INCORPORATED -;-,-fT" Post Office Has Necessary Legal Authority To Deal With Obscene Matter Through Mails Editor's note: Semi church leaden and mem ber! of Congress have ex pressed fear that the Post Office Department's drive against mail order obscenity may be crippled by a recent Supreme Court decision. In the following interview. Postmaster General J. Ed ward Day tays the drive is till in high gear and won't be affected by the court ruling. By LOUIS CASSELS Washington - WPIl - Post master General J. Edward Day said today the Post Office De partment has all the legal authority it needs to continue a hard hitting campaign against purveyors of pornog raphy. He discounted fears voiced by some church leaders and members of Congress that the drive against mail order ob scenity may be crippled by a recent Supreme Court de cision. On June 25, the court ruled, 6 to 1, that the Post Office was wrong in barring from the mails three magazines which featured nude male photographs. The government contended that the magazines had a lewd appeal for homo sexuals. The decision was greeted by protests similar lo those evoked by the prayer-in-schools ruling which the high court issued the same day. Receives Many Letters The Most Rev. Robert E. Luccy, Roman Catholic arch bishop of San Antonio, Tex., said it would "hamstring" Post Office enforcement ef forts and "throw our children to the wolves of obscenity." Rep. George Wallhouscr (II N.J.) predicted in Congress that a "flood of obscene mat ter" would soon be pouring through the mails. Day disclosed in an inter view that he has been hear ing from many other Ameri cans - members of Congress, religious leaders and private citizens In all parts of the country - who are under the mpression that the court de cision knocked the legal props from under his anti - smut campaign. 'Actually, It hasn t affected us at all," he said. "If any thing, this ruling is a mandate for us to continue the ap proach we've been using for the past 18 months." Relies on U.S. Code He explained that ihe Post Office has two ways of deal ing with obscene material. FRESH WHOLE DRAWN Proof That Meat Buys at Safeway.

MEDFORD, OREGON One is to bar it from the mails i by administrative order. The other is to bring criminal charges against the people who send pornography through the mails. Arthur E. Summerfield, postmaster general during the Eisenhower Administration, relied heavily on the admin istrative approach. H was Summerfield, for example, who issued a 1960 order bar ring the three allegedly homo sexual magazines from the mails. Day, a lawyer in private life, decided when he look office in January, 1961, to dis continue the administrative method and rely exclusively on criminal prosecutions under Title 18 of the U. S. Code. This statute provides fines up to $5,000 and up to five years in prison for per sons convicted of mailing ob scene materials. Set Aside Order In its June 25 ruling, the Supreme Court set aside Sum merfield's order banning the three magazines.

Thus, he said, he cannot see how the ruling will handi cap his drive in any way. "We're concentrating on hard core pornography - the real sick stuff which any re spectable person would recog nize as an outrageous corrupt ing influence," he said. "There is enough of it going through the mails to keep us busy without diverting any of our personnel to the marginal cases which involve us in lengthy court proceedings."
