WAJHMQ&S Washington, May 11. As things look now to experienced find impartial observers, there does not seem to be a chance for the enactment of the President's plan of adding six justices to the Supreme Court. There is a bare chance that Congress might agree to a compromise proposal, to in crease the Court by two, to a to tal of eleven, but even that is not to the taste of the opponents of the whole program inside the President's own party. The in clination now is to delay action on the whole Court proposal until after the Supreme Court has ruled upon the constitutionality of the Social Security Act. That law has been brought to the Supreme Court by an appeal by the Gov ernment from the ruling of the Federal Circuit Court of Boston, which declared the Act unconsti tutional. The expectation is that the Court will hear arguments this month and had down its de cision late in June. If it upholds the Social Security Act, political wiseacres say that will definitely kill Congressional support of the Court-enlargement scheme. If the decision is against the Social Se curity Act, then the compromise plan for two additional judges has a chance, although that will be fought bitterly, on principle, by powerful leaders on the Demo cratic side, Roosevelt Still Popular Much of the silence of many members of Congress, particular- NOTICE OF SALE OF LAND Whereas, on the 19th day of April, 1935, W.

This 20th day of April, 1937. F. T. LLEWELLYN, Clerk of Superior Court of 5-iSp Surry County. ly In the House, Is due to the be lief that the President is person ally much more popular with the public than he is ever with tlic majority of his own party on Cap itol Hill. Something like a wave of antagonism to the Administra tion is growing rapidly in both wings of the Capitol, and there is a strong inclination becoming manifest to give the President no more grants of personal power and perhaps to withdraw some of the powers which the last two Congresses gave him. It seems certain that many of the Admin istration's proposals will suffer defeat, and that Congress will do its own bill-drafting on major matters from now on, instead of accepting whatever the White House proposes. That seems likely to be partic ularly true of the whole plan of tax revision. Everybody recogniz es that the present tax system is a jumble in which unworkable and oppressive elements are min gled. Roswell Magill, the new Un dersecretary of the Treasury, has come out with a proposal to re write and recast the whole system of corporation taxes on a more equitable basis. 'To do that will take time and plenty of study. Congress is not inclined to rush any more tax bills through in a hurry. Therefore the tentative program now is to enact no new tax laws this session, but to ex tend for another year the excise taxes which expire by limitation this Summer, and in the mean time set committees to work em ploying experts and holding hear ings as the basis for a broad and comprehensive new tax program to be put through at the next ses sion. Economy Measures Favored Congress is serious about econ omy. There is growing strength behind the proposal of a horizon tal cut of 10 percent in all de partmental estimates. The alter native plan proposed by the Ad ministration's supporters and said to have originated at the White House, to give the President au thority to "impound" 15 percent of all appropriations and appor tion savings and reductions among Federal departments and bureaus as he sees fit, has met such a cool reception that it is not regarded as having a chance. Op position to it is upon the same ground that most of the rest of the Congressional opposition to the Administration is based. That is the feeling that while personal authority and discrimination granted to the Executive by pre vious Congresses was all right at the time in view of the economic emergency, it would create a dan gerous precedent to continue that practice of delegating authority now that the emergency has passed. That feeling does not Arise from any personal distrust of Mr. Roosevelt. No one thinks that he has any inclination to abuse the tremendous powers which he has been given. But there is much distrust of the mo tives of some of the President's advisers. Partly because of that growing sentiment and partly because of a real urge for economy, it seems likely that several measures fa vored by the Administration will fall by the wayside. These include the Wagner Housing Bill, the plan to set up regional "TVA" pro jects around seven or eight of the Federal power developments, Fed eral aid for schools, and all of the Department of Agriculture's pro posals, such as a new form of AAA, the farm tenancy relief proposal and crop insurance. There is an evident though large ly under cover revulsion in Con gress against farm relief projects as a class. The feeling seems to be that more has already been done for farmers than for any other class and that it is about time now that the economic sit uation is back on an even keel, to slow down on legislation in the interest of particular classes. For the same reason, it begins to look doubtful whether any new Labor legislation will be enacted this session, though much study will be given to the Wagner Act with the idea of developing from it a broader and better-balanced La bor policy. At the same time, the Repub licans are beginning to come out of their tent and show signs of political activity. The expectation here is that there will be more talking for political effect from the Republican side than there has been so far this year. All sorts of talk sbout Republican and "Right Wing" Democrats forming combinations to defeat the New Deal is going around, but most of it can be dismissed as "wishful thinking." However, the decision of the Missouri Repub lican organization to get behind Senator Bennet Champ Clark for renomination at the Democratic primaries for 1938 Is a straw which possibly indicates a wind blowing in the direction of a Conservative coalition.
