EAJTK ACT CALLED ILLEGAL Detroit. The Rev. Charles E. Couglilin said he believes the federal reserve bank act is unconstitutional, ! I ue AAA was invalidated. Senator Norris (R.), Nebraska, bluntly expressed to farm leaders at Washington Tuesday a view that no law regulating agricultural produc tion would be held constitutional in the light of the supreme court's AAA decision. His opinion was given at a senate agriculture committee meeting sum moned to hear farm views on AAA's replacement. The committee room, jammed with farmers, became sud denly silent when Norris said: "I don't believe it possible to pass any law that in any way regulates agricultural produc tion that would be held consti tutional. I hate to say it." Ask Alternative. Earl C. Smith, Pike county (Illi nois) farmer, and president of the Illinois Agricultural association, had just presented a farm leigslation pro gram recently submitted to Secretary of Agriculture Wallace at the mass conference of representatives of farm organizations called by Wallace when on the same basis of reasoning by which the supreme court invalidated the NRA and the AAA. j "Congress has no constitutional j right to delegate its power without Smith said he believed congress could devise an agricultural control program within the bounds of the constitution and one that would meet with the approval of the supreme j specification," the Detroit priest said, i court.

This statement was immediately challenged Regretfully by Norris who, nevertheless, expressed ''entire agreement" with the recommenda tions of the farm group- made to the administration Saturday that soil conservation and domestic allotments be the basis of a hew program. "I think the decision wa wrong, absolutely wrong," Nor ris said. "I thought the act was constitutional and think so yet." He was applauded loudly. Suggests Added Powers. Norris asked Smith: "You feel the crop produc tion must be regulated?" Smith nodded affirmatively. "But," the Nebraskan went on, "the court says in so many words 'regulation of agriculture is unconstitutional.' You don't have to be a lawyer to see that point. "The supreme court has appel late jurisdiction with such ex ceptions as congress may pro vide. "We could pass a law by which we could take away juris diction over this subject from the lower courts and providing, say, that a supreme court de cision on this must be unani mous. "Then the decision of a week ago onday would have been Just the opposite." Norris gave no immediate indi cation, however, that he planned to pres3 for such a statute. No 'Parlor Farmers' The committee was called in spe cial session by Its chairman, Senator Smith (D. ), of South Carolina, mili tant member of the senate farm bloc, who made it plain at the outset that it was to be devoted entirely to farm ers real dirt farmers, or their representatives.

State Would Encourage Oil Prospecting Cuts the Minimum Lease on State Lands to 10c an Acre; Means a Minimum of $64 a Section. Acting upon the aevrce of Attor ney General Wright, the state board of educational lands and funds Mon day assumed jurisdiction to lower the minimum charge for prospecting for oil upon state leased lands from $25 a year upon forty acres to 10 cents per acre, which means a mini mum of $64 a section. When the state leases lands it reserves the min eral rights and these rights may oe leased separately, the state to receive one-eighth of any oil or mineral dis covered by the prospector. Several prospecting companies have been asking for mineral or oil leases but have been demurring to the price charged by the state. While the pros pecting rights are now available at 10 cents an acre, those desiring such rights have the privilege of bidding as high as they please, and the state will accept the highest bid. Usually there has been no contest over min eral leases such as occurred many years ago when there was a rush to obtai npotash rights on lakes on state lands in the northwestern part of the state. There are several companies prospecting for oil in various parts of the state. The board some weeks nort his wife and two children.
