Congress Backs Away from Civil Rights Spending Controversy
Congress cleared a controversial amendment aimed at halting the Philadelphia plan for minority employment in federal contracts as part of a catchall appropriation bill. The House vote to strike the amendment was 208 to 156 and the Senate followed 39 to 29, paving the way for a Christmas recess. The measure preserves spending authority for the Department of Health Education and Welfare Labor and foreign aid, while civil rights and contractor rules face a court battle.

Man seeks $115,000 for 34 years in prison for $5 theft
Stephen Dennison, now 60 and gray, appeals to the Supreme Court for $115,000 arguing the 34 years he spent jailed for stealing $5 worth of candy plate bars and marshmallows were unconstitutional. His lawyers say the award by a claims court was wrongfully set aside by New York appeals courts, noting Dennison was deemed mentally defective and denied a jury trial.
