Supreme Court Faces TVA Act Challenge

The Supreme Court hears extended arguments on the constitutionality of the Tennessee Valley Authority Act. Attorneys Forney Johnston and James M. Beck urge invalidity on states’ rights and delegated powers grounds, while Solicitor General Reed and John Lord O’Brien defend it as aiding navigation and national defense. The case stems from a contract where Alabama Power would transfer TVA transmission lines from Wilson Dam to seven Alabama counties, with fourteen minority stockholders seeking to block the deal.
