Legal Eavesdropping
"A microphone is legal, wiretapping-it not,"
columnist Drew Pearson is saying in . justifying
his assistant's association with the "bugging" of
a Washington hotel room adjoining a' suite oc
cupied by representatives of Bernard Goldfine.
And a Washington policeman is quoted as saying
no District of Columbia law was violated.
Whatever the ethics of the situation, Pearson
appears to be right about the law. Congress in
1956 did outlaw eavesdropping on the delibera
tions of federal juries. But otherwise little action
has been taken, despite a House Judiciary com
mittee pledge in that year to draft nevy and com
prehensive legislation to govern interception of
communications.
The U. S. Supreme Court has been strict in
ruling out evidence obtained by wiretapping, but
it has been lenient about admitting evidence in
federal courts gained by other mechanical eaves
dropping methods. The High Court has limited
Sec. 605 of the Federal Communications act to
the tapping of telephone lines.
This is the provision that: "No person not be
ing authorized by the sender shall intercept any
communication and divulge or publish the exis
tence, contents, substance, purport, effect or
meaning of such communcation to any person
. . . " The Supreme Court has repeatedly ruled
that the use of wiretap information as evidence
in federal court constitutes "divulgence" and
hence is prohibited.
THE Supreme Court
rA A n-rk rr r4-o iv rA
wiretaps even if the taps are authorized by state
law is not admissible in federal courts. This op
inionin the vase of Benanti v. New York cast
so. much doubt on the legality of wiretaps by the
states that Sen. John L. McClellan (D-Ark.), and
several colleagues introduced a bill to exempt
state wiretaps from the
That measure is still
ate Interstate and Foreign Commerce committee.
Meantime, a House Judiciary Subcommittee on
May 14 approved a bill to permit the use of wire
tap evidence in federal court cases involving es
pionage, treason, subversion, or kidnaping. The
measure, sponsored by Chairman Emanuel Cel
ler (D-N.Y.), of the full Judiciary committee,
would require federal officials to obtain a court
order to tap wires in such cases.
The Senate Judiciary committee has a similar
bill requiring the permission of the Attorney Gen
eral rather than a court order. Action on these
measures this late in the session would appear
unlikely unless the latest disclosures in the, Gold-fine-Pearson
affair focus new attention on the
whole matter of intercepting communcations.
f OV. Averell Harriman of New York on April
14 signed two bills that make "bugging"
harder for law enforcement officials in that state.
One requires a court order for electronic eaves
dropping. The other waives the court order re
quirement for the first 24 hours of "hot pursuit"
of a suspect.
As for wiretapping, FBI Director J. Edgar
Hoover on May 18 disclosed that the Bureau was
operating 90 wiretaps around the country. In
April 1955, Hoover told the House Judiciary sub
committee the FBI had never tapped more than
200 telephone lines at any one time. E.R.R.
New Passport Control Bill
Congress didn't say you could act on passports
as you thought Congress said you could, is in ef
fect what the Supreme Court, by 5 to 4, told the
State Department on June 16 last. So the Senate
Foreign Relations committee opened hearings
Monday on bills to spell out, now, just why and
how the department is to withhold them.
Congress did prescribe in the past, the Court
majority agreed, that passports should or could
be denied on such grounds as Communist party
membership, intent to further Communism at
home or abroad or otherwise injure the United
States. But this prescription was limited to time
of war or a national emergency now officially
at an end.
-v
ONGRESS intended no such limitation, insist-
ed the minority Clark, Burton, Harlan,
Whittaker, JJ. All the same, the minority did
agree with the majority that freedom of travel is
a "part of our heritage," going back to Magna
Carta. " - ,;"
For. that matter, the government also,-went
along with that. Majority, minority, and govern
ment agreed too, that due process of law' must
be observed, in both form and substance, in with
holding passports. In disagreeing on what the
laws meant, both majority and minority pointed
ly bypassed the larger issue of how far and under
what circumstances the inherent right to a pass
port could be restricted constitutionally.
An aroused Congress will enact either his bill
(HR 12989) or some other on passport restric
tion, predicts chairman Francis E. Walter (D-Pa.)
of the House Un-American Activities committee.
Any such bill enacted, implies the June 16 decis
ion, will have to run a stiff constitutional gantlet.

