Court Voids Loyalty Oath "
OF University Of California
BY the Associated Press

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 18.-
The California State Supreme
Court yesterday ruled the contro-
versial loyalty oath required by
the regents of the University OF
California was invalid.
The court ordered reinstatement
of II university faculty members
who were dismissed when they
refused to sign the oath.
The Levering Act requiring a
loyalty oath from all California
State, county and city employees
was held constitutional, however.
and the court stipulated that the
discharged faculty members must
sign that oath if they want their
jobs back.
A spokesman for the II said
it was unlikely any action would
be taken until it is learned
whether the Board of Regents
would appeal the Supreme Court
ruling.

There were cries of "You tell

as the President declared that
'the Republican candidate for
President probably owes more to
Gen. Marshall than he. does to
any other living man." and added
that "a man who won't stand

of his friends can't be relied on

speech of last month. when he
said that the spirit and organ

remembered in history for perse.

Mr.. Truman, who had brought

FTC Extends'DeadIint
For Liquor Producers
To Answer Charges
By GEORGE Beveridoe

Lie TCOcldl 1Iduc SUIl1lIllSSlUIl
has extended to November II a
deadline for two major liquor
producers to answer charges in a
precedent-making antitrust &C
ton which may vitality affect Or
ganizational setups in big business.
The charges. contained in two
complaints, are against:
1. Distillers Corporation-Sea-
gram, Ltd. of Canada, and 81
wholly owned subsidiaries.
2. Schenley Industries, Inc, and
eight subsidiary companies.
The complaints do not in any
way relate Schenley to Seagram.
Instead, each of the holding COM
panies is accused of conspiring
with its own subsidiaries to fix
prices, tie up raw materials and
control distribution markets.
FTC attorneys said the actions
representing, the first such Fed
eral attack on individual hold
ling companies, raise this new
Question in anti-monopoly law:
Can a restraint Of trade con-
spiracy result from a parent COM
Ipany's deals with its own, wholly
owned subsidiaries?
Could Apply Elsewhere.
If the charges are upheld, the
attorneys said, they could apply
to the activities of large holding
companies in many other fields
! Seagram and Schenley were
given a deadline of next Monday
to answer the charges, which were
filed on Septembel "a. They have
been granted a request. Officials
said today, that. the deadline bt
moved up to November IT.
Lynn G.. Paulson, of the FTC''
Bureau of Monopoly, in charge Of
the cases, said Seagram also ha'
served notice it will oppose thu
action on the ground its parent
firm is Canadian corporation.
Mr.. Paulson said the new the.
ory involved in the case was up.

Supreme Court in January, 1851

Co. Both are subsidiaries of Dis

Newell Clapp, acting head o
the Justice Departments Anti
Trust Division, told a reporte
,, today that the only legal basis TO
action in 1949 would have beel
evidence that the big four" wer
conspiring to violate the anti
trust laws. And there was NJ
such evidence, he said.
Mr.. Clapp said the new theor
has not been used thus far as tn
, basis for any Justice Department
, antitrust suit.

, applied the new antitrust theor
to only two firms in the liquor in

because it was recognized the &C

The complaints will come befor

different kind of shout.
I'VE can't have it both ways"
he told them. I'VE can't be for
the Supreme Court on Monday
and against it on Tuesday"
Understands Positions.
He could understand, the Gov
|ernor said, how the people of
Texas felt about it.
"As Governor, I know very well
how urgently a State needs every
penny it can get for the support
|of its schools and the welfare of
its citizens.
But also believe that, in our
system of government, the Su-
preme Court is the ultimate au-
thority on matters of this kind.
When it makes a ruling, it is the
sacred duty of all of us-no matter
how sorely disappointed we may
be-to accept the ruling in good
faith" r-s
Judging by the applause, the
governor put himself and his ar
gument across in a big way. If
there was one weakness so far
as his audience was concerned,
it was that he wasn't rough
enough on Gov. Shivers. At the
mention of his name, the crowd
started yelling, Pour it on him" :"
But Gov. Stevenson, it seemed,
spoke more in sorrow than anger.
Gov. Shivers, he said, had once
believed in the Supreme Court
exactly as I believe in it today" He
had also once expressed his will
ingness to compromise the tide
lands issue.
Hopes for Change.
But evidently the Governor has
concluded that it is time for a
Ichange-of mind" Gov. Stevenson
said. II can only hope that when
the heat of this campaign is over
he will return to his first position
to what would seem to be to the
great benefit of the people of
Texas" ~ ..3-.- Sol ,t..,.-.
The Democratic candidate came
into Texas with his chin out, ex-
Ipecting trouble. '~
At his first stop, in Fort Worth,
he told an audience:
II have been warned that there

that I, candidate for President

Eden Doubts
Acceptance Ut
POW Proposal
By STANLEY JOHNSON

UNITED NATIONS, N. Y. u
British Foreign Secretary Anthony
Eden doubts that the Chinese Com
munists viii accept tn, Indian pro-
posal for a compromise solution of
the Korean war prisoner deadlock,
it was learned today.
But the top British diplomat feels
that a Red Chinese refusal may
not be altogether a bad thing since
it might weaken ties of sympathy
between the Peiping Communist
regime and the Indian government.
Eden made some of his private
views known to a huSh-hush meet
ing of British news correspondents.
No Americans were invited but
Eden's ideas were soon made
known to representatives of U. S.
news organs.
The British foreign secretary
also said he felt his close wartime
personal relationship with U. S.
President Elect Eisenhower had
been reestablished during a visit
with Eisenhower Thursday.
He declared a belief that Anglo
American relations would continue
close and constructive under the
new Republican administration.
Most of Eden's conversation with
the British correspondents in his
apartment on the 23rd floor of the
skyscraper Waldorf Astoria. hotel
was devoted to the problem of
reaching an armiStice in the Ko-
rean fighting.
The Indian resolution aims at
settling the dispute over war pri-
soners--the only issue now holding
up a cease-fire.
The U. S. initially was reported
cool to the Indian resolution but
