Grain Trading Bill Is Voided in High Court
The Supreme Court, in an opinion by Chief Justice Taft with Brandeis dissenting, held Section 4 of the future trading act and related tax provisions unenforceable as an overreach of federal taxing power on grain futures. It found that sales for future delivery in grain exchanges are not interstate commerce and that Section 11 would not salvage the act by isolating valid parts. The court did uphold Sections 3 and 9 as valid, preserving the 20 cent per bushel tax on certain trading privileges and granting investigations by the Agriculture Secretary.
