from

as
well

Premier

is
shown
in

The
conference
deadlocked
after
Japan's
demand
for
naval
equality
in
fact
as
well
as
principle.
A
number
of
proposals
were
put
forward,
some
of
which
would
have
involved
extensive
reduction
of
naval
armaments,
but
no
plan
was
presented
which
was
acceptable
to
all
five
nations.
The
conference
has
been
dragging
on
more
or
less
spasmodically
but
there
has
been
no
success
in
reaching
agreement
on
a
new
treaty
to
replace
the
expiring
Washington
pact.
In
fact,
the
conference
seems
to
have
proven
quite
futile

Declared
Unconstitutional
in
Important
U.
S.
Supreme
Court
Decision.
WASHINGTON,
D.C,
Jan.
6:
(CP)
In
a
sweeping
decision,
the
United
States
Supreme
Court
today
ruled
the
entire
Agricultural
Adjustment
Act
program
unconstitutional.
In-aij
opinion,
read
by
Justice
Roberts,
the
original
Adjustment
Act
was
declared
to
be
"an
invasion
of
states'
rights"
and
beyond
federal
power
under
the
"general
welfare"
clause.
If
the
farm
aid
legislation
were
valid,
he
said,
it
would
be
possible
for
Congress
"to
regulate
the
industry
in
its
most
meticulous
forms."
Justice
Roberts
said
that
the
processing
tax
was
inseparable
from
the
rest
of
the
act
and
the
Hoosac
Mills
of
Massarhussetts
had
the
right
to
challenge
the
entire
statute.
POLITICAL
EFFECT
Speculation
was
stirred
instantly
today
in
Washington
as
to
how
the
presidential
campaign
this
year
would
be
affected
by
the
ruling
of
the
Supreme
Court
that
the
Agricultural
Adjustments
Act
was
unconstitutional.
Councils
of
war
were
called.
The
Supreme
Court
decision
was
6
to
3
with
Justices
Stone,
Brandeis
and
Cadozo
dissenting.
Presumably
the
government
wilt
seek
to
find
a
way
to
pay
approximately
$500,000,000
due
on
contracts
still
unpaid.
