By the Associated Press i ST. PAUL, July 8—The Minnesota State Supreme Court in a 6-to-1 deci- sion yesterday upheld as constitutional the two-year emergency mortgage fore- | closure relief act passed by the 1933 | Legisiature. | Economic conditions justified the law, the court ruled, even though it runs counter to Article I of the Federal Con- | stitution. | At the same time the court held that | Gov. Floyd B. Olson had cxceeded his| powers in issuing a 90-day mortgage meratorium order, which expired last | May 1. but that the Legislature had validated his act by a curative law In upholding the mortgage foreclosure relief act, the court reversed two cases brought on appeal from lower courts in Minneapolis and St. Paul, which had ruled the law unconstitutional. The law upheld provides three reme- dies for the relief of owners of land sold on mortgage foreclosures. They are: The owner of the land may, by court order, stop foreclcsure by adver- tisement and compel the foreclosure to proceed under the protection of the court; the land owner may by court or- der secure extension of the time allowed by law for redemption to a date not| Jater than May 1, 1935. and s! be brought for deficiency judgments during the time allowed for redemptions. In a dissenting opinion, Associate Justice R. A. Stone said the law “open- ly violates the due process and equal protection of law guarantees of both Federal and State Constitutions.” VISITIN_G.

ND I wanted first of all a law- yer; I felt rather cold as I sud- denly recalled that in France there is no writ of habeas cor- pus. It is true that I was an American citizen, a fact clearly set forth in my passport, but this had not appeared to relieve the situation in the east. It didn't seem at all legal that they should simply throw me into jail and keep me there, but everything I had | ever heard about the remarkable free- dom of the French police in such mat- ters returned to my memory. and I be- gan to feel a degree of anxiety whicu, I was to discover, was quite justifiable. Night comes early in the Winter at Armene, and the rcom was quite dark, |and no one had appearcd to light n, and I was smoking my last cigaretic and wishing I had the pompous old commissaire by the beard when I heara footsteps and veices and a key turn in the lock. The cold, dark little room was flooded with light, and a visitor, a man, was ushered in to see me. I got to my fect and was blinking 1n the unexpected light as he insinuateu something that rattled gently into the hand of the man who had opened the door. Then my visitor turned, and I saw the man who had arrived at the hotel during the afternoon. He said briskiy “I'm sorry to see vou here. Mr. Sun- dean. My name is Lorn— d Lorn.” He paused and then added Viss Tally asked me to see you.” His words were neither promising nor exactly explanatory; still, things looked suddenly better. I was not. | after all, entirely without a friend. “Sit down?” He drew up the small straight chair, and I sat down on the cot. He put his hat on the floor. opened his coat. and drew out a folded paper. While his chin was no larger than it had been in the afternoon, I'm bound to admit thac the sight of his countenance was very welcome. He handed me the paper. and it was a note from Sue Tally. It was brief but nice. She had written: “Your being thrust into jail is ab- surd and intolerable. This is Mr. Lorn He knows the whole affair and thinks he can do something about it.” She had written hurriedly and, I | thought, agitatedly. and her signature | was a spirited S. Tally. “Miss Tally is very good” I said. 1 put_the note in my pocket. He cleared his {hroat and looked at eet. “She thinks you didn’t do this” “She's right.” I said with some heat. “In fact.” he went on rather cau | book at the Georgia home of President ' tiously, “after hearing her story of the Franklin D.
