The longest session of Congress since 1922 has come to a close and a wide range of important legislation was enacted into law. In an effert to give a more thorough in- sight into the various measures adopted, The Empire is presenting a series of summaries of the major bills passed into law. | { | ) i THE AAA AMENDMENT ACT | Approved August 24, 1935 | Designed to bring the farm program within the limits of constitutionality and to add to its effective- ness in raising farm purchasing power to the level| set by Congress, the act makes no radical change| on the program, but includes many provisions for | strengthening and clarifying its operation. | Covers the question of constitutionality in three general provisions: (1) Seeks to plug every loop-| hole against the charge of undue delegation of pow- | be done and what cannot be done at every step of | the AAA program; (2) confines the program strictly to interstate and foreign commerce, as that term has been defined in decisions of the Supreme Court, in an effort to obviate any charge of invading theq field that belongs to the States and at the same| time makes provision for dovetailing Federal and| State agricultural programs; (3) ratifies and con-| firms all past AAA acts prior to the adoption of the | amendments carried in this new act, including ad-| justment contracts with farmers, taxes, benefit pay-! ments, marketing agreements and licenses to handlers of farm products. | Allows the institution of suits to recover pro—‘ cessing taxes, but only after a claim has been| presented to the Commissioner of Internal Revenue, with evidence that no part of the tax has been | passed on to the consumer or back to the producer.| Prohibits injunction suits to stop the collection of | a tax in order to prevent tying up the farm pro-| HAPPY ——BIRTHDAY The Empire extends congratula- tions and best wishes today, their| birthday anniversary, to the follow- ing: SEPTEMBER 24 Mrs. John Morrison F.

Allows the taxpayer to obtain redress, if en-| Tne Ladies' Altar Society of the mourn, for death has taken DeWolf Hopper, the man | who made “Casey at the Dbat” a vivid reality for millions. To thousands, especially of the present generation, only the lines of the famous baseball poem denote William DeWolf Hopper, but to those' of another day there is much to recall the great comedian, who starred in such old favorites as “Wang,” “Happyland,” “The Matinee Idol," “Pina-' fore,” “The Pirates of Penzance,” “The Mikado” and many others. Born in New York City in 1858, Hopper made his debut on the stage in “Our Boys” in 1879. Later he, was with Frohman’s Madison Square Company as Pittacus Green in “Hazel Kirke” and from then on his name topped scores of roles. Usually, his aud- tjon of raw cotton, or to increase the returns of | 5 iences called for “Casey at the Bat,” and the great actor obliged until he used to say he was so tired of striking Casey out he just couldn't do it any| more. But he did. Even with the advent of the radio, Casey lived through DeWolf Hopper, who went on the air with the verse he made famous. Successful on the stage but luckless in love was the fate of Hopper. Fiw, times he went to the altar only to be divorced. He married a sixth and last time in 1925 at the age of 67. His first wife was Ella Gardiner and the second Ida Mosher. It was the third the world remembers, Hopper, ore of the original Floradora girls. This romance went on the rocks in 1898 after the couple had been married five years, but both went on to greater stage success. Later the actor married Nella Reardon Bergen, Ella Furry and last Mrs. Lillian Glaser. The American stage loses one of its most color- ful figures and best actors in the passing of DeWolf Hopper, and “Casey at the Bat” will never be the same. A TIP FOR G. 0. P. It might be an aid to the Republican Executive Committee, when it meets in Washinton this week to decide on whether the New Deal has helped or hindered recovery, to look over the report of the Bank of America. | This report, carried by the Associated Press yes-| Edna Wallace | titled to it, after he has paid his tax by filing a| |claim refund. H Contains a new clause designed for the protection | of consumers, making it clear that no steps can be taken to maintain prices above what is termed | fair exchange value. Authorizes the “Ever-Normal Granary Plan,” a method for keeping supplies of non-perishable crops‘ stored on the farm as insurance against a short- age or violent price fluctuations. { Provides for control by quota of imported prod- ucts when they enter in such quantities as to threat- en the price structure of American-grown products. Allows the use of 30 per cent of receipts from import duties (about $92,000,000 this year) to sub-| sidize the export of farm products, with the excep- | producers on the part of the crop consumed in this| 'country. | Strengthens the marketing agreement method for producers of milk, fruits, vegetables, soy beans, pecans 'and walnuts, tobatco and naval stores. Licensing handlers as a means for enforcing marketing agree- ments is done away with. Instead, marketing agree- ments are to be enforced by administrative “orders,” but these cannot apply to apples or to fruits and |vegetables for canning, except olives and asparazus. | Authorizes a farm-adjustment program for potato | growers.

