(p) Hullng that It does not sppear that the plaln tlffa had been deprived of their con stitutional rights, Federal Judge John H. McNary Thursday dented a motion for a temporary restraining order set ting aside the 1933 Oregon grazing lsw. Residents of Idaho had filed action to authorize them to graze their sheep In the Jordsn valley dlatrlct of east ern Oregon. They contended the Ore gon law forbidding them access to these sanges was unconstitutional. . Judge MoNary, explaining that the facts must ultimately be decided by a statutory court of three Judges, stated that "It appears to this court that the legislature of the state of Oregon acted within the domain of its police power In passing the graz ing act. and the provisions adopted for lta enforcement were necessary to the accomplishment of ItB purpose, and that plaintiffs have not been de prived of their constitutional rights." The action was brought by Vin cent Mendlola, John Mendlola and John Archbal. .'

This picture tells better than words the merit of your Lucky Strike. Luckies use only the center leaves. Not the top leaves, because those re under-developed not ripe. Not the bottom leaves, because those are inferior in quality they grow cloee to the ground and are tough, coarse and always sandy. The center leaves are the mildest leaves, the finest in quality. These center leaves are cut into Iong,even strands and are fully packed into each and every Lucky givingyou a ciga rette that is always round, firm, completely filled no loose ends. Is it any wonder that Luckies are so truly mild and smooth? And in addition.you know, "It's toasted" for throat protection, for finer taste.
