Enforcement Of California
Law Requiring Loyalty
Oaths Barred By High Court
WASHINGTON (AC) The Su
preme Court barred Monday the
enforcement of a California law
requiring non-Communist oaths to
obtain tax exemptions.
The court said California's pres
ent procedure violates the due
process clause of the 14th Amend
ment by placing the burden of
proof upon taxpayers.
The effect is to let the law stand,
but to bar its enforcement unless
California changes its procedures
to put on the state the burden of
showing disqualification for tax
exemption. 1
The court's vote was 7-1. Justice
Brennan delivered two majority
opinions, and Justice Clark wrote;
two dissents. Chief Justice Vtar-j
ren disqualified himself from the
cases.
Rules On Two Appeals
The court ruled on two appeals.;
One involved a California require
ment for a loyalty oath by church
officials who wished to obtain lax
cxeplion for their edifices. I
The other appeal was filed by I
two war veterans who challenged!
Calitornia's refusal to give them'
standard veterans' property taxi
exemptions because llicy refused
to sign loyalty oaths.
A 1952 amendment to the Cali
fornia Constitution says no person I
who advocates overthrow of
state or federal government, or
who advocates support of a for
eign government in event of war,
may receive any exemption from
state, city or other local lax.
A 1953 law enforced the amend
ment by Belting up the loyalty
oath requirement. It applied to all
individuals and non-profit organi
zations claiming lax exemption.

Rackets Probers
Seek To Uncover
Underworld Gang
WASHINGTON un Senate
rackets probers set out today to
show that a powerful underworld
syndicate is fattening on helpless
businesses and labor unions.
Chairman John L. McClollan
(U-Ark) and counsel l(ober( F.
Kennedy of (he special investigat
ing committee pictured the probe
as aimed at unmasking schemes
in which they said:
1. Organized racketeers, operat
ing behind respectable fronts, in
filtrate and make collusive labor
contract deals with labor unions,
thus gaining unfair advantage over
legitimate competitors.
2. Racketeers quietly muscle in
on businesses which they use as
fronts, pouring into them profits
from narcotics and gambline. The
objectives here arc to conceal un
lawful sources of this income and
to get a financial edge over com
peting firms.
Kennedy told a news conference:
"There is no question that there
is an underworld organization that
has leadership, that has authority,
and that takes aclion againsl those
who challenge it. Some call it the
Mafia, some call it the syndicate. "
McClellan said the hearings will
show a continuing tie between such
a syndicate and gangster Charles
(Lucky) Luciane, who was deport
ed to Kaly.

Macmillan Say
They're In Accord
PARIS (AP) French Pre
mier Charles de Gaulle and Brit
ish Prime Minister Macmillan de
clared Monday they have reached
an understanding for close co
operation..
A joint communique issued at
the end of two days of talks said
the two leaders were in complete
accord on the necessity to defend
the Free World.
De Gaulle and Macmillan "re
newed the bonds of friendship and
esteem" forged 15 years ago when
they were in Algeria working to
gether to defeat the Nazis, tne
communique said.
The two chiefs of government
held their discussions at De
Gaulle's office.
Both delegations emphasized
that the talks were not negotia
tions but simply an exchange of
views between De Gaulle ana
Macmillan.
They did aEree in lengthy talks
over the dinner table and under
the elms of the French Premier's
garden that it was vital to pre
serve the independence of Leb
anon and prevent infiltration of
outside Arab and Communist in
fluences into that Middle East
country.
McMillan arrived by plane Sun
day for the brief visit. Sources
close to the Briton said the talks
went very well.
De Gaulle, it was learned,
stressed France's desire to join
the United States, Britain and the
Soviet Union as an atomic power.
Macmillan reportedly replied that
the British thoroughly appreciated
this desire, but added the British
consider it "preferable to keep the
atomic club as small as possible."
Macmillan went on to say there
were dangers in excessive testing
of nuclear weapons.
British Columbia
Workers Favor
Strike Action
VANCOUVER, B.C. (AP) In
complete returns from 121 of 200
operations indicated about 65 per
cent of British Columbia coast
loggers who participated in a government-supervised
vote Friday
favored strike action.
In a ballot conducted last week
by the International Woodworkers
of America, 87 per cent voted to
strike.
The union, which has about 28,
000 members in eight coast locals,
rejected a majority conciliation
board report calling for no wage
increase this year. It is asking a
10 per cent wage boost, recom
mended by its representative on
the board.
Present base rale is $1.72 an
hour.
Of the camps from which gov
ernment ballots had been counted,
70 voted in favor of a strike and
45 against.
Under British Columbia labor
laws, only plants which voted for
the strike could be required by
the union to quit work.
The counting was expected to
be completed Saturday.

