## Opinion text

PRENDERGAST, Judge
(concurring).—I hold the Act is valid as a necessary and reasonable regulation.
And I also hold it valid under the inalienable police power of the Legislature as straight prohibition in the prescribed zones, as a necessary aid to the successful prosecution of the war.
And I further hold there is no constitutional provision, State or national, which directly- or by implication forbids or prevents it.
