one of more than IS held as part of the statewide Connecticut State Night program.
 Connecticut State Nihgt was tl1- stituted by the Alumni Association of the collee just year ago.

 varsnua Possibilities Considered

OD0sN.@.~-~~
 A more likely development, how-
 ever, is that the court in some
 cases will gay, You cannot do this
 because the Constitution forbids it."
 It may say, 'You are invading the
 rights of the respective states to
 control the commerce within its
 borders" Or 1t may say, You are
 Infringing on the right of the indi-
 vidual and taking his property and
 liberties guaranteed by the Consti-
 tution."
 In case the court decides the
 question of validity on either of the
 latter grounds, it will be shaping the major political issues of 1936. Since the MIRA decision, the chief concern has been shown on
 constitutional questions. Lobbyists appearing before congressional committees have dealt with the
 constitutionality of the basic at- tempt to achieve reform. At the same time the political
 roetrums more and more have re-
 verberated to the cry of "Uncon- stitutional."
 Tn this way the political forces have created their general issue of 1936. One group is saying, "The New Deal cannot do these things" !" Municipal utility loans No. 385-- Kansas Utilities Company vs. The City of Burlington, Kan, ct al. The company sued to restrain the city from accepting 8 loan and grant of $l45, ,O0O from the PWA and from constructing municipal electric plant and system from the pro- ceeds. The Shawnee County, Kan, dist-ict court refused to enjoin and was upheld in It's decision by the

surrounds it. It's wall rise a sheer two stories of unusual height It is surrounded by smooth buff mar ble pillars rising to its top. They glow in subdued elegance and set of by contrast four broad mrable panels covering the upper walls.
 Allegorical Scenes Depicted
 The panels in bas relief depict various allegorical scenes. They are kept subdued by a skillful play of lights. Modern furniture in dull walnut supplies the long bench behind which the jurists sit. the desk at which lawyers plead and clerks work and the churchlike benches for visitors.
 The classical illusion is less pro- nounced in the long suites of of- ficers and chambers the miles of marble foored corridor and the workmanlike filing room where documents dating from the courts earliest days will be stored.
 Furnishing the first adequate housing the court has had in its history, the building makes lux urious provisions for their con- venience and comfort. Anyone might live in it from one year to the next without much need of going outside. By means of mod ern air conditioning, the court can have even its weather made to order
 Suites Face Marble Courts
 Each members will have 8 suite of offices looking out on one of the marble interior courts where splashing fountains reflect the white marble walls and, at night, the glow of tall bronze lamps.
 Each suite will have access to a corridor where, shielded from the public gaze, members may go back and forth to the courtroom or each others chambers. Private elevators will convey them to the library or to their own private dining room with it's electric kit- chen.
 No less elaborate than the judges own chambers are the suites for the clerk of the court, it's marshal and lawyers having cases to plead. The most elaborate of these is ct aside for the At- torney General and 4 the Solicitor General.

Campaign Issues
 At Stake In / Decisions
BY JOHN A. REICHMANN United Press Staff C0rrespOnden

United Press stan correspondent
 Washington, Oct. 7.-UP)-In an atmosphere redolent with the most modern developments of sci ence and art. the Supreme Court will meet Oct. 2 for 8 term that may shape the political isues Of 1936.
 For the first time since the Civil War, the court has become the cen- ter of the political stage in it's broader sense. The words 1t utters on New Deal legislation to. come before it may shape the exact is- sues for the presidential campaign.
 The issues will be raised for the first time when lawyers defend and attack New Deal reform and recov- cry laws. They are scheduled to in- clude the Bankhead Cotton Act, the Tennessee Valley Authority, the Housing Program, the Agriculture Adjustment Act, federal loans to finance municipal power projects. Later the Wagner labor disputes bill, gold clause repudiation in gov ernment bonds, the Guffey coal bill, the utility holding company bill, the new Frazier-Lemke act and other distinctly New Deal-measures may be included.
 Meets n New Temple
 More than 8 minor significance attaches to the fact that the court is meeting in its new $l0,0O0, 900 home, the most modern building in the capital and the most modern court building in the world.
 President Roosevelt, commenting last spring on the courts decision invalidating the National Industrial Recovery Act, called it a return to "horse and buggy days"
 The president referred to the stage of mechanical development in which the Constitution was drawn and ratified and the atmosphere in which the court met and handed down its earliest decisions.
 This contrast is emphasized Tn the coming meeting of the court. The newly created court on Feb. l, 179O, gathered in the Royal Ex- change building in downtown New York. There was no quorum the first day. The horse and buggy was too slow to get all members there on time.
 No Business at First Session
 When finally a quorum was obtained a few members of the bar was admitted to practice and the meeting ended for lack of business. Afterward the jurists met at din- ner at Fraunces Taxern. Their first official cognizance of the Constitu- ton was to drink a toast to 1t.
 When the nine justices who compose the present court go to their duties on Monday they will be on time. They will drive from their modern homes.
 Each will step from his car at the entrance to a private elevator and be whisked the few feet to his chambers.
 When at last their verdict is an- nounced on New Deal legislation, their word will be whisked to the far corners of the globe in frac- ton of minute. In 1870 1t would have taken two days to get the word from New York to Philadel- phia.
 In this contrasting atmosphere the court will be asked to decide whether the legislation passed by Congress at the request of the New Deal is valid.
 This, of course, the court may do without condemning the things attempted by the administration. It may condemn each of the laws which comes before 1t for some de- fecs in its drafting. Such q devel-
