SHERMAN. Tex. July l9.-Federal
Judge Randolph Bryant today ruled
the Bankhead cotton control act un-
constitutional He signed an order
granting IN injunction against its
enforcement.
The injunction was granted to D. c.
Wallace, Gunter ginner. who sued on
behalf of himself and all other cot

On June rs Judge Bryant denied a
temporary restraining order on the
ground that the Government was not
disposed to prosecute the ginners at
that time for failure to comply with
the act.
Today he said, in a written opinion:
Il think that the law is clearly and
plainly unconstitutional. Owing to
the unusual and extraordinary circum-
stances present in the case, 1 think
that an injunction should issue upon
the giving OF proper security.
1T is only very thinly disguised

cotton under the pretext of the exer-

tional Government. This power, If 1t
exists at all. is not committed to the

RELIEF SW|NDLERS
FACE PROSECUTION
District Attorney Asked by
City Heads to Act
Against Ten.

District Attorney Leslie c. Garnett
was asked today by the Commissioners
to take criminal action against 10 re-
lief recipients alleged to have got on
the rolls through false pretenses.
This is the first time the District
government has turned to criminal
prosecution to put down chiseling on
the District relief rolls. 1t is climax
to a drive recently started to prevent
dissipation of relief funds to persons
not deemed worthy, or to cut down al
lowances to others found to be too
high.
District officials preferred charges
of false pretense in the 10 cases sub
mitted to the district attorney.
Fake Names Charged.
District government files in the
cases purport to show that IN some
cases relief recipients used fake names
and that in others they had private
employment which they concealed
from case relief workers. In one case,
it is charged. the relief client had a
bank account of 5000. unknown until
recently to relief officials.
Information was given the district
attorneys Office last October. and he
told District officials at the time he
saw no reason why prosecution should
not be started if satisfactory evidence
was obtainable.
Action was taken after an investi-
