LEWIS SCORES
H|GHC0UR7

The New Orleans Federal
Court decision holding the Wag,
ner labor act is unconstitutional
was termed by John L. Lewis,
president of the United Mine
Workers, yesterday, Characters,
tic Of the judicial autocracy now
being created in our country.
He Said
"This autOcracy Is multiplying
the representative form of our
Government. The representa-
tiveS of the people gathered to-
gether in the Federal Congress
are no longer capable of ex-
pressing the will of the people
or of legislating in an emer-
gency to preserve the republic.
"After every major legislative
enactment the representatives
of the people in Congress are
placed on trial before our ju-
dicial tribunals and they are
adjuged incapable Of legislating
wisely.
Certainly it is time that the
people and the Congress were
aroused to the dangers of q
judicial Oligarchy, governing
the republic through negative
action and escaping the re-
SpOnSibilities of affir m ative
leadership"

COUNTY

ROCKVILLE, Md. June IT.
The Montgomery County Board
Of Commissioners has denied
permission to j. E. Conrad to
build a refuse disposal incinera-
tor in the abandoned power sta
ton near Chevy Chase Lake. Ac-
ton of the board was in accord
ance with the mass protest of
more than 200 residents of that
section.
In denying the application, the
commissioners granted that
there was a need for a plant
for the disposal of trash and
garbage in the metropolitan
area of the county, but re-
fused to approve the construc-
ton of an incinerator in that
district in the face of such
strenuous opposition from resi-
dents Of the neighborhood.
At the meeting yesterday. the
commissioners failed to reach a
final decision on the amount of
the county tax levy for the COM
ing fiscal year, but decided that
drastic cuts in police and welfare
budgets would be necessary if the
present $1.50 a $100 rate was to
be maintained. 1t was voted to
hold each of the county police Of
ficerS within $500 year for uni
forms, equipment and transporta-
ton. Approximately $12,850 was
cut from the budget submitted by
the county welfare board.
