Court Draws Comment; A.P. To Recall Watson
'Nine Old Men' Surprise With Wagner Decision
NUMBER 131
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 varied comments from legislators and members of the administration.
Court Plan Rebels See Death of Measure In Action
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 transportation services served broaden the constitution's interstate commerce clause.
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."
Leaders of the congressional rebellion against President Roosevelt's supreme court reorganization program held validation of the national labor relations act today as the death blow to the plan.
Other comment on the effect of the decision included: Senator 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 demonstrate it is quite un-needed." Representative Roy Woods: "I have a house of representatives conference; 'The President's packing the court bubble is completely punctured.'"

LINDLEY RECEIVES LETTER FROM 1936 HONOR STUDEN
Sol Lindenbaum, recipient of the Honor Award of 1936, wrote Chancellor E. H. Lindley a letter of appreciation for the honor, responding to the Chancellor's telegram. Following is the letter:
"I have just received your telephone and wish to express the deepest appreciation to you and the committee for conferring on me the Honor Award for 1936. 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 responsibility which the award seems to demand, and the burden whose weight is considerable.
"Writing, I am afraid, affords an inadequate method of conveying more than formalities, consequently I look forward to being able to talk to you personally at greater length in the near future."

Sobbing Saxophones Survive Smash to Swing In Sync copated Session
A crushed bass fiddle, caved in saxophones, and badly dent trumpets failed to stop Louie Kuhn and his boys, who evidently believe that the show must go on, from playing in Ableton in Abbela last Saturday night.
While going down highway 40 west of Topka Saturday evening they were forced from the slab by a car driving onto the highway from a side road. In toaking to the ditch to avoid hitting the car, the boys flattened a couple of road markers and overturned the trailer containing their instruments, scattering them all over a farmer's front yard.
Fortunately the trailer tires remained intact. The boys roped what remained of the instruments on the box bottom in a bulky splintered trailer

"Such speed must go!" says George the Cop, who directs trifle atop the mount. "You will have to slow up going down the Hill, and slow down going up the Hill; or you can walk alone liable to fine or incarceration."
Student drivers who sleep until 8:20 with early morning classes and feed until 1:25 with early afternoon classes were given the alternative today of driving slow, being late to class, and spreading it to the professor; or driving fast, missing class altogether and telline it to the judge.
Then George's grimly set jaw relaxed and his features resumed their usual benignity. "Of course you can hardly blame the little rascals for dashing about like that. They're simply full of ioie de viveur." *Leans*
