I know of no way for a value to acquire the quality of "absolute" but to be declared so by some authority.

That is the accepted way. Ayn Rand's approach was that moral values were based on the individual. Your "standard of value" is your life.

To me, a "moral action" is one that does not interfere with anyone else's property.

Property: A person's life, and all non-procreative derivatives thereof.
