LAWS BEFORE
HIGHC0URT


The Supreme Court planned to
complete arguments for the term
today with only two major Roose-
welt Administrator constitutional
questions to be decided before the
probable summer adjournment
day, June /.
These are cases involving the
validity of the Guffey coal act
setting up a Little MIRA" for the
soft coal industry, and the Wilcox
municipal bankruptcy act which.
for the first time, permitted
cities and subdivisions to cut their
debts through bankruptcy.
ClOuded in Secrecy
While a decision was possible
in both cases today, many court
observers believed the rulings
would be postponed for at least
two weeks. The courts attitude
and time Of the Guffey law rul-
ing were clothed in secrecy.
After today'S decision the court
was expected to recess until May
Is. Decisions on three consecutive
Mondays, beginning on that date,
may clean up the calendar.
Under Chief Justice Hughes the
court has maintained its record
Of recent years Of clearing up its
docket completely before entering
on the summer vacation.
Minimum Wage Law
The high court had before 1t a
case of far-reaching Importance
In which conStitutionality Of the
New York minimum wage law for
women and minors is questioned.
1t also is expected to announce
within two weeks whether or not
it will review a decision Of the
Fourth Circuit Court Of Appeals
holding constitutional Public
Works Administration grants and
loans to counties and cities for
establishment Of publicly owned
power plants.
