his ministry of less than three years:
ministry which still goes on though
he was hung on a cross by cruel and
mistaken men, more than nineteen
hundred years ago

Being Tested
By Georgiians

valdosta, Ca, Sept. 23.-(AP)- A
hearing involving the first test of
the 1888 agricultural adjustment act
was planned here today before a
three-jNdge Federal court.
Constitutionality of flue-cured to-
bacco marketing quotas and the PEN
atty tax imposed for excessive sales
are challenged, in suits before the
court, filed by Georgia tobacco grow
ers.
The actions contended the sAAA of
1894 under which marketing was
fixed for the nations principal crops
was unconstitutional in that Con-
gress assumed authorities not directly
granted by the Constitution"
Growers also asserted tobacco grow
ing was not an interstate industry,
and therefore, was not subject to
Federal regulation.
A. j. Little, one of the attorneys
bringing the suits, estimated Georgia
and Florida growers would have to
pay penalties totalling between ST.
600, 900 and $5,OOO,OOO if the law was
upheld.

Our present upswing will be halted
