Behind the scenes in Washington by Rodney Dutcher
The Supreme Court will hear major New Deal cases this term with four measures facing the bench before summer recess. The Guffey coal act the securities act of 1933 federal low coal housing activities and PWA financing of municipal power plants are headed for review within months. Other disputes include the national labor relations act the railroad pensions act and public utilities holding company act. The social securities reform and its companion measures also loom, with coal producers suing to block the Guffey tax aimed at enforcing price standards. A Louisville case questions federal power to condemn property for uses by private parties, while the holding company act and railroad retirement act may also be reviewed. The labor relations act trek to the court arises from the Giveyhound Bum Company case, slated for hearing in March before the Philadelphia circuit court.
