Crosses on Capitol tree ok, judge rules not establishment
In Harrisburg a federal judge refused to force removal of four small crosses on a 24 foot Capitol Rotunda Christmas tree after a half hour hearing. The ACLU argued the display endorsed Christianity and violated the First Amendment. In Beverly Hills a judge ordered a Christmas tree and menorah to be displayed together or the menorah moved, citing a Supreme Court stance on mixed religious symbols.