SE? THE DONTiflK? TOE HORSE THAT I CANT pIDB
Big Game Political Hunt by
Lonq Resembles Adams Case
By LYLE C. WILSON
United Press International
Washington (UPI) To
match the big game political
hunt in which presidential
assistant Sherman Adams is
the unhappy
quarry, it is
necessary to
go back near
ly 25 years to
the era f the
Kingfish, the
late Sen. Huey
Pierce Long.
The year
was 1935 -and
Lyie c. wiison the, man for
whom the Kingfish went
hunting was James A. Farley,
chairman of the Democratic
National committee and post
master general in Franklin
D. Roosevelt's cabinet.
The similarity between the
Adams and Farley hunts is
limited strictly to the fact that
each of the hunted was so big
in the administration in
which he served that disgrace
might well ruin a President
and disrupt a party.
The ruin of FDR and suffo
cation of the New Deal party,
then a-borning, was precisely
what Huey had in mind. He
was planning soon to run for
President himself, and need
ed to cut FDR and the New
Deal down to size.
The Biggest Rooster
Long's own account of the
inspiration of his campaign
was in mucn - simpler lan
guage. After his baseless
charges had been refuted and
rejected by the Senate, Long
remarked:
"Jim was the biggest roost
er in the yard, and I thought
if I could break his legs, the
rest would be easy."
Easy it might have been,
too, m those days of bleak
depression for Long to have
parlayed his every-man- a-
king share-the-wealth bally
hoo into a position for him
self of great political power.
He already possessed millions
of followers including much
of the lunatic fringe.
The Kingfish's strategy
failed because there were no
strikes on Farley, neither
questionable gifts nor free
lodgings, nor anything else.
The Senate cleared Farley
after committee consideration
of the charges and a written
response by Farley to every
question Long had raised.
Good Political Theory
But, if Long's strategy
failed, his political thinking
was pretty good. If he had
brought Farley down on
charges- of corruption, or
even of gross imprudence,
much of . the prestige of the
Roosevelt administration and
of the President himself
might well have gone down
with the postmaster general
and party chairman. Farley

There is no doubt, either,
that' Adams is the biggest
rooster in the Eisenhower ad
ministration, next, of course,
to DDE. If Farley's disgrace
would have shorn FDR and
his administration of its pres
tige, so Adams' disgrace
would shear the Eisenhower

vary, of course, with time and

Western Hemisphere note:
Our neighbor across the Rio
Grande held a presidential
election Sunday. There were
four candidates. The generally
anticipated winner (no elec
tion returns are available as
this is written) is Adolfo Lo
pez Mateos. He is the candi
date of Mexico's dominant
party, which hasn't lost an
election in 40 years.
He is an attorney who work
ed up through a succession of
congressional and diplomatic
posts to become minister of
labor under President Cortin
es, the incumbent who is re
tiring.
"lYflATEOS' principal oppon
ent is Luis Alvarez, who
is the candidate of Mexico's
principal opposition party. He
is a successful textile indus
trialist from the border state
of Chiauhau. He was born in
Juarez, went to high school
in El Paso and attended the
University of Texas.
He is expected to come in
second iri the running, but
isn't given much chance of
election.
CANDIDATE No. 3 is Miguel
Mendoza Lopez, who is
running on the communist
ticket. The commies were un
able to muster enough signa
tures to get his name on the
ballot, so he is running as a
write-in candidate.
He concedes he hasn't much
chance, and explains is this
way: "I would make a better
showing in the election if
more of my followers knew
how to write."
rpHE list is completed by Leo--
nardo Garcia Perez, who
won the nomination of the mi

promise to cure the nation's
economic ills and boost the
value of the peso from eight
cents to a dollar.

