- COAL BILL ATTACK. OPENED BY CARTER ‘Attorney Outlines Basis for| Suit Challenging Con- stitutionality. By the Associated Press. Basis for the suit challenging con- | stitutionality of the Guffey coal act| was outlined today in the District Su- | preme Court. William D. Whitney, attorney for | James Walter Carter, president of the Carter Coal Co, told the court the| outline would be the foundation for his final argument next week, as he contended the shifis of tonnage from” one coal producing district to another, cited by the Government as the pri- | mary result of price fluctuations, do | not give Congress the power to regu- Jate the coal industry. Wage Fixing Hit. In addition, he said, Congress does ot have the power to fix prices as & regulatory measure, and even if it | did. such power could not be used | solely to sustain wages. S Cnngres had the pomer to fn wages,” Whitney continued, “it would not have that power without fixing a standard and could not delegate that | power to agreements between opera- | tors and miners to fix wages any way | they liked.” Under the Guffey act wages xnd‘ hours of mine workers are to be fixed through collective bargaining. Whitney said he would rest upon | those points and added “any one or‘ them upsets the act.” Shortly before the noon recess, Whlt- ney amended his original complaint to say such “enforced agreements” as the wage contracts between operators and miners “deprive the workers of their liberty.” | The attorney injected this amend- ment on the heels of testimony by Philip Murray, international vice ident of the United Mine Workers of America, that the district agreements provide penaltiss for miners who strike in violation of the contracts.
