Early, the president's secretary, was at pains to inform the press the Nebraskan had been receired as the result ot a re Quest from Garner, Ia support ot his contention that: ' the controversy oyer the court bill had brought a sew trend In supreme court decisions, Mr., Roosevelt's spokesman cited three decisions announced by the high tribunal since February 5, when the court bill was proposed. Social Security Decision Is Cited The. decisions on the social se curity act, he said, reversed a nar row . conception of the federal spending power enunciated in the prior decision invalidating the agricultural adjustment act. The decision upholding the Wagner labor relations act,- he added; reversed last year's deci sion on the Guffey coal act and greatly broadened the power of congress In the field of commerce. Lastly, he cited the decision np holding the Washington mini mum (wage law as reversing the decision of a year ago on a simi lar New York law and entailing a new conception ot the due pro cess clause as applied to the states. The spokesman said that du ring the Coo lid ge and Hoover ad ministrations, the court began a series of decisions "which were more legislative than Judicial." . "Something had to be" done," he added, "and the result was the message to congress (propos ing the president's court bill). And It's rather interesting that a large part of that objective has been obained temporarily I say temporarily and I hope perma nently." Citing, then, the cases enumer ated, he said , "the net result Is that we have obtained certain ob jectives, talking' largely," but "the country still wants Insurance pt the continuity of that objec tive and- a better mechanism for the administration of maximum . justice in a minimum of time." He added: "There has been another great gain in that the country is not only court conscious but constitution-minded, which is a tre mendous factor, and understands that - the constitution is not in tended to block social and : eco nomic reforms through court leg islation." - Lodge Task to Resume PORTLAND, July 23-V worc on the timberllne lodge and -Mud lake projects on Mount 'Hood, halted Thursday noon by a 4elar In the arrival of funds from ..Washington, D.
