Congress Acts To Shield AAA From Supreme Court Rulings
Washington June 6 Congress moved quickly to back the agricultural adjustment administration with a bill from Secretary Wallace. If the Supreme Court finds processing taxes unconstitutional, it would bar suits to recover $824,430,579 already paid, and allow continued levies through December 31, 1936. The plan also aims to strengthen marketing orders for milk, fruits, and vegetables and limit AAA actions to interstate commerce or activities in substantial competition.
