counsel for the Bnai Birth, the
Jewish Labor Committee, the Amer
ican Jewish Congress and the Amer
tcan Jewish Committee, today was
denied permission to file brief with
the Supreme Court as friend Of the
court" in the case Of the Schenec-
tady Union Publishing Co. against
Representative Sweeney, Democrat,
Of Ohio.
The newspaper has appealed to
the Supreme Court from a decision
directing the trial of libel suit
brought by Mr.. Sweeney in the
Northern New York Federal District
Mr.. Sweeney contended he was
libeled by a statement in syndi-
Gated column that he opposed the
appointment of Emerich Freed as
a Federal District Judge in Ohio
because Mr.. Freed was Jew. The
newspaper contended the statement
did not indicate Mr.. Sweeney wa'
opposed to the Jewish race because
he opposed Mr.. Freeds appointment
The court has not yet acted on
| the appeal.
Mr.. Ottenberg's proposed brief was
| in support of the newspaper
position. The newspaper agreed te
the filing but Mr.. Sweeney has no,

floor to substitute an overall" price
fixing program which would apply
to rents and wages, as preferable to
the committee-approved scheme OF
fixing ceilings on individual COM
modities when their prices got "out
Of line" and on rents in defense
areas.
Representative Gore. Democrat, of
Tennessee, and Bernard M. Baruch,
World War industries chieftain. have
argued that price control would be
ineffective unless it applied to all
major elements Of the cost Of living.
Mr.. Gore has offered legislation for
such program.
But Leon Henderson, price ad-
ministrator, and House leaders con-
tended that a wage ceiling would be
difficult to enforce, and, besides,
would arouse strong congressional
opposition.
1t became apparent, meanwhile,
that the administration now re-
garded as futile its original intention
to fight third section of the meas
ure which President Roosevelt was
reported to have condemned
strongly.
Farm Price Regulations.
That provision would prohibit the
imposition of ceilings on farm prices
below the l919-1929 average-which
Government statisticians said would
permit farm crop prices to raise
another 20 per cent.
This section also provided two
optional ceilings-the October / price
level, and ITO per cent Of parity
Parity would give farm products
the same value, in terms of purchas-
ing power, that they enjoyed in the
base period 1909-1914)
One OF the Presidents lieuten-
ants said today that the House
| farm bloc was strong enough tt
keep this triple-ceiling provision ir
the bill, and 1T was also believed
that the cotton State Senators
would demand its retention wher
the bill reached their chamber.
Mr. Roosevelt asked for price con.
troll legislation in a message to Con.
gress last July 20. The Bankinl
Committee began hearings August I
and completed writing its own bill
three weeks ago.
Senate Marks Time.
Floor consideration at first wa
held up for various reasons, but tn
threat of protracted delay wa
quickly resolved in favor of the ad
ministration Friday when Speake
Rayburn told Democratic commit
teemen who had been demandin
action on labor legislation that thei
wishes would be granted immedi
ately after the price bill was througl

The schedule called for two day
of general discussion.

MONTGOMERY
Nl SIDELICHTS
By Elsie White Haines

This abandoned brick church en-
an otherwise neat and orderly
street in Poolesville stands as a
mute reminder of the "War Be-
tween the States" Erected in
1926, it was the pioneer Methodist
Episcopal Church in this area.
The greater number of the peo
pie of this vicinity were Southern
sympathizers, though their geo.
graphical situation kept them as
nearly neutral as possible. After
the war, in 1866, most of the men,
bers withdrew from this church and
formed the Methodist Episcopal
Church, South, worshipping in the
Baptist Church until their church
on the Beallsville road was COM
pleted in 1867.
The congregation of the old
church dwindled, an d it was
finally closed. There was stipu-
lation at the time it was built that
the building could be used only
for religious purposes, which killed
a hope that it might be made into
a Health Center.
There it stands not far from the
High School, on the road that leads
to Sycamore Landing. Only few
Jagged pieces of glass are left in
the window frames, plaster is fall
ing from its gaping laths, but the
walls seem as strong as ever.
