AGE BENEFIT CASE
BEFORE HIGH COURT
Social Security Act Phase
to Be Argued-0i| Tax of
Philippines Upheld.

Arguments on validity of the old
age benefit sections of the Federal
Social Security act will begin tomor-
row before the Supreme Court.
The old-age benefits were declared
unconstitutional by the First Circuit
Court of Appeals in case arising in
Massachusetts,. This ruling also in
validated the unemployment COM
penSation features of the act, but they
are already before the court in liti-
CATION begun in Alabama. The JUS
tlces may pass on both aspects of the
law, together with the legality of
cooperative State enactments, when
they return from their customary re-
cess May IT.
In a brief session yesterday the
court upheld a provision of the 1894
revenue act imposing processing tax
OF 3 cents a pound on coconut oil
imported from the Philippines The
money derived from the tax, expected
to run into millions of dollars an
nually, will be turned over to the
Islands by the Federal Treasury.
In the only other decision rem
dered, the court upheld the right of
the Government to sue for the re-
coVery of money in this country as
signed to it by the Soviet govern
ment. The particular case before the
court involved a claim of some $4,000
against the estate of the late August
Belmont, private banker of New York
City, but Federal officials said about
$8,000000 in all was involved.
The justices also refused to review
the conviction in Police Court of the
Great Atlantic & Pacific Tea Co. for
selling short weight meat.

BY the Associated Press
GALVESTON, Tex, May 4.-Presi-
dent Roosevelt and his fishing COM
panions counted on favorable Gulf
sea today to augment their near
record catch Of IA tarpon yesterday.
The President landed his first since
he began fishing Saturday off Port
Aransas-a 0-pounder-and nearly
caught another.
In the only official word received
here late last night, the Chief Exec
utive who personally dictates the dis
patches, merely said:
Returned after dark this evening,
Monday. Total catch a. every one In
party contributing. Splendid days
sport. Plans for tomorrow depend
upon condition Of sea. Every one in
fine spirits"
But Corpus Christi, in the general
vicinity Of the presidential fishing
grounds. learned of the Presidents S
own catch.
Earlier in the day, from the same
port, came report that Capt. Paul
Bastedo, the Presidents naval aide,
caught four; Elliott Roosevelt and
Col. Edwin NJ Watson, military aide,

Nine. Ca'itacu7ene Installed As
Head of G.. O.P. Women of D. C..
Ne,U President Thinks
Roosevelt Is Losing
in Popularity.

Nine, Julia Cantacuzene was inau-
gurated as president and Mrs. Frank
Mondell vice president of the League
of Republican Women of the District
at meeting yesterday in the Raleigh
Hotel.
The meeting also was marked by the
acceptance of an invitation by John
Hamilton, chairman of the Repub-
lican National Committee, to open a
reception room for women at Repub-
lican national headquarters.
A committee to take charge of this
work consists of Mrs Virginia White
Speel, Nine. Cantacuzene, Mrs. Wal
lace H. White, Mrs. Arthur vanden-
berg, Mrs. Charles L. McNary, Mrs.
Bertrand H. Smell, Mrs Albert E. Car
ter and Mrs. Cooper Rhodes.
In her address Nine. Cantacuzene
said she had observed during recent
travels that President Roosevelt ap-
peared to be losing prestige"
Il have done much travelling about
the country during the past Winter"
she said and have found that the
President seems to have lost much and
seems to be losing more of the power
of his early prestige. He seems to be
unable to dictate as he once did
Newspapers no longer print his orders
in large-type headlines. Enactment
of the bill embodying changes in the
Supreme Court, so ardently desired
by the Executive, according to his own
statements, has been delayed for six
weeks, and from the vote in the Ju-
dietary Committee, it looks as though
it was going to be defeated.
The President at first said he would
go out and stump the country for this
bill. Did he perhaps find that the
response to his fireSide talk on the
need to pack the court did not 60
over as expected? His voice, though
it echoed with the usual pleasant
notes, did not produce its former ef-
fect'of dominance. Instead, it aroused
an antagonism difficult to compre-
hend and an adverse verdict by the
people.
But the President did not 60 to
the people as he had promised In
stead he went to Warm Springs and
now, again, he is on the high seas

own action.

intention, given on the eve OF his cleo

Democrats are deserting him and the

Gratis in Congress in harmony with

In contrast, the Republicans all

are working quietly but effectively.
Their chances of success at the next

Three weeks on the trail and in the hills hunting proved to Tom Landon, John Cross and Bert Han sen that Mary Hansen, Bert's wife. was as skilled at mushing dogs or at bringing down a mountain sheep as any of them, said the News-Miner when the quartet returned to Fair banks after a three weeks hunting trip in the Bonnifield country. They obtained their limit on sheep and reported having had a fine time The trip was made with two dog teams, and they mushed a total of 19O miles.
 In the Bonnifield they camped in cabin 5000 feet up in the sheep country and for fuel they dug coal from a nearby vein. Mrs. Hansen was right out with the hunters and got her share of sheep. However, on her way downtown in Fairbanks, the lady veteran of the trails and inured to the hardships of mid winter hunting, couldn't take it. and arrived at her destination with her nose frostbitten. Just how it happened she was at a loss to know, as she faced all kinds of stormy weather at extremely low tempera- lures on the long trip to Bonnefield and back to Fairbanks. She is one of the most capable Of hunters and dog team drivers in Alaska. Among her other notable trips was one in which she entirely circled the base of Mt. Mckinley on a tour that re- quired weeks,

FUR SHORT BUT BARROW
 CELEBRATES CHRISTMAS

POINT BARROW, Dec ?6-De- spite the shortage of fun this year, natives at Point Barrow held their usual Christmas program. Gifts to lfem included remembrances rom Mrs. Whey Post whose husband, the celebrated round-the-World tlier. to- gether with Will Rogers, famous numorist and popular motion picture actor, were killed in the summer oi 1885 in the crash of their ,rpiane 15 miles from Point R4soW. re bodies of Post and Rogers and the Wreckage of their plane were brought to Point Barrow by natives of the community.
 The white population of Point Barrow gathered at the home of Rev. and Mrs. Leree Klereko2per tomorrow for Christmas dinner.
 Poor Trapping Season
 Early returns from trapping in dicate a poor season in the Point Barrow district and in the area to the eastward. In a normal year Point Barrow natives have from 200 to 300 pelts by Christmas. They have not more than 20 Up to this time. Reports from the eastward indicate a shortage of fur there also.
 Natives to the eastward are nov ing inland from the Arctic coast. They are killing caribou against a recurrence of the food shortage that occurred last year. The natives to the eastward are abandoning their villages and following the game mi grations to insure them a good clething supply.
 Reindeer Roundup Abandoned
 Point Barrow natives have been forced to abandon their roundup of reindeer on account of the scatter ing of the herds by wolf raids. Few CT than 1S,000 reindeer were count ed and marked. With the reindeer many caribou were mixed. Native herders claim they would spend the day during the roundup driving reindeer into corrals and that wolves would scatter the deer at night.
