Supreme Court Upheld Federal Power to Order Rent Refunds
The Supreme Court in a four to three decision upheld federal courts authority to order restitution of rent overpayments under the price control act. The ruling reverses a lower appellate finding that courts could enjoin violations but not compel refunds. Justice Murphy noted no provision blocks refunds and the action serves the public interest. Memorial Day reports note Boy Scout troops decorating graves at Ambridge cemeteries.
