Court Upholds Segregation Rules in Montgomery Bus System
A Montgomery circuit judge upheld segregation laws and ordered Montgomery City Lines to end desegregated seating. He issued an injunction to prevent mixing whites and Negroes and directed removal of driver instructions defying segregation. The ruling cites no Alabama constitutional prohibition on reasonable race separation on city buses. The Atomic Energy Commission meanwhile revised loyalty procedures to allow accused security risks to confront accusers where possible and set new reconsideration standards for security clearances.
