Eugene and John Jilka v. Saline County, Kansas, Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation Committee, Its Review Committee, and United States of America, 330 F.2d 73, 10th Cir. (1964)
2d 73
This case arose under the Agricultural Adjustment Act of 1938, as amended, 7
U.S.C. 1281 et seq. The Review Committee sustained the wheat allotment of
the County Committee and imposed a penalty for overproduction. Suit was
brought in the United States District Court attacking the order. The court
dismissed the action and this appeal followed.
Lines, Inc., 344 U.S. 33, 38, 73 S.Ct. 67, 97 L.Ed. 54. In our opinion there was
no defect. We construe 'nearby' as used in the statute to mean near or close at
hand rather than adjoining or contiguous. In a state the size of Kansas the
counties are nearby.
