CLOSE.... »ens «0:12%c /e L R S p——. o Washington Lowdown o —o— — Rodney Dutcher The Oil Case Why It Was Lost |s Court Rebuke ganner-Herald Washington Correspondent.” \\'ASHL\'(}TON.—-H you never happened 1o think how compkate- Jy you're governed by lawyers, this seems like a good time. The President, who proposes the New Deal laws, is an ex-lawyer. Congress, Wwhich mulls over and passes them, is made up chiefly of Jawyers. A host of lawyers in the jederal agencies helps prepare and administer legislation and then defends it in the__(:ourts. \iost of the aaministrators are lawyers — Richberg, Ickes, Hull, and so on. Finally, the laws are approved oOr tossed out by nine ex-lawyers known as the Supreme Court. That last group of lawyers has just expressed an angry peeve against the rest of the gang and served notice that both the laws .nd the cases before the court must be properly prepared. One result of its blast is likely {0 be a shakeup in the solicitor general's office at the Department of Justice. This interpretation of the court's rejection of Section 9C of NIRA~ in the oil case, first bhig test of New Deal legislation—is the one [ get after distilling 4 couple of days interviewing of many of those other lawyers. When the news first came, some of the boys felt as if they had Leen. out skating and somebody had suddenly stolen the ice. But after a great yell from all around town for copies of the decision, met in some cases by quick photo stating, study began to show the decision to be based on absence of 2 mere few words regarding limiting standards for the Presi dent's power to bar “hot o0il"— which Justice Cardozo felt might be considered as implied without need of actual expression. There was no denial of congres sional power to delegate ‘the right to stop “hot oil” or anything else, assuming the delegated power were properly hedged. No one is in position to predict further Supreme Court NRA and AAA decisions, but the oil decision seemed to threaten no danger to codes unless similar mistakes are made. Everybody had known the oil case was a weak one, though whether most blame should attach to the Justice Department for dragging it to the court or to the Petroleum Board for insisting on fighting it through is still being debated. The forcement section of the oil code had been inadvertently omitted at one time, which threw the code out from consideration in this case and left only the presi dential regulations. Lawyers most intimate with the court and its members insist that the court—always. a stickler for ood presentation, itk own dignity, and good legal work, as well as faultless legislation—was simply good and sore and intent on de livering a rebuke. Sﬂcmaries to justices have com- Plained they were getting govern ment briefs so unsatisfactory that, \l’horea.v. they had usually relied on such briefs for source material, their bosses had made them go back to original sourcés and vir tually compile new briefs for guid ance, S Justices have been “leaking” Vord to the White House for some fime that they felt insulted by i’m“‘th‘: the DA'J. p_resemations, E m"lrmjs‘t satisfaction they got (;‘_ngr;l l] dsfumnce that Solicitor not b; in‘ni ;.( P Biggs worta ture im f( ted on them in any fu- S portant cases. léxs;ltt}](?l?gq?ttof'ney General Har st 18\\'\'91: hin t‘}:{sl_)(:onsidered the N it T eth .

P.S.T. (4:31 p. m. E . S.T.) 18 hours and 16 minutes out of Honolulu, 2,408 miles across the ocean. ' Not satisfied with two aerial trips across the Atlantic, one of them also a solo hop, and a long list of other honors already to her credit, the famous 36-year-old avi- atrix challenged the Pacific as no other person, man or woman, ever has, and won neatly but not with out a battle. Swoops Down Quickly So quickly was her swoop down on the airport that watchers did not recognize her swift red plane ot fiat. g’ When the crowd realized she had arrived at last, after more than three hours of anxious waiting and confusion over her whereabouts, it set up a mighty cnieer and surged onto the field. The cockpit popped open and Miss Earhart met the oncoming hundreds with a smiling face. The feminine instinct asserted itself in the geath daring aviatrix »nd she pullid a comb out of her heavy fur flying suit and fixcd wup her tousled, blonde locks, Wastes No Time She didn't waste a foct of dis-~ tance or a second of time.
