WASHINGTON, March 9.?Presenta- !

the Constitution was concludod to
j.v in the Supreme Court. The case
.pjm Kentucky will be disposed of to
morrow. after which the question will
k* lef. to the nation's highest tribunal
{or decision.
Counsel for those attacking the
ggeudment continued to-day to argue :
?'?at it was revolutionary and an inva
atn of states' rights.
"You are now coming to a fork in the
joad, one leading to the power of
?BWBdment and tiie other back to the
Constitution." Levy Mayer, of Chicago,
?old the court in opening for the Ken
tocky complainants. "The very propo
sition is staggering. There is no dif
Vrer.cc if we discuss whisky, tobaeco
or cotton. I rise above the question
that this deals with whisky and dwell
on the principle involved?can this Con
_;;tut:on be uprooted ?
Question Exceeds Prohibition
"The question is more than ?prohibi?
tion. Police power is synonyraous with
the sovereignty of the state. Remove
the police power, and r.o state will
exist."
Mr. Mayer denied that tho amend?
ment had been ratified properly in
vcw of ref erendum provisions in nu
Btrous state constitutions requiring
such proposals to be submitted to the
votcrs.
These contentions were denied by Se
licitor General Kirg and Assistant At?
torney General Frierson, who argued
the amendment was properly adopted
bf Congress and had .been ratified by
three-fourths of the states. The So
Hcitor General also said the amend?
ment di>i not interfere with the func
tions of the states, but gave to ttu
Federa^ govi rnment power t^ act with
the states in enforcing prohibition and
resulted from a general demand upon
Conjre?H to assisi "dry" states in on

* "brewer of bigotry," declared he did
rot say the Catholic (.'hurch was affili
*t?d with any political organization.
He renewed his criticism of prominent
Utholics. however, for their cspousal
r't liherai liquor legislation.
"Not even the Archbishop of New
'ork can obscure an issue by talking
sbont something eise, and the denial
of something e!se, while failing to deny
the specific thing that I have said, con
stitutes a confession of tho trtith of
J9 statement," said Mr. Anderson. "I
<iid not say that 'the Catholic Church
:s affiliated with any political organi
^ation,' nor did I say that 'the Church
Isjn conspiracy to contravene directly
?r mdirectly the law of the land.'
?here is great distinct ion between 'tk|

*oat I did say is that 'most of the
wtieiary of the Roinan Catholi: Church
:n this state' are 'in sympathy with'
t!"? Tammany efTorts to destroy the
Prohibition victory. which is a dirterent
aatter.
Refers to CardinaPs Speech
?v cop-clusive proof of the truth of
?R's statement is found in the fact that
'? tho day that it was sent out Car
?iaa! Gibbons publicly and specifically
declared for permitting tho manufac
turo of beer and wine. Further, the
Archbishop might simply havo declincd
the invitation to be present at our law
and order meeting, but when he went
out of the wny to rebuke the singling
out of the prohibition law for enforce
ment when it had been single'd out for
violation and millification, and when
the Federal government had sihgled it
out for support, he apparontly under
ostimated the discernment of the
public.
"The Archbishop can r-cfute the
Anti-Saloon League's statement on
this point in one way, and ono way
only. If he will declare that he him
self is opposed to nnd believes that
Catholics as law-nbiding citizens
should oppose (1) any attempt to
bring back beer and wine for beverage
purposes while the EiKhteenth Amend
?.r.e;* still stands; or (2) to change the
Federal enforcement law until prohi?
bition has had a fair test, or (3) to
attempt to nullify national prohibition
by a beer bill in New York State, the
league will make due amends, and the
more gladly because of the tremen
dous impetus which such a declaration
will give to genuine enforcement in
New York."

