guments on which Mayor Walker re
lies to obtain court intervention and
halt his answer bearing before Gov
ernor Roosevelt were laid before Su
preme Court Justice Ellis J. Staley to
-lay-
Staley adjourned his session until
Wednesday, when John J. Curtin,
Walker’s counsel, will submit briefs
of his argument.
Closing his contention that Roose
velt had denied the mayor his right.
Curtin said: “When you come to think
that the governor feels that he is
above the law and there is no appeal,
you will see that we can only go to
.he court for an order to avoid dif
.icult conflicts that might otherwise
ensue."
Mayor Walker was not at the court
session.
Upon youth shoulders of Henry
Epstein, deputy attorney general, fell
the task of combating the Walker

clear the mayor. The deputy is a son
in-law of Max G. Steuer, one oi Tam

Raleigh, Aug. 22. -Operators for-hire
trucks from Georgia will now be re
quired to purchase a North Carolina
license plate as soon as they cross the
North Carolina line and State high
way patrolmen have been ordered to
watch for these trucks and arrest the
drivers ut once unless they have the
proper licenses. Captain Charles D.
Farmer, commander of the patrol, said
today.
For almost a ye ir now Georgia of
ficers ;iave been arresting drivers of
North Carolina trucks in Georgia,
forcing them to buy licenses and In
many cases w "*
well, Captain Farmer said. During
most of this time, North Carolina has
not been molesting Georgia trucks,
either private or for-hire, pending ef
fort* to get a reciprocity agreement
with Georgia, But these efforts have
finally collapsed, with result that from
now on North Carolina officers are
going to bear down on the Georgia
for-hire trucks just as hard as the
Georgia officers have gone after North
Carolina trucks, Farmer said.
"The only thing we can do Is to
require all Georgia for-hire trucks to

I Representative Sol Bloom, “no ' more

Naturally, with the presidential

j The New York representative, who
j is one of the richest men in public

! this question. As a Democrat, he]
j frantkly likes to be as suspicious as '
I possible of tne present party in power. \
j Nevertheless, he was prompt to acquit I
l the G. O. P. administration of re- j
| sponsibility for Wall Street’s recent!
■ bullishness.
"The whole market," he insisted i
“can’t be artificially boosted.
"Some single stock can be. but no I
| influence is strong enough fco advance
j practically all stocks unless the pub- ;
I lie’s psychology is right.”
Isn’t the White House influence
potent enough to create the right psy
j ehology?
| "Its been repeatedly demonstrated

j man. During the entire early period
1 of the depression,, didn't President

According to some accounts the j
