High Court to Rule on Phone Tap
The Supreme Court agreed to rule next term on whether the government may tap telephone lines of those deemed threats to national security without federal judge consent. The case tests the balance of self protection versus individual privacy in security investigations and involves Attorney General Mitchell’s claimed authority to approve taps. The court also addressed juvenile trials delays, abuse language laws, and a privacy case against federal agents in a separate ruling.

Injunction in Ambulance Contract Denied by Iowa Judge
Judge Chapman upheld a contract between the city and Cedar Rapids Hospital Council for private ambulance service, ruling ambulance operation is a proprietary function outside city limits. He cited the 1968 home rule amendment and a 1922 Iowa Supreme Court decision, noting health care facility operation is a proprietary function and the contract uses private providers. He stressed no city power limits on liberal interpretation by statute, with rainfall and storm damage noted in regions around Cedar Rapids.
