THE GUFFEY LAW AND ALASKA
 MINING

The written opinions of the Supreme Court Jus tices in the recent decisions declaring the Guffey Coal Law unconstitutional of particular interest to Alaska because of the members interpretation of the relation between interstate commerce and the mining industry,
 The majority opinions contended that Federal regulatory power ceases when interstate commercial intercourse ends; Git was on this ground that the court struck down the MIRA in the earlier Schechter case) and correlativey, the power does not attach until interstate commercial intercourse begins"
 Associate Justice George Sutherland in stating the majority conclusions contended ito consent to the implication in this Act that Congress may take for objects however worthy the powers reserved to the States is to reduce them to little than geographical subdivisions of the National domain. There are many previous rulings what constitutes interstate commerce the province of Congress Min ing has never, and cannot, come in u. This attempt is like the stopped unanimously by the Court in the Schechter (NRA Case), except that then the flow of interstate commerce had ceased here it had not begun . The relation of the employer and the employee is local relation" In this last state ment many lawyers according to national observers, see the doom of the Wagner Labor Relations act which will be before the court.
 The two major points in the legality of the Gufey Coal Law if Congress had the power to attempt the control of wages and hours, and interstate price fixing provided for in the law.
 The three dssenters in the decision held, as to price fixing that it valid and in this the Chief Justice also concurred.
 In the wages and hours provisions the majority and the Chief Justice held that these not true regulation of interstate commerce and that the power to establish wages and hours had been unlawfully delegated to private persons. The three dissenting Justices contended that these points not being decided now" and gave opinion.
 The point of salient interest to Aaskans is that the majority of Court firmly holds that Congress does not have the power to regulate wages and hours in the mining industry it's second largest industry hold ing that such power is local and cannot come under the power congress has to legislate in matters of interstate commerce

Horoscope ''The stars incline
 but do not cOmpel'
FRIDAY, JUNE 5, 1886.

| FRlDA JUNE D, 1850.
 Adverse planetary aspects are strong today, according to astrology It is day for caution and not aus picious for buying.
 Under this sway the judgment may be inaccurate regarding fi- nancial transactions and political candidates. It is easy to be deceiv- ed and for this reason decisions should be postponed. Conferences or interviews with persons who wield wide influence in business or social affairs are un- der a sinister direction of the stars at this time when there will be much instability of mind.
 Sinister signs today rule nations and encourage discord that may add to the dangers that lead to war. This planetary government affects individuals and precipitates quar- rels.
 Merchandising, wholesale and re- tail, is subject to favorable condi- tions which promise summer of first rate trade for many lines of business.
 Although real estate will be in demand this is not an suspicious day for making investments. Farm CTS are likely to find malign influ- ences affecting certain crops.
 Pests will be numerous through the coming year and insects will cause losses to gardeners and ag- riculturists. Early attention to safeguarding growing plants is urged
 The mind should be guarded against evil suggestion and malic- ious gossip at this time. There will be bitter criticism and mis- representation affecting persons in every walk of life.
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of year of min gled good and bad luck. Specula- tion should be avoided For many sudden strokes of good fortune are indicated.
 Children born on this day prob ably will be exceedingly ambitious and successful Subjects of this sign often are unusually intelligent
 John Couch Adams, British as- trologer, was born on this day 1919. Others who have celebrated it as a birthday include Bushrod Washing ton, jurist, 1762; A d a m Smith, Scottish philosopher, 1723. Copyright, 1936)

Twilight of Utopie
(New York Times)


 High tide for the Townsend movement was reached last December when a supporter of the plan in Michigan was elected to Congress on the Re- publican ticket. But the plans good fortune was its misfortune. As it threatened to make serious progress it became worth while for the coun try to examine it critically and to look into its spon sorship Since this scrutiny began the fortunes of the movement have declined sadly Robert E. Clem- ents the co-founder, admitted month ago before a House committee that in a little more than two years as a direct result of his connections with the movement he had received in salaries, dividends and expenses more than S77O00 The admission was irrevelant to the merits of the Townsend Plan, but led many persons to suspect that perhaps its spon sors were not guided solely by atruistic motives, and hence they began examining the plan itself ln somewhat less religious spirit.
 The testimony that Dr. Townsend has been giving tells nothing about the plan that critics had not already pointed out It was obvious that universal transactions tax would have to affect the farmer as well as everybody else and that such tax could not be collected without endless red tape and an army of snoopers. When Dr. Townsend admitted that under his plan workingman with family and
 gross income of $500 would have to pay the taxes so that single 50 with income of $500 would receive S900 additional, he merely conceded an implication that had long been clear to the un- sympathetic.
 The good doctor, indeed, has conceded too much at times. Asked: Would you pay $200 month to J P Morgan John D. Rockefeller and Andrew w. Mellon, Henry Ford William Randolph Hearst, the DuPonts and other such needy folks?" Dr. Townsend said yes, there would be no discrimination. This, n- deed is in accordance with his original plan. His advisers later however persuaded him to modify 1t, and under the revised plan one with an lndepen- dent income of more than S200 month was not to get anything from the plan, while those with inde- pendent incomes of less than that were to receive only the difference. This revision was important politically But when Dr. Townsend gets an idea, he holds to it. He has forgotten or repudiated this sagacious revision After his plan has been bom barded by two years of annihiatng criticism, he is still convinced that it has no kind of fault or flaw. His followers more tickle, alas! melting away
