Borah amendment to free the States
from the operations of the due proc
esS laws. He said he would approve
an amendment extending the inter-
state power of Congress. He said he
would approve an amendment fixing
a majority of the court at tWo-thirds,
or To, to declare law unconstitu-
tional He said, too, he would approve
an amendment fixing the age Of
justices for retirement, compulsory re-
tirement, at 70 to rs years.
Nicely said Moley had referred to the
Presidents plan as the second best
method in his statement to the COM
mittee Moley replied by saying that
it might be the second best method,
but then the second best method
would be packing the court"
L would rather amend, and amend
and amend than l would pack and
pack and pack" was Moley's final
comment to Senator Neely's questions.
Moley became one of Mr.. Roosevelt's
advisers early in the 1882 campaign,
giving up post as professor of public
law at Columbia University Soon
after throwing his support to the New
Deal he interested a group of his
friends, including Rexford G. Tugwell
and A. A. Berle. jr., in joining the
Democratic forces as technical con-
sultants on economic problems.
Moley Went to London.
Moley became Assistant Secretary of
State and went to London as a men,
ber Of the American delegation to the
international Economic Conference.
While there he clashed with Secretary
of State Hull on questions of policy
and, as the breach Widened Moley re-
signed. After leaving the Government
service he became editor of Vincent
Astor's Today, merged recently with
News-Week, which he now edits.
AS the hearing opened today there
was a possibility Senator Dieterich,
Democrat, of Illinois might ask that
Chief Justice Hughes be summoned
before the committee. Dieterich would
not commit himself on this point. but
he raised some objection yesterday
when letter from the Chief Justice
was read into the record by the first
opposition witness, Senator Wheeler.
Democrat, of Montana.
Hughes, with the concurrence of
Justices Brandeis and Van Devanter,
stated unequivocally that the Roose-
velt bill would impair the efficiency of
the court. He specifically refrained
from discussing the measure from the
standpoint of policy"
Meanwhile, Democratic opponents
of the bill said there was little chance

to regulate industry and agriculture
in the public interest
Il believe in the purposes of this
New Deal" said Moley. but am not
for this New Deal alone. l am for
future new deals as WELL unhampered
by the dead hand of the past, even
if that past be our resplendent present.
Our New Deal will be an old deal
some time"
Moley argued that 1t would be pos
sible for Congress, under leadership
of the President, to agree on conStl-
tutional amendment and to obtain
speedy action on it. He didn't agree
entirely with the President and other
supporters of the court bill who have
said that it might take years to obtain
a desired constitutional amendment.
Moley was asked a long string of
questions by Senator Nicely intend
ing to show from Moley's past writ
ings, that he believes the Supreme
Court has certain legislative powers
N1OiCy 1lCCly dQIlltLCu lllS SliIllISlIl
of the court.
IF you believe that under the
Constitution as it stands laws held
unconstitutional by the court might
have been sustained, why do you
now want an amendment to the Con-
stitution?" asked Neely.
Moley said, ito do a complete job
you will have to have an amendment"
He added, in reply to a question, that
many of the New Deal objectives have
been accomplished When Neely ques-
toned him as to whether relief had
been granted to the farmer and to
labor Moley said relief is being ad-
ministered in Pickwickian sense"
Favors Minimum Wages.
In reply to another question Moley
said Il am in favor of minimum
wages, but I am not sure even if six
new justices were appointed that the
law would be held constitutional"
Senator Nicely asked whether the
witness could give the committee the
language of an amendment to the
Constitution he would support
No" said Moley. Il believe it
should be matter of common coun-
sci, and did not come here prepared
to deal with specific amendment. ;"
He added that he advocated an
amendment two years ago. If some
ing had been done at that time an
amendment would have been adopted
by now. Nicely asked if the witness
could tell what the Supreme Court
would do about the new farm law.
"It would be very wonderful man
who could tell that" said Moley.
1T would be a very wonderful court,
too," interjected Senator Borah.
Senator Neely asked the witness if
he did not believe it really would be
helpful to appoint six new justices now.
Moley replied that he thought it would
be ''the nineteenth best method" OF
dealing with the situation. This
aroused Nicely. He insisted that the
witness give the 18 better methods.
Suggests Four Amendments.
First, an amendment to the Con-
stitution," said Moley; second, an
amendment to the Constitution, and
third, an amendment to the Constitu-
ton"
Nicely insisted that Moley himself
was now speaking in a PickWickian
sense and that he had given only one
of the methods. Finally, Moley sug-
gested four separate amendments
without giving exact language for
them. He said he would approve the

Motor inspection Fee, Sale
Referendums and Bar En-
trance CurbS Asked.
BY JACK ALLEN,
Stan Correspondent Of The Star.

ANNAPOLIS, March 23.-The
House Judiciary Committee was
wrestling today with three new bills,
introduced by Prince Georges and
Montgomery County legislators, that
are expected to draw bitter attacks
from many quarters of the State
They provide for a 50-cent fee for
the semi-annual motor vehicle in
spections heretofore made without
charge, tightening Of requirements on
prospective law students and for
referendums on the sale of alcoholic
beverages in the counties.
Members of the House already have
killed the latter measure In one form,
but Delegate Walter NJ Magruder of
Montgomery has offered it again with
a change that is intended to appease
somewhat opponents of the proposal.
All three were presented last night
as the State Assembly swung into the
final two weeks of its 1887 session. At
the same time three Montgomery
measures of minor nature passed
the Senate and are ready for Gov.
Nice's signature.
Would Split Fee.
Both the State and garages which
carry on the work of inspecting motor
vehicles would share in the new So
cent fee, the latter receiving 35 cents
and the State getting the remainder
to further its traffic safety campaign

forcement Of the proposed act
Fines for motorists operating with
out proper inspection stickers or for
unregistered garages issuing stickers
would range from ST to sl0O for the
first offense and from sl0O to $500
for subsequent violations

the Prince Georges delegation, spon-
