WASHINGTON, d. c., April 80
In one of the most far-reaching
decisions handed down by the Su-
preme ,cort OF the United States
since the constitutionality Of the
Grandfather clause was contested be-
fore this tribunal, the court ruled
against Georgia Anti-Insurrection
Law Of 1870 which was invoked
against Angelo Ilerndon upon whom
a twenty-year prison sentence had
been imposed by the Superior court
Of Fulton county, Ga.
The majority opinion Of the court
with the concurrence of Chief JUS
ticc Hughes and Justices Roberts,
Brandeis, Cardozo aud Stone held
that state laws eurbing Communist
activities where there are no direct
implications or appeal to mob vio-
lence for the overthrow of the gov
crnment, are an abridgement o.
freedom Of speech and peacably as
semhly specifically guaranteed undei

States.

do great many things 70 make the
family more effectivee in the sefyiee
to its members and to society But
when we look al the nature Of human
beings and their dependence and IN
terdependence upon one another II
would seem that their needs can best
be met through the family as an IN
stitution. The members Of the fami-
" are bioloeically, economically,
emotionally and eulturally interde-
pendent.
The chief problem, therefore,
does not seem TO be whether the fam-
lily will continue to exist, but whether
it will serve as effectively as should

NYA PROGRAM
PROVIDES FOR GREATER
OPPORTUNITY; SAYS DIRECTOR

Observation-Disclosures enthusi-
astically rs "a bright ray of hope for
the masses Of Negro youth in the
rural South by Mrs. Mary Mcleod
Bethune, Director of the Division of
Negro Affairs Of the National Youth
administrator, new program, MAX
ing training courses in agriculture
and homemaking available to the
sons and daughters of tenant and
other low-income farm families, was
announced this week by Aubrey
Williams, NYA Executive Director.
The trainil courses by the NYA in
cooperation with the Department of
Agriculture and various state agri-
cultural schools and colleges.
Farm youth who have been unable
to get more than an elementary
schooling will be given an opportun-
ity to engage upon work and
learn projects of one to three
months duration at agricultural in
stitutions within on near their home
communities. They will be given
practical instruction in basic farming
and home economics subjects while
working out their subsistence on
projects on the school or ther pub
Lie property, In many cases the work
project will consist Of the building
of workshops and Of cooperative
dormitories IN which they and sub
sequent groups Of students In their
class will be able to live with maxi
mum economy.
The purpose of the program, as
explained by Mr.. Williams, is ito
bring the rudiments of successful
ia m life within reach of those young
people who plan to remain on the
farm but who have never had the
opportunity Of learning properly to
run farm or farm home.
"This project has immense potcn-
tialities,' said Mrs. Bethune. 1T is
the beginning Of the realization Of
q dream for Negro youth that we
have had for long time. We envis-
ion these rural training centers as
family schools, training young men
to be producers and the young women
to be conservers in order to build a
secure and integrated family life up
on family farm.
"The program she said, is of sig
nificance to Negroes for the follow
ing reasons:
tThese rural training centers will
preyida agencies to reach some of the
thousands Of Negro youth not now
enrolled in any school,.
"They will provide opportunity to
offer practical training for immedi-
ate use, unhampered by school cred
it, requirements.
"The possibilities Of building con-
struction will add much needed hous-
ing facilities to Negro schools and at
the same time provide training in
building trade skills.
sThese centers will contribute to
the strengthening of Negro family
life in the rural south, q prime ne
cessity for racial progress.
"These centers may serve Tor
some as feeders for the A&M Col
leges and other schools for certain
selected youth.
ssThe associated work projects
will serve to extend the services OF
the schools to their immediate COM
munities.
s.These centers will serve as educa-
tional wedges in the longtime plan
Of attack upon the evils of farm ten
ancy,"

Power Over Contracts Of
Employer and Worker Undeniabie.
This power under the Constitution
to restrict freedom Of contract has had
many illustrations. That it may be
exercised in the public interest with
respect to contracts between employer
and employe is undeniable Thus
statutes have been sustained limiting
employment in underground mines
and smelters to eight hours a day
(Holden vs. Hardy, 1859 U. S. 1863; in
requiring redemption in cash of store
orders or other evidences Of indebted
ness issued in the payment of wages
Knoxville Iron Co. VS.. HARRISON, 1873
U. S. 13); in forbidding the payment
of seaman's wages in advance (Pat-
terson VS.. Bark Eudora, 100 U. S. 169) ;
in making it unlawful to contract to
pay miners employed at quantity rates
upon the basis Of screened coal instead
Of the weight of the coal as originally
produced in the mine (McLean vs.
Arkansas, 211 U. S. 539); in prohibit
ing contracts limiting liability for in

relation of employer and employed, the
Legislature has necessarily wide field
of discretion In order that there may
be suitable protection Of health and

may be promoted through regulations
designed to insure wholesome condi.

siderable gas showing in the slush
pit, as well as some little oil show
give some encouragement. While
there is some chance for light oil
production in the Frontier, the op-

at the shallow levels. They expect
to test all known sands on their
