between the Sttaes."
BY a five-to-fOur decision the
high court reversed a Federal Dis
trict Court ruling invalidating the
New York marketing order promul-
gated last September and by six

Federal Court decision upholding
the constitutionality of the Boston
order.
Chief Justice Hughes and Justices
McReynolds. Roberts and Butler dis
sented from the New York opinion,
but only Justices McReynolds. Rob-
erts and Butler dissented in the
Boston case.
Three Points of Attack.
Constitutionality of the Marketing
ing Agreements Act was attacked on
three major points, first, that Con-
gress had no power to fix minimum
prices; second, that the equaliza-
ton pool, through which all pro-
ducers received a uniform price. vio-
lated the due process clause of the
Constitution by requiring handlers
to pay into the pool their surplus
over the uniform price, and third.
that the act delegates unwarranted
power to the Secretary of Agricul-
ture.
The majority opinion said the
equalization sis ancillary to price
regulation. designed, as is the price
provision, to foster, protect and en-
courage interstate commerce by
smoothing out difficulties of the sur
plus and cut-throat competition
which burdened this marketing"
In minority opinion Justice
Roberts wrote that he was of the
opinion that the New York order lis
not authorized by the act, but
if it is authorized, deprives the ap-
pellees of their property without due
process of law in violation of the
fifth amendment" He added that
"the Chief Justice joins in this opin-
ion so far as it relates to the in
validity of the order on the ground
stated; Mr.. Justice McReynolds and
Mr.. Justice Butler also join in this
opinion" The latter two also issued
a separate dissenting opinion in the
New York case, declaring the order
of the Secretary of Agriculture "is
not government by law but by ca
price"
In the third major case decided
the court held that lapse of time
and rejection by 10 States had not
killed the proposed child labor
amendment, pending since 1924.

"DISILLOUSIONMENT"

Intelligent and foresighted repre-
sentatives of organized American
labor are awakening to the menace
of government ownership and con-
troll of business.
For example, the Union Register
of Seattle, Wash, newspaper
which is owned and published by
the Oregon-Washington Council of
Lumber and Sawmill Workers, an
affiliate of the American Fedora
ton of Labor, recently ran a lead
editorial concerning the WP A
strikes. The editorial was entitled
"Disillousionment,' and it said, in
part: "The WPA includes some two
million workers. 1t represents the
largest single bloc of workers in the
nation. Yet with all its strength it
will accomplish nothing because
there is no power on earth to COM
pei the government to either nego-
tiate or arbitrate.
IF the two million men employed
by the WPA were working in a
private industry, their numerical
strength alone would insure them a
quick redress against any form of
exploitation. Against the govern
ment which need not arbitrate or
negotiate, their strength is useless. :. e.
LAS workers in private industry
we are free to mould our own des-
tiny and win for ourselves the best
wages and conditions which our or
gained strength can produce. IN
der government ownership we
would have to take what was hand
ed us without any form of redress.
That is why we have fought SO
long and so hard for democracy and
The American way"
The WPA strike failed. About
the only tangible result was the dis
charge of number of workers who
did not return to their jobs within
the five days allowed them. The
strike failed just exactly as a strike
against the government would fail
in Germany, Russia or Italy, where
the people have been subjected to
the most ruthless kind of official
despotism. What worker in private
industry in this country, after OBJ
serving the examples of state So
cialism abroad, can honestly argue
that he would be better off under
government ownership of industry
the true name for which is total

That there are good things in the

that the lazy and incompetent work

LABOR AND THE LAW

The action of the house in APPROX
ing a resolution to investigate the
National Labor Relations Board de-
serves mmendation-from worker
as well as employer. For, rightly
or wrongly, this board, and the act
creating it, has probably done more
to damage the interests of legiti-
matt organized labor than any law
ever put on the statute books.
The labor relations act was, ae-
cording to its sponsors, designed to
end labor strife. In practice, it has
fomented it, and been the direct
cause of the bitter warfare between
the CLIO and AFL. 1t was supposed
ly designed to put dealings between
management and employees on a
fair and equitable basis. Insted, it
has deprived the employer of vital
rights and placed almost unlimited
authority over industrial policies in
the hands of a politically appointed
group. 1t was supposedly going to
call halt to labor racketeering.
Instead, it has encouraged it, and
gone long way toward placing the

tations of their loaning methods
and policies to meet varied require
ments of individuals and business
concerns applying for credit.
3. The needs of small borrowers
in the fields of business and per-
sonal finance alike are being well
taken care of by the commercial
banks.
This shouldn't come as sur
prise to anyone who has thought
about banking. Loans are CONNER
cial banks main source of liveli-
hood. They pay the overhead and
the profits, if any They help the
community grow, which is neces-
sary to the growth of the bank.
No banks want to refuse any
loans, but there is percentage of
loan applications which must be re-
fuSed-becauSe they are unSound or
unsafe, would endanger the deposit
ors' savings, and perhaps be illegal.
After all, the banker doesn't own
the money, and the protection of
his depositors, who do own it, must
come first But that doesn't obviate
the fact that banks are more than
eager to make sound loans, for any
productive, legal purpose.

Most important development of a
long time in our foreign policy was
the sudden scrapping, by this gov
eminent, of the U. S.-Japanese COM
merce and navigation treaty of 1911.
Six months notice, under the terms
of the treaty, is required to abro-
gate thereafter, if congress wish
es, it will be possible to completely
shut off our trade with Nippon.
Quickly as the move was made,
it came as no great surprise to
those who understand stern Secre-
tary Hull's high-principled theories
of international morality. No man
has greater regard for truth, JUS
tict and decency in the relations Of
nations. No man has greater ha-
tired for a strong power bullying
and destroying weaker power.
Obvious motive behind the treaty
denunciation is the opinion that the
implied threat may be strong fac
tor in bringing the japanese to
book. They depend on us for a
long list of essential war and peace
commodities. Some think that if
we broke off commercial relations
with them they would be virtually
ruined. And under any circum-
stances, we are in a far better po-
sition to do without Japan's trade
than she is to do without ours.
No one knows whether congress
would sanction a trade embargo
aimed at Nippon-perhaps it would
MT, but the chance exists, and Tok-
20 knows it. AS a result, the state
departments move has received
general support, in and out of con-
gress, and in and out of admins
tration circles. Some think it brings
with it the danger of a japanese
war-most think that possibility is
too remote to be given much weight.
