Ruling Questions Civil Rights Public Accommodations Law
In Birmingham Ollie McClung and son challenge the public accommodations provision as unconstitutional for a restaurant not engaged in interstate commerce. The three judge panel says Congress lacks power over such behavior and the decision could prompt many suits from neighborhood eateries seeking to end racial barriers.

The Justice Department will appeal and seek a stay pending review.
