6 The Newt-Review, Roseburg, Ore. Thur. Feb. 11, 19S4Qhlirch LcadCFS Claim Religious Education Good What Price Love? Stores Hope To Recoup Sales With Valentine Motif Presents By SAM DAWSON NEW YORK Wl "Lov is in the air," carols an Indianapolis tore in its windows filled with valentine pretties. "Win his heart with home bar accessories," a New York hard ware merchant chimes in. "Show her your affection with a diamond platinum heart," pleads a New York jeweler price $5,175. That's affection? What price love? And a Fifth Avenue store builds a window display around zebra undies nestling in out-size hearts. Merchants around the land echo this amiable hope that love will fill the hearts of the nation this week as never before and move a wide variety of articles from the stores to the object of your af fections. That loving Impulse couldn't be more welcome than this year when so many are a little unsure as to the trend of sales in general. Greeting card makers appear confident that this will be their biggest valentine season. They predict some 300 million cards will be exchanged. That could mean that every American old enough to read and write would send one and get one. f lorists always find the patron saint oi lovers a vig am to sales. The telephone and telegraph companies count on business from those separated by the miles, or by those who forget until the last minute. Candy makers are stuffing neart-snapeo boxes witn sweets and hoping this year, in spite of the high price of chocolate, will ee their biggest sales volume. If a swain Is in the chips he can pay as high as $35 for a box. Heart-shaped bottles are being filled with perfume. And this year a California vinyard is touting similar bottles for sherrv and port. A New York delicatessen has heart-shaped salami, just in case CINCINNATI Ufi Weekday re iigious education, often in the lime light because of court fights over its legality, is leading more and mnrp rhilrlrpn in rhllrph nffiliufinn that's the direction your affection ; the National Council of Churches takes. A Chicago store reports that valentine promotions on lingerie have been bringing in a lot of customers. A South Bend, Ind., shop re ports the same for women's blouses, but fails to state whether the sales were to women taking advantage of price mark-downs or to their admirers who think a new blouse might perk up the girls a little. Hosiery and gloves are also be ing pushed as fitting gifts. The men aren't forgotten. "Give your beau a pink-and-black shirt and socks ensemble," a merchant counsels the girls. Necktie makers plug their wares as a surprise gift for a male who by now may have got over the shock of his Christmas cravat. Jumlm-s i z e d cuff links will bowl him over Feb. 14, a jewelers trade group is con fident. Merchants outside the usual path of Valentine's Day shoppers are trying for the market this year Lovers can find an appropriate gift, one says, among his stock oi fjuri-ujaiurs, cnanng aisncs, toasters, silent butlers and ash trays, TO GREET KNIGHT PORTLAND Wl Gov.

INVITES DELEGATION COLOMBO, Ceylon W) In a bid for new trade with south Asia, Russia has invited 12 coun tries in the region to send five man delegations to the Soviet Un ion in September or October. Compromise Seen On Wiretapping In Security Cases WASHINGTON Wl A Comoro mise was in prospect Wednesday on Republican differences which have stymied House consideration of a bill to legalize wiretapping in national security cases. One possibility, reported to he looked upon with favor at the White House, would hand authoritv :or permuting wiretapping over to me rresiueni insicaa ot me attor ney general as now proposed in the administration-backed version. It is this matter of authority which has held up wiretap legisla tion in the House. GOP leaders had tentatively planned to call it up for action last month. Attorney General Brownell con tends that control over wireta.D in terceptions should be vested in the attorney general alone. He argues it would be less cumbersome, and would largely prevent the possibil ity of security "leaks." On the other hand, a House ludiciary subcommittee already has approved a bill by Rep. Keat ing (R-NY) yhich not only would require approval by the attorney general, but also an advance fed eral court order in each specific case of wiretapping. The Keating bill was approved unanimously by the subcommittee but has S'nce been held up in the full committee at Brownoll's re quest. The subcommittee has agreed to hoar Brownell arcue his case again, and Keating told newsmen was told Tuesday Erwin L. Shaver, executive di rector of 'veekday religious educa tion for the council, estimated 2 V4 to 3 mil'ion children were being released from public schools for an hour or more each week to get religious education. Shaver submitted a report to the iivision ot Christian Education of the National Council, major prot estant and orthodox interdenomina views in an interview with a re porter. "Now that the courts have told us it's perfectly legal to have a child excused from school for any religious need, our program of weekday religious education will pass from the limelight," he said. But. he said, there was no ques tion "weekday church schools are growing in number and strength. ' Of the 2 14 to 3 million children, mostly in the lower grades, about 25 per cent have no formal relig ious affiliation, although over half are nominally Protestant, nearly half are Catholic and a few are Jews. Nearly one-third of the un affiliated children are led to a house of prayer through the re ligious education program, Shaver said. "We are teaching the Bible and its application to personal and so cial living," the religious leader said. "We are increasing the re ligious knowledge of children. We are trying to make them aware that religion is a part of life and education. Anti-Pickefing Law Was Passed Despite Warning Of Governor Airmen Discuss Experiences Of Plane Disaster ANCHORAGE.

