Lower Voting
Ane Asked
MINNEAPOLIS ( Dropping
the voting age to 18 cannot bring
anything but good for the nation
and the time for nuch legislation is
now, Sen. Kefauver (D-Tenn) told
a University of Minnesota convoca
tion audience today.
The senator said such a change
was needed, "if only to keep the
nation on an even electoral keel
"What I mean," Kefauver aaid
in his prepared text, "is that the
life expectancy la going up and
up, and every year our society con
tains a larger number of old
people. Consequently, the decisions
we make at the polls are coming
to reflect a disproportionate weight
of Judgment by the aged. .' .
"We honor them and venerate
them. But who can deny that a
person's outlook' at 70 la different
than it was at 30? And who will
say that the older, vlewrolnt Is
beaer than the younger, or vice
versa?
"ideally, we ahould have a
balance of viewpoints. The best
and easiest, and I think the only
way to strike that balance la to
lower the voting age to 18 and give
youihs its chance to be heard."
Kefauver's talk came between
visits to St. Paul and Mlnneanolls
industrial plnnls and a luncheon
with university faculty membera.
He will wind up his four-day Minne
sota campaign tour with a public
rally at the labor auditorium tonight.
The senator, opposing Adlal Ste
venson for Democratic delegates in
the state's March 30 presidential
primary, ended his outstate ap
pearances last nicht at Faribault.
There he told a Junior Chamber
of commerce audience that farm-
era' purchasing power la the lowest
since 1840 and that it Is affecting
business on the nation's rural
main streets.
Alter spending the night here,
Kefauver departs by oommerclal
airline tomorrow for Alabama.

'Blackouts' Gets
Vegas Ccnf.-act
HOLLYWOOD 11 Ken Mur
ray's "Blackouts," featuring Marie
Wilson, has been given a million
dollar contract to appear annually
in Las Vegas. Nev., until 10CO.
The contract calls for payment
of a quarter million dollars a year
lor an eight week minimum.
Sammy Lewis, entertainment di
rector for both the New Frontier
and Riviera hotels In Las Vegas,
said Murray's troupe will alter
nate between the two hotels.
'Blackouts" once had a seven-
year run in Hollywood. It was re
vived for a three-week engage
ment at the New Frontier and
the run has been held over for
10 weeks.
Ad Week
Set Aside
Governor Smith recently pro
claimed the week of February
19-25 as Advertising Recognition
Week In Oregon. The week's ob
servance here, under the general
sponsorship of the Advertising As
sociation of the West, Is part of
the nation-wide celebration of Na
tional Advertising Week. This will
be the sixth annual celebration of
Ule week here.
Li signing the proclimiation, Gov.
ernor Smith anld, "The power of
advertising has long been known,
but the benefits of advertising for
each one of us are too often unap
preciated. It Is fitting that we take
one week in the year to recognize
these benllts."
Jack Fitting, president of the
Oregon Advertising Club, who was
with Governor Smith when he
signed the proclamation, said, "The
purpose of this weeK is expressed
m Us theme, 'Advertising helps
you live better for less.' All activi
ties of the week are planned to
help the public understand the es
sential service advertising provides
in giving them information about
the products and aervices they
need."
Electrical Workers, aald he wants
assurance that If other strike la-
sues are settled, there would be
some way to resolve the lime study
question at the end of a (0-day
period. '
But negotiators for Westlnghouae
maintain they agreed to postpone
the time study Issue with an expli
cit understanding they were not
committed to arbitration or any
similar method of solving It In the
future.
The IUE wants the right to ac-
peal to a neutral any company-
ordered Job changes resulting from
the time study. Westinghouse In
sists such decisions are solely for
management.
Federal and private mediators
working on the case wanted to get
uie tune study Issue cnecKeq to
ine aiaeunes so they could get
down to wage and other Issues hold
ing up an agreement.
Approximately 69,000 Westing
house workers membera of the
IUE and Independent United Elec
trical Workers, struck last October
when a two-year contract came up
for renegotiation of wage w.es.
Westinghouse proposed scrapping
the agreement and entering a new
five-year pact granting annual
raises eventually aggregating a
minimum of 23 i, cents an hour.
'i no IUE Insisted on completing
the remaining year of the present
contract. But it has offered a three
year plan calling for a 7-cent
hourly Increase during the first
year. Prestrlke pay rates aver
aged $2.10 an hour. -
