WASHINGTON, Oct. 19. TUB beat
Inside dope la that the supreme court
will aave the TVA, clip the AAA a
little and toss the BanShead. cotton
control act Into
the unconstitu
tional waste bas
ket. These expecta
tions are some
what contrary to
general public
Impressions now,
but they repre
sent the private
studied Judgment
of dispassionate
lawyers who are
intimate with the
1'AI L J1AL.LU.N throe big new
deal cases now pending before the
court.
Neither they nor anyone else (in
cluding the court at thla time) has
any substantial knowledge of what
the court will do. Arguments have
not even been heard. However, they
rarely add much except luvther legal
understanding, and the legal lines for
them have already been fixed. From
these lines the expert dope has been
gathered that, along about Christmas
time, the court will give the new deal
three presents, not all of which will
be welcome.
The decision la likely- to center
around the particular point whether
the government was within legal
bounds In virtually forcing the Ala
bama Power company to sell certain
transmission lines to the TVA. The
government has-for years been selling
surplus power on reclamation pro
Jecta. Boulder Dam la on the same
basis and the court has sustained
that act, although the question was
not as pointed as in this case. But
national defense Is supposed to fur
nish further legal strength for TVA
action. '
The court may step out on broad
property protection grounds, but rail
Judges doubt i It. They think the
court will say It makes little legal dif
ference whether the government sells
power at the switchboard (Boulder
Dam) or at the end of the transmis
sion line (TVA).
However It is equally probable that
the court will set some definite limi
tations as to how far the government
may go In the power business.
The farm act la different. The AAA
amendments were passed lince the.
lower court decision in the ;urrent
uw vniia rax.. That makes the
decision hard for dopesters to figure.
(Able Federal Judge Otl at Kansas
City already has ruled that the
amendments made the AAA legal.)
Two questlona are Involved: (a)
Whether congress unconstitutionally
delegated lta taxing power to the
president. Originally. It did. The
new amendments attempt to set up a
legal circumvention of the constitu
tional restriction, and probably do.
At least the expectation is rather
general that the amendment will
permit the court to save the process
ing tax system In a backhanded way.
(B) Lawyers are not as certain wheth
er the production of cotton Is an
Intra-state business and thus outside
federal regulation. The court haa held
always that manufacturing, etc., Is
local business and beyond the powor
of congress. However, the govern
ment haa about a, 50-50 ohance of
being upheld because production
agreements are voluntary. Also, there
are no flnee and Imprisonment Cor
minor violations, such as In MRA.
However, some legal limitations on
both points are expected to be aet by
the court.
Not as much can be said for the
Bankhead Act. It haa mandatory
features for limitation of production.
The court generally frown on these
as unconstitutional. Ex-offlclo Judges
do not believe It has a chance.
A crowd of new dealers debated
among' thenselves the other night the
. inn nf whether a man had a
better chance of getting ahead In the
new deal with the backing of Mrs.
Roosevelt or Postmaster General Far
ley. The double chairman-general
won. He would not have a year ago.
It seems that the revival of Interea;
lately In the 1930 elections has caused
wider Inside respect for Mr. Farley's
duties. This Is especially true among
th. great Idealist who. heretofore,
would not soil their hands by extend
ing them to a polltlclsn.
There are reports that Farley re
cently won a big inside victory for his
viewpoint In a discussion at the
White House. The rumor 1 that son
James Roosevelt or some other bud
ding young political leader was poach
ing on Farley's appointive preserves,
or. at least, that Mr. Farley's friends
thcugtft so. Farley Is suppled to
have taken the matter up to the top.

