were popularly accepted as
autobiographical experiehces. Early

Adamson eight-hour law was held
unconstitutional here today by Judge
William S. Hook in United States district
court.
Judge Hook directed the receivers
of the Missouri, Oklahoma & Gulf railroad.
who brought the original action
in this case, to enjoin the law from
going into effect, to assist the government
in expediting the case to the supreme
court for tinal decision and to
invite the attorneys of every railroad |
in this country to participate in th^
hearings before the supreme court.
Tnis was requested in tne government's
motion to dismiss the injunction
petition of the railroad, the government
desiring to avoid "prolonged,
unnecessary and scattered litigation"
that would be made necessary by the
hearing of countless similar suits
filed by the railroads.
It is expected that the ultimate de- I
cision as to whether the law will go ;
into effect January 1 will be handed !
down before those suits come up for j
hearing. A transcript of tne present
case will be filed in the United States
supreme court before it reconvenes
December 4.

Counsel for the Pennsylvania,
York Central and Burlington roads are
conferring on the subject and it Is
said that they may seek to have the

event, other.suits already instituted
attaching the Adamson act may be

or tne department of justice, who will!
appear in the Santa Fe case.
