REHEAR|NG ON
FARM BILL
international News servics

AhsSkMukAOuAA NOWB BeFVlcD
Although the Supreme Court
held the Frazier-Lemke farm bank
ruptcy law unconstitutional by
unanimous decision, Representa-.
tive William Lemke (R) Of North
Dakota, co-author of the act, an.
nounced today that a petition for
fehearing will be filed.
Senator Frazier (R.) Of North
Dakota, who piloted the bill in
the Senate, said that sponsors of
this type Of legislation to aid the
farmers will try to redraft it to
conform to the high court de-
eiSion.
Congressional leaders on farm
legislation, however, saw little
chance Of revising the act to &C
complish the purposes set out by
1t, which were to scale down
IL billion dollars Of farm debts.
1,4OO Farmers Affected
The courts decision affected
only approximately 1,400 Of the
more than 100000 farmers in
the United States, according to
Department of Agriculture and
Farm Credit Administration Off
Gals.
Only about that number of
farmers had taken advantage of
the act, according to the latest
available records Of Washington
departments.
VERY few" was the report for
Baltimore. headquarters for the
Middle Atlantic States. Columbia,
s. c., headquarters for the South
eastern States, reported only rs.
Louisville, KY, headquarters for
the Middle Western States east OF
the Mississippi, reported more
than any other district, 46S,
chiefly from Northern Indiana.
Hastily Approved
The Frazier.Lemke act, one OF
the most far-reaching bankruptcy
measures ever enacted, was put
through the last Congress on the
closing night. Senator Huey Long
Cd of Louisiana claimed much
credit for the final passage.
The essentials of the Frazier
Lemke law were to permit a
farmer to enter bankruptcy, keep
the farm at a reasonable rental
fixed by Federal district courts,
enjoy a five-year moratorium on
his mortgage, and have the right
to buy the farm back at a re-
appraised price.
While it was modelled on the
Minnesota farm moratorium law
which the high court had upheld,
it went much further.

Comments of some OF Americas
leading newspapers upon the ST.
prenle Court ruling regarding the
National Industrial Recovery Act:
THE BALTIMORE SUN
Under the ruling it would ap-
pear that Congress may constitu-
tionally pass another MIRA law,
but will have to restrict it to the
purely interstate commerce in
dustries. More than that, it will
have to lay down in specific terms
its own policies and definitions
regarding "fair competition" and
not leave this to the discretion Of
the President. The court did
not pass upon the question Of
price-fixing, as that did not arise
in the Schechter case, but left the
impression that If Congress deems
price-fixing essential to the eStab-
lishment Of fair competition" it
has sufficient authority to permit
the fixing of prices under we'll
defined regulations and reStric-
tionS.
At first glance the Schechter
case decision would seem to leave
the Administrators major recov.
cry experiment without a leg to
stand on, for it is doubtful that
Congress can or will set up rules
of competition for each individual
industry, as the court indicates it
must do if the NRA is to be re-
vived at all. Further study may
reveal, however, that more than
this can be saved out of the wreck
age.
THE NEW YORK TIMES
Two incidental reasons for salts
faction with the Supreme Courts
decision in the case of the Ma
tional Recovery Act must catch
every eye. The first is that Chief
Justice Hughes spoke for a unani-
nous court. There can be no
question now of asserting that the
minority was right in a 5-to-4 de-
cision. 90.
The second cause for gratifica-
ton is that the judgment of the
court came so long after the enact
ment of the law. Had it fallen
near the time when the Nation
was enthusiastic about NRA it
would have been bad both for the
court and the country. Now it fol-
lows closely upon marked change
of public sentiment. The recovery
act has done its work, the chief
benefit of which was to stir the
people into hopeful activity. The
judges simply pronounced to be
dead a statute which the great
mass Of the people had already
decided to be dead"

has been a prevalent notion, par
ticularly in governmental quar-.
tiers, that the Constitution did
not matter much and that it
could be virtually ignored in the
framing of legislation. The SUI

that notion.