Neuberger Answered
To the Editor: Again, it is
my pleasure to clarify" a few
of the facts relative to recip
rocal trade and Japanese ply
wood imports. I do so in view
of Sen. Neuberger's recent let
ter published in Portland and
several 4th Congressional Dis
trict newspapers in which he
implied that the placing of
sufficient quotas on foreign
plywood imports to permit
our industry to survive and to
maintain our wage structure,
as I have suggested, is not in
accordance with the princi
ples of reciprocal trade.
Presentation of only one as
pect of any problem, as Sen.
Neuberger has done, gives a
most distorted picture of it,
even though the part pre
sented may essentially be cor
rect. As the Senator suggests,

HY this dissertation on a
Mexican election?
It's like this:
Mexico is the most hopeful
nation of Latin America. By
all the rules of history, she
has every reason to HATE us
with an enduring hatred. We
forced upon her a WAR OF
CONQUEST. We took from
her vast areas of territory. We
took this territory by FORCE
OF ARMS. . :
Somewhat more than a half
century later, we took advan
tage of a bandit foray across
the Rio Grande (by a brutal
character named Pancho Vil
la) and sent a punitive mili
tary expedition clear to Vera
Cruz. A similar foray by the
French a century and a. quar
ter ago created the situation
that is causing France's pres
ent troubles in Algeria. r
WHY are our present rela
tions with . Mexico good
and getting better?
One reason is that Ameri
cans in increasing numbers
are flowing into Mexico, as
tourists. These tourists . are
REAL Americans. They aren't,
too snooty. They don't - sneer
at Mexicans. They are gen
uinely interested in them
especially in the younger gen
eration Mexicans who are
coming up through Mexico's
schools. These kids' are smart
as tacks and Americans tend
to adore them.
We haven't ' poured too
much FOREIGN AID onto
Mexico. We've TRADED with
her instead of shelling, out
alms and playing Lady Boun
tiful. As a result, our rela
tions with Mexico and Mexi
cans are ; improving steadily.
If we could apply the same
wise policies to the rest of
Latin America, the Western
Hemisphere could be built
into the happiest and most
prosperous area in the world, t

some cZ the purposes of the
reciprocal trade law are to en
courage foreign trade; to min
imize quotas; and to grant im
port concessions to foreign na
tions. However, he completely
overlooks and neglects to tell
you of another important pro
vision of the law, which, as he
says, is supported "by a bi
partisan group of eminent
Americans including President
Eisenhower, ex-president Tru
man and Adlai e; Stevenson."
It is a part of the recipocal
trade program, which the Sen
ator recently and wisely voted
to continue in force. I refer to
that part of the law which
provides protection for Amer
ican industry in situations
like the excessive imports of
Japanese plywood.
Specifically, Sec. 1364 "of
Title 19," U. S. Code Annotat
ed, provides for an investiga
tion and hearing , to be con
ducted by the Tariff Commis
sion upon the request of either
House or Congress or of either
of two congressional commit
tees or of other designated
persons, when it appears that
excessive imports of any com
modity are adversely affecting
our own industries. The law
then provides, and I quote:
"Should the Tariff Commis
sion find, as a result of its in
vestigation and hearings, that
a product. . .is being imported
in such increased quantities. . .
as to cause or threaten erious
injury to the domestic indus
try producing like or directly
competitive products, it shall
recommend to the president
the. . .establishment of import
quotas, to the extent and for
the time necessary to prevent
or remedy such injury."
When needed for the protec
tion of our own standards of
living and basic industries,
quotas are important to the
proper operation of reciprocal
trade. For example, a limita
tion on coffee imports is spe
cifically written into the law.
Oil imports form another ex
ample. A headline in the Ore
gonian on July 5, 1958, reads
"Ike Changes Oil Quotas." Tfie
article then explains the
changes in these particular
import quotas.
As I have previously point
ed out, there are quotas by di
rect legislation as well as
those fixed by the administra
tion under the reciprocal trade
law. The Senator quotes an
administration official to the
effect that quotas by direct
legislation are not in accord
ance with the spirit of recip
rocal trade. With this I agree.
The Senator fails to point out,
however, that the fixing of
quotas by the. administration
unaer tne law is actually a
part of reciprocal trade, and is
the preferred method of pro
viding protection to our own
industries, when needed. '
In fact, the reciprocal trade
law contemplates that when
ever imports endanger any
one of our(own industries, our
Senators 'and Congressmen
may start the machinery to
bring that matter to the at
tention of the" administration,
so that protective quotas can
&e imposed without passing a
new law.
In view of the fact that some
of those who represent us in
Congress go to great lengths
to justify their stand that the
ever increasing Japanese ply
wood imports (52 times more
in'1957 than in 1951) do not
compete with our own Oregon
industry, it is not surprising
that some administrative of
ficials may not now favor
quotas. : v
- It seems to me that our rep
resentatives should heed those
who are in a position to know
the . facts, "particularly those
who are affected by these im-ports--the.
various labor "un
ions, which; speak- for the
affected workmen, and the
Douglas Fir Plywood Associ
ation, which agrees with those
unions and says "the great
volume of imported plywood
has had a highly detrimental
effect on domestic production
and employment."
Instead of ; opposing at
tempts of others in Congress
to correct this situation, our ,
Congressmen either should
support them or strongly move
under the prpvisions of the
existing reciprocal trade law
to require the investigation
and hearings which will af
ford our workmen and indus
ty an opportunity to be heard
on the matter and determine
whether they are right or

