Friday, December 6. I963 ICARLET AND BLACK Give Legal View Of Civil Rights By Phil Bernstein In a coffee hour held Wednes- day in Yollnker Lounge, Profes- sor W, Bonfield of the Univer— sity of Iowa Law School spoke on the Kennedy Civil Rights bill as Viewed by a constitution- e1 lawyer. Bonfield stated that the bill‘s passage was imperative not only from a moral standpoint but also in the light of the hatred bred by discrimination and of the financial and physi- cal inconvenience which it causes to all of us. The Kennedy Bill would make illegal any racial discrim— ination by hotels, stores, gas stations, etc. which are in» volved in interstate commerce, It would also ban discrimina- tion in movie theaters and other places of entertainment if either the patrons or source of entertainment had to cross state boundaries. In answer to those who would still leave anti—discrimination legislation up to the individual states, Bonfield replied that discrimination is, in effect, a national problem and, moreover. most state statutes outlawing it are rarely, if ever, enforced He pointed out that. the Kennedy Bill draws its prec- edent from two sections of the Constitution —- the Fourteenth Amendment and the Commerce Clause. The more important of these is the commerce clause, for it is recognized that discrimina- tion in the area of public ac- commodations has a direct and negative bearing on interstate commerce. The boycotts of those fighting for equality have the same stifling effects as the strikes of those who strive for union recognition. That the latter is now covered by the National Labor Relations Act (on the support of the comv merce clause) gives precedent to protecting the former under a bill such as the Kennedy_ Civil Rights Bill. Eonfield countered the states’ rights argument so often given by Southerners by saying that the {act that the Tenth Amend- ment gives the stats only those powers not previously dele- gated to the Federal Govern- ment is irrelevant here be- cause the Kennedy Bill draws its support from delegated powers.