Paul Patter on and the legislature's leading constitutional lawyers aren't a bit surprised that Circuit Judge Orval J. Millard of Grants Pass ruled a week ago that Section 17 of the 1593 anti-picketing law is unconsti tutional. Gov Patterson, Sen. Paul Ged des, Roscburg, chairman of the Senate Law Committee and the Legislature's, leading ,consitutional lawyer, and some other legislative lawyers warned that Section 17 violates the constitutional guaran tee of free speech. But the Legislature didn't listen. Of course, Judge Millard prob ably won't have the last word, as the State Supreme Court likely will hear the case on appeal. But Judge Millard's decision was based on opinions of both the U. S. and State Supreme Courts. Judge Millard kicked out Section 17 because "broad and sweeping prohibitions against peaceful pick eting cannot be sustained," which is what the higher courts have been saying all along. The 1953 anti-picketing bill was sponsored by groups of small em ployers. It was written by the Sen ate Labor and Industries Commit tee. The heart of the bill was Section 1C, which says labor unions can't picket in order to force workers to join a union. Judge Millard didn t throw out Section 16. After the Senate committee ap proved the bill, it was mimeo graphed, as it was too late in the session to have it printed. This mimeographed version, however, contained Section 17, which never was approved by the committee at any meeting. Section 17 says it's illegal for a union to picket unless the union has been certified or is recognized as the bargaining agent of a sub stantial number of the workers. Both houses passed the bill in the closing hours of the session, when all the legislators were in a hurry to get home. Section 17 apparently was insert ed in the bill after the commit tee's final meeting. The majority of the committee put it there, and the minority opponents were angry, because they didn't know Section 17 was in it until the bill reached the Senate floor. Gov. Patterson didn't like any Dart of the bill. He proposed mere ly that there be a 15-day waiting period before strikes could start, When he announced his opposition, the employer lobbyists and some of the legislators were angry. The governor, Geddes and some of the other lawyers reminded mat in 1940. the Oregon Supreme Court threw out another anti-picketing law. That law, voted by the people in 1933, said no union could picxet unless there is a bona fide labor dispute between an employer and a majority of his employes. In that 1940 case, the high court said such a broad ban on picketing violated free speech, which is about what Judge Millard said last week. When Gov. Patterson signed the 1953 bill, he said he didn't like it. But he explained that he signed it because he wanted a court test, so that the 1955 Legislature would know for sure just what picketing can be restricted. Atty. Gen. Robert Y. Thornton must have been surprised by Judge Millard's opinion. Before the governor signed the bill, Thornton ruled that the bill was constitu tional. The Legislature is being criti cized for putting Section 17 into the law. Most of the criticism is that the Legislature shouldn't con sider such an important bill in the final log jam that always develops in the last hours of a session. The bill was jammed through both houses in the final hours, even though the subject had been before the Legislature for almost all of its 100-day session. Charles A. Sprague, Salem pub lisher and former governor, also has a caustic comment. He says that the attorneys for the employ ers might not be as capable as the labor lawyers. The employer lawyers, Sprague says, should have known Section 17 is unconstitutional. SMALLPOX KILLS SO SAIGON, Indochina OB A smallpox epidemic has claimed at least 50 lives in Saigon. Author ities are pressing a campaign for vaccination of the population. Cordon Confirms Klamath Air Base Proposed Plans WASHINGTON I Sen. Cordon (R-Ore) said Tuesday the Air Force will establish an air base in the Klamath Falls, Ore., area. He said he had been advised by the Air Force that the base is one of several being established to meet the 137-wing program. Cordon said the Air Force an. nouncement contained no details as to the size of the base nor of the expenditure to be involved. Money for it and other contem plated under the expansion pro. gram is contained in the budget re quests already before Congress for the year beginning July 1. The present Klamath Falls air port, built by the Navy during World War II. covers some 800 acres and more land is available . for expansion. The Air Force has been negotiating with the city for its use for some time. At present there are'no jet interceptor bases between Portland and Hamilton Field, Calif.
