Marriage war brewing
United Press International
SOUTH LAKE TAHOE,
marriage war
Calif. — A marriage war was
brewing Monday at Lake Ta
hoe, but it didn’t involve hus
bands and wives.
Instead, the conflict involved
Nevada and California wedding
chapels in the Sierra Nevada.
The bickering has touched
upon money. Nasty words have
been exchanged and lawsuits
filed.
On the Nevada side is the
Rev. Raymond Love, whose
Love Enterprises unites an
nually about (5,()()() impatient
couples who like the fact that
blood tests are unnecessary. In

California, a three-day delay
may be required for test results.
On the California side is a
group of chapels that has taken
about half of the quickie mar
riage market by using an
obscure 107-year-old law that
allows marriages to take place
without blood tests.
The law also permits the
union to remain confidential if
a couple says they have been liv
ing together.
The California law was in
tended to allow couples living
together to legalize their
relationship and legitimize their
children without social stigma.
California state Sen. Ollie
Speraw has proposed abolish
ing the state’s secret marriage
law and allowing chapel opera
tors to issue wedding licenses.
The bill is under review in the
Senate Finance Committee.

WASHINGTON — The Su
preme Court freed political ac
tion committees to spend mil
lions of dollars on the 1984
presidential race Monday, re
jecting pleas for a quick decision
on the legality of federal cam
paign spending limits.
The court also opened the
way for a $20 million suit
against former Attorney Gen
eral Edward Levi and other for
mer officials for refusing to cut
off federal funds to police de
partments that discriminated
against blacks and women.
Justices also agreed to con
sider guidelines for selection of
jurors in death penalty cases to
guarantee that juries are not
“uncommonly willing to con
demn a man to die.” >
In the campaign spending
case involving limits on political
action committees, the high
court rejected without comment
the Democratic Party’s plea for
a decision before the Nov. 6
election.
The justices have agreed to
hear the case but said Monday
they will stick to their original
timetable, with arguments on
the case this winter and a ruling
by July 1985.
That leaves PACs free to
spend an estimated $20 million
on publicly funded candidates
during the 1984 election.
PACs are independent orga
nizations dedicated to specific
political goals rather than direct
support for candidates.. Lower
courts have sli tick itownlsl^p
