Greenville, Aug. 12.—Federal Judge
H. H. Watkin.s, of Anderson, again
challenged the. constitutionality for the
proposed Buz^rd Roost i>ower pro
ject in Greenwooil county in a second-
opinion filed today in United State#
dstrict court here.
In the opinion, he .said he would file
an order enjoining Greenwood county
and the public works iWministration
from proceeding with the $3,.000jj^000
project. r
Judge Watkins affirmed the major
<lecisionyin an opinion filed last April
ta offer some help to the cotton- tex
tile industry.
Meanwhile, representatives who
have championed the cau.se of the cot
ton mins at the Capitol were far from
optimi.stic as to the. committee’s re-
port. '
“I think it is safe ^o say that the
textile people won’t like it,” comment
ed Representative Charles L. Gifford,
Republican, of Massachusetts. He said,
^ith other New England representa
tives, It is believed, the secretaries
would recommend neither elimination
of the processing, tax, championed by
Secretary Wallace, nor raising of tar
