ond, not having that power it can
not buy" the power by giving
money to a group of farmers on
condition that the farmers will sub
NIT to It's regulation. This the
Agricultural Adjustment Act did by
Offering TO pay subsidies to farmers
who would submit to conditions
laid down by Congress and the Sec
rotary of Agriculture.
n n
THIRD, the processing tax levied
l. on professors of farm products
is an integral part of this scheme
and, while Congress may tax proc
essors to raise funds for "the gen.
eral welfare" it can not do so to
make effective its regulations over
a subject which belongs exclu-
sively to the states.
This briefly is where we stand
on the law. Where does that leave
farm relief? For the time being
1T is completely wiped out. But
can Congress now enact any new
measures of farm relief? Has not
the court held Congress can not
regulate agriculture?
Would the equalization fee stand?
Hardly, since that would be open
to the same objections. Would the
domestic allotment Ian DE legal?
Certainly not, since t. could not
be carried out by the government
without Federal grants.
NIOULD the export bounty be
w legal? Perhaps. For Con-
gress does have jurisdiction over
export trade. What else has been
proposed? Literally nothing. The
farm problem is now more insolu-
BILE than ever.
What of the money problems in
Volved? The government has COL
lected from professors $1,064, $685.
400 up to Dec. 81. Will the manu-
LECTURERS who paid the tax, now
held illegal, be able to get it back?
They can not sue the government
without its consent. Will a de-
mand for government consent be
made? Will it be granted?
The government still owes much
money to the farmers under the
act. The AAA induced many farm
ers to curtail their production on
the promise of payments. About
$263 100000 IS still due farmers un-
der such government promises.
Should the government pay this
money? Where will it come from?
THE next great point .is-where
Il do we go from here? Farm
ers, labor, coal miners, many
groups believe the government
should have the right to deal with
these problems. The states are
powerless.
What can single state do to
protect its economy from the wild.
destructive forces which beat on it
from the whole world? The states
can do little. The central gov
eminent is powerless under the
Constitution. The result is the
American people are the only peo-
pie in the world who can not deal
with their economic problems.
Beyond doubt this decision
makes it inevitable that we face a
great struggle to amend the Con-
Stitution to give the central gov
eminent that power. 1t is signif1-
cant that Justice Stone in dissent
ing uttered solemn warning that
such decisions may result in de-
stroying the rights of the states in
the end.

THREE BEGIN
'SHAKED0WN'
DEFENSE

NEW YORK, Aug. IL U.N.S0.
Using unpleasant innuendoeS and
alleged revelations Of a scandaloUS
nature as their weapons, the three
men accused of extorting $4,000
from Harry Bannister, exhus-
band Of Ann Harding, the film
star, open their defense today.
The nature Of the defense was
indicated by defense counsel in
cross-examination Of witnesses and
in the opening address to the blue
ribbon jury.
OF the three defendants, Harry
Hechheimer, disbarred lawyer;
Jerome Jacobs, lawyer, and Ray
Derringer, movie photographer,
only Jacobs was expected to test
ify. George Wolf, his counsel,
said Jacobs would explain that he
just happened" to be in a taxi
cab with his fellow defendants
the day Bannister allegedly met
them and paid them hush
money"
Paid During Suit
The payment allegedly occurred
during the BanniSter'Harding
child custody fight. Bannister
said the accused extortioners de.
manded $4,000 for affidavits OF
"vile and vicious" nature which
they said had been made against
him. After paying off, BannlSter
said he found the aftidavltS were
frauds.
It was not the first time Ban
mister had been the victim OF ex'
tortioners, according to surprise
testimony by Humbert Fugazy,
sports promoter. Fugazy said
Bannister once paid 81 600 TO q
gangster identified only as Ben
to save himself from death at
the hands of two hireling gun
men Of Broadway.
Finn on Stand
The last witness for the State
was Lieut.. James j. Finn, the
little detective who gained world
wide fame two years ago by snap
ping handouts on Bruno Rich
ard Hauptmarm in the Bronx.
Finn testified that Hechheimer,
after his arrest, admitted that the
scheme by which the $4,000 was
taken from Bannister was
Shakedown.
Defense lawyers subjected Ban
mister to a mercilesS examination
on his private life. Once Ban
mister turned to Judge Koenig
and protested, but he was ordered
to answer.

