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

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

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.

By PAUL W. HARVEY JR.
SALEM ( Gov. 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.

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