U. S. Ending Year
Facing Big Deficit;
Amount Not Known
WASHINGTON 1 - For Uncle
Sam, tonight is New Year's Eve.
He won't be celebrating, though,
because the new fiscal year will
carry him deeper into debt than
ever before.
ited ink spending caused by the
business recession and the Soviet
scientific-military menace threat
ens a fiscal 1959 deficit of about
11 billion dollars possibly closer
to 12 billion. That is more than at
any time since World War II.
The national debt is sure to push
high of $280,821,000,000.
The legal debt limit now is 280
billion dollars. The Eisenhower ad
ministration soon will ask Con
gress to boost that ceiling, prob
ably by about 10 billion dollars.
The 1958 bookkeeping year which
ends today also will be marred by
a hefty deficit. Officials predict
spending will top income by 24
billion to 3-billion dollars.
The exact size of the 1958 deficit,
which comes after two straight
years of balanced budgets, won't
be known for a couple of weeks.
Latest figures, as of the middle
of last week, showed the national
debt at close to 276 billion dollars.
The government then had a cash
balance of about 10 billion dollars,
a seasonal bulge that will be re
duced speedily.
Secretary of the Treasury Ander
son is known to feel the govern
ment should always have enough
cash available to pay its expenses
for two or three weeks. At the
present spending rate, that means
a total of 3 to 4V4 billion dollars.

Volunteer Guard
Prevents Bombing
BIRMINGHAM WI A volun
teer guard saved the church of a
Negro integration leader from de
struction early Sunday when he
moved a dynamite bomb away
from the building moments vefore
it exploded.
The Rev. F. L. Shuttleworth said
the bomb would have demolished
his Bethel Baptist Church had it
not been for the "herioc deed"
of Will Hall.
Hall, a 62-year-old retired coal
miner. Is one of six volunteers who
have guarded the church each Sat
urday night since it and Shuttle
worth's adjoining home were heav
ily damaged by bombing Dec. 25,
1956.
The Negro minister said Hall,
upon discovering a smoking can
containing dynamite against a wall
of the church, moved it to the edge
of the street 30 feet away about
a minute before the blast. A car
load of white men reportedly was
seen passing shortly before the
bomb was found.
Steelworkers Wage Hike
To Affect All America
PITTSBURGH ufl Basic steel
workers receive a wage increase
Tuesday that likely will be fell
by most Americans before too long.
The increase is the final install
ment in a three-year contract.
The union estimates the package
boost at 13.2 cents hourly, the
companies at 16 cents. Steelwork
ers now earn about $2.77 hourly.
I'SW members will also receive
a 4-cent hourly raise figured on a
rise on the government's cost-of-living
index.
Steelmakers, who had hoped the
union would forgo the final in
crease, estimate the boost will
add up (o 25 cents hourly to the
cost of production.
All are agreed an increase in
the price of steel will be neces
sary. None of the major producers
has said just how much.

Pearson No Longer
Wants Sales Tax
For Education Only
PORTLAND (AP) A year ago
slate Sen. Walter J. Pearson (D
Portland) proposed a sales tax for
education. He no longer believes
in that.
Pearson, chairman of the legis
lative interim committee studying
the state's tax structure, said Sat
urday he thinks now that if a
sales tax were adopted as a form
of property relief, all of the
money should be returned to the
counties to give direct reduction
in property taxes.
His original proposal, made last
year at a committee meeting in
Eugene, would give schools too
much money, he said in explain
ing his changed position. He said
"school people had to think up new
ways to spend money", in consid
ering what they would do with
sales tax receipts.
He said he agrees that some
thing must be done to get more
money for schools as costs of edu
cation mount. But the best way
may be direct county property tax
relief, he said.
i He added that if this were done
through turning sales tax monev
back to counties, it would be
necessary to impose a limitation
on either millage or assessments
"so that property taxes . . . would
not bounce back up again.