Mortgage Tax
Repeal Urged in
High Rent War
Continued from pago on*
on a broad scale, adding that it would
take away a large sum of money from
the state and localitics in income taxes.
Mr. Statler in reply declared that
this would be more than made up in
the taxes from increased property as
sessments. Ho said that on the in?
come from $100,000,000 of mortgages
tho revenue would only bc a couple of
hundred thousand doilars, whereas if
j tke money was put into real estate
j improvements tho total to the state
i and localities from increased assess
| ment rolls would be about $3,500,000.
J. Richard Davis, representing the
I housing committee of the New York
| City Merchants' Association, contended
I that rent profiteering is found only in
j isolated cases and that in most. cases
| rent increases were justified, because
|of increased costs of construction and
I maintenance. Another speaker said
j that high rents have come to stay and
j that the public soon will accustom
itself to the new living scale. He con
j tended that restrictive legislation fix
I ing rentals will onlv hinder building
construction and not solve the housing
problem.
Rise in Building Costs
Tho production pace of labor was
brought up in the discussion of build
ing costs. C. C. Miller, of the Bronx
j Board of Trade, said that bricklayers
now at $10 a day only set 400 bricks,
'? against a daily average of 1,200 a fe*w
! years ago, when their pay was much
; lower. He pointed out that building
I costs naturally jump when it requires
three men to do the work of one and
1 for wages considerably higher.
State Tax Commissioner Miller ex
| pressed the opinion that the solution
| of tho housing situation lies in the
' rural districts, where tlnre are plenty
: of houses and lots of work. He said
; farmers axo compelled to cut down pro?
duction because of the exodus from
| the farm to the city, and that the time
1 is soon coming when the city dwellcr
will have to leave the city and go back
to the farm in order to live.
No action was taken on either of the
bills. Chairman Franklin Judson of
the Assembly Taxation Committee said
he did not believe the Lockwood bill
would save the mortgage holders
enough money to make any appreciable
difference in the amount of money in
vested in real estate.
The legislative committee of the
! State Bar Association has condemned
'. the Lockwood bill, and has sent copies
tof its indictments of the proposed legis
; lation to members of both houses of
the Legislature.
Legislative leaders have decided on
; three other methods of solving the rent
situation.
Assemblyman Judson announced to?
day that bills carrying out the ideas
. of the legislative leaders will be draft
ed within the next two weeks. These
measures will provide for:
A surtax on the income from real
ostate. Excessive prolits from rents
will be heavily taxed under this provi
sion.
The creation of a rent commission
which would act as a court in deter
mining whether rental charge was fair
and reasonable.
The ending of the right of summary
? proceedings. A landlord must prove
\ that he is not getting a fair income
on his investment before he could evict
: a tenant for refusing to pay increased
? rent.
Many of the fifty-eight rent bills
now before the Legislature seek to
' bring about these results. Assembly?
man Judson said they would be used
as a basis in working out the measures
which will eventually be passed.
"We have got to be very careful," he
I said. "We must give every impetus to
building activity and at the same time
we must cnact legislation that will
solve the rent situation not only in
New York City, but in Rochester and
.Buffalo. The situation ls such that
? something must be done immediately.''
Of the bills to encourage building.
Mr. Judson thought the most feasible
suggestions were those to enable sav?
ings banks to increase the amount of
money they can lend on mortgages as
i well as Ikj require insurance compan?
ies to invest a certain amount of their
surplus in real estate loans and mort?
gages. Banks can now lend up to 60
per cent of the value of real property
; in mortgages. Mr. Judson thought this
could be increased to 70 or even 80
'. per cent.
Other retil estate measures now be?
fore the legislature provide:
That. cities may acquire land on

Threats of 350,000 members of the
Central Federated Union to join in a

Mayor Hylan yesterday by Edward I.
Hannah, president, and Errfest Bohm,
secretary of the union. The Mayor told
the union officials of a plan suggested
to him by James F. Gannon jr., director
of revenues and finances of Jersey City,
to relieve the housing problem in New
York by erecting apartment buildings
out of the public funds.
Mr. Hannah told the Mayor that
workmen were growing rcstless over
soaring rents. He said in spite of the
higher pay they were unable to make
their incomes meet their expenses. The
Mayor promised to confer with the
union officials again to-day.
Asked concerning reports that the
nnion was contemplating a general
trade strike as a protest against rent
profiteering, Mr. Hannah said:
"Much will depend on what progress
is made toward relieving the situation.
I will know better when I see the
Mayor to-morrow. I do not believe
much can be accomplished by the Gan?
non plan.
"What we need is immediate relief.
It would take too long for the city to
finish sufficient apartment houses to
do any good. We want the Mayor to do
something, and do it quickly."

Amendment Constitutional,
States Cannot Resort to
Referendum, Says Bench
TRENTON, March 9.-Federal Judge
Rellstab to-day denied the application
of Christian Feigenspan, a brewer of
Newark, for a preliminary injunction
against tho enforcement of the Vol
stead act by United State3 Attorney
Bodine and Intcrnal Revenue Collector
Duffy. In upholding the constitu
tionality of the Volstead act and the
Federal prohibition amendment the
court said:
"What Congress has the power to do
in exercising an implied power-it as
suredly may do in the carrying out of
an express power. The alleged loss
to the plaintiff whfch it is said will
necessarily' result frdm an enforce?
ment of the national prohibition act
is incidental to the exercise by Con?
gress of a constitutional power, and it
alone determines whether compensa?
tion shall be made for such loss."
The court allowcd the defendant's
application to dismiss the bill of com
plaint.
The opinion, in discussing the at
tacks on the constitutionality of the
prohibition amendment, stated that at
the time the amendment was proposed
to the states more than two-thirds of
them had decreed the liquor business
to be an outlaw.
On the point that the amendment had
not been ratificd by the requisite nvrm
ber of states the court swept aside

publication and to dismiss its editor
t'rom college.
The managing editor, William J.
Dalton, of Buffalo, was summoned be?
fore the university head and told that
the faculty considered the art work
"indecent." Mr. Dalton shocked the
chancellor still further by telling him
that it was the work of a co-ed.
Another objection to the number, the
chancellor pointed out, lay in a picture
of ap attractive bathing girl on tTie
cover. The demand for conies of the
publilation exceeded the supply within
& short time after the chancellors
edict had gone forth. By noon ali
newsstands were bare.
Dalton to-night is trying to enlist
friends of the faculty in an effort to
get back into tollege. If he succeeds,
he says he will never again attempt to
j edit college publications. Evidently,
i he says, "it tak*s a better man than
i I am to give the public what it wants
| without bringing wrath on your own
i head in the doing thereof."
