The policy Of using private funds
for airport restaurants and lounges,
according to Justice Department
officials, started in 1855 with a
memorandum from Charles J. Low

autics.
known as Memo A." It says
that If part Of an airport project
is to be segregated, it must be
excluded from participation in the
program of Federal aid to airports.
1t also notes that II separate but
equal facilities are planned at an
airport, neither facility shall quail
ify for the Federal aid.
The problem Is considered ironic
here, he said because most per-
sons interested In civil rights be-
lieve that at federally subsidized
airports segregation should be the
easiest to end.
They have the impression that
the Federal Government can Just
snap its fingers and end It at the
airports." said Marshall, But it's
not as simple as buses and rail-
roads"
But he noted that the Interstate
Commerce Commission had no jur-
isdiction over the airports and that

"And this has happened In al
most every Southern city" Mar
shall said This IL a very basic
problem"
Thus, the Justice Department Is
looking for a legal hook with which
to end the airport segregation
