BLACK DISSENT
HINTS AT DRIVE
TO CURB, COURT
AIabaman Differs Even
From Liberals"
BY WILLIAM s. NEAL

UN.S) Justice Hugo L. Black
today apparently had embarked
upon a definite campaign. through
dissenting opinions, to limit the
scope of the Supreme Court de-
cisionS.
A severe critic Of the high tribu-
nal while in the Senate, Justice
Black rapidly assumed a lone role
in dissenting from the court on
many issues, differing even from
the liberal justices, BrandeiS, Cor
dozo, and Stone.
HOLDS SCOPE EXCEEDED
In a half dozen dissenting
opinions in four months on the
bench. Justice Black has each
time asserted that the court has
gone beyond its proper scope.
In one dissenting and one con-
curing opinion yesterday, Justice
Black carried his opposition to
the majority rulings one step
further. Justice Black has:
/. In a dissenting opinion in
a California case, attacked a
court precedent Of So years
standing by asserting that cor
porations cannot invoke the
due process clause Of the Four
teenth Amendment.
2. Assailed majority opinion
in utility cases, supporting the
historical cost theory Of valua-
tion and denouncing use OF
reproduction cost in determin-
ing value.
8. Criticized majority opinion

lated obligation Of contract in
revising, permanent tenure law
for teachers. Justice Black as
serted that the State had the
right to change the law with
out interference by Federal
courts.

cations Commission will be made
tonight by the World Wide Broad
casting Foundation. It will be
wired to the foundations station,
WIXAL, in Boston, for broadcast
ing throughout Latin America.
Messages from Secretary of
State Hull and DR.. Leo S. Rowe,
director general of the Pan-Ameri-
can Union, will be read.
The Washington times., 1938-02-15

: In an effort to develop an In
flationary movement, the Treas
ury announced it would refrain
from "sterilizing" $400, 100000 Of
newly acquired gold each year at
the rate of $100,000,000 every
three months.
AS this amount of gold comes
to the Treasury from abroad or
from domestic mines, the Govern
ment will pay for it with new cur
rency. This currency will increase
the idle funds of banks.
GOLD FLOW SLACKENS
Under the gold sterilization"
program. adopted in December,
1896, all new gold acquisitions
have been paid for with money
borrowed from the banks. This
policy was adopted when heavy
inflows of foreign gold forced the
Treasury to issue so much new
currency that dangerous credit
initiation was feared.
At present the flow Of gold to
the United States has diminished
considerably, and the Govern
ment's yellow metal stock has in
creased only by $30,000,000 since
January /. Last year an average
of more than $200,000,000 in gold
was added to the Treasury's stocks
each month.
In deciding to issue new cur
rency against $100,000,000 of
newly-acquired gold each quarter,
Treasury and Federal Reserve Of
ficials hoped to stir an inflationist
psychology.
MINOR EXPANSION ONLY
Actually, the addition of $400,-
100000 to bank reserves this year
will represent only a minor ex-
pansion in the amount of idle
funds now available for credit pur-
poses. EXCESS bank reserves that
can be utilized for loans to in
dustry at present total more than
81 400, 900, 900.
Officials believed. nevertheless,
| GIldU oil A41IdO1OkA POSO44OAOSy
would engender a sharp revival
of buying by industry.
Conceding that there is no need
at present to increase bank re-
serves, they contended the Admin
istration's latest move to maintain
easy money conditions might stim-
ulate industrial borrowing for ex-
pansion and production purposes.
AVOIDS BORROWING COST
Another important reason for
the new policy is that the Treasury
will be relieved of the expense of
borrowing money to pay for $780,
100000 of gold each quarter. Gold
acquired above that amount in
any quarter will continue to be
SteriliZed.
To launch the new program,
the Treasury will release the $780,
100000 already acquired for the
first quarter Of 1898.
The Treasury currently holds
$12,755, 100000 in gold, of which
81, 1,223,000,000 has been "steril.
