All week long she's as busy as can be, No time for diversion, model Is she Of how 6 smart business girl fills her time Checking accounts down to the thinneSt dime. Neatly dressed in well tailored navy blue, Answers phone calls, and other business too She lunches simply at cafeteria nearby Then back to the ofnce up sixteen floors high, Taking dctaton, transcribing her notes As in and out she silently floats Each day her routine runs like clock work, No part of her job is she likely to shirk But though the same girl when Saturday comes round She's hummng tune with the typewriter sound There's geam in her eye when she starts in at eight- It's the end of the week and her Saturday night date.

Challenge From Hughes

Chief Justice Hughes, in the opinion of many lawyers of varying political belief, specifically chal- lenged the administration to make constitutional amendment Q cam paign issue when he pointed out that the people had the power to amend the Constitution If they wanted to give congress the power to regulate industries and the rela- tions of employers and employees.
 Coupled with Hughes assertion in the stockyards case that the court would stand for no congress Sional attempt to limit its appellate jurisdiction, these experts say, that observation may be taken as defiance to the New Deal to do It's worst in the political arena.

States Wishes Ignored

Leaving aside political aspects, 1t can be readily seen that the court majority has imperiled It's position by declaring industrial production to be a local matter with which the federal government cannot inter- fere, because regulation is prero- gative of the states.
 Tn the case of 0 demoralized in- dustry which the Gutfey act was expected to cure, the court oppos- cd its dictum to 30 per cent of the industry, all the miners--and infer entially the rest of organized labor, both houses of congress, the presi- dent and
 Perhaps, most significantly, the seven states which filed briefs In support of the coal Stablllxation act with tine assertion that they themselves could not deal effec- lively with the problems of the bitumln0us coal industry.
 The state were Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Pennsylvania, New Mex leo, Washington, and Kentucky.
 They denied the contention of plaintiffs that their constitutional rights would be invaded by the act and asserted that federal reg ulation was essential.
 Ties Governments Hands
 The courts decision leaves the federal government powerless to remedy a situation which the states chiefly involved have said they themselves were powerless to meet.
 Its position m the face of such numbers, which must be cOnsid- cred In view of the finish fight with the New Deal now to be an- ticipated, Is further qualified by the added opposition of the three liberal justlces--a former profess S0r of law, a defender of public causes, and a jurist, as distln- guished from six men whose backgrounds are predOminantly those of corporation lawyers.
 Previous indications have been that the people of the country were largely inclined t0 stand be- hind any majority of the court, and the Constitution as interpreted by that majority. But it is increas- ingly obvious that the opposition may be able to put up a very strong front.

Washington, May 23-The con- servative U. 6. Supreme Court majority has burned its bridges and assured Q bitter-end struggle to curb the powers which 1t has as. sumed over congressional legisla- ton.
 If Roosevelt is reelected, his bat tie with the six justices who have shown themselves grimly opposed to the New Deal is likely to be the most spectacular feature of his sec ond term.
 That, at least, is the opinion of his most influential advisers fol- lowing the decision against the Guffey coal control act, with it's obvious inference that the Wagner labor relations act is as good as dead and the social security and other legislation in grave peril.
 The New Dealers are still hope Hul that voluntary retirements or other causes will enable Roosevelt to All vacancies in Q manner which would change the courts complexion.
 That, coupled with @ fear of dragging the constitutional issue into the political campaign, is why the real battle between the New Deal and the court is likely not to come before election.
 Inside Dope
 Some of Roosevelt's friends would like him to take courageous stand and boldly attack the court during the campaign. But the in- side betting is on the probability that he will be more cautious.
 You can mark it down as strong possibility that some time within the next year there will be more than nine justices. By simple act of congress the presl- dent would be enabled to appoint three or four additional members of the court and t0 choose men who would be more likely to line up with Justices Stone, BrandeiS, and CardozO than with Hughes, Roberts, McReynOlds, Sutherland, Van Devanter, and Butler.
 Such @ move, according to strate- gists who whisper that 1t is moro than tentative proposal, would be accompanied by official assur- ance that the court would be per- mitted to revert to It's status as a nine-man body through failure to All the first few vacancies and by an administration crusade for Q constitutional amendment specific ally permitting social-economic and general welfare legislation by con- greSS.

encourage people TO recognize the
tremendous health value of milk for

THE present efforts which are

campaign to induce people to con
sumo more milk as a commendable
step in the right direction
"Safeway along with other similar
retail groups are doing a splendid

they are also helping the dairy