HKl.ENA, Mont., Oct. 10 (AP)
Eight shocks of moderate Intensity
Jolted quake-town Helena In rapid
succession early tonight and the city
council Immediately declared a "state
of emergency exists," placing the en
tire panic-stricken populace under
direct orders of civic authorities.
The renewed shocks struck more
sharn.lv than the dozens which pre
ceded them earlier todav ond whet
ted the fears of an already frlght
worn citizenship.
Although the city was "on edce"
and there was a bit of unrest.' mili
tary authorities had not been sum
moned. A telegram was dlsputchrd to
the national disaster representative
of the American Red Cross, asking
old at once.
At night fall 150 tremors had been
recorded since 9:47 p. m. last night
when the most violent of the week
long series of shocks rocked the city
and threw It Into panic.

giant broom, fashioned from federal
relief funds, began sweeping eartn-
quake debrla today from this pic
turesque state capital, even a the re
ceding tremors bared two deaths and
damage of million dollar proportions.
Physlciana said perhaps a hundred
persons were treated for cuta and
bruises with a dozen requiring hos
pital attention.
Only a handful of business struct
ures were rendered beyond repair, but
the cumulative total of cracked walla
and fallen brickwork led Oscar Baar
son, city engineer, to estimate prop
erty losses might run between 1,000,
000 and $2,000,000.
Baarson said about 150 homes
would be vacated temporarily for fur
ther inspection emphasizing that this
figure' likely would be greatly reduced
as examination prbfressed.
Earth ahocks, which began a week
ago and reached a climax last night,
vibrated less severely in tne down
town area as late as 11:58 o'clock
this morning (mountain- standard
time). The total of all the tremors,
major and minor, was computed by
the weather bureau aa approximating
195.
The quake, described by Dr. Charles
Rlchter of Pasadena. Cal., as i"the
fourth large shock felt In the United
Statea In the past two years," Jarred
points as far north a Canada and
Washington, dipping into Idaho and
Sheridan. Wyo and affecting a large
slice df western Montana.
All places of publlo gathering In
Helena were ordered closed until fur
ther notice.
P. J. Edmonds of Portland. Ore.,
regional representative for the FERA,
authorized the use of relief funds In
clearing the wreckage. F. H. Martin,
asked Edmonds that thla be done. He
was told to transfer such work relief
up to the limit of the Montana bud
get, transferring tho unemployed. If

Masonic officials said the city's
Shrine temple with It ornate Turk
ish spire may have been more se
verely damaged than It first appeared.
Historic and magnificent St. Hel
ena's cathedral suffered Irreparable
losses in fine Italian marble.
A few homes and buildings had
gaping wounda In their roof tops
where chimneys had been.
A new half million dollar high
school building was a depressing
spectacle.
Cracks In the earth paralleling the
western wall of the building from
the north end back to the mld-sec-tlon
demonstrated the violence of the
shocks In that section.
Highway patrolmen were on duty
around the building, warning the cu
rious back from the walla.
The state capltol, rising from one
' of. (he highest points In Helena, es
caped with minor Interior damage.
The East Helena plant of the Amer

Arizona Townsendltea were in open
revolt against tha leadership of S. ;
Clements, executive secretary of the
national Townsend organization, and
were bent on forming an "Arizona
Annuity League" to stoal the Town
send thunder.
A committee named to push revolt
plans was scheduled to meet early!
next week and draw up a constitu
tion for the new group, which will
carry on an independent battle for
establishment of the "revolving" pen
sions." Asserted f Allure of the national or
ganization to make financial reports
to the local club, or to the state or
ganization, and failure to push the
recall movements agalnat Arizona's
two senators were listed aa "griev
ances" by bolters.
Leaders of the new movement
claimed they had been unable to
find the number of clubs within the
state, names of state or local offi
cers or any trace of the money which
has been collected from members dur
ing recent months.
State organizers have assertedly col
lected 40 per cent of "dura" paid to
the Townsend organizations while
the remaining 60 per cent has gone
to national officers, and to meet cur
rent expenses. As most meetings
have been financed from the floor,
leaders In the revolt declared, there
should be a large cash balance in the
state and national coffers.
Charges that "some of the backers"
of the Townsend movement have been
opposed to It have been made.

League of Nations employed a power

It will affect directly rnost and In

to meet to decide when the aancM.'-n

The attitude, or measure of cooper

move, will be sought from the United
States and other non-league mem-

Austria, Hungary and Albania re
