 III WASHINGTON FOUR VITAL RULINGS ARE
 HANGING FIRE
Guffey Coal Act, Securities Law, Low Cost Housing; and Aid for Municipal Power Plants Head Measures Awaiting
 Decision
BY RODNEY BUTCHER Democrat Washington COrre-
 sp0ndent

WASHINGTON, Feb. 25 =
 W The New Deals legisla- tion will be before the U. s. Supreme Court for at least another year.
 The court seems certain to pass on four important meas ures before it recesses for the summer, whereas it's de- cisions as to others will go over until after the presiden- tial election.
 The 0uffey coal act, the securi- ties act of 1883, federal low cost housing activities, and PWA financ- ing of municipal power plants will come before the high tribunal with in the next two or three months.
 On their way through lower fed- eral courts, but unlikely to be ar- gued and decided here until next winter, are tests of the national labor relations act, the railroad pensions act, and the public utili- ties holding company act.
 Cases involving the social Secur- ity act, the new farm program, and the stock market act are expected to follow.
 Guffey Act Up Soon
 The Guffey coal conservation act will be argued soon. Fifty or more coal producers have sued for in- functions to prevent its enforce ment and the primary issue is va lidity of it's prohibitive tax on coal, designed to force observance of minimum price standards.
 Constltutionally, the big issue is whether Congress, under the cor11- merce clause, has the right to regu- late the coal industry.
 The case headed for the supreme court arises from the injunction suit brought by the Carter Coal Company, in which the District of Columbia court held the acts labor provisions unconstitutional, but sus- tained the tax and price provisions, to which plaintiff objected.
 Whether the federal government has the power to lend and grant money to municipalities and coun- lies for construction of public power plants is the issue in about 50 suits brought against Secretary Ickes and PWA by power com panies saying no such right exists. C0nnresg' Right InvnlvAA

A program Of from II to Is wells
in Cut Bank oil field Is scheduled
for this fall under mandate Of
superintendent c. L. Graves Of the
Blackfeet Indian reservation. issued
in a letter TO operators this week.
On August 10 Cut Bank operators
asked the tribal business council for
relief from drilling requirements,
In view Of the market situation.
They were provided with form OF
agreement which gave extension to
the time for drilling a second well
which gave doubtful relief Howev-
er, on Sept 25. the superintendent
notified operators that in view Of
market improvement 1t is deemed
not advisable or desirable to post
pone drilling and requesting them
to proceed under terms OF their
leases.
This means that operators who
had planned to suspend operations
for the winter must resume drilling
and from ~ to rs wells must be
drilled If the terms Of all outstand-

GAS SUPPLY
FOR REFINERY Y

An adequate supply OF natural gas
to justify the construction OF a
line to his new refinery site was
assured L. B. O'Neil late this week
as his Santa Rita-Shubat No. /,
c NWA 3S-34-5W, was drilling into
the Sunburst sand. It had 2,OO0.-
600 cubic feet when three feet in
the sand. 1t had it's first gas at
1850 and at last reports was drill
ling at $685. The gas will be
piped to the refinery site about
five miles west, west OF the town
Of Cut Bank.
1t is understood that Santa Rita
will drill one or two additional
wells to ensure the adequacy of
gas supply for the refinery.
A crew of around 100 men is
already employed on construction
work at the plant OF Northwest Re
filming Co., for which the Parsons
company has contract to construct
a skimming-reforming unit with
Dubbs cracking unit to be added
later. Parson-U Universal equi-flux
furnace will be installed in the re-
forming unit.

trolled by Santa Rita Oil Co. which
is financing construction OF the
