Diner Case Is Decided For Owner
Associate Judge Patrick M Sehnauffer ruled that George P L Ambush a Frederick mobile diner operator is not a hawker and peddler under Maryland law. The decision ends a long dispute over licenses as Ambush had two diners in 1949 but now only one, requiring one restaurant license and no traders license. The case compared to an Allegany bread route, with Ambush arguing his routes serve fixed plants and plants rest periods and his business relies on established daily deliveries. Assistant Attorney General Ward B Caer attended for the defense.
