HURLEY CARRIES PLEATOPEOPLE Says Tax Appeals Board Lacks in Experience Saying that the two members appointed to the state Board of Tax Appeals by former Gov James M. Curley as real estate experts were not qualified "to place a real estate value on a henhouse," Gov Charles F. Hurley last night in a speech at the Boston City Club, criticized the two members for lobbying against his bill to reorganize the board and appealed for public support of his measure. He was guest of honor at the annual meeting of the club. The Governor also said he wished to serve notice from a public platform and through the press that he had no agents Hurley Continued on Page 12 BOAKE CARTER Lindbergh's Fixation Parades Fascinate Us All Two Wrongs The Lindbergh hatred for publicity is fast becoming a mania.

Telephoning Speaker Bankhead to congratulate him on his 63d birthday, Mr Roosevelt said: "Many happy returns of the day to you and incidentally it's a pretty good day for all of us, isn't it?" When he signed the act into law, Mr Roosevelt said it was an effort to create "a better relationship between labor and management." Court Plan Foes See Bill "Dead' WASHINGTON, AprU 12 (AP) The Supreme Court tagged the Wagner act "constitutional" today and, by a five to four decision, brought labor relations in a vast sector of the manufacturing industries under the regulatory authorities of the Federal Government. Its verdict, claimed at once as a major vistory for the Roosevelt Administration, obviously had the immediate effect of intensifying the raging Congressional dispute over the President's bill io reorganize the high tribunal. Opponents of the measure promptly asserted that the bill was "dead," because it had been demonstrated to be unnecessary.

Its friends as quickly countered with statements that the status of the measure was unchanged. Some held that the close division of the Court had strengthened the President's position. Compels Bargaining With Help Reduced to their simplest terms today's majority decisions held that the power to regulate commerce "between the states" conferred upon the Federal Government by the Constitu- tion extends to activities "affecting" such com- merce the manufacture, for instance, of articles flowing into the stream of interstate commerce. The minority of four, however, held that in the cases under judgment, at least, the manufacturing processes involved had only an "indirect" effect upon interstate commerce, and were thus beyond the constitutional reach of Federal regulation. Wagner Continued on Page 14 By a vote of 13 to 6 the Boston City Council yesterday gave its approval to the Huntington-av subway extension from Copley station to Mechanic's Building.

The tube will be about 1500 feet long and will cost $1,750,000 of which the Federal Government is expected to contribute approximately $1,000,000. The Elevated assumes a rental at 44 percent, which sponsors of the subway extension said would absorb the cost. Col Thomas F. Sullivan of the Transit Department and Pres Edward Dana of the Boston Elevated appeared before the committee in executive session. Col Sullivan said the work would be done by men on W.

P. A. rolls; that approximately 1000 would be employed and at the peak it would be on a 24-hour basis. Councilor John F. Dowd expressed favor of a project to tear down the from Charlestown to Forest Hills.

Norton, newly appointed head of the Boston State Hospital, was praised and charges against him were branded as "unfounded" in a statement issued yesterday afternoon after four members of the Board of Trustees of the institution had held a three-hour hearing during which 22 doctors and attendants were questioned. The four trustees, Thomas J. Scanlon, Thomas D. Russo, Alexander M.

Sullivan and Harry H. Berman, said that such furniture as State Auditor Thomas H. Buckley determined was burned was dilapidated and vermin-infested. The board said it had no evidence of padded menu lists or clothing slashed for publicity purposes. During the hearing, Dr Margaret R.

Simpson, senior physician, and Dr Purcell Schube, assistant to Dr Norton, told of the large number of patients who previous to the Dr Norton administration were bound down in beds. Take Issue With Buckley "The hospital in the past had more patients in restraint," said Dr Schube, "than any other institution State Hospital Continued on Page 13 Wagner bill upheld, 5 to President hints his pleasure.

GONANT DEFENDS HIS DISMISSALS Denies Walsh and Sweezy Dropped for Politics Stating that "a man's political or economic views should not count either for or against him," Pres James B.

Conant of Harvard yesterday defended his dismissal of J. Raymond Walsh and Alan R. Sweezy, liberal Harvard Col lege instructors, in a declaration at the meeting of the Board of Overseers. The men, both well known for their liberal political and economic views, were given two- year concluding appointments by Harvard last week because the college Department of Economics has not seen fit to advance them after several years 1 of instruction. Conant Continued on Page 12 Surprised Outside Bank Rodgers told police he had the $2000, the total of his company's cream collections for the day, on the front seat of his car and intended to deposit the money in the bank.

As he brought his car to a standstill in front of the bank at 3:30 this afternoon, Rodgers says the rear door was suddenly opened and he felt something against his neck. "Get going," the robber ordered, "and drive where I tell you. If you don't I will shoot." Rodgers glanced over his shoulder and saw the man was carrying a revolver. He then promptly put the machine in gear and started for Dearborn road as instructed.

Lewis today of seeking to become "economic and political dictator" of both the United States and Canada. If Lewis "or any of his gang" came to Canada and committed a single overt act," they would be put in jail "for a good, long time, and there wouldn't be any bail," the blunt-spoken head of the Ontario Government added in a talk with United States newspapermen. This jail threat, Hepburn said, applied. to Hugh Thompson, Lewis' organizer in 'charge of the General Motors strike in Oshawa, 30 miles east of here.

Lewis, bushy browed generalissimo of the recent sit-down strikes in the automobile industry, declared tonight that the "instability" of the Supreme Court requires enactment of President Roosevelt's reorganization bill. Commenting upon the court's decisions today upholding the Wagner Labor Relations Act, chairman of the Committee the for Industrial Organization said: "The quibblers of ancient Greece were intellectual sluggards as compared with our Supreme Court. Apparently the destiny of our republic and the well-being of its population de-depend upon the legalistic whims and caprices of one man. Yesterday the Guffey Coal Stabilization Act was struck down. Today the Wagner Labor Relations Act is sustained.

If today the court is right, then yesterday, forsooth, the court was wrong. "The court is as variable as the wind, and the people wonder how long they are to be the victims of its instability. Obviously the situation needs change. The President's court plan is the immediate answer. Reaction Continued on Page 14 3JC Page 36 Confession of ex-jockey admitted as evidence at murder trial.

1.57 Departure from normal 0.30 Today's Globe Contents By CHARLES S. GROVES WASHINGTON, April 12 Two points of view obtained here tonight as to the effect the epochal Supreme Court decisions, upholding the validity of the National Labor Relations act, originally the Wagner-Connery bill, would have on the present attempt by President Roosevelt to add six Supreme Court justices unless those over 70 retire. Opponents of the President's court plan hailed the decision as eliminating every argument advanced in support of the President's plan. Senator Connally of Texas, said that the decision would have a "profound effect" on those members of the Senate who are still committed on the court bill. Senator Wheeler of Montana, spearhead of the opposition, was more sanguine.

He declared the decisions today would mean the defeat of the President's proposal. Walsh Doubtful of Effect Senator Walsh was not prepared to say just what he thought effect would be. Comment Continued on Page 14 Page 12 What People Talk About, iPage 13 Huge Pawtucket mill signs with C. I. O.
