FIND NO TRACE
OF MISSING MEN
SEARCH MADE FOR MEN RE.
PORTED NARROWED ON
PORPOISE KEY

Lieutenant PARROT of the Coast
Guard air forces and crew return
ed late yesterday afternoon after
futile search for two men re-
ported ma"ooned on Porpoise Key
about 40 miles from Key West.
The story OF the marooned men
was found in a bottle which
flOated up on the beach near st.
Petersburg and was given to the
Coast Guard, it is said. with the
request they be searched for.
With the arrival Of the plane
Sunday it was decided to wait un-
til yesterday as it was too late at
the time of arrival to start the
search, which was begun early
yesterday morning.
When the plane returned, il
was said that an exhaustive search
was made OF Porpoise Key anG
other keys in that vicinity, but
not the slightest trace of the
men could be found.
1t was said that the paper
found in the bottle was not dated
so it was impossible to determine
when the message and bottle was
dropped into the water.
Nevertheless. true to the tradi
lions of the service. the group or
the plane did as always, covered
the ground on the key and the
vicinity, in thorough search
but did not find the reported
marooned men nor any trace OF
them.

ECONOMIC HIGHLIGHTS
Happenings That Affect the Dinner Pals, Dividend
Checks and Tax Bills of Every Individual; Ma
tiOnal and International Problems Insep-
arabic From Local Welfare

A little less than a year ago, a
committee Of the House of Repre-
sentatives was considering a bill
which had the strong support OF
the Administration, but which was
regarded as unconstitutional by
many congressional lawyers of
both parties. Committee members
also favored the bill-but the con-
stitutional question made them
hesitate to recommend its passage.
So President Roosevelt sent the
committee a brief note which was
to make headlines throughout the
country: CAN doubts should be re-
solved in favor Of the bill, leaving
to the courts, in an orderly
fashion. the ultimate question OF
constitutionality | hope your
committee will not permit doubt
as to constitutionality, however
reasonable, to block the suggested
Legislation"
That note stirred up one of the
lieveliest debates in the New
Deals history. Friends of the Ad-
ministration said that the Presi-
dent had shown a sensible and
logical attitude-that it was up to
the courts, not a group of con-
gressmen, to decide whether or not
law is constitutional. Opponents
said that the note made it appar-
ent that the President was seeking
to circumvent the basic law OF the
land.
The bill was the Guffey Act
designed to stabilize the long cha
otto bituminous coal industry. In
effect, it created a ''little NRA"
with sweeping powers over this in
dustry. 1t had hardly passed both
houses of congress and received the
Presidential signature before court
action was started. Slowly il
wendell its way through lower
courts, with fair success-Federal
jurists seemed to think that, after
all, it was a constitutional law
Then, a few weeks ago, the Su-
preme Court spoke the final word.
The Guffey Act was unconstitu-
tional.
However. the High Courts de-
cision did not entirely blast the
hopes o. friends OF this type of
legislation. and it did bring to the
fore some interesting possibilities.
The Act imposed a tax Of Is
per cent on all the bituminous coal
mined in the country = with the
provision that operators who COM
piled with the code defined in the
Act would get 80 per cent OF the
tax back, while those who did not
comply with the code would get
nothing back. The Supreme Court,
nothing back. The Supreme Court,
in a siX-to-three decision, read by
Justice Sutherland, held that this
was not a real tax at all but a
penalty, and was illegal.
Thus, there seems little chance
that Congress will be able to
create valid legislation to control
an industry's labor policy (unless
that industry is beyond doubt in
interstate conrmerce) or to use the

The Guffey Coal Act has again
raised discussion as to just what
President Roosevelt would like to
do to the Constitution.
AS everyone knows, the New
Deals Supreme Court batting
average has been very bad. 1t won
in the gold seize and IVA cases
it lost in all other cases of impor-
tance, including the NRA. the
AAA. and the Railway Pension
Act.
The opinion is growing in some
quarters that President Roosevelt,
if reelected, may go before the
people and ask for an amendment
to the Constitution which would
either curb the powers Of the High
Court, or expressly make legal
acts which are now illegal. 1t is
thought in other quarters. that the
President may prefer to wait until
number of Justices retire
which is forecast for next year
in the belief that he could get a
more liberal" court through his
appointive power. Little is heard
from public officials OF such posi-
hilities-they're too full Of poiiti-
cal dynamite.

power to tax to destroy elements
within an industry which refuse to
abide by Congressional structures.
However, the Act also contained
another vital provision-it allowed
National Bituminous Coal Com
mission appointed by the President
to fix minimum prices at which
coal may be sold. And on this
phase of the law, the High Court
was much less definite.
The majority decision did not
pass on the constitutionality of
rrice-fixing. 1t simply said that in
asmuch as all provisions of the Act
were, in its opinion, inseparable,
all must fall together if one were
found invalid. The minority de-
cision, read by Justice CardoZo and
approved by Justices Brandeis and
Stone, regarded price-fixing as
legal. And a third lone decision,
read by Chief Justice Hughes. dis
scented from the majority decision
with which he agreed on other
phases of the Acton the grounds
that the various parts OF the Act
were separable, and that consid-
Grafton of price-fixing was prema-
ture.
Upshot Of all this is that New
Dealers feel that Congress can
pass laws fixing prices for an in
dustry, as long as it refrains from
passing labor provisions or tax
penalty provisions. 1t is apparent
that many Administration aims
could be achieved through price
fixing alone, inasmuch as wages,
working hours and similar matters
hinge to very large extent upon
prices. Thus, those who believe in
the principles of such measures as
the NRA, are going to make their
sentiments again felt in proposed
legislation, and the potentialities
are highly interesting and impor-
tant.

Terms of Senators
and Representatives

Representatives are elected fol-
two years by the direct popular
vote in November of even years.
Each house is a new body, al
though many representatives are
reelected. Under the Goth
Amendment to the Constitution
congress meets each year, be-
ginning January 3. Thus there is
a new house in January of the
odd-numbered years.
This procedure differs from the
Senate, in which the terms are so
arranged that one-third OF the
senators are new every two
years, making it a continuous
body in that the terms are for
six years.-Washington Post.

HENRY FORD AT 73

Henry Ford reached his 73d birth
day yesterday with age apparently
sitting as lightly on his idealistic yet
intensely practical and Individuals
tic nature as the strangely mingled
struggles, achievements, disap-
pointments and enthusiasms which
have marked one of the most inter-
esting of contemporary careers.
Mr.. Ford has been many things
in his life mechanic, inventor, and
manufacturer on the practical side,
and industrial idealist, social propa-
gandist. peace advocate and senti-
mental historian in the realm of the
more intangible values. There are
amazing contradictions in his career
as well as traits which complement
each other to perfection. 1t is hard
to reconcile the apostle of mass pro-
duction technique with the visionary
spiritual adventurer who launched a
peace ship" in the incredibly naive
conviction that his action would halt
a world war; his championship of a
living wage and initiation of the
famed $5-a-day minimum scale with
the lntolerant anti-Semitism which
marked his brief activities in jour-
nalism; the ultra-modernity of his
industrial operations with the gen
tie nostalgia for the customs and
manners Of a vanished day as dem
onstrated by his part in the estab-
lishment OF historic shrines and the
revivals of old-fashioned dances and
pastimes.
Now, we'll past the Biblical span
of three-score and ten years, Mr..
Ford is demonstrating that in addi-
tion to his other accomplishments
he has the knack of growing old
gracefully. His philosophical recog-
