 Tt is urged and true that Q bur- den Is placed on the perrnittee who may find substantial difnculties in collecting the receptacles containing liquor and preventing consumption after 12 o'clock midnight. That ar- guinent is more propertly addressed to the legislature. It bears only upon legislative policy.
 Tt is urged that no burden should be placed on the permittee unless 1t is shown that he know- ingly permitted consumption and presence of liquor in glasses after l2 midnight. @
 'If 1t be SO that the burden is generous 1t Is within legislative power only and 1t is c question re- lated to legislative wisdom and pol- icy, c field which the court cannot properly enter"

Norris has suggested that congress restrict the powers of the court SC that 1t could not declare acts oi congress unconstitutional except by unanimous decisions. He is back ing a specific bill to require de. cisions by majorities or more thar two thirds in constitutional ques- tions. The AAA, he pointed out was invalidated by a 6 to 3 de- cision.
 Dickinson declared that major ity rule was fundamental to the American type of democracy ano that to change the court rule would be tending toward destruction o1 "the very fundamentals on which cur government is based" The sen. ate was operating under a self-im. posed limitation of debate and the speeches were necessarily short.
 Norris said that if the problem of soil eraSion is left to the states "the time will come when we vii be another China" Tt can't bt handled by the states" he added land every sensible man knows 1t. He said that every man, woman and child in the United States knows that agriculture is a nationa problem, except some members oi the supreme court who haven"t found 1t out yet"
 Robinson Gets In
 Senate Majority Leader Joseph T Robinson was drawn into debate "The statement that agriculture is 2 mere local problem does not present itself as sound law" Robinson said. He traced earlier court de. cisions which he said showed thai farm legislation in the past ha! been binding. Tt is a very excep. tional thing" he said, flor a cour in a case involving an issue of fact to throw 1t out without a great dea of evidence.
 'Srhis is a feature of the (AAA decision that in my mind impeache! it's value"

He said thu court arbitrarily" declared agri' culture is local matter over whicf the United States has no concerr and can exercise no control" "Sucl assumption of facts unwarranted b. t..e record" he added. raises in an. mans mind doubt as to the meri of the courts decision"

EXPERT ANALYZES
GROWTH OF CITIES
Washington Used as Exam
pie in Outlining Normal
Expansion Course.

An analysis of city growth with
seven principles guiding such ex-
pansion with relation to the effect
on mortgage risk are included in an
article by Homer Hoyt. principal
housing economist, Federal Housing
Administration, in the December is
sue of the Insured Mortgage Port
folio.
Explaining that the operations of
principles attending city growth are
most easily traced as they affect the
growth of higher-priced residential
areas. Hoyt uses Washington as an
example and outlines the following:
l. Growth tends to proceed, from
any given point Of origin, along es-
tablished lines of travel or toward
another existing nucleus Of buildings
or trading centers.
T. The zone of settlement tends to
progress toward high ground which
is free from risk of floods and which
has greater scenic beauty and more
pleasant atmosphere.
3. Residential districts tend to grow
toward the section of the city which
has free, open country beyond its
edges and away from "dead-end" Sec
tions which are limited by natural
or artificial barriers to expansion.
4. The higher priced residential
area tends to grow toward the homes
OF the leaders of the community
5. Trends of movement of office
buildings, banks and stores, where
the higher-income groups work. tend
to throw the trend of movement of
the higher-priced residential areas in
the same general direction.
s. These residential areas tend to
develop along the fastest existing
transportation lines.
T. Their growth tends to continue
in the same direction for a long pc
riod of time.
Hoyt explained that trends in
higher-priced areas usually enter in
some degree into calculations of risks
involved in loans on properties in
other price ranges. He stressed the
fact that operation Of principles gov
srning these trends "are often COM
plicated by factors peculiar to par
ticular cities" and that lit should
be remembered that many elements
other than trends of growth enter
into mortgage risk"
When these principles operate
freely Hoyt explained in his article,
land in conjunction. without the
complications of peculiar factors. the
high-grade residential area tends to
grow in one direction and the newest
and most modern part of this area
tends to establish itself on one part
OF the periphery of the city.
The effect of this outward shift
OF population and high-grade resi-
dental development to a new sec
ton on the outer rim of the city is
to leave behind a zone of obsolete
buildings in which rentals are de-
clining and mortgage risks are in
creasing. On the other hand. moN-
gage investors placing loans on prop
critics in the fore part of the move
ment of the high-grade residential
area are well protected against loss
from declining neighborhood trends.
It follows that those mortgage in
vestors who lag behind the movement
of the high-grade areas are in the
danger zone unless they adjust their
mortgage pattern to the trend Of the
eity's growth"
