Page 4 THE BATTALION 3 WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 16, 1974 Supreme Court fails to act on question of wiretap authorization Protest cows go to Ford By the Associated Press While farmers in Wisconsin were killing calves Tuesday to protest livestock prices, Ok lahoma stockmen were launch ing new strategies of gifts, not guns, to dramatize their money plight. In eastern Oklahoma, cat tlemen were starting to gather cattle to be shipped to Washington and trucked to the White House for presentation to Betty Ford. The First Lady raised the ire of some of the livestock indus try recently when she extoled the economies of serving cas seroles instead of red meat. In Oklahoma City, top ag ricultural executives staged a T-bone lunch for reporters to unveil a less frivolous effort, a new “Give Meat for the Holi days” promotion. Behind the high-rise Ok lahoma Farm Bureau office building, a temporary pen held three beef steers as visual aids behind Calumet rancher Henry Haley as he lectured on the inflation woes of the meat producers. The “give meat” gift certifi cate promotion is a joint ven ture by the Farm Bureau, Farmers Union, Cattleman’s Association, Association of Electric Co-operatives and the Oklahoma Retail Grocers As sociation. “Every livestock producer is familiar with the current mar ket situation, and this gives every farmer or rancher an op portunity to do something posi tive about it,” said George Stone, Farmers’ Union presi dent.

WASHINGTON (AP)—The Sup reme Court declined to rule Tues day on whether federal agents need authorization from a judge to use wiretaps in their efforts to detect spying by foreign powers. The court’s surprise decision let stand the conviction of Igor A. Ivanov, found guilty 10 years ago of spying for the Soviet Union. It had been widely assumed the court would review the case, be cause attorneys for both Ivanov and the Justice Department has asked it to. Three justices—William O. Douglas, William J. Brennan Jr., and Potter Stewart—favored hear ing the appeal. The court does not hear a case, however, unless four justices want to. Justice Thurgood Marshall, who frequently sides with Douglas and Brennan, did not take part in the decision. Marshall was solicitor general when the Ivanov case was appealed to the Supreme Court the first time, in 1969. At that time, the court sent the case back to a lower court to determine whether there had been illegal wiretaps. The Ivanov decision came as the court screened nearly 1,000 cases which piled up during the summer recess, accepting 25 for full-scale review including a hearing. Cases it agreed to consider in volve: —Whether states may deny wel fare benefits for unborn children, as 35 states do, under federal regula tions which make it optional. —The constitutionality ofa Penn sylvania law providing state- financed tutoring, textbooks and equipment for pupils in private schools. —Whether a Social Security law providing death benefits to widows but not to widowers is unconstitu tionally discriminatory. —Whether returning veterans are entitled to have their military service counted in computing vaca tions from their civilian jobs. In other actions, the court upheld the constitutionality of the trans- Alaska pipeline act and agreed to review a lower court order i ^ ing the builders of the line, Pipeline Service Co., top a lawsuit which delayed its ( struction. The court agreed to review ai cision curbing the power of sional committees to obtain M mation about controversial ori zations. That stemmed from a peals court ruling barring the l nate Internal Security Commits from subpoenaing bank records; the United Servicemen’s Fund The court also agreed tot whether taxpayers may, insoi stances, sue the Internal Revem Serv ice to block collection of ta e Generally such suits are ! by a revision of the IRS code COUPON SAVINGS SPECIAL LP ALBUMS Old Favorites Hit Tunes, Special Purchase Price Without Coupon 99c Coupon Expires Oct. 19th 1974 COUPON SAVINGS GENUINE COCA COLA GLASSES Large 16 oz.
