( The triple license system was 1 < one of the most bitterly contested < features of the bill including its » progress through the legislature. 1

Under the new law. minimum license fees for places selling liquor wilj be: Indianapolis. 1.000; second class cities. »900; third class cities. $825: fourth class cities. $775: fifth class. $625; and towns, $625. Taverns are legalized in cities of less than 5,000 population only upon passage of town or city ordinances. Forty counties have towns in that class. The county liquor boards will consist of three members, one named by the state hoard, one by the mayor of the largest city within tiie county, and the third by tile county commissioners. Their duties will be to make recommendations for retailer permits and aid in the enforcement of state! regulations. Each member will re- 1 ceive a monthly salary of $lO and $2 additional for each application investigated over 40 in any one year. Retail liquor stores, licensed on . a basis of the class of the city in which they are located, are permitted to sell by package only. Drug stores are the only other outlets for package liquor. Wholesale liquor dealers who are not wholesale druggists may establish and maintain one liquor package store in the county of residence. Liquor license fee for fraternal clubs is 7100, plus 15 cents for each member in excess of 500. For other clubs, the fee is $250 plus 15 cents for members in excess of 500. Liquor and beer dispensaries may be located within 200 feet of a school or church only upon special order of the state board. One rewery is permitted for each 175.000 population but not more than four can operate in one congresional district. The annual license fee will be $2,000. Present license holders will be given preference in new applications. Under the new law. all beer licenses, including rural night clubs, and road houses, are given until June 1 to continue to sell beer. All beer licenses expire on that date. Although the law abolishes the present importer system, those now operating will he permitted to continue until Nov. 15 when they must close. Hereafter all wholesalers will be permitted to operate as importers providing they have a port of entry permit. The bill provides tor a cliange in distribution of the excise taxes to give local school corporations 33*6 per cent on an attendance basis. The remaining 66 2-3 per cent will be distributed to cities, counties and towns. One eer wholesaler Is psrmltted for each 20.000 population in each | county. The license fee is SI,OOO annually. Whisky distillers are charged $2,000 for annual license fees and are prohibited from engaging in wholesale or retail business. The annual license fee for rectifiers is SSOO. Display of any sign advertising a braid of alcoholic beverage on or adjacent to the place where it is sold is prohibited. o Income Publicity Repeal Is Likely Washington. Morch 11—(UP)— Speaker Joseph W. Byrns predicted passage of the bill reiealing Income tax publicity by a “big vot-e" as the house convened today with the “pink slip" repeal measure the order of business. “I think it will pass by a big vote and >1 roll call may not be necessary," Byrns said. Under the rule for consideration of the bill, vote on passage was indicated by 4 p. m. The rule provided for one hour debate on the measure, while another hour was provided for debate on the rule itself.

COURT RULINGS WOW LEADERS New Dealers Fret Over Recent Federal Court Decisions (Editor’s Note: The New Deal is face to face with supreme court tests which may make or break the principal laws and agencies on which its program is bused. How have decisions stacked up so far? The ones adverse to the new d°al are reviewed in the following dispatch. Tomorrow the favorable ones will be analyzed.) Washington. Mar. 11.— <U.R) — Recent reversals in the federal courts have the new driers i frankly worried. Decisions invalidating the na- ■ tional recovery act and other 'emergency legislation have ,eI verstsl an earlier tendency by the | courts to sanction emergency | actions. The situation is rapidly coming to a climax, with the supreme ! court next week hearing argu-1 I ments in Its first NRA case. New dealers feel the action of . the court in outlawing section 9 <c) _the “hot oil" section of the recovery act has i’ia<l a demoralizing effect on the lower courts. This tendency, they believe, has been increased by the decision of Judge John P. Nields in Wilmington, Del., bolding section 7 (a) — the labor bargaining provisioninapplicable to the Weirton Steel company in a ruling involving interstate commerce. Prior to that time the legal minds of the administration, preaching a new liberal policy of judicial interpretation, had won court after court to their view. So preponderant was this tendency that Judge George B. Harris in the case of an Ohio motor code 1 case exclaimed in a decision. "I ■ ; have some sympathy for many of : ! the allegations of the defendant, hut the trend of authorities for ] the past 18 months in state and federal courts has been such as' to persuade me that I should not I imitate king Canute and endeavor I with my weak hand to hold back the tide.” In, spite of the recent conservative tendency new deal lawyers have successfully defended 119 NRA cases, lost 34 and 63 are pending. In the agricultural adjustment administration they have won 12, lost 11. and have 5 pending. The Tennessee Valley authority has lost one case when Judge William I. Grubb of Alabama held the TVA unconstitutional. Tiie national labor relations board, charged with administering section 7 (a), lost the Weirton steel case and a minor labor dispute case. Several other cases including the Houde Engineering company case in Buffalo, N. Y„— the “majority rule” case — are pending. The public works administration suffered one rebuff when a federal court in Louisville. Ky. ruled that it could not condemn land for slum clearance. This case is pending before the supreme court. The major difficulties of the NRA have been encountered in the lumber, retail motor, coal and retail industries including the service codes. So far. few major organizations have questioned the act. The drive against the law in the lumber trade has resulted iu Judge Grubb holding the NIR A invalid in a case involving wage land hour provisions of the code. The Hammond Box case, Judge Wayne G. Borah in New Orleans.

I ruled similarly. The first test of the NRA in supreme court, which may be de- ‘ cided on the validiy of the state j iaw, is the Spielman Motor cotjipany case from New York.
