CHARGES DEMOCRATS Congressman John B. An­ derson (R-Ill.) today charged his Democratic colleagues on the House Rules Committee with breaking faith with their own caucus by rejecting "open rule" motions on committee investigative resolutions in the Rules committee on Tuesday. In Anderson's words, "Less than a week ago the Democratic caucus adopted a resolution which states, in part, that 'Democratic members of the Rules committee shall not support any rule or order prohibiting any germane amendment to any bill reported from committee', and yet yesterday, the Democratic members on Rules voted to a man against my motion to provide open rules on these committee investigative-travel authorization resolutions. It is ironic that on the very day the Washington Post was editorially praising House Democrats for instilling 'a refreshing spirit in the House' by their anti-closed rule and other reforms, this spirit was already going stale among Democrats on the Rules committee." Anderson's open rule motion was rejected on a straight 8-4 party-line vote. Young Student Tops Class At Bible College Lawrence E.

' Door-To-Door Sale Law Now Includes $25 Sale The Illinois State Bar association has reminded Illinoisans that they have the right to cancel door-to-door sales within three days of the purchase even though a proposed federal regulation to the same effect may not become effective for some time. The ISBA noted that the Federal Trade commission has proposed a three-day cooling- off period for door-tondoor sales similar to the Illinois law. However, the bar group said no effective date has been set for the federal regulation pending the outcome of a lawsuit which questions the right of the FTC to issue binding orders. The ISBA said the Illinois law, which has been in effect since 1968, recently was broadened to apply the can­ cellation right to door-to-door sales of $25 cash sales price or more. Previously, the tran­ saction had to be for $50 or more. Here are other requirements of the Illinois law: The merchandise is sold or contracted to be sold under a single contract or under multiple contracts. The sale is "a result of or in connection with" a salesman's direct contact with or call on the consumer at his residence without the consumer soliciting his contact or call. The consumer may avoid the contract or sale by notifying the seller within three full business days (excluding a Sunday or holiday following that day on which the contract or sale was made and by returning to the seller, in its original condition, any merchandise delivered to him under the contract or sale. The three-day period does not begin until the consumer is furnished with an address or phone number at which notice to the seller of cancellation can be given. The ISBA said notice of cancellation preferably should be in a manner that provides the customer with a record of the communication, such as by certified mail or by telegram. People who wake up famous haven't been asleep. Dear Louisa, I am an old woman and have a husband who is an invalid now. But when he was younger he was wild and unfaithful to me. Many of my friends urged me to leave him and make a better l ife for myself but I felt that I had married for better or for worse and I would take what came. Well several years ago he got very sick and I have been taking care of him. It has been a hard job but I have never regretted my de­ cision. He has changed and I believe he is honestly sor­ ry for the life he has lived and appreciated what I have done for him. He said to me a few days ago, that I had always been so good to him. I suppose one reason I stay­ ed was that I loved him and that he was all the family I had. Delia--Md. An swer: Every person is different from others. This woman has a strong sense of duty and did what she thought to be the right thing. There are others who disagree with this idea and feel that a person should make the best life that he can for himself or herself. But I think it boils down to the fact that if one loves a great deal he will put up w i t h a l o t f r o m t h e l o v e d one. Louisa. Address letters: Louisa, Box 532.
