Keck Brief in Lewis Publishing Case Defends Press Freedoms
Former Assistant Attorney General James M. Keck filed in the Supreme Court a brief for the Lewis publishing case challenging the newspaper publicity law. He argues no express power to regulate journalism exists and that compelled disclosure of ownership aims to control the mails, not constitutional authority. The brief cites precedents and notes debates showing the act seeks public disclosure to influence policy, raising Fifth Amendment concerns about taking property.
