Oregon Supreme Court Decision
Bans Cross on Public Property

SALEM, Ore. (JTA) — The Ore-

gon Supreme Court, in a prece- have agreed to ask the court for a

ruling before the Christmas sea-
son.
In ruling by a 5-2 decisiori that
the cross must be removed, the
Supreme Court upheld the dissent-'
ing opinion of Justice Alfred T.
Goodwin when the case was heard
last February and affirmed the
decree of the trial court "for the
reasons substantially set forth" in
his dissent. Jutice Goodwin took .
the position that the display of the
Cross was "a "religious activity".
and thus violated both the United
States and Oregon constitutional ;
provisions barring aid to religion.
Justice Goodwin had declared
that "whether so intended by the '
city council or not. the city's par-
ticipation in the display has plac-
ed the city officially and visibly on
record in support of those who ;
sought government sponsorship
for the religious display.
He said there was "no doubt
that the mayor and council were
responding to popular demand,"
but he stressed that "it was to pre-
vent this kind of response to
majority pressure that the estab-
lishment clause of the First
Amendment was written into our
Federal Constitution.

dent-making decision, reversed a
position it had taken last Febru-
ary and ruled that a giant, elec-
trically lighted cross erected in a
city park in Eugene must be re-
moved.
The court thus confirmed the
decision of the Circuit Court, made
in 1967, ordering the removal of
the cross on the grounds that its
erection violated the city charter.
The lower court decision did not
rule on the Constitutional issues.
• The Supreme Court, by a 4-3
vote last February, reversed the
Circuit Court decision on appeal by
the Eugene City Council, a major-
ity holding that the religious sym-
bol was not unconstitutional. The
court, however, granted a rehear-
