plans are more flexible than under
the A-semi-restricted type Of develop
ment. He explained this by saying
the position Of the houses on the

trees
Type Of Structure Factor.
It is easier for a developer to shift
around in his plans for single and
two-famiy houses than it is under
program for fats and row houses
and apartments, Nolen added.
1t is more natural, in building homes
for the people, to take care Of the
trees than it is in the construction
Of apartments and hats for rent,
Nolen observed.
Trees are worth money" said
Nolen. Trees make property more
attractive and cooler. It is practi-
cable to create residential develop
ment Of the highest character by pre-
serving the trees on the ground. In
this wise the trees, streams and other
natural features are-for the most
part-preserved."
Nolen pointed out that in this type
of treatment, with the maximum num-
Der of trees preserved, the real estate
developer is saved the expense and
time of clearing the land and avoids
getting into heavy grading, which is
costly.

The need for real estate operators

an intelligent effort to conserve as

''I am in full agreement with the

marily one of educating the public"

He contended builders should fit

He cited the fact that 1t takes at

 Boo's story of the captain being suspected of communicating the Mai Cantabrico's position to the nation alists. coincided with report in diplomatic circles that Spanish na- tionalist agents knew of every move. ment of the ship and of its plans to run the nationalist naval block ade in disguise before it left New York in January.

 "The ways of actual dIctators and the manner in which they come into power make 1t clearly evident that the courts alone cannot resist their advance" he said. Dictator ships grow out of ill-adjusted eco. homie conditions, out of distress, out of fear, out of injustices--an when these forces are set in motion and dictatorships come into power, all laws, all p-ecedents, all courts. all restraining influences are swept away.
 Same Old Mysteries
 Such assertions of fear are re- mindful of the mournful prognosti- cations which have been made from time to time during the course of American history"

 Borah leaned across the commit tee table and pointing his pencil at the attorney-general said:
 Let us presume that the supreme court were enlarged by six mem bers and then the New York min imum wage case came before 1t and by vote of 6 to 2 it acted on that law. Wouldn't your plan to prevent split decisions have proved a failure?"
 That would depend on which side the eight votes werc," Cum mings replied.
 You mean" asked Sen. William Fl. King, d., Utah, foe of the court bill, that you would expect sym pathetic Judges to be appointed2"
 Not sympathetic to my Views,' Cummings responded. But sym pathetic to the view that an act of congress is constitutional unless provide not to be so beyond req sonable doubt. If that Is what you mean by sympathetic, I say yes, yes"
 Borah--but you would still have what you complain of -- five to four divided opinion.
 Cummings--I did not complain of split decisions. did complain of split decisions which declared an act unconstitutional.
 Borah--But you still would have such split decisions2

 Borah What Is in my mind Is this--f don't zee how you can reach this question without an amend ment. If 15 justices should void the New York minimum wage law we would be right back where we are now.
