Carter v. Texas.
Decided October 10, 1938.
Messrs. Earle B. Mayfield, Dan Moody, J. S. Grisham, and B. N. Grisham for appellant.
No appearance for appellee.
[MAJORITY — Per Curiam:]
Per Curiam:
The appeal herein is dismissed (1) for the want of a substantial federal question, Whitney v. California, 274 U. S. 357, 368; (2) for the reason that the appellant has no standing to raise the question as to the validity of the statute under the commerce clause, United States v. Kapp, 302 U. S. 214, 217-218; Kay v. United States, 303 U. S. 1, 6-7.
