CENATOR JOSEPH t. ROBINSON,
~ majority leader OF the senate, be-
ing Informed that the foreign rela-
tons committee had voted IA to 7 in
favor of the project for American adj
herence to the World court, said he
would bring the resolution up on the
floor of the senate as soon as pos
sible. However he recognized the
sentiment against it was strong and
would not predict the outcome of the
fight.
The new resolution as approved by
the committee Is slightly altered to
meet the objections OF other nations to
what is known as reservation five. Mr.
Robinson said:
"The legal import and effect Of res
ervation five has been preserved In
full. It is provided that discussions
may take place under the Root pro-
tOcol, but In the end the court may not
entertain over the objection of the
United States any request for an
advisory opinion OF any dispute or
question in which the United States
has or claims an interest"
or the Democrats on the committee
Senators Lewis and Murray voted
against the resolution; Republicans
who favored 1t were Vandenberg and
Capper.

PETROLEUM control provisions OF
! the National Industrial Recovery
act, specifically section 8 (c). are held
by the Supreme Court of the United
States to be invalid as unconstitu-
tional abdicatIon Of legislative power
to the President. Eight OF the justices
united in rendering this decision, JUS
tice Cardozo alone dissenting. and the
opinion was read by Chief Justice
Hughes.
The section declared void authorized
the President TO ban interstate ship
ment of "hot" oil-that is. oil pro-
duced In excess Of state quotas.
While the opinion did no deal with
other phases Of the recovery act, 1t
aroused widespread speculation as to
disposition Of other cases. This was
the first major New Deal' East to
come before the court.
Emergency legislation by congress
to remedy the situation and to meet
the objection Of the court was re-
ported to be an immediate likelihood.

the case for the government. Mr..
Cummings is an excellent lawyer, but
not much can be said In praise of the
legal abilities of most Of the men whom
the exigencies Of politics have showed
into his office in Washington. So prob
ably he was wise to handle this matter
himself.
Cummings defended the constitu-
tional authority of the President and
congress to adopt the present none
tary policy as Inherently the right of
the government to preserve itself.
In an argument distinguished for
oratorical display as well as for Its
legal aspects, Cummings said an adj
verse decision by the court would:
l.. Increase the public and private
debt OF the nation by 500, 900 900. 900.
2. Create a special class that would
be beyond the pale of the general
financial structure. a class composed
OF those holding bonds demanding pay
ment in gold.
3. Reduce the balance In the United
States treasury $500. zoo. 900.
4. Add s17,00O,OO 900 to the pub
lie debt and increase the interest
charge on this debt alone by $780,
100000 a year.
The latter sun alone, Cummings
said, is equal to twice the value Of the
1884 wheat and cotton crop.
The attorney general referred to the
troubled state of the country In the
spring of 1888 and added, IL contend
and shah show that the congress and
the President of the United States act
ed reasonably in a period of very great
difficulties and that their acts were not
the product of caprice"
From the questions asked by the
Justices, observers gained the impress
sion that there was a sharp division
of opinion among them.

THREE DISEASES
RESPONSIBLE FOR
MANY AILMENTS

Three diseases-inf tubercu-
losis and the pneumonias-were re-
sponsible for one fourth of the total
sickness from the Catching" diseases
reported to the State Department of
Health during the first six months of
the current year. The remaining
three fourths were scattered among
the fifty, or more, other diseases on
the reportable list. The report as
summarized by DR.. r. H. Riley, Direc-
tor of the State Department of Health
follows: From January 1 to June 80,
inclusive rs, 1923 cases of communicable
diseases were reported to the Depart
ment, 1924 from Baltimore City and
1889 in the counties, in comparison
with 46, 437 during the corresponding
period of 1884, 30,176 of which occur
red in Baltimore City and 1921 in
the counties. The measles epidemic
of last year was responsible for last
years high total.
"Of the three diseases mentioned
above, influenza was charged with
2,665 cases, in comparison with 484
during the first six months of 1884;
the pneumonias with 2,276 cases as
compared to 2,227 in 1884 and tuber-
culosis with 1892 cases in comparison
with 1928 cases of that disease dur
ing the first six months of last year.
More complete reporting of existing
cases is felt to be responsible for the
increase in the tuberculosis total rath-
er than an actual increase in the di-
sease.
among the so-called children's di-
seases scarlet fever and German meas
les showed marked increases; and
measles, whooping cough and diph-
liberia showed substantial decreases.
Scarlet fever was charged with 2,149
cases in the State during the current
year, in comparison with 1,749 cases
last year; German measles with 1886
cases this year in comparison with
TAO last year. Measles was respon-
sible for 1850 cases in comparison
with 25, $50 last year; whooping cough
for 91S cases as compared to 1916
last year; and dphtheria for 100 cases
in comparison with 2O4 last year.
Give cases Of poliomyelitis- infan-
tile paralysis-were reported from the
first Of January to the end of June,
an increase of one case over the num-
Der reported during the same period
last year. There were Al cases Of
dysentery reported in comparison with

