Judge Rules OPA Acts lllegal

I-os Angeles, Nov. 30-In a decision affecting OPA procedure, Federal Judge Peirson M. Hall today dismissed two suits for treble damages over alleged ceiling violations'

He ruled that Office of Price Administration agents must obtain their evidence through subpena as it "has no right in either civil or criminal cases to go into a man's place of business or home and take records or eviden-ce from there without proper legal procedure."

The court also held that the OPA administrator has rt,r authority to bring treble damage suits in price ceiling cases except against bootleggers and black market operators.

One of the suits had been brought against Glick Brothers, lumber dealers, Los Angeles. The OPA admitted in court going into the Glick concern's offrce rn'ithout subpena, but claimed the company had agreed to permit examination of its records.

OPA's chief litigation attorney, H. Eugene Breitenbach, annou'nced that he intended to appeal the Glick case.

A Satire in Rhyme

(Editor's Note: An officer in one of our army depots sent the following verse to a friend who sent it on to the editor of "The Houghtor-r Line," who printed it. So do we. The author is unknown. But read it. It's hot.)

As head of the division of provision for revisiott, Was a man of prompt decision, Merton Quirk. Ph. D. in calisthenics, PDQ in pathogenics, He had just the proper background for the work.

From the pastoral aroma of Aloma, Oklahorna, With a pittance of a salary in hand, His acceptance had been whetted, even aided and abetted, By emolument that netted some five gra-nd.

So with energy ecstatic this fanatic left his attic, And hastened on to \Arashington, D. C. Where with verve and vim and vigor he went huntiug for the nigger, In the woodpile of the WPB.

After months of patient process Merton's spicular proboscis, Had unearthed a reprehensible hiatus, In reply by Blaire and Blaire to the thirteentl'r cluestionuaire, In connection with their inventory status.

They had written, "Your directive when eflective was - defective, In its ultimate objective, and what's 1nore, Neolithic hieroglyphic is to us much more specific Than the drivel you keep dumping at our door."

This sacrilege discovered, Merton fainted, but recovere<l Sufficiently to write "We are convinced That sabotage is camouflaged behind perverted persiflage; Expect me on the 22nd inst."

But first he sent a checker, and then a checker's checker, Still nothing was disclosed as being wrong; So a checker's checker came to check the checker's checker,

And the process was laborious and long.

Then followed a procession of the follow-up profession, Through the records of the firm of Blaire and Blaire; From breakfast until supper some new super-follow-uppcr Tore his hair because of Merton's questionnaire.

The file is closed, completed, though our hero, undefeated, Carries on in some department as before; But victory is in sight, not because of, but in spite Of Merton's mighty efforts in the war.
