[5HURTINBATTLE INLAUNDRY STRIKE Police Rout Pickets at Little Falls, N. J., Victims In- cluding Dozen Girls. By the Associated Press. LITTLE FALLS, N. J, June 2.— Fifteen persons were injured today in an extended clash between police and several hundred pickets at the Little Falls Laundry Co, with the pickets finally falling back before successive barrages of tear gas and flying police sticks. For nearly an hour the fight raged after the pickets had attempted to prevent workers from entering the laundry plant, which closed down twice recently because of a strike. Three women, cut when a stone smashed the windshield of their car, were taken to Paterson General Hos- pital, and the laundry company said a dozen girls were treated for in- Jjuries in the plant hospital. Wage-Hour (Continued From First Page.) Emphasizing that the present measure does not contain the “voluntary” fea- tures of N. R. A. code making, Jack- son declared he saw “no parallel with the N. R. A" Denies “Employers’ Whims.” “This is distinctly an effort to take into control of the Nation the stand- |ards of interstate commerce and not | to leave them to whims of any gronp of employers,” he added. Senator Black, Democrat, of Ala- bama, Democrat, of the legislation, ported the contention of the witness. | Armed with a carefully prepared ‘}nnalysls of the bill and legal prece- |dent,s on which its defense will be based, if necessary, Jackson disclosed that six differing judicial theories of commerce power are written into the present administration draft in hope of avoiding any sweeping invalidation of the legislation. Speaking optimistically of a flash of liberalism “that illuminates a judicial record otherwise pretty black for labor, we may reasonably hope that after being balked a score of years, Con- gress will now be sustained in adding to the list of interstate contraband what Mr. Justice Holmes so aptly | called ‘the product of ruined lives,’ and |in establishing commerce among the | State on the basis of industrial justice to disadvantaged men.” Jackson said. Jackson Only Witness. Jackson was the only witness today as Dr. Claudius T. Murchison., head of the Cotton Textile Institute, was forced to delay his appearance. Swinging into his detailed defense of Congress’ power to legislate on | working standards, Jackson quoted Chief Justice Hughes in the case of Kehtucky Whip Co. vs. Illinois Cen- tral, as follows: “The Congress in exercising the powers confided to it by the Con- stitution is as free as the States to recognize the fundamental interests of free labor.” “The power confided to Congress, [ which this bill proposes to exercise !nnd in exercising to recognize the interests of free labor, fundamental is the expressly given power to regu- late commerce among the several States,” Jackson continued. “The Supreme Court has upheld various types of regulation of inter- state commerce upon several distinct constitutional theories. The attempt is to consolidate in a single bill all | | hopeful approaches to constitution- ality, each complete in itself, so that If one or more falls at the hands of the court we will not be left for an interval while a new bill is be- ing adopted. The result is that there in some overlapping in its provisions, but no inconsistency in the opera- tion or its objectives. “Different commerce power which this bill ine vokes may be classified as follows: There is the power directly to regulate or prohibit movement across | States lines of goods deemed for any | reason to offend against sound na- tional policy. This power has been applied in many cases and denied in but one—the famous child labor case to be discussed later. This bill in- vokes that power to regulate and prohibit by directly forbidding trans- portation of the products of the labor of children under 16 years of age, which ought not to be accepted in any fair market, and products made under conditions where workers are denied the right of self-organization by fear of labor spies, and where their right to strike and to enforce collective bargaining is rendered in- effective by the use of professional strikebreakers. Such use of espionage and of professional strikebreakers is both a provocation of violence and an excuse for it, and offends against our national policy. “2. Congress has the power to regu- late competition in interstate com- merce. It has exercised this power without question since the adoption of the Sherman anti-trust act in 1890 and again through the Clayton act and the Federal Trade Commission act. “3. The power to regulate com- merce includes the power to eliminate labor conditions which lead to labor disputes which will directly burden or obstruct commerce. (National Labor Relations Board vs. Jones & Laugh- lin) This power is invoked in elimi- nating excessive hours, inedaquate pay and child labor in so far as they tend to provoke such labor disputes. “4. The power to regulate commerce is held to include the power to pro- hibit transportation of goods Into States in violation of the laws of such States and making interstate goods subject to such State laws. This doc- trine is supported by the decisions in- volving prison-made goods. “This bill invokes the constitutional power by prohibiting consignment of goods into a State if produced under conditions that would have been un- lawful within that State. Interstate Commerce Ruling. “5. The power to regulate commerce has been held to include power to elimnate a condition which affects the movement of goods, the price of goods or which causes undue price fluctuations in interstate commerce. —_— @dm' Hill 'Wao/u'nqfimémmw me’cerg b1 Y 5 and Representative Connery, | of Massachusetts, sponsors | immediately sup; | judicial theories of the | This doctrine is set forth in the cases relating