THURSbiAV, JANUARY 16. 1936 7 Washington, Jan. 13. — Prom any point of view, the rrtost important happening in Washington ainie the' Roosevelt adminfstration ^took office, is the decision by the supreme court that thp crop control features of.the agricltural administration act, both in the original law and the amendments pa.ssed la.st summer, are unconstitu tional. The federal government, the high | court held "in its .six-to-three decision,! has no power to regulate agriculture, i That is one of the rights never dele-1 gated to the congress, a'nd therefore i specifically leserved to' the states^ byJ the 10th amendment. * ! It was a far more sweeping decis-j ion than most Washington observers liad expected. The aftfninistratkm~was prepaied for a ruling that, the pro- ,cessing taxeS and their distrioution in benefit payments to farmers for crop reduction ■were not constituti >n- al. indeed, the main purpo.se .if the amendments of 1935 was to get around such a possible verdict by the eupreme court. Sweeping Decision j After declaring that the processing taxes and their distribution in bene fit payments were beyond the^ power of congress, because they were not applied to the “geneial welfare” but to a ‘‘limite<l class,” and that congress had improperly delegate<L-to the ex ecutive the appropria'tion of public lands, the decision, read by Justice Roberts, went farther still. The heart of the matter, he pointed out, lay in the purpose of the AAA, and that purpose, the regulation of agriculture, is clearly uncon.stitulional, becau.se it is an attemjit on the jiart of the fed- eral government to exei-cise rights re served to the slates. .Justices_Kran- deis, {’ardwzo and Stone dis.sented from the majority ojiinion. The case liefore tht> supreme court was that of the Hoosac mills, in pro- l<;st against the jirocessing tax on cotton. Hut so broad was the court’s decision that it is regardeil heix' as applying to the Hankheafl cotton con trol act, the potato control amend ment, a.s well as to the wheat, corn- -—hog, tobacco and other fedora! ef forts to control agrciultural produc tion. The decision prohibits any -at/ tempt to enforce any part of the A^ A pf?5gram. " . Processors need not ji^y any^more processing taxes; the farmers cannot receive any more benefit' p^ment^i. It is doubtful that those who have paid the procp.ssing taxes can recov’or them f)X)m the government, or that the gov ernment can collect back from farm ers benefit payni^nls already made. War.