Answers Article
To the Editor: This is - an
answer to the article that ap
peared in Mail Tribune a
short time back, under the
heading "Prophecy and Gen
ealogy.". God has demanded that his
people test those that profess
to be His prophets. (1 John
4:1; 1 Thess. 5:21; Rev. 2.2.)
Since false prophets do exist
we must prove all things to
try those who profess to speak
for God. The missionaries of
Joseph . Smith compass land
and sea to make proselytes.
They use every instrument at
their means to' propagate to
the public the stories that or
iginated in the minds of Joe
Smith and his associates. It is
a challenge to us either to ac
cept or denounce what is ad
vocated by Mormonism. 0
John F. Peterson, a Mor
mon, says, "Ouy family tree
has become one of the signs
of our time." From this sign
he goes on in his theory to
try to prove that we are liv
ing in the last days. He says.
"the compiling of family his
tories and genealogies, which
is in direct fulfillment of Bib
lical predictions given by the
Saviour and His prophets." He
uses Malachi 4:5-6, to support
his theory. He goes on to say
that Elijah appeared to Joseph
amnn in iviruana, umo, on
April 3, 1836, in fulfillment
of this passage of scripture
Mr. Peterson in his zeal to
support the divine origin' of
Mormonism erred in the ap
plication of Malachi 4:5-6. If
Elijah appeared to Joe Smith
in Kirtland, Ohio, in 1836 he
must have been asleep or
have forgotten these passages
of scripture. "And the disci
ples asked him, saying, Why
then say the scribes that Elijah
must first come? And he an
swered and said, Elijah in
deed cometh, and shall re
store all things: but I say unto
you, that Elijah is come al
ready, and they knew him
not, but did unto him whatso
ever they would." (Matt. 17:-10-12).
; In the Gospel of Luke 1:16
17, we find the divine Inter
pretation of Malachi 4:5-6.
Note, it was John the "Baptist
that went, " . . . before his
face in Xhe spirit and power
of Elijah " Note, the pur
pose, of John's mission, to pre
pare a people for the Lord,
not to run down genealogies
to be a good Mormon.- Mor
monism is not the only sect
that makes a play of the fam
ily history, we find that the
Jews did it in the time of
Christ. I wonder if the Mor
mons are trying to find out
if they are all related to Brig-
ham Young, . I understand he
had ' a large number, of chil-.
dren. -' . . . '
The Bible does speak to us
saying that we are, " . ." .
neither to give heed to fables
or endless genealogies, which
minister questionings , . . "

of nine American Army men

Tito appears to be making
a strong bid to persuade Nas

mistake by maintaining close
relations with Russia.
Tito and Nasser both seem
to aim at strengthening their
relations with Greece. There
is talk of a possible Yugoslav-UAR-Greek

Khrushchev evidently re-.
garded the visit as necessary.
To make it, he had to ask
Chancellor Julius Raab of
Austria to postpone his visit
to Russia, which had been set
for mid-July. v
Just what Khrushchev and
Ulbricht can cook up against
Tito is hard to figure out. The
Kremlin has vainly tried
every means available to
bring him in line.
But Khrushchev might
easily use East Germany as
a weapon against Polish Com-
munist leader Gomulka. -
Not only is Poland depend
ant on Russia for the raw ma
terials which feed its indust-(
ries, but Poland is sandwich
ed between Russia and East
Germany. Khrushchev's , visit
may serve as a reminder that
Poland holds a large area of
German territory and that if
Russia gave the word, Poland
would have to give it up.
