of their clients and who are now
prohibited from continuing in the
only business they know" the petit
ton said.
without the means to establish
beauty shop, in some cases too old
to be accepted by such shops as op-
orators, their unfortunate resort
must be relief" the petition contin-
ued. An incidental hardship is to
the clients, many Of whom also are
old. and most of whom are unable or
unwilling to patronize beauty shops
and operators they do not know. The
result of the law is unemployment
and the prospect that 1t will oppose
an additional burden on the taxpay-
ers Of the District of Columbia.
I'VE believe that the law was not
intended to destroy employment. nor
to take away the means of living of
decent, self respecting women. It
could not have been intended to
make a beauty shop monopoly OF
cosmetology.
Ask reconsideration.
I'VE respectfully appeal to the
commission to direct consideration
~ the regulations ~ the District of
Columbia Board Or Cosmetology and,
If permitted by law, modify them so
that women who prior to the said
enactment were able to work at their
trade. may be allowed to continue to
do so. If the regulations cannot be
modlf1ed under the law, then we re :
quest the commission to recommend
to Congress changes which will per-
nit these women to resume their
practice, and not 60 on relief, or be
forced to depend upon private
charity"
The regulation under fire pro-
vides: 1T shall be unlawful for any
person to practice cosmetology for
pay IN any place other than a regis
tered beauty shop: Provided, that a
registered operator may in an emer-
gency furnish genealogical treat
ments to persons by appointment" !"
The brief prepared by Judge Cov-
ington declares this section is
paddy arbitrary and capricious"
and is clearly in violation of the due
process clause in that the forbid
ding OF licensed operator to prac-
tice for pay in private home has
no relation to the public health and
safety. The regulation is not con-
nected with the real purpose Of the
act, which is to regulate the health,
character and proficiency OF those
who practice cosmetology, the at
torney said.

The brief contends that the state

ably interfere with a private and

Of law that needs no extensive cita-

The attorney declared the fact
that a barber can engage in his
practice in ones home lawfully,
while a beauty operator who en-
cages in the same practices in the
same home commits a criminal Of
fense, makes section IL a shocking
denial of the equal protection of the

States cosmetology act was uncon-
stitutional, in part because the re-
strictions as to places where the
vocation might be practiced were
wholly unreasonable and oppres-
sive."
The Delaware act contained a
provision similar to section IL of
the District act. 1t provided that
'it shall be unlawful for any person
to practice beauty culture for pay
IN any place other than a registered
beauty shop" but it provided fur
ther that registered operator could
give treatments in residences of
clients by appointment.
Judge Covington also cited the
fact that the act to regulate bar
bers IN the District contains no pro-
vision preventing the practice Of
barbering outside of barber shop
although. by reason of the defini-
tions IN the respective acts. BARRIERS
and cosmetologists engage in prac-
tically the same activities"
Thus, he said. 1T the prohibition
OF section II Of the Cosmetology
Act were a valid restriction, q wom-
an who is an efficient hairdresser,
duly licensed, may be punished by
six months in the workhouse of the
District Of Columbia for performing
precisely the services for Mrs. x at
her home that a man who is an ef-
ficient barber, duly licensed. may
lawfully perform for Mr.. x in the
same home"
Arbitrary Discrimination.
This arbitrary discrimination
clearly denies the equal protection
OF the laws implicit in the fight
amendment. "and section II is,
therefore, clearly void" the attorney
stated.
Referring to section II of the act
providing that . licensed operator
employed in q beauty parlor may
practice outside of the establishment
under the direction of an owner or
manager and under such regulations
as the Board of Cosmetology may
provide, Judge Covington declared: !:
