Supreme Court weighs $10 million Talbot relief act
Pittsburgh March 11. Pennsylvania’s supreme court opened a special hearing to decide the validity of the Talbot unemployment relief measure. Former Senator Pepper argued the act is within legislative power while Attorney General Schnader and Governor Pinchot urged unconstitutionality. The $16,000,000 general fund appropriation aimed to aid poor districts for hungry and unemployed relief, with questions on district existence and constitutional title.