BREWSTER TO FLY HERE FRCM NORTH TO MEET GOVERNOR ¥ 55; mimg' “The stars incline | Horoscope but do not compel” WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 25. | Adverse planetary aspects are ac-| |tive today, although certain bene- fic influences are discerned by as- :trologers. This is a time for em- | ploying mental vision, for great disasters are to attend great suc- cesses in the modern scene. In the early hours the mind should be alert and the vision re- liable, but unless men use their brains expertly they will meet with | great misfortunes, Violence appears to attend labor demands under this configuration which presages strikes and other troubles. Cooperation is advised by | those who see into the future. In the evening women are well directed. They will often be the counselors of men, for they will{ foresea perils and reach conclusions by short-cut methods. Psychic gifts are to be discov- ered by many persons who will preach peace with the intense ear- nestness that comes from forekowl- | edge of what war will mean next| year. This is read as a happy wedding | date for those who plight troth| near the sunset hours. Many mar-| riages are forecast and young love will flourish as a green bay tree, es- pecially in the schools and univer- sities. ' What is called superstition wiil flourish, for there may be signs and wonders linking the seen and un- een worlds. Scothsayers will abound, but they should be avoided. Remarkable discoveries in field of medicine will be made kncwn and will be employed suc- cessfully. The public health is to improve and at the same time de- teriorate, for science will aid those who e prosperous and under- nourishment will desiroy the in- digent.

O. P.! Committee, whose business it will be to amass carh- paign fodder, can very well say the New Deal has hindered business in the West. It is doubly encour- aging when it is remembered that the depression started in the East and spread to the West. Like- wise, recovery started in the same place and stretched out across the nation to the Pacific slope. 'The West | has in the past twelve months been feeling the' impetus of recovery that started on the Atlantic seaboard, shortly after Roosevelt took office. The' Republican leaders themselves admit the agricultural situation in the Middle West is so improved under the present farm legislation that they are fearful of a split in their own ranks over what course to pursue relative to agriculture in the coming election. But, of course, the Republican high command is' not interested in these important facts of national | recovery, though it will find most of the people' are aware of them. THE PIONEERS PASS ON. ‘The pioneers pass on but their memory and works will live long in the North. At Anchorage, Mrs. Catherine Kennedy, widow of the late Dan Kennedy for whom Kennedy Street here was named, is summoned. Widely known here and throughout the Territory her death will be| mourned by many. In Tuscola, Ill, Calmer Barnes, who gained fame in the North for carrying gold seekers through the swirling waters of Whitehorse Rapids in the days of the rush, succumbs at 72. Gradually, those who had so much to do with making the North country fade from this life, but their deeds should be commemorated in some such a way as has been suggested by Eiler Hansen of the Pioneers’ Home—a monument to the pioneers erected at Sitka. After all Mussolini isn't asking much more from Ethiopia than her Emperor was about to lease to the Standard Oil. Of course, he isn't paying quite as much, wherein, perhaps, lies the catch to this war business. ‘When we read about a 20-year-old girl chasing a 53-year-old man with wife and family around ihe country, we can see a whale of a lot of truth in that old adage, “no fool like an old fool.” Autumn is here, says the calendar, but we had already looked at the top of Mt.

There have been repeated and lamentable and shocking air accidents to put the fear into our hearts. Many onlookers feel stunned and timorous. But flying goes on. ‘The picturesque “Pop” Dickinson reminds us that | it may be pursued in safety. He learned to fly at an age when, by all current notions, he should have been grounded for life. He kept at it, with sensible care but bravely, and he survived all its perils to| a ripe age. He was a gallant recommendation for his chosen avocation. Mark that up on the credit side.
