Judge Rules In L and N Case On Tax Equity
Nashville judge William Miller heard two and a half hours of arguments in the L and N Railway tax case. The railroad seeks a preliminary injunction to stop state tax officials from certifying L and N assessments to local authorities until the matter is resolved. Attorneys argued over jurisdiction and disparities in ad valorem taxes, with the railroad claiming its property is assessed too high compared with neighboring states.

Supreme Court ruling edges into public function debates
The Supreme Court's six to zero decision in Macon Georgia holds Bacon Field park must serve both races while city involvement continues. Justice Douglas says the park is integral to public function and cannot shift to private trustees merely by privatization. Justices Harlan and Stewart warn the reasoning could extend to other public functions. A separate action refused retrial in a Liggett tobacco case and other items noted including Blue tax case arguments and a jaywalking appeal.
