With important New Deal cases scheduled for argument before the Supreme Court in the next fortnight, it developed yesterday that a pro- tracted illness was keeping Associate Justice Harlan Stone off the bench, with a possible effect upon the out- come of the cases in question. Court attaches said that unless his illness is unexpectedly prolonged, he could participate in the decisions. | With the court closely divided on ape parently fundamental issues affecting | New Deal legislation, his absence might be decisive. | Mrs. Stone issued a statement yes- terday saying the justice's “convales- cence necessarily will be of some dura- tion,” leading to an expectation that he would not be present for the argu- ments of the next two weeks. For him to participate in the ensuing decisions | would require the consent of counsel for both sides. This consent, it was said, however, is generally given as a matter of course.

Mrs. Stone's statement was issued as the eight other justices assembled about a conference table to prepare for delivering a maximum of 27 opin- ions on Monday and hearing argu- ments for the first time this term on |a New Deal dispute. “Mr. Justice Stone,” the statement | said, “has had an attack of bacillary | dysentery of the flexner type. He is now greatly improved, but hic con- valescence necessarily will be of some duration.” | No intimation was given as to the probable duration of the illness. It | was sald that was impossible to tell | now. Justice Sutherland’s Absence. Court attaches pointed out that As- | sociate Justice Sutherland was absent | last March 10 during arguments on | an appeal brought by J. Edward Jones, | New York securities dealer, who chal- lenged the constitutionality of the 1933 “truth in securities” act requir- ing registration in advance of public sale. - Not only did Sutherland participate in the decision but he wrote the ma- Jority opinion holding that the Se- curities Commission could not compel Jones to testify concerning a pro- posed issue of securities which had been withdrawn before the registra- tion became effective. The 6-to-3 de- cision did not pass on the validity of the act. The New Deal cases about to be argued involve: The Government’s ef- fort to postpone action by lower courts on cases challenging the con- stitutionality of the public utility holding company act; the validity of P. W. A. loans for. publicly owned hydro-electric plants; a 50 per cent tax on silver speculation profits n.ade before the silver purchase act be- came eflective; the embargo on arms shipments to Bolivia and Paraguay for the Chaco War, and the Ashurst- Sumners measure to require labeling of prison-made goods. Chest (Continued Prom First Page.) less fortunate fellow citizens by sup- porting the 65 welfare agencies afe filiated with the Chest. “The Community Chest has proved its right to a place in Washington. It has demonstrated that the Chest method of raising funds for private welfare work is the best yet discovered. It has proved a powerful influence in uniting all races, creeds and colors in a real community spirit. It has exe- cuted our “Good Neighbor” impulses for us in an efficient, economical man- ner. “Because of all these accomplish- ments, and, because the goal of $1,969,000 is urgently needed to meet adequately the human needs of Wash- ington as represented by these agen= cles, we urge every citizen of Washing- ton during this campaign to support the Chest by work and contribution, to the utmost extent.” Churches Plan Appeals. Churches will observe Community Chest Sunday today. Throughout the city, according to advices received at Chest headquarters, pastors are bring- ing the Chest to the attention of their congregations. Archbishop Michael J. Curley of the Diocese of Baltimore has sent an en- cyclical letter to all Roman Catho- lic clergy of this city. It will be read at every mass at today's serv- ices and in many instances will be supplemented by a personal appeal from the officiating priest. Through co-operation of the District Federation of Churches, Protestant pastors of the city plan to devote all or part of one service to the Community Chest. In a few instances, lay speakers from the Chest speakers’ unit will speak. Jewish rabbis made their appeal at services last week. Col. West A. Hamilton, chairman of the Capital unit, has arranged for a large number of colored preachers to take up the subject tod: The new slogan “Be a ‘C’' Man” is aimed by the Chest at the four pub- lic enemies—“hunger, disease, crime and despair.” These enemies, it is, pointed out by & Chest official, travel together and “menace not only the helpless and needy, on whom their at- tack is first launched, but the whole of Washington, which easily can be affected from the strongholds of these public enemies in the slum sections.” They can be “arrested,” it was said, only by the enlistment of a suffi- clent number of “C” men and women, who attain this letter by giving to the Chest. The new styled button this year carries the insignia “C Man.” Several Units Forming. Among the special units now get- ting under way is the Group Solici- tation unit, which will begin active solicitation tomorrow afternoon fol- lowing . & get-together luncheon at the Willard Hotel. This organization solicits Chest contributions from all firms employing 15 or more persons. Marcy L. Sperry, president of. the Washington Gas Light Co., who heads this unit, will preside at tomorrow’s luncheon, at 12:30 in the large ball room of the Willard Hotel. Ross Garrett, director of the Central Ad- mitting Bureau for Hospitals, will be the principal speaker. Garrett will tell of the MBI‘ sick’ and injured THE SUNDAY STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C, persons accomplished in the nine ommunity Chest hospitals and clin- ies supported by the Chest. Failure to meet part of the just charges of the hospitals is assigned as one reason for increasing this year’s Chest goal to $1,969,000. An addi- tional $90,000, it is estimated, will be necessary to pay for proper care of the sick and injured in these hos- pitals next year. Tomorrow’s luncheon is a distinct departure from the usual group solic- itation dinner. Both Chairman Sperry and Vice Chairman John L. Vandergrift believe that a luncheon meeting will attract a much larger number of people who can give up this time at noon, but could not at- tend night meetings. The Special Assignments Unit also meets tomor- row at the Willard for a luncheon re- rt. w’rhe Metropolitan Unit, of which Karl Corby is chairman, will hold its organization meeting Tuesday night at the Willard Hotel.