WILL Vote ON
CHURCH UNION
SCHEME TODAY
If M. E. Proposal Adopted
1t Will Go to Three
General Conferences
BY PHIL NEWSoM
United Press Staff Correspondent

EVANSTON, ILL.,, Aug. To-
(UP)-Sectional feeling which
for nearly a century forced an
overwhelming gap between the
Northern and Southern Methodist
Episcopal churches appeared at
an end last night as leaders met
in an attempt at reconciliation.
The negro question, source of
failure and despair in previous re-
Cancellation attempts, was pushed
summarily to the background as
both factions forgot the War of
Secession and turned to a techni-
cal discussion of administration.
While outsiders were barred
from the discussion, it was learn
ed that most of the time was CIV
en- over to reports from the COM
mittee which Tuesday completed
the first rough outline of a re-
union plan. .. -,
A vote on whether it will be
presented to the conferal confer
ence will be taken today, the
churchmen said. ..
If approved here, it will be ia
ken to the Northern and Protest
ant conferences in 1886 and to
the Southern conference in 1888.
Comparatively little time has
been required in considering the
Methodist Protestant faction,
leaders said, as this group, con-
tanning about 100000 of the ":
100000 Methodists in the United
States, has indicated that most of
their "liberal" objections have al
ready been removed and that a
reconciliation is agreeable.
Meanwhile, the vast interests
controlled by the divided factions,
have come to the front as the
outstanding question which the
conference must settle.
The Methodist Episcopal church
of the North has property valued
at $731, 100000. The Southern
branch has property worth in ex-
cess of S3O0,O00,00O.
Methodist Protestant churches
number about 1000, mostly IN
the east. The total number OF
churches brought into the union
would exceed $4,000, and neces-
state an estimated operating bud
get of $1O0,0O0,000 annually.

ANGRY CROWDS

RELIEF OFFICE
Missing Government Check
Cause of Demonstration
in Los Angeles
10000 FAMILIES DUE
TO GET MONEY TODAY
By THEON WRIGHT
United Press Staff Correspondent

LOS ANGELES, Aug. Is. (UP)
While crowds of angry citizens
milled around relief pay stations
last night, state and federal agen-
cies strove to unsnarn the great
est clerical boner in the history of
national rleief."
They sought to untangle from
mass of governmental red tape a
check for 100000 for relief
clients in this area, missing
since last Thursday.
The check supposedly was dis
patched from Washington, d. c.,
on that day. Yesterday it had
failed to show up, and relief agen-
cies were confronted with a pros
pect of 100000 persons on relief
rolls in this area being without
food by the end of the week.
The check supposedly had been
dropped in the mails, and-with
100000 families without money
apparently was due to remain
locked up in a mail pouch in San
Francisco until yesterday.
But when the mail bags were
opened, the check wasn't there. 1t
still was in the treasury depaEt-.
ment in Washington, "awaiting
the signature of Gov. Merriam Of
California, in California"
The check was telegraphed has
tily to San Francisco, and routed
to Sacramento, where Merriam
supposedly was waiting for it at
the state building.
The check arrived, but Merriam
didn't He was in Long Beach. So
the check was put aboard an air
plane and waited 500 miles south
ward to the governor, who was
scheduled to be at the state build
ing in Los Angeles at 2 p. m. and
