GUFFEY COAL ACT UPHELD AGAIN.

For tho second time the Guffey Coal Act, sometimes known as the Little NRA' of the coal industry, has been upheld by the court. This time Federal Judge ElWood Hamilton of Ken lucky has decided the act is constitutional, holding that Congress has the power to regulate wages and prices in any industry which Con- gress may conclude bears on Interstate Commerce. A short time ago a District of Columbia court, also ruled in favor of the new coal law when it refused an injunc- ton to the Carter Coal Co.,, which would have restrain ed the Government from collecting a l5 per cent tax as provided for in the act.
 In view of the clamor rais ed about the constitutional ity of the legislation of the Democratic Congess as a re suit of the adverse ruling by the Supreme Court in the case of the MIRA, the coal bill decisions are inter- esting and enlightening. They tend to show two

things. First, that the spec ial interests noise charging the present Administration with violating the Consti- tuition is simply ballyhoo and these interests are at- tempting to stand on the Constitution along with everybody else because they have nothing else to stand on. Secondly, the rulings reveal that the old NRA had its good points as some of them are now being held valid in the Cuff fey Coal Act.

FOUNTAIN SHUT.0FF
DENIED BY RUTLAND
Health Officer Says He Did Not
Ask U. S. Authorities to Close
Place to Children.

Health Officer George c. Rutland
today denied emphatically he had re-
quested Federal officials to shut off the
water in Columbus Fountain, in Union
Station Plaza on a finding that the
water was a menace to the children
splashing there.
In ordering the fountain closed yes
terday. c. Marshall Finnan. superin-
tendent of National Capital Parks, was
reported to have said the action was
requested by Health Officer Rutland.
The water in the basin is not fit for
drinking purposes. but there is no
showing it is so bad as to constitute
health mehace, DR.. Rutland told re-
porters today. He protested Supt.
Finnan should not have "pegged" his
closing order on a request by the
health Office, since no such report
was made.
Investigation showed an agent of
Finnan's Office had complained to a
Health Department inspector about
children bathing in the basin, but that
the Federal agency had not been given
an analysis of the water. DR.. Ruh-
land said this showed the water con-
tanned bacteria to an extent making it
unfit for drinking, but that since it
was not used for drinking purposes
there was no harm in its use by the
children as splashing place.

D. c. SPOKESMAN
AT CAPITOL URGED
Roberts to Draft Measure
to Give District Floor
Representation.

A measure to give the District a
spokesman in Congress on District
legislation, as a step toward ma
tional representation, will be drafted
by Peoples Counsel William A. Rob-
erts and submitted to the Commis-
Sioners.
Announcement of the plan, designed
to fill partially the needs of the Dis
trict while it awaits more complete
representation in its Legislature, was
made late yesterday in an address
over Station VOL.
Since 1884 the Commissioners of
the District are permitted access to
the floor of the United States Sen
ate," he recalled. They could. if
they pleased, under the rules of that
body. be present whenever legislation
was under discussion. However, this
would not include the right to speak
directly themselves. a right which is
accorded to Puerto Rico and the Ha-
waiian Islands, as well as to other
possessions, through their Delegates.
In the House of Representatives
no such provision is made, and
although Delegates Of the Territories
are present and. of course. have the
power to speak and Governors of
States may attend the sessions in
which they are interested and present
their views through contact with mem
bers, the District of Columbia with
100000 population is deprived of this
access.
II again repeat that it matters little
how this official is selected We should
not be compelled to wait until the
proponents of complete suffrage have
won their cause. Whether it be ap-
pointment by the President of the
United States or appointment by the
District Commissioners. the people of
the District CT Columbia should have
some one who can speak in their be-
half when legislation vital to their ex-
istence is at stake"

discrimination, Goodyear is cutting
competition in sale of tires and tubes
between other manufacturers and be-
tween Sears -Roebuck e. Co. and other
competing retail tire dealers. includ-
ing those selling Goodyear products.
The complaint against Goodyear
charges a violation of the Clayton act
by discriminating in tire prices which
it sells in interstate commerce to

either for better law enforcement or

the sense of a resolution adopted

Club.
The vote was taken on A report
submitted by John Lewis Smith. who
headed a subcommittee appointed
some time ago to study the House
hearings and report.
Commission Held Not Needed.
In the same report the subcommit-
tee said it could see no need for a
permanent crime commission for the
District. but that if the occasion
should arise when such a commission
might be useful it would support such
an organization.
The report referred to the Wash
ington Criminal Justice Commission
which is now being organized here by
William F. Seals, who served as an
investigator tor the House Investi-
eating Committee.
1t was pointed out that there is nc
legal authority for the Investigations
proposed to be made by the Crime
Commission and that until "respon-
sible public opinion should support
a commission, the trade board group
is against it.
Complaints Called Trivial.
Smiths report also frowned upor
periodic investigations of the Police
Department. made because of trivial
complaints. which serve TO undermine
morale and accomplish no permanent
benefits.

means perfect, it is the best in the