DC. Paid First Visit

Kin Of Cormorants

For the first time in the rec.

lumbia.
A specimen of the bird, said to
be hitherto unknown in this
section, was reported to be max
ing itself at home in Reaches
Run, on the Mt. Vernon Boule-
ward, by the National Capital
Parks office.
A water turkey" is not a tur-
key, ornithologists explained, but
rather a diving bird allied to the
cormorantS. Its scientific name
is anhinga anhinga, and its
northernmost range is usually
North Carolina.

Experience Shows How Not
To Organize

Birth in industrial unity and death through
craft divisions that is the history of many
promising attempts to organize the inorganic
ed mass-production industries.
1t held true even before the recent wave of
organization activity, according to a former or
ganizer of the United Mine Workers, who re-
lates the following experience as one instance
in many:
"In Renton, Wash" he says, "the Pacific Car
& Foundry Co. makes equipment for the rail
road and logging industry, employing over a
thousand men. l organized them into a federal
labor union with a charter from the American
Federation of Labor and we demanded a blanket
agreement covering all the crafts"
"The company got busy, sent for the business
agents and organizers of the skilled crafts, and
was willing to recognize them but not the fed
eral labor union"
TN the mass meeting ! told the organizers Of
the different crafts that it was untimely for
them to come and separate our forces after we
had organized them into one group. The plant
had been working for years and no attempt was
ever made by the craft unions to organize the
men in it. But now they were willing to pull
the chestnuts out of the fire for the employers"
$50 they left, and the federal labor union after
an eight days strike forced the blanket agree
ment covering all the crafts and unskilled men"
Several months after, the different crafts in
sisted on separating the skilled men into their
own organizations; and a year afterwards, there
was neither federal union nor craft organiza-
tions at the plant"
Many instances of this kind Of division
where newly organized workers need unity
above all else explain the almost unanimous
opinion among those concerned with organizing
the mass production industries, that their or
ganization to be successful must be along in
dustrial lines.
Montana labor news., 1936-04-23

court held they were free to accept or not accept.
This fiction enunciated by the Supreme Court
was accepted without question by the four judges
Of the New York Appeals Court who invalidated
the Minimum Wage Act. But the minority of
three judges, in the dissenting opinion written
by Judge Lehman, took a different view of lib
erty of contract and defended the action of the
Legislature in authorizing minimum wages for
women in the laundry industry as a modification
of that liberty throughly justified by the abuses
which the Act sought to remedy.
"The restriction upon liberty Of contract" Jud-
ge Lehman said, is directed against a harmful
and perhaps unfair use Of that liberty. The con
stitutional limitations upon legislative power
must be enforced by the court, but they may not
be extended beyond their fair meaning"
Liberty Of contract, like other forms of lib
erty, must be zealously guarded against invasion
by the State, but fear that in the future the State
may encroach by unreasonable legislation upon
the liberties Of the Individual cannot justify a
present limitation upon the powers Of the State
not expressed or clearly implicit in the Consti-
tuition"
Liberty may be reasonably restrained upon
grounds of general welfare. Courts must de-
eide each case upon the facts there presented;
upon the facts presented in this case we do not
find any ground for saying that the Legislature
has acted arbitrarily or Transcribed the limita-
tions upon its powers"
This opinion by Justice Lehman is in accord
ance with the view expressed by William How
ard Taft, Chief Justice of the United States Sup
RENE Court, in a dissenting opinion on the Dis
trict of Columbia Minimum Wage case. He pro-
tested that there was not and never had been
such a thing as absolute liberty Of contract, and
that he did not think minimum wages any more
unreasonable a limitation on liberty of contract
than maximum-hour laws which the court had
already held were constitutional
It is clear that the decision of the United Stat
es Supreme Court in the District of Columbia
case holding the Minimum Wage Law for Wo-
men unconstitutional is a continuing barrier to
the enactment Of this type of protective legisla-
ton for women workers in all States. Perhaps
if the New York decision is appealed to the Sup
RENE Court it will reverse itself on the matter of
minimum wages for women as it reversed it.
