NATIONAL
Those "Blue" Laws
During its next term, which opens in Oc
tober, the United states bupreme (Jourt will con
sider several cases, all dealing with the consti
tutionality of the so-called Sunday closing laws
now in lorce m a number or states.
It has been 60 years
this or any related question before it for decision.
It has refused to consider a number of appeals,
lor tne reason that no
was apparent.
But in recent months
all parts of the country,
court a valid justification for considering the
matter. . -
MO ONE, we presume, will argue with a state
11 law, based on the health and welfare of the
people, which requires that each worker have one
day m seven free from
But there is a considerable Quarrel with the
theory that this day must, through legislation,

laws, and as such are
constitutional proviso that "Congress shall make
no law respecting an establishment of religion,
or prohibiting the free exercise thereof ...
DY CUSTOM and tradition, Sunday is a work
" free day.
But in today's complex society, there are many
people who must work that day to keep essential
services functioning. They include police officers,
firemen, gasoline station attendants, telephone
operators, ainine employees, taxi drivers, hotel
personnel, radio announcers and so on.
The justification for
who advocate compulsory
mey are "essential."
' Well what's essential? Drutrs? Food? Cloth-
ing? Automobiles? Hardware? And who draws
the line? (In Virginia, it is illegal to sell on Sun
day any food which needs cooking except that
state s iamous bmithlield hams. )
THERE'S an added factor one of religion and
basic justice.
Say a store is operated by a devout Seventh
day Adventist, who observes Saturday as his Sab
bath. He keeps his shop closed Saturday as a
matter of religious conscience. Why, then, should
he be' required to keep it closed Sunday too,
simply because that is someone else's holy day?
The same applies to Jews and Seventh-day
Baptists.
And there are plenty of good, moral, honest
and reputable people around whose religious con
victions do not jibe with those of any organized
church. If they have no religious scruples against
jsunoay work, why should they be penalized be
cause others do?
A WRITER in the current issue of "Liberty"
puts it this way: i
"Sunday blue laws are anti-Christian and anti
American in that they reduce to the status of second
class citizens
"1. Ail those who for one religious reason or
another choose to worship on a day other than Sunday.
"2. .All those who for one reason or another choose
not to worship on any day at all.
"3. All these who for ' reasons they are not re
quired to disclose to anyone else belong to Sunday
keeping churches, but attend their churches infre
quently, irregularly, or not all all.
"It is this large and unvocal majority of the
population of the United States who are told by the.
well-organized and vocal minority that having one day
of the week for rest, relaxation, and family together
ness, et cetera, is a 'social necessity'."
Such a day undoubtedly is a "social neces
sity," but it needn't be Sunday not by law, any
way. E.A. r
There Are No Majorities
Note that the three
the quotation above, taken together, are listed
as a majority.
This is true, for organized, Sundaykeeping,
churchgoing people in this nation are in a minority.
But it is also true that there is no such thing
as a true majority. It will also be noted that the
"majority", claimed above is in truth a group of
iiimuiiues, ana uecome

If we ever forget this, and insist on a deaden
ing conformity of the majority, we're done as
a vigorous, progressive, dynamic nation.
Each person who reads this is a member of
one or more minorities, whether they be political,
religious, temporal, occupational, racial, or a
dozen other classifications.
This is the reason why the United States Con
situtional guarantees protecting the rights of the
minorities are so important.

Rational Life
To the Editor: This writer
is strictly in accord with the
editor's attitude regarding
health insurance for the aged.
At the present time there is
deplorable situation in Ore
gon relative to the attitude
the state welfare organization
takes toward the people on
welfare who become ill. It
has come to the attention of
this writer of numerous oc
casions where the welfare or
ganization has refused to pay
for drugs and physician's
service on a technicality.
We have heard that man
does not live by bread alone.
But welfare should be wel
fare and nothing less. And
man cannot live on technique
alone unless it is an elaborate
technique. That technique
should include complete
health service.
Most people that seek wel
fare do so as a last resort.
They are not bums as the
welfare bureau is so prone to
imply. To apply for welfare
is to face an inquisition sav
oring of the middle ages. It is
a harrowing ordeal to apply
for benefits from the state
welfare bureau. (Death where
is thy sting?)
It seems the purpose of our
lawmakers is to strip the aged
and infirm of the last vestige
of dignity and reduce them
to the status of a pauper and
moral leper. People that have
always made their way with
hard work and honest deal
ing resent being looked upon
as chislers and mendicants.
However, lawmakers seem to
lack the touch of tact and
too often those delegated to
carry out the edicts of the
lawmakers are no less crude.
That .is understandable, for
the agent has no cultural ax
to grind, and at the same time
cannot give what is not po-
sessed.
At this juncture we harken
to our way of life and our
cultural environment. For as
we live there is no induce
ment to develop the best that
is in us. but to emphasize
the suspicion and greed that
we must be on guard against.
Otherwise we ourselves be
come the victims of avarice
and chicanery that greets us
on every hand.
So as we learn the facts of
our life we can hardly help
becoming more charitable
even to bureaucrats. They too
are the product of their en
vironment. Thus we see the advantage
of a more rational way of
life and why the Soviet Un
ion is able to outstrip us In
every endeavor where they
apply themselves.

Recreation Planning
To the Editor: Being a moth
er of two pre-school children,
I certainly appreciate the ef
fort the young girls are put-
forth for these children with
their supervised summer play
ground activities. However, it
seems to me that after taking
time to suggest and plan a
program of this type, the per
sons who suggested this Idea
would put forth enough ef
fort to supply the girl with
at least a minimum of .equip
ment to work with.
Arts and crafts Is one of
the programs offered to these
children, and it seems only
logical that equipment be
furnished for this as was
promised.
Just today one of these
young supervisors told me
that she was promised both a
schedule and equipment and
at yet hai received neither.
Menace
represent the views of the
often th case.
She has only what she brought
herself.
Today some 30 young boys
gathered for a scheduled ball
game and were Immediately
informed that they couldn't
play today because the man
couldn't be here to watch
them. How could 30 boys got
mixed up on a date? What a
let down for these boys. '
Could the organizer of this
go ahead with it, or did they
plan on having a few girls
do the work alone? Medford,
being a city of some size, has
very little recreation for the
5 through 9 year age chil
dren. I think we could take
a minute of time, couldn't
we?

Hurrah for M. J. Olson '
To the Editor: Thank God
for. the M. J. Olsons of this
country-if there were only
more!
And as to the Walter
Reeces of this country, since
our government is so gener
ous with its funds (note "our
great big highway bungle" in
July issue of Reader's Digest)
pernaps tney would set- up a
fund whereas they could move
permanently to their beloved
Russia and stay there.
I am for everyone being
as happy as possible, so long
as it isn't at the expense of
others.
I think Mr. Olson's last
paragraph bears rcpealing
only addressed to Administra
tive Government In General.
Something needs to be done
and soon.

in law enforcement in favor
of juvenile hoodlums of prom

to Los Angeles, John B. Con

Edwards, vice-chairman of the

conference. They were asked
by reporters if they regard
ed Kennedy's remark as an
oblique jab nt Senator John
son, 51-ycar-old senate lead
er, who suffered a heart at
tack in 1955.
They replied that they
would be glad to match John

referred to Kennedy's long

of the adrenalin hormone
flow in the blood. As a re
