Washington, March 12.—The Su
preme Court of the United States is
once more the center of interest
here, because of the highly import
ant cases which are either .now be
fore it or on their swift way to it.
Upon the Supreme Court's decisions
will depend the fate of NRA and of
so many of its provisions, as well as
some of the other things which the
Administration has undertaken, that
there is a decided tendency both in
Congress and in the Executive
branch of the Federal Government
to mark time until the Court has
acted. A large part of Mr. Roose
velt's New Deal is, in effect, on trial.
The case which the- Supreme
Court now has under consideration
is that of a southern lumber com
pany which refused to recognize
NRA or any part of it, and set up
as its defense that the National In
dustrial Recovery Act was uncon
stitutional. The Federal District
Court held that the lumber company
was right, and the Government
appealed.
A decision in this case is expected
in the course of a few weeks. It
may or it may not settle all of the
questions which are raised in the
three other important cases which
have been decided against the Gov
ernment in the past couple of weeks,
by lower Federal courts.
Three Other Cases
One of those is the Kentucky
coal-mine case, in which the mine
owners denied the right of the Fed
eral Government to regulate the
wage scale or the hours of labor.
The district court ruled in favor of
the mine-owners.
Another is the decision in the
Weirton Steel Company case that
the Government has no power to
regulate manufacturing, under the
interstate commerce clause of the
Constitution. The Administration's
contention is that anything which is
manufactured comes under Federal
jurisdiction if it is to be sold across
state lines. The district court
ruled that "commerce" does not in
clude manufacturing; it also ruled
that the famous "7a" section of
NRA, the collective bargaining:
clause had not been violated by the
establishment of a company union
in the Weirton steel plant.
The third case which is being ap
pealed by the Government is of
even broader scope. It is the ruling
of Judge Grubb in the Federal Dis
trict Court of Alabama that the
Tennessee Valley Authority, nor
any other arm of the Federal Gov
ernment, has no right to compete
with private business. The TVA
has been busy making contracts to
sell power from the Government
dams on the Tennessee River, in
several states. Judge Grubb ruled
that it had no right to build dams
except to improve navigation, and
could generate power only as an in
cident to that right. This ruling,
if upheld by the Supreme Court,
would put an end to President
Roosevelt's "yardstick" plan, of
making the cost of power generated

Washington Surmises
Lawyers here who usually guess
pretty closely how the Supreme
Court will decide think that its de
cisions in these cases will put a
pretty tight curb on NRA and
TVA. There is a decidedly jittery
feeling apparent in Administration
circles, especially among the ardent
young reformers who have had a
hand ii} shaping these projects and
"selling" them to the nation.
Some of the young men are com
plaining bitterly that the President
•has let them down, by not putting
all of his influence behind their en
tire program.
The fact seems to be that Mr.
Roosevelt is trying to consolidate
his position for the Presidenital
election of 1936, and to regain some
of the ground he lost by reason of
giving the social reformers and
radicals too much leeway. He is
much more concerned with econo
mic recovery than with social re
form, just now; for it is becoming
increasingly clear that it is to the
conservatives and the liberal-con
servatives that he must look for his
main support in 1936.
Talk of Radical Bloc
The radical elements in Congress
are also trying to consolidate their
position. There is talk about a
"radical bloc," but that doesn't
mean much, as there are so many
types of radicals, no two of whom
seem to agree on more than one or
two things. The feeling grows
here, however, that a third party is
certain, with support from elements
represented by such men outside of
Congress as Upton Sinclair and
Father Coughlin and in Congress
by Senators Huey Long and Burton
Wheeler, of Montana.
Meantime legislation is in a state
of chaos. Perhaps by the time this
is printed some compromise be
tween Congress and the President
on the Work Relief program may
be announced, but as this is written
there is a deadlock over this im
portant measure. The Social Se
curity bill is all shot to pieces. The
most likely outcome is that an Old
Age Pension measure will be
adopted in which the Federal Gov
ernment will match any state 50-50
in providing such pensions, leaving
it up to each state to take the ini
tiative. The * Unemployment In
surance feature of the bill does not
now seem to have a chance of pas
sage this session.
Looking: Ahead
Donald Richberg's assurance the
other day that there would be no
monetary inflation at least for six
years, so long as Mr. Roosevelt is
President, indicates the confidence
felt that he will be reelected, what
ever happens. That is a good five
to-one bet in the present tangled
state of Republican politics. And the
President may surprise everybody
any day by "going to the country"
with one of his persuasive broad
casts thus putting pressure on Con
gress from behind and reviving pop
ular enthusiasm for his program.
The fact remains, however, that
Mr. Roosevelt is at the moment a
rather tired and slightly worried
man, and needs a long vacation.
