Hughes wrote a vigorous dissent
which was concurred in by JUS

Hughes dissented on the grounds
that there was a substantial diff
ference between the 1923 District
OF Columbia case and the New
York law

federal constitution which denies
to the state the power to protect
women from being exploited by

Hughes said.
The majority ruling written by
Justice Pierce Butler was based
squarely upon the courts ruling
in the District of Columbia case.
Butler said the court majority
found the principles OF the District
of Columbia case sound"
While joining in the Hughes
opinion, the three liberals joined

FUND ASSURED
ALLEY WORK,
IS BELIEF.

A substitute plan to provide
funds for the Alley Dwelling Au.
thority for the next fiscal year to,
day promised to settle the diff
culties which arose when the
House cut 100000 from the de-
ficiency bill intended to pay for
future work.
Although the $500 900 item was
approved by the Budget Bureau,
House appropriation leaders de-
clared it was not the intent OF
Congress to provide more than
the original 100000 appropriated.
Capper Offers Plan
Under the guidance of Senator
Arthur Capper (R0, of Kansas,
father Of the plan, it was sug-
gested to the Senate Appropria-
tions subcommittee that the bill
carry authority for the organlza-
ton to use its unexpended bal
ance and receipts. 1t was pointed
out that in this way the group
would have approximately $3.50
900.
It is understood that the House
will, not oppose this plan, as the
leaders have Signified their will
ingness to Inappropriate existing
funds for this purpose.
When the proposal was adj
vanced late yesterday, John Ihlder,
appearing for the authority, was
backed in his plea by Senator Cap
per and representatives of numer-
Gus civic associations in the city.
Aims of Law Cited
Senator Capper, it is understood,
explained the intent of the act-to
clean up Washington's slums-and
pointed to the progress already
achieved in buying UP property in
certain sections of the city.
Only one voice was 4aiSed in
criticism of the authority's actions,
that of Rufus Lusk, representing
the washington Taxpayers Associ.
alton. He told the committee that,
while he was in favor of continu.
ing the work, he thought some linn.
itation should be put on purchaS.
ing property not directly AUDITING
on the alleys.