to the regulations of stock- yards and grain exchanges. “This bill invokes this power by eliminating from interstate commerce goods produced by sub-standard labor conditions which affect interstate commerce in the manner stated. “6. The power to regulate interstate commerce has been held to include the power to regulate conduct in- tended to divert or substantially affect the movement of goods in interstate commerce. This is the doctrine of the Coronado Coal case. This bill invokes such power to regulate such sub-standard labor practices as are found to be the result of an intention to divert the movement of goods in Interstate commerce. “It will be observed that these theories of the interstate commerce power, as laid down by the court, are complicated and overlapping and that some could be directly and automati= cally applied while others could be applied only where circumstances were found to warrant. It was, there- fore, inevitable that any bill which tried to use these available weapons to fortify itself against the constitu- tional attack which labor and com- merce legislation always faces, should to a considerable extent sacrifice sim- plicity. For neither the subject mat- ter of the bill nor the legal theories underlying it can with practical safety be reduced to any one simple formula. But the bill is believed not to be con- flicting within itseif or self-defeating.” Powers of National Board. In an effort to justify the proposed wide discretionary powers tested in the Labor Standards Board, Jackson cited the “geographical and industrial diversities” mentioned by President Roosevelt in his message preceding introduction of the bill. “This bill does not plunge the Na- tion headlong into a rigid and wide- hours,” Jackson continued. “It per- mits the building up a body of experi- erly to administer is acquired.” Turning to the child labor pro- vision, Jackson said: “A commerce clause broad enough to protect the children of the rich from kidnaping would seem not to be abused if it should also protect the children of the poor from exploita- tion.” With biting sarcasm, the young Assistant Attorney General next at- tacked the existing barrier to regula- tion of child labor. “The power of Congress to enact the bill is clear,” he said, “under the decisions, both old and recent, except for the denial by the Supreme Court in the child labor case of the most simple and clear of all these the- oriesissiie e “Perversion of Constitution.” “We owe it to our times to chal- tion injected into our law by the child | labor decision. This bill would chal- lenge it. We should give the courts a chance to remove this blemish from our judicial history.” Then referring to wage case, he said | “In face of the willingness of the Supreme Court to decline to let obso- lete precedent limit the exercise of its own reason, Congress may with pro- priety decline to let such decisions stall legislative reason. Had not the legis- lators persisted in assailing the mini- mum wage cases, their inaction and acquiescence would have prevented the court from amending its doctrine. the minimum labor decision will enable the court, even if it so minded. to correct the old decision, now without support in scholarship, reason or enlightened public sentiment.” rights, | eral Government. Closing presentation of his prepared | statement, Jackson reminded the com- | mittee that “there is nothing whatever ’xn the Constitution that forbids Con- Rress to make a delegation of its power. The prohibition is purely judge-made, mnot Constitution-made.” SINC /Y FLOWERS nurnurcmciz ’5 N0.7000 {| Milburn T. ZIRKLE Co. FUNERAL DIRECTORS | Amoulance Service [| 510 C 5t. NE.

Meets Decline on Curb. B3 the Associated Press. NEW YORK, June 2.—The Great Atlantic & Pacific Tea Co. an- nounced yesterday it would repurchase from employes during the next 60 days holdings of non-voting common stock acquired under the last employes’ stock subscription plan at $90 a share. Employes subscribed for the stock at this price in June, 1928. Closing price on the curb exchange for the shares was $86 yesterday. John A. Hartford, president, in making the offer to employes de- clared: “The company makes no rec- ommendation in this matter, as it is felt that this is a problem for each in- dividual to solve. But please be as- sured that if you decide to sell, the sale of your stock will in no way affect your position or standing with the company.” An official of the company stated the offer was being made “to protect the employes” as a result of the recent weakness in the stock. 80 STORES CLOSED IN PROTEST. Chain Store Tax Measure Hit by Offi- cials of Company. PHILADELPHIA, June 2 (#).—The Great Atlantic & Pacific Tea Co. has closed 80 stores and the American Stores Co. about 50 in the Philadelphia area in & protest against passage of a chain store tax bill now in the Legis- lature. ‘The stores were closed Saturday and were not reopened yesterday. American Stores officials announced they have been closing their stores at the rate of about 10 a week and have closed 70 throughout the State in an- ticipation of the passage of the bill. ‘The bill would place a $500 tax on each store. Its provisions are retro- active, requiring the payment of the tax on all chain stores in operation June 1, The A. & P. announced its 412 H St. N.E. What About Price? Funerals cannot be sold in exactly the same manner as merchandise, since the chief item is the service. The family alone names the price, based entirely upon what they wish to pay, what type of service and merchandise they desire. However, we give positive assurance that when the family desires, we are equipped to furnish funerals as low in price as any establishment which advertises price. tant, though, our service is superior in every detail.
