Iowa Jaycees ruling limits Civil Rights Commission reach
The Iowa Supreme Court threw out nearly $41,000 in damages awarded to the Cedar Rapids Jaycees by the state and national Jaycees for discrimination in membership, ruling the Civil Rights Commission misinterpreted the public accommodations law. The decision narrows the scope of protections for private membership groups while noting federal arguments may still apply.

Morris Plan depositors with more than 1500 dollars would receive about 16 percent initially under the proposed amendment to the plan of reorganization. The initial half would be paid in three equal installments at the opening of the new S and L, on the first and second anniversaries. Three of 18 000 depositors objected, including Suzanne Smith of Cedar Rapids, who read her filing at the hearing.
