Supreme Court actions in brief headline tour
A summary of Monday's Supreme Court actions includes overturning several state trespass convictions on technical grounds, ruling parts of the Subversive Activities Control Law unconstitutional for passport bans, and allowing counsel once a case moves to accusation. It also required juries to see only voluntary confession questions after judges assess voluntariness and sent reapportionment cases back to align with one person one vote principles. The court declined review of Washington state tax applicability to military housing contracts, overturned bans on certain films, and limited Kansas book bans for nonobscene works. Meanwhile Khrushchev arrived in Stockholm with extensive police measures and met with Prime Minister Erlander at the royal palace amid discussions on peaceful coexistence and regional trade, including pipeline exports and steel pipe concerns.