TT COSTS more than four hun

IT COSTS more than four hun
IL dred dollars a year to keep boy
in the reform school at Chehalis,
according to statement made be-
fore a local group last week. The
cost of keeping one boy from Ken
newick there for a year would pay
the entire cost of the scout move
ment in Kennewick for four years!
Scouting is for just that purpose,
too. Draw your own conclusion
from the above statement.
BY the way, have you ever heard
the scout oath? Have you heard
the oath for youth as put out by
the communists? A prominent
speaker recently told the members
of the chamber of commerce that
more than $4,000 youths in the
Northwest have sworn to overthrow
our government. Contrast this with
the Scout movement and your con-
tributions to the community chest
may be bigger and come easier.

What We Think
fBy Frank DiXon)


The trouble with the young people
today is that their parents are
afraid of them-afraid to correct
them.
I was present in a home not long
ago in which the daughter, young
girl in high school asked if she
might do something. Her mother
told her she could not do it.
I have heard a good many people
get a good going over but never
heard one get the going over that
mother got.
She was told that she was mar
row, old fashioned and behind the
times, that she should have had a
trump for a daughter instead of a
girl who was trying to make some
thing of herself and get some place.
-
I felt sorry for the mother, but I
guess some of it was her own fault
since there was a starting point to
all this. It didn't happen all at
once. 1t didn't have its beginning
the day I was there.
My guess is that that mother will
go pretty easy before she calls her
daughter down again. Daughter has
her b1uffed. She is. afraid of her
daughters ridicule. =.
From what I know this isn't an
isolated case. There are thousands
of such cases. ~ 80
I believe that the depression was
caused by economic ills and sins. I
believe the crack up of 1929 was the
inevitable result of the course this
country was persuing at that time.
I believe that we will recover from
this depression and have a period of
the best times this country has ever
seen and then if we continue with
the same faults that produced this
depression we will go into another
tail spin worse than the present one.
Like produces like was never more
true than it is in the case of those
errors and faults that produce de-
preston.
The pathetic part of it is that we
won't see it. We will be blinded by
our prosperity and lapse again into
the same faults that brought on the
present disaster.
Like the ostrich, which is said to
hide its head in the sand, at the ap-
proach of danger, we refuse to rec
ognize the signs that should be
clear as the sun to all.

A friend of mine gives as an ex-
PLANTATION Of the drouth the past
two years the fact that people have
not been doing as they should and
that the drouth has come as a pun
ishment for their sin.
80 80
I have no patience with theory.
The drouth is caused by the fact
that we have cut down our forests
and Strengthened our water courses
and have failed to conserve our
moisture. It is also a fact that
drouths travel in cycles and the
past two years we have been in that
cycle.

WE PREDICT that the sales tax
" is going to sweep the country
within the next five years. The sales
tax is a nuisance but it is the easiest
tax to collect we have. The Ameri-
can people are great spenders and
don't seem to mind having their
money taken away from them if it
is done a little at a time. The larg-
est factor in bringing about the
sales tax is the fact that property
generally is taxed all it will bear.
The property tax taxes the thrifty
man while the sales tax taxes the
spender and we need more of that
system in this country. There is no
delinquent list on sales taxes.

A FLOOD of letters has been going

A FLOOD of letters has been going
IA out of Kennewick to Regional
WPA Director Cannon and Con-
gresham Knute Hill asking for
liberalization of the rules regarding
the selection of workers for the re-
lief Jobs. As the matter now stands
only those who we're receiving relief
prior to October are eligible to get
Jobs. Many local residents, espec-
tally farmers, who have managed
so far to stay off the dole have been
compelled to ask for aid since the
untimely freeze blasted their hopes
of securing a winter stake for their
families On the late sason crops. I'm
Ger the present rules there seems to
be no way these men can secure any
of the public work except such as is
provided by the new school build
ing.
This situation is growing worse
day by day and before the winter
is over it may become acute. The
citizen who has made an honest ef-
fort to support himself and family
pay his taxes and add to the gen.
eral welfare of the community, is
entitled to first consideration when
it comes to giving out jobs, though
it is conceded that something must
be done for the destitute as well.
The latter class, however, should
not be given the only consideration
in case of this kind.
This is the angle which the let
tiers are attempting to impress up
on the powers that be. Whether or
not anything results from the num-
erous requests remains to be seen.
One local citizen, not content with
writing to the local heads, is carry
ing the matter directly to the presi-
dent himself Maybe We'll get some
action in the matter yet. mi
