 Since the inception of the Corps. 8l46 assignments have been filled for a total of 32044 working hours Eighty civic organizations have re- caiveo aid through the activity of their members in the Corps who have turned over their earnings to charity.

Supreme Court Rules
Mann Act Applies
Within District
Cose of Carmen Beech
Is Returned to Appeals
Tribunal for Restudy

The Supreme Court ruled to-
day that the Mann Act prohibits
the transportation of women for
immoral purposes wholly within
the District of Columbia, and
said that the Court of Appeals
was wrong in ruling to the con-
trary.
The decision was rendered in the
case of Carmen Beach, former dress
shop proprietor who was sentenced
to from one to three years in prison
and fined $500 in District Court
here for paying the taxicab fare
of prostitute who travelled a few
blocks to Washington hotel to
ply her trade.
Case Sent Back.
While reversing the Court of Ap-
peals which had set aside the con-
viction, the court ordered the case
sent back to the appellate tribunal
for further proceedings, pointing out
that the lower court had consid-
cred simply the applicability of the
Mann Act to the offense and had
not passed on other grounds for
reversal urged by the defendant.
The lower court now must rule on
these other issues.
Six members of the court Joined in
the brief per curiam opinion dispos-
ing of the case. They summed up:
Congress, in enacting the Mann
Act, made it perfectly plain by its
committee reports on the proposed
legislation that it was intended to
apply to transportation taking place
wholly within the District of
Columbia"
Murphy and Black Dissent.
In a dissent, in which he was
joined by Justice Black, Justice
Murphy said the Mann Act was
intended only to apply to white
slavery, and in this instance the
majority was giving the law a 'tor-
tured and grotesque application"

Nekrashi Pasha, former Egyptian
foreign minister, today undertook
at King Farouk's request the task
of forming a new cabinet as authori-
ties continued their investigation
into the assassination of Premier
Ahmed Maher Pasha.
More than so persons were ar
rested yesterday by police investiga-
tors, including two who were said
to have been standing near the spot
where the premier was shot down in
the Chamber of Deputies Saturday
after reading a decree by the King
declaring war on the Axis.
The majority of the arrests, how
ever, were merely precautionary,
police said. The actual assassin was
identified as a 26-year-old Egyptian
lawyer who was interned early in
the war for alleged pro-German
activities.
