Process, Two Judges Rule
BY the Associated Press.

DAYTON, Ohio, March IA
special three-judge Federal court
today enjoined Federal Govern
ment collection of 49-cent-a-
bushel penalties on wheat grown
in excess of A. A. A. marketing
quotas. 1t held invalid the pen
atty increase from Is cents.
1t was two-to-one decision. The
majority opinion made no mention
of the Wheat Control Acts consti-
tutionality. Judge Florence Allen.
dissenting judge, held the act con-
stitutional.
The case, brought by Montgomery
County farmers against Carl r.
Helke, county Agricultural Adjust
ment Administration chairmen, and
Secretary of Agriculture Wickard.
was the first of its kind in the
Nation.
Federal Judges Robert Nevin and
John H. Druffel ruled that an
amendment of the Wheat Act in
creasing the penalty from IS to 40
cents amounted to taking the
farmers property without due proc
eSs.
They pointed out that the penalty
increase was imposed after last
summers crop was planted.
Judge Allen maintained that the
accent penalty was valid.
She is member of the Sixth
District Circuit Court and senior
member of the three-judge special
court that heard the case which
originated last October. Judges
Nevin and Druffel are on the
