take" but held stud poker was spe-
cifically defined in the penal code as
a game Of chance and therefore illegal.
The other players, Mr.. Clifton said
in his statement, were Tommy Gui-
nan, brother of the late Texas Gui-
nan; Jack Reynolds and George Lewis.
He said that two years ago he had met
Mr.. Brice and Mr.. Lewis, who repre-
sented himself as a millionaire, that
he lost $4,000 to them in a poker
game and thought nothing of it.
A week ago, he said, he met Mr..
Guinan, Mr.. Lewis, Mr.. Reynolds and
Mr.. Brice in Long Beach.
Mr.. Clifton said the five played
dealers choice and he lost about
81 900. Then came the big hand.
He had kings back to back, Mr.. Cliff
ton said, and had bet $50,O00 up to
the last card. On the fifth card he
got his second jack, while Mr.. Brice
had only a pair of sevens showing, so
he bet another 100000. Then Mr..
Brice called, he related, and turned
over the third seven.
Superior Judge Ernmet H. Wilson
granted restraining order against a
Los Angeles bank, where payment was
to have been made. The $4,000 check
was on New York bank and a $780,

REPUBLIC, FORD
CASES SRESTUD|ED
N. L. R. B. May Act in View
OF Possible Supreme
Court Ruling.

Fearing its procedure may have
been faulty in five or six cases, in
view of recent Supreme Court deci-
sion, the National Labor Relations
Board is considering reopening the
Republic Steel Corp. case and the Ford
Motor Co. case, it was disclosed yes
terday.
The other cases, not OF national
importance. also may be reopened.
Charles Fahy, general counsel for
the labor board. said last night he did
not concede that the procedure was
faulty, but was considering reopening
the cases to guard against the posi-
bility of Supreme Court ruling,
should the cases ultimately reach
that tribunal. on procedural questions
rather than on the merits.
I'm 10 decisions, Mr.. Fahy said,
"the Supreme Court has never found
that our procedure was faulty or in
adequate. The same thing is true Of
many more decisions in the Circuit
Courts. But since a degree Of doubt
has been raised in these cases, it would
seem that the sensible thing to do may
be to reopen them. Otherwise a
great deal OF time may be wasted in
taking the cases up and then having
them sent back for correction of pro-
cedural errors without securing a rul-
ing on the real merits"
Schedules Set Aside.
The high court last Monday set
aside rate schedules fixed by Secre-
tary OF Agriculture Wallace for the
Kansas City stockyards on the ground
the commission men affected had not
been given fair hearing to determine
the fairness Of the existing rates
charged. Mr.. Wallace fixed his new
rates on the basis OF factual find-
ings by Investigators The commits
sion men were not given an oppor-
tunity to examine or refute those
findings OF fact, and the court held
that to have been a fatal procedural
error.
Ordinarily the Labor Board, accord
ing to Mr.. Fahy. submits the findings
OF fact of its investigators to employ
ers against whom complaints have
been made. That was not done in
the Republic and Ford cases, however,
as no preliminary investigation was
mace, the parties being brought di-
rectly before the board, which heard
the cases at great length.
The Labor Board announced 1t was
considering Withdrawing its complaint
against the Ford company on Tues
day and taking similar action in the
Rpublic case at about the same time
In New York Frederick H. Wood,
counsel for the motor company, said
the proposal to withdraw the petition
for enforcement of the boards order
against the Ford company was face

Of the manner in which it arrived at
its decision in the Ford case"
