Description

Upon grounds repeatedly rejected and never sustained by numerous United States courts, the appellants in these six similar cases, heard together on this appeal, unsuccessfully attacked in the District Court the constitutionality of Sections 215 and 216 of the National Industrial Recovery Act, 48 Stat. 207, 208, and Sections 701 and 702 of the Revenue Act of 1934, Ch. 277, 48 Stat. 680, 26 U.S.C.A., Internal Revenue Acts, pages 787, 789. The grounds of attack were, as usual, that the challenged laws are so unreasonable, capricious, arbitrary and discriminatory as to violate the due process clause of the Fifth Amendment and impose a direct tax in violation of Article I, Section 2, Clause 3, and Article I, Section 9, Clause 4, of the Constitution of the United States.
