MEASURE VITALITY AFFH
BUSINESS AND .AGRIcQ IL 1dkE
By JOHN A. REICHMANN

United Press Staff Correspondent
WASHINGTON, Jan. 6. (UP)
The Supreme courts verdict on
the constitutionality of the Agri-
cultural Adjustment act, corner
stone of the New Deals program
of agricultural rehabilitation, was
on a par with those handed down
in the NRA and gold clause cases.
It's effects were of vital conse-
quence both to industry and agri-
culture. 1t was likely that the de-
cision would play major part in
the 1896 election campaign.
The courts decision today was
the test of the AAA brought by
receivers of the Hoosac Mills, a
New England textile firm.
In its decision in this case the
Supreme court presented it's ap-
praisal of the New Deals answer
to the American farm problem, a
thorny and perpetual issue in ma
tional politics and one which has
been a major concern of every
administration since the World
war.
Many of the general outlines Of
the AAA-the New Deals at
tempted solution of this farm d.
lemma-were proposed in con-
gress first Immediately before in
auguration of President Roose-
welt.
ORIGINATED IN HOUSE
The act originated in the house
of representatives, where it was
submitted by farm experts and
representatives of farm organiza-
tions. 1t passed the house before
President Roosevelt's Inaugural
ton but was rejected by the SEN
ate.
Under the New Deal a modifi-
cation of the original plan, plus
various forms of farm aid, includ-
ing a $2,OO0,0O0,00O farm mort
gage refinancing system, was
drawn up and passed.
The section which set up the
AAA was known as Title I, and it
alone is affected by the courts
ruling today. The refinancing
plan constitutes Title II, and a
third section known as the Thorn
as amendment, gave the president
authority to take numerous steps
in regulating the currency. Under
it gold devaluation was accom-
plished and ratified later by con-
gress. .
. This Title of the act also was
not involved today.
The plan of AAA operations
and the law which was INVOLVED
in the Hoosac Mills case operated
in this way: ~ q
When the secretary of agricul-
ture found that an emergency ex-
listed and a plan of crop produc-
ton control was desired, he pro-
mulgated a plan covering the
particular commodity involved.
BASIC COMMODITIES ADDED
These commodities, some added
to the list after first passage Of
the law, included cotton, wheat,
rice, tobacco, corn, hogs, sugar
beets and sugar cane (under a
separate plan) peanuts and rye.
Using statistics of the depart
ment of agriculture, the secretary
then decided on the amount Of
processing tax which was needed
to approximate the difference be.
tween the price farmers received
for the product and normal or
"parity" price. 49,, !
The taxes could only be impos-
ed on commodities for the produc-

Be Accomplished at Cost
Of $9,1O0,4O0
By CAPUS M. WAYNlCK
Chairman State Highway and
Public Works Commission

RALEIGH, Jan. G. (UP). -.
Plans for the calendar year of
1886 as largely formulated at the
present time call for vast improve
ment in North Cardinals road
building program.
With regular federal aid funds,
which are federal funds evenly
matched with state funds, 72S
miles of road at a cost of So
7O5, 800 will be built. The 728
miles of road will be divided
roughly into rs miles of grading;
ITO miles of topsoiling and
graveling; 40 miles of traffic
bound macadam; 1862 miles of
bituminous surface treatment; "A
miles of concrete pavement; II
miles of Identification of the
roadside; 81 miles of asphalt
pavement; rs miles of concrete
road widening, and 100000 Of
major bridges.
With the public works fund 236
miles of roadway will be built at
a cost of $3,395,100 These road
wav projects that are in prospect
include % miles of topsoiling and
crawling; 81 miles of traffic.
bound macadam; 81 miles Of
bituminous surface treatment; 25
miles of roadside Identification;
II miles of concrete widening;
and 100000 of major bridges.
With grade crossing funds from
the public works money 27 under
passes will be constructed at a
cost of S1,963,000; 35 overhead
bridges at a cost of 81, 417,00O;
1923 electric signals at railroad
crossings at a cost of $500, 900,
and four Examinations of grade
crossings by road relocations at a
cost of $4,000, making a total
expenditure of this fund of $4,-
10000.
This means that we have fairly
we'll outlined for 1886 at present
the Improvement of 964 miles of
roadway and the elimination OF
railroad hazards for a total cost
of S14,210,400.
In addition to this work for the
New Year we will continue our
cooperation on the WPA farm-to-
market projects that are now un-
der way, and we will develop for
early spring betterment pro
cram with state funds on a fairly
broad scale. =,
This betterment program will
include the grading and the sur.
facing of many short sections OF
important and much-traveled Sec
ondary roads. q. ,.,.
We will continue the physical
Improvement of Central Prison
and under the compulsion of con-
ditions in our various prison
camps we plan to build a number
of new prison camps and to make
oil others.
The state highway commission
is responsible for the maintenance
of about $4,000 miles of road.
ONLY approximately Is per cent
of this roadway has been surfac,,
ed or treated with asphalt and
tar. Nearly $1,000 miles of the
entire system have not been sur,
faced with any kind of material
whether topsoil or gravel.
