courts had decided In their
favor. But the SEC appealed
the rulings to the Supreme
Court.
An SEC official said certain
practices Of the companies now
appear to be In conflict with
SEC regulations. He said con-
ferences would be held with the
insurance companies officials
as a step In obtaining COM
pliance.
The idea behind variable pol
icies is to protect the policy
holder from the effects Of a
depreciating dollar.
But. Justice Douglas in writ
ing the majority opinion de-
clared: (The difficulty is that,
absent some guarantee Of
fixed income, the variable
annuity places all the invest
ment risks on the annuitant.
none on the company" In this
way, he distinguished such
companies from the ordinary
insurance company.
Dissenting were Justices Har-
Ian, Frankfurter, Clark and
Whitaker. The dissenters said
they could find nothing in the
statutes authorizing Federal
control of companies such as
those involved in the litigation.

Of a suit in which Jerome S.
Spevack. a New Rochelle IN.
scientist had sought to prevent

The court pointed out that
Mr.. Spevack can get q patent

Of a fee before May Is. Once a.
patent is issued, the atomic
procedure viii be on the public
record and hence there will be

from his espionage conviction
said 1t wanted to hear discus.
sions as to the validity Of ar
administrative warrant used In
arresting Abel in his New York
hotel room in 1857.
The court also asked argu-
ments as to whether the war
rant furnished q valid basis for
the subsequent search Of Abels
rooms hunt which turned UP
codes and other evidence later
used in his espionage trial.
Another question the court
Indicated interest inwas wheth-
er, regardless Of the warrant
his arrest and the search were
constitutional.
Warrants Differ
An administrative warrant,
such as used in deportation ar
rests. differs from the ordinary
arrest warrant in that 1t may be
issued BY any one of the 80
district directors /. Of the I'M
migration Service whenever In
his discretion" 1t appears that
the arrest Is necessary.
It's issuance follows a SHOW
cause" order in which the de-
portee is instructed by the
director to show cause why he
is not deportable. But both the
warrant and the order may be
served simultaneously and this
was done in the Abel case.
Constitutionally. criminal ar
rest warrants must be issued by
a magistrate and are issued
only on a showing Of probable
cause" to believe that the per-
son named is guilty Of q specific
crime.
But courts long have SarN-
toned arrests in deportation
cases under the more-easily-
comedy administrative war
rant because deportation pro-
ceedings are regarded as nom
criminal.
When a person is arrested
legally. either by warrant or
otherwise. such as when he is
seen in the commission of q
crime. any search made Incl
dental to- the arrest is valid.
Application to Abel Case
1t would appear that If the
Supreme Court were to rule
that use of the administrative
warrant is unconstitutional.
then it would follow that the
search was invalid. unless 1t
could be shown Abel was seen
in the commission Of q crime.
Even though the court might
find that deportation cases be-
ing noncriminal are amenable
to use Of the administrative
the fruits of the search
were used in the criminal pros
ecution of Abel and this could
lead to a ruling suppressing the
evidence. 44
After Abel's arrest by i'm
migration agents. he was flown

Spanish Flag
HeIdLegoIon
u. S. Bases
BY the Associated Press

The State Department, re-
acting to a Congressman's pro-
test, says Spain has a perfect
right to fly Spanish flags ovet
United States bases in the
country.
Joseph w. Reap, press officer,
said yesterday this is provided
for in the 1853 United States
Spanish base agreement. He
said the department does not
intend to seek any revision OF
that clause, which also grants
the United States control over
United States personnel and
facilities there.
The question was raised by
Representative Kowalski, DEM
ocrat of Connecticut, who ex-
pressed amazement upon seeing
the Spanish flag flying over
United States-manned airfields
IN spain.
Mr.. Kowalski, a House Armed
Services Committee member,
said he cabled President Eisen-
hover asking for our fighting
men in Spain the right and
privilege to see our flag fly over
the bases at which they serve"
The Congressman also said
United Staes troops are re-
quired to salute the Spanish
flag when it is raised or low
cred. Mr.. Reap commented that
military customs and courtesies
provide for Saluting flags of
other nations.

Judge Kronheim started tt
say something, but Maude kept
speaking.

Il can't hear you," said
Maude.

the Judge pleasantly.
"Hooey!" Maude shrieked, as

was on her feet waving a shea1
