Freedom Questioned,
Miami Paper Says
BY the Associated Press.


MIAMI, Nov. 28.-Two Miami
circuit judges were told today that
freedom of the press was at stake
in their citation of the Miami Herald
and its associate editor, John D.
Pennekamp, for contempt Of court.
Judges Marshall c. Wisehart and
Paul D. Barns cited the Herald and
Mr.. Pennekamp after the publica-
ton early this month of two edi-
torials and a cartoon reviewing their
actions in gambling and criminal
assault cases.
Robert r. Milan, former presi-
dent of the Florida Bar ASSocia-
ton, was first to argue when the
case came to trial today that the
newspaper and its editor should not
be adjudged guilty of contempt.
Joining him in the defense were
Elisha Hanson, general counsel for
the American Newspaper Publishers
Association, and Attorney Edward
Fleming
The defendants made what they
considered fair comment and crit
icism," Mr.. Milan declared. THE
courts attempt to lay them by the
heels is bad enough. but when it
heaps odium upon them, branding
them as not worthy of their duty
in keeping the public informed, this
makes the case very serious.
The minute newspaper feels
not free to criticize legal admins
tration, then freedom of the press
has been abridged"

DR.. Rutland had protested, how

Florida High Court
.UphoIds Licensing
Of Union Agents
By the Associated Press.


TALLAHASSEE, Fla, Nov. 2s.-
The Florida Supreme Court ruled
today that labor organizations so
vitality affect the public they may
be regulated by law like other Or
ganizations, and labor union busi-
ness agents may be regulated in
their conduct like insurance agents,
real estate brokers and Others
The unanimous decision upheld a
1943 legislative act requiring union
business agents to obtain licenses
from the State and requiring unions
to make reports showing their name,
location and names and addresses
Of their officers.
An attack on the law was filed by
Leo H. Hill of Jacksonville, presi-
dent of the Florida Federation OF
Labor. who contended it was an un-
constitutional restriction of freedom
OF speech and assembly. He also
contended the labor organizations
should be treated like religious
charitable and educational organi-
IdIlOIiS, anu SHOULD DC Tree OF
licensing regulations.
The act upheld by the court was
one of several labor regulations en-
acted by the 1943 Legislature, which
also submitted to the people a con-
stitutional amendment outlawing
closed shop employment contracts
The amendment was. ratified in the
recent election.
Justice Glenn Terrell, who wrote
the courts opinion, said the licens-
ing OF labor union business agents
requires nothing more than 9
showing of Americanism, good mora
character and freedom from fel-
ony."

Institution for CoIored
Like Critfenton Home
Ito Be Considered

A Biracial Committee to study
the advisability OF establishing a
maternity home for colored un-
married mothers here is being set
up by the Unmarried Parenthood
Committee of the child welfare
division. Council Of Social Agencies,
it was disclosed yesterday.
The committee will explore the
field of existing resources before
determining how facilities should be
extended Mrs. Lois s. Parsons,
chairman of the Unmarried Parent
hood Committee, announced at a
luncheon session at the YWCA. A
national agency, she said, already
has offered funds to assist in provid-
ing special maternity care for this
group.
There is no maternity home in
Washington for colored mothers
such as the Florence Crittenton
Home, 1t was pointed out.
The need OF extending services for
all unmarried mothers here was
emphasized at the luncheon, which
featured panel discussion by repre-
sentatives of various agencies deal
ing with unwed mothers. Provision
of services for nonresident mothers
has posed a special problem, Mrs.
| Parsons said.
Although there has been a slight
decrease in the percentage of lille
gitimate births here in the past 10
years, the actual number of babies
born to unmarried mothers has dou-
bled since 1884, Mrs. Catherine Nor
ton, secretary of the councils di-
vision of family and child welfare,
pointed out.
There has been a slight increase
however, in the number of illegiti-
mate births reported to the Bureau
of Vital Statistics in the first six
months Of this year over the first
six months of 1943, Mrs. Norton
added.
OF 1913 illegitimate births report
ed in Washington last year, she said
two-thirds were colored. Eighty -one
per cent of the mothers were District
residents, she said; Is per cent were
lifelong residents and an additional
Is per cent had lived here more than

War Powers Act 10
Curb U. 5. Agencies
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
The administration faces another
fight in Congress today If 1t tries to
hold intact its vast war powers over
industry and private individuals.
The House Judiciary COMMITTEES
yesterday approved a one-year ex-
tension Of the Second War Powers
Act-the authority for most of the
war controls over manufacturing
and marketing-but it pinned to the
act an administration opposed
amendment making the war agen-
cies subject to the courts.
Under the amendment, affected
dealers can 60 into Federal District
Court and ask an injunction any
time the War Production Board or
other war agency tries to suspend a
priority or ALLEGATION Of critical
materials. Under the present act
the courts have no jurisdiction In
such cases.
Agency spokesmen-and the Army
and Navy-opposed the amendment
in executive sessions of the commit
tee. Some of them, it was reported
expressed private belief the
change would fill the courts with
litigation and impede the Govern
ment's attempts to control the use
of war-critical materials.
The amendment, sponsored by
Representative Hobbs, Democrat, o.
Alabama. gives Federal district
courts jurisdiction to pass on sus-
pension orders, priority ALLEGATION:
or an agency's refusal to pass on ar
application to stay suspension.
Under the present arrangements

can suspend an ALLEGATION of crit
ical materials after once granting
it and the person affected cannot
go into court. The withdrawal o1
