Supreme Court Delays Ruling on Private Discrimination
The Supreme Court postponed deciding if a private business owner may lawfully discriminate in serving customers or seek state aid to enforce such rules. The court overturned convictions of 44 sit-in demonstrators and suggested private rights to restrict use of property may lie beyond the 14th Amendment. Justice Harlan warned the private owner’s right to segregate could be untouched. The rulings imply many sit-in convictions across the South are unconstitutional, while leaving open how a private storekeeper might act without state or city mandates.

Coffee Agreement Hearing Vote Set in Senate
The Senate planned a vote on a controversial coffee agreement aimed at stabilizing production and establishing a price floor amid declining world prices. Supporters push two thirds to ratify, arguing it would regulate output and maintain 1962 price levels, while opponents fear unfair burdens on U.S. coffee consumers and foreign exchange costs for producing nations.
