WASHINGTON, 0. a
SEVERAL DAYS of heated de
bate have taken place in the
House on proposed civil rights
legislation. The bill would set
up a civil rights commission to
investigate complaints that citi
zens are being deprived of their
right to vote, or that they are
being subjected to economic
pressure because of their race,
color, religion, national origin or
sex. It also proposes changes in
the civil rights laws and in the
legal procedure in some of these
cases.
Ewn many supporters of civil
rights feel that this bill as ori
ginally presented was a very
poorly drawn up piece of legis
lation, containing very broad and
indefinite grants of power to the
Federal agencies concerned. Num
erous amendments have been
proposed to it and several adopt

Phone calls go "piggy-back" riding
Pretty soon now, many local telephone calls are going to start
riding "piggy-back." They'll go one on top the other, as many
as four separate calls at the same time on the same telephone
line. This means one line will do the work of four. And, of
course, that means more and better service to more people. For
many years, "piggy-back" systems have been speeding your
long distance calls. Now we've discovered how to use the same
kind of equipment for local calls. This is an example of how
telephone people work to develop new and better equipment.
The men and women of Pacific Telephone work to make your
telephone more useful every day.
Don't miss the fun . . .
Telephone ahead for reservations!

Is your home growing up?
Your home probably started out with a few basic things, in
cluding a telephone. Over the years you've added things a
new set of china, nn easy chair,
a backyard fence. Well, did you
ever stop to think that you can
add to your telephone conven
ience, too : extension phones
in color, neat spring cords,
portable phones to name Just
a few. You'll be surprised how
much more convenient your
service can be at a very low
cost. Just call your telephone
business office now and ask
about complete telephone ar

rivil riehts legislation has no
chance of passing the Senate this
year, regardless of House action
on its bill.
THE HELLS CANYON BILL to
authorize construction of a fede
ral dam was defeated by the
Senate by a vote of 51 to 41.
The Senate action has killed the
bill for this year.
a federal nower commission,
lirpnsp had previously been is-1
sued to the Idaho Power Company j
to build three dams in me Hens
Canyon area. Construction work
at the site of the first of these
has been underway for several
months.
In the course of Senate debate
on Hells Canyon, figures were
presented to show that the single
federal dam would develop 785,
000 kilowatts of power, compared
to 767,000 kilowatts by tne tnree
dams.
THE SENATE finally passed
the Social Security amendments
bill. This legislation proposes
to extend Social Security pay
ments to the disabled at age of
50. These payments would be
financed by an additional pay
roll tax of y4 to be paid by the
emnlovep and V to be paid by
the employer. It would also make
women eligible for Social becur
ity at age 62, at a slightly lower
rate than what they would get If
they wait until age 65 to retire.
The House had passed the Social
Security bill last year ana i
voted for it.
Differences between the ver
sions of the bill as passed by
the Senate and the House must
be resolved before this legislation
can be sent to the President for
his signature.

on it this year.

SUMMERTIME IS PICNIC TIME. Family picnics are fun, but
there are times when the small fry like to go off on junkets of
their own. Whether it is an outing with a best friend or just a
walk alone through country meadows, youngsters love the feel
ing of independence a solo trip gives them.
This feeling of independence can be fostered, too, by letting
the kids make their own picnic lunches. A handy can of inex
pensive, high protein sardines from Maine 'provides a hearty
sandwich which the youngster can make herself. The keyless
quarter can opens easily and smoothly and there is no danger
of cutting little fingers. The young chef can add sliced hard
cooked eggs or cheese if she wishes, or just a dab of mayonnaise.
An apple, a handful of cookies, and the simple meal is complete.

PRESIDENT EISENHOWER ve

to a restriction in the bill on the
use of funds for Talos guided mis

vided that funds for them could
not be spent until the defense

Mr. Eisenhower stated that if
