UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN VOLUME XXXIV The Official Student Paper of the University of Kansas Court Draws Comment; A.P. To Recall Watson 'Nine Old Men' Surprise With Wagner Decision Court Plan Rebels See Death of Measure In Action Washington, April 12—(UP) Validation of the Wagner Labor Relations act by the supreme court today in decisions on five test cases, all of historical importance, called forth various comments from legislators and members of the administration. Many government officials doubted that any of the cases would be upheld. The court split 5-4 on all but one of the cases. It was unanimous in holding that the act applied to interstate commerce transportations served to broaden the constitution's interstate commerce clause. Leaders of the congressional rebellion against President Roosevelt's supreme court reorganization program held evidence of the national labor relations act today as the death blow to the plan. Although the administration supporters thought favorable decisions would have no effect on the drive to pass the court bill, opponents asserted they would help to swing those heretofore on the fence against the plan. Attorney General Homer S. Cummings commented curtly that "for more reasons than one the decision of today shows the wisdom and soundness of the President's plan." Other comment on the effect of the decision included: Senator or Harry Truman, D. Mo.; "It looks like the supreme court has reformed." Senator Royal S. Copeland, D. New York; "They blow the President's court plan out of water and they needed." Representative Roy Wood-ruff, R., Michigan, chairman of house of representatives conference: "The President's packing the court bubble is completely punctured." t.

I must say that your wire first took me by surprise, and then left me more or less 'up in the air'. "I only hope that I shall be able to live up to the burden of re- sponsibility which the award seems to believe the burden whose a weight is considerable. Par for the 36 holes at the coun- trial club is 144. In the qualify Outman and Finley were tied for low with a total of 152 each. Maxwell was third low with a score of 154 and Bussler the fourth man to make the final in the tournament, the alternate member qualified with a total of 157 for the 36 holes.
