Baby Bonds Proposed For Veterans Drive To Curtail PREMIUMS BE Court's Powers
A bloc of House members planned a drive to curb Supreme Court powers without a constitutional amendment. Representative Cross said he could get a House Judiciary Committee hearing on a bill to bar inferior courts from deciding constitutionality of acts of Congress and to strip the Supreme Court of ruling on constitutionality in cases on appeal. The plan would base changes on Article III Section 2. The idea drew support from several Democrats and was discussed in a closed session.
