SUPREME COURT
UPHOLDS ATTACK
ON KANSAS COURT
(Continuea rrom rage One.)
did not attempt to regulate or con
trol all Industrial disputes, but only
those affecting Its food and fuel sup
ply, and the manufacture of Its cloth
ing. \ Even In those industries, the
court was expected to act only In
times of emergency.
Since Congress in the packers and
stockyards act assumed Jurisdiction
over all Interstate phases of the
packing industry, Kansas contended
1 that it remained for the states to
regulate that purt of the industry
relating to hours of labor, wages
and working conditions. The govern
ment during the world war had cm
phasized the importance of contin
uous and efficient operation of the
packing industry, the stute pointed
out, by the appointment of Federal
Judge Samuel Alexander as admin
istrator to settle disputes and ar
ranging wages and working condi
tions in the larger plants. In times
of peace the states, it insisted, was
fully clothed with authority to regu
late the plants within their borders
in all matters not having a bearing
, upon interstate commerce . Manufuc
i tnre bad repeatedly and consistently
been held by the courts,' Kansas de
dared, to be subject to local regula
tion, interstate commerce in the pro
ducts not beginning until after manu
facture had been completed.
Assumes Jurisdictional
When the packing company re
duced wages, increased hours of la
bor* and refused to renew with its
workmen the contract which expired
in January, 1921, the Industrial Rela
tions Court assumed jurisdiction over
the controversy. After hearings it
issued an order fixing hours of labor
and stipulating a minimum wage.
Tlit! order was ‘ sustained by the
courts of Kansas, in spite of the
Packing Company's protest that its
employees were satisfied with the
wages it had offered them, that the
working hours and other features o*'
tile order were impracticable In the
packing business, and that it would
suffer confiscation of property un
less the order was set aside.
Most of the case presented by the
I packing company was a flat and post
| live denial of tho accuracy ot the
i contentions advanced by the state. It
; was contended that the Industrial
| Court order contained provisions in
excess of the constitutional power
which lawfully could be conferred
upon any tribunal In the country.
The order was void, it was Insisted,
It was discriminatory, not operating
alike upon all employers and employ
ees in any designated industry. The
company denied also that the wages
it paid the employees was a matter
of public concern or affected with
a public interest which gave the
j state jurisdiction to fix them, or that
j there was any evidence that the pro
j posed wage adjustment would pro
j ditoe strife, disorder or a shortage
I of food supply.
