JUDGE HINTS
VA. MILK ACT
INVALID

ALEXANDRIA, Va, July 81.
Indications that Virginia's milk
act as set up by the Virginia Mix
Commission is unconstitutional
were shown here yesterday as q
hearing on the validity of the act
was argued in the United States
Court for the Eastern District be.
fore three Federal judges.
Declaring that if certain provi.
sions Of the milk act were legal
that the Virginia people didn't
have proper rights, Judge Morris
Soper, Of Baltimore, Md, queS-
toned at length attorneys defend
ing the milk act.
Judge Soper asked Major Edwin
H. Gibson, an assistant attorney
general Of Virginia who is defend
ing the act, If the milk act EN-.
powered the commission to refuse
q license to a prospective milk pro
Queer who might want to settle
In a certain part Of the State.
Major Gibson replied that the
commission was given this power
so as to prevent overcrowding Of
certain milk producing areas and
that the act did give the commits
sion power to refuse q license to
any new producer that the com.
mission thought would be over
crowding the particular area in
which he planned to settle. Major
Gibson added that II the commits
sion didn't have this power that
the act would not be worth the
paper it was written on.
It was at this point that Judge
Soper remarked that IF this were
true then the rights Of the citizens
Of Virginia are not worth much
either"
Challenge of the validity Of the
act was brought into the court by
the Highland Farms Dairy, Inc, q
Washington dairy which sells its
products in Virginia, and attor
neys for the dairy stated that
their client was prepared to carry
the case on through to the United
States Supreme Court If necessary.
An attempt by the milk commits
sion to fix the price at which the
Highland Dairy Farm retails its
milk in Virginia brought the issue
to a showdown when Luther ".
High, operator Of the dairy, pro
tested that such action was inter.
ference with interstate commerce
in that it prohibited Washington
diaries from selling in Virginia
without q Virginia license.

Another Dismissal


The American Federation Of
Government Employees continues
to simmer.
On top Of the discovery that the
anti-Babcock factions will back
Ruloff R. Strattan for president
at the national convention Sep
TENDER II, in Detroit. comes an
outright defiance Of the organiza-
tons executive council by the De-
partment Of Justice lodge, which
the executive council recently sCs-
pended.
The lodge, which has been car
rying on a fight against dismissals
of it's members for alleged ineffi.
cheney in the fingerprint depart
ment division of the Federal BIZ
reau Of Investigation, today an
nounced that Director j. Edgar
Hoover had discharged another
member on similar charges.
Declaring the dismissal makes
the eighth which the lodge has
suffered in recent weeks, members
today said Bureau Of Investigation
officials cut the worker from the
roll because he had been active on
the committee which has been up
holding the previous union pro-
tests, which include charges Of
overtime in the fingerprint divi-
sion. A delegation was to call
upon Direcor Hoover today, and
an open meeting of sympathetic
members is scheduled to be called
within a few days.
Also the lodge announced today
that it will Ignore the suspension
by the executive council" since it
was allegedly made in violation of
the A.F.G.E. constitution and will
ask support Of all lodges and trades
unions in the city in its fight for
reinstatement Of the eight dis
charged employees of the Bureau Of
Investigation. The fight, of course,
will be continued at the national
convention in Detroit.
Justice lodge members declare
their suspension is the result of
"a sharp political struggle within
the national office for the presi-
dency Of the A.F.G.E., which was
vacated by the resignation Of E.
Claude Babcock two months age"
They say they fear their suspen-
sion will be followed by suspension
Of other lodges which have op-
posed "the executive officers who
now dominate the national office"
Hard Hits 'em
William Hard, political writer
now broadcasting for the Repub-
hcan national committee, recently
charged that more than a thou
sand publicly paid employees of the
United States are working whole
time or part-time preparing and
producing New Deal publicity and
propaganda" He said:
'Even relief workers are
pressed into the Government
service. For instance, in the
publicity manual got out by the
Works Progress Administration,
there Is an outline for the pro-
ductiOn of . sO-called combine
ton radio program. For this
program music is to be prepared
by. musicians on relief. A Skit
is to be prepared by writers on
relief. The voices are to be fur.

people on relief, accordingly, are
