Bigger Need In ’45 ■ ieh /2L Ik Nejd for continued high production of soybeans is even greater this Tear than h> 1914, according to the War Food Admyu»tratfon. The smaller quantity of lard available will call for still wider use of soybean oil in shortening, as well as ilfr cooking and salad oil and in niarjjrine. In addition. Western Eu* roptflLces.a critical fats and oils situationarid will need American soybean oil. »■ WFA points out that whatever the trend of the war, fats and oils will be in abort supply this year and in 1946. Even if the 1945 soybean goal of 10,757,000 acres for harvest as beans were passed, says WFA, it would not produce a surplus. Minimum requirements are for 190 million bushels of soybeans, and with an average yield of 17.8 bushels per acre, the goal would produce only slightly thbre than that. Although thera are many industrial 1 uses for soybean oil. its non-food use is : at present prohibited except for direct militaryTirders, due to the greater need for its nutritional values. The meal left after processing for oil”is used largely for livestock feed, although it also goes into high-protein flour for human consumption. adhesives, vegetable glue and Jiaint. Protein from the meal appears in certain plastics. Assistance from the Agricultural Adjustment Agency Is available to growers in most soybean states for contouring and terracing to protect their soil from erosion,Tvhere the beans are grown on sloping land, and to help increase yields.

Labor Leaders Hail ; High Court Ruling i Florida Statute On Unions Is Outlawed Washington, June 12—(UP)— ■ Leaders of organized labor today hailed the latest supreme court ruling as a victory over state efforts to regulate union activities. In its busiest day* of the present term the court yesterday outlawed a Florida statute requiring labor unions and their agents to register and be licensed with the state. In another important decision the high court directed the acquittal of 24 former German-Ameri-can bundlats convicted in New York of advising bund members to evade the draft law. The court delivered formal decisions covering 17 cases and announced that it will meet again next Monday, three weeks past the date originally set for its summer adjournment. Fifteen cases on the docket are still barring adjournment. They include the government’s antitrust suit against the Associated Press and the fight of Harry Bridges, west coast labor leader, to escape deportation to his native Australia as an alien communist. Justice Hugo L. Black, writing a 7 to 2 decision, held the Florida labor law invalid on the grounds that it conflicted with collective bargaining freedoms granted employes in the national labor relations act. The tribunal refused, however, to rule on the constitutionality of an Alabama law regulating unions because a dispute had never actually arisen over the law’s operation. Justice Owen J. Roberts read the 5 to 4 decision in the case of the 24 ex-bundists, declaring that the government's case was lacking in evidence and that merely counseling evasion was not a crime under the selective service act. In other actions the court also: 1. —Upheld, 5 to 4, an action by the Illinois supreme court i efusing a state license to practice law to Clyde Wilson Summers, 27 year old conscientious objector and University of Illinois graduate. Summers was declared ineligible because of his views to-
