TONEWDEALLAWS FACECOURTTES Supreme Tribunal Will Take Up Litigation. When It Reassembles. By the Associated Press. Litigation potentially involving the constitutionality of 10 New Deal laws awaits action by the Supreme Court when it reassembles October 5 after the Summer recess. ‘The major ones are the Wagner labor relations act, Government loans and grants for publicly-owned hydro- electric plants, the Frazier-Lemke farm m moratorium measure, the 1938 “truth in securities” law and th public utility holding company act. Already, the New Deal has won 2 controversies and lost 11 before the high tribunal. No final decisions are likely before November 9, six days after the presi- dential elections. Power Loans on Calendar. One of the cases to be argued at this time, or in November, involves the constitutionality of P. W. A. loans for publicly-owned hydro- electric projects. The court already has agreed to pass on the protest by the Duke Power Co. against a $2,852,000 Government loan and grant for a power plant at Buzzard Roost, 6. C. The Circuit Court of Appeals at Charlotte, N. C., sided with the Government. The Alabama Power Co. and the ‘Texas Utilities Co. also have chal- lenged the Government's authority under the national recovery act and the 1935 emergency appropriation re- * llef measure to furnish money to Plainviewan, Tex., and to seven Ala- bama municipalities for electric sys- tems. Their suit was dismissed by the Pederal District Court for the District of Columbia and they asked the Supreme Court to hear arguments along with the Duke case. Other New Deal Cases. Other New Deal cases the court has been asked to review involve: Wagner labor relations act estab- lishing a National Labor Relations Board and guaranteéing collective bar- gaining to workers. Frazier-Lemke act granting a three- year moratorium on farm mortgage foreclosures. The 1935 “truth in securities” act requiring that proposed issues of se- curities be registered with the Securi- ties and Exchange Commission for public inspection. Public utility company act. The Government wants the tribunal to hold up court action on disputes con- cerning this legislation until final de- cision of a test case it has brought in the Southern New York Federal District Court against the Electric Bond & Share Co. The 50 per cent tax imposed on sil- ver profits made prior to enactment of the silver purchase legislation, which was intended to make the Na- tion's monetary stock consist of one- fourth silver and three-fourths gold. The 1934 arms embargo act au- thorizing the President to forbid the sale of munitions to Bolivia and Para- guay for use in their Chaco War. The 1935 Ashurst-Sumners act for- bidding interstate transportation of goods made by convicts and requiring that such good be labeled as prison made. The 1934 amendments to the rail- way labor act authorizing collective tasgaining between representatives of r3lway employes and the carriers. ToteConie] SECOND-OFFENSE SPEEDING. Rol Tt C.

P. Photo. NEEDS OUTLINED FOR PLAYGROUND Grading and Conditioning on Sherwood Plot Held Necessary. Playground needs of many sections | of the city were outlined Friday eve- | ning at a meeting of the City-wide Playground Council in the District Building. The council, which was presided over by Dr. Edward E. Richardson, also heard a report of Summer ac- tivities from Miss Sibyl Baker, su- pervisor of playgrounds. Among the needs outlined by citi- zens, parent-teacher associations and playground councils was the grading and conditioning of land recently acquired for the Sherwood Playground at Ninth, Tenth and G streets north- east. The only prospect of improv- ing the land is in a works progress project, in the opinion of the council. A petition presented by William R. Clements, representing the citizens of Edgewood, uring that the tract of Lincoln road and Franklin street northeast be reserved for active play- grounds, was approved and tie coun- cil pledged its aid in getting favor- able action from the District Com- missioners. Other requests included: Construction of a fence and instal- lation of playground equipment at the Logan Playground, installation of gates at the McMillan Playground, opening of the Van Buren-Fairlawn Playground the entire year instead of during July and August only, and co-operation in a campaign for the construction of a swimming pool in the southwest section of the city. It was announced that the follow- ing school playgrounds will open for the Fall.season at the close of the school day on Monday, September 28: Bancroft, Banneker, Benning, Burrville, Cooke, Corcoran, Hayes, Janney, Eckington Recreation Cen- ter, Montgomery, Murch, Paul Junior, Shaw and Stevens. ALUMNI TO MEET Msgr. Joseph M. Corrigan, rector of Catholic University, will be guest speaker at a dinner of the Washington Chapter of the university alumni in the University Club, at 7 p.m., Wed- nesday.
