Black Muslin regilious activ-
tiles behind prison walls can bt
prohibited, under certain con.
ditions, without violating the
Constitution, according to ar
article in the December issu,
Of the Columbia Law Review
out this week.
The unsigned student articl,
in tn columbia University
journal discusses at some length
the court cases which led tt
permitting Black Muslin serv.
ices and other activities in Dis.
trict penal institutions. 1t Is
critical in respect to the
grounds of one of the court
decisions and says that the
other case did not resolve the
question of prisoners right to
free exercise of religion.
The MuSlims are an extremist
sect which views all white men
as devils" Their hate preach
ing at Lorton Reformatory and
the problems they have caused
for District penal officials were
disclosed in an exclusive report
December 6 in The Star.
The law review article, which
also deals with cases concern-
ing the religious rights of Black
Muslin inmates that have come
up elsewhere in the United
States. concludes that upon
clear demonstration of the i'm
minent and grave disciplinary
threat of the Black Muslims as
a group in a particular prison,
prescription by prison officials
of their activities seems con-
titutionally permissible"
Free Speech Involved
To demonstrate the threat OF
Black Muslims TO prison society
the author suggests the clear
and present danger" test which
the Supreme Court has used to
permit infringement Of the
right Of free speech.
This would focus the prison
restrictions on freedom OF
speech rather than freedom OF
religion. The author says pris-
on authorities have "indulged
in constitutionally impermissi-
BILE activity" by trying to de-
clare the Black Muslin faith a
sham" religion. The Supreme
Court has rejected ANY at
tempt to create secular arbiters
OF religious truth" the author
notes. (The District has not
challenged nor conceded in
court that the Black Muslin
faith is a bona fide religionO

not granting greater protection

Curb on Black Muslin Prison Rites
Held Possible Under High Court Test

most any prison an atmosphere
Of potential violence such that
any breach of discipline pre-
sents a clear and present dan
ger justifying severe repression
of the rights Of speech and as
sembly."
Substantially this last argu-
ment was advanced by the
District in Fulwood VS.. Glenn
mer. in which District Court
Judge Burnita S. Matthews
ordered a Muslin inma tie,
Thomas T. x. Fulwood, re-
turned to Lorton Reformatory
from District Jail, to which he
had been transferred as a re-
suit of his preaching to in
mates.
The judge also ordered that
he be allowed to practice his
religion, including the privilege
of meeting in services with
Black Muslin inmates. This
amounted to a court order that
the District permit free exer-
else Of religion for all Black
Muslin inmates.
The order was reaffirmed by
District Court Judge Edward A.
Tamm when the District tried
to stop the services at the re-
formatory on the basis of riots
July 81 and August 2 at the
nearby Lorton Youth Center.
The riots involved Black Mus
lin adherents and sympathiz-
ers, prison officials said, and
occurred within a month after
Black Muslin services we're
permitted at the center.
The Columbia Law Review
article maintains that the basis
for Judge Matthews decision,
the constitutional ban against
unreasonable punishment con-
tained in the Eighth Amend
ment. is Questionable" The
writer states that the amend
ment has been strictly read"
and that "since the religious
guarantee clause is explicit in
the Constitution, it would seem
preferable for a court to base
its decision on the latter clause
rather than the Eighth Amend
ment, which does not in so
may words prohibit withdrawal
Of incidents Of religious ex-
preston or the infliction of
religious persecution"
Other Cases
The other Black Muslin case
affecting the District, Sewell
VS.. Pegelow. along with a sim
liar one in New York, pro-
hibited "the infliction OF pun
ishment and the restriction Of
religious activities solely be-
cause OF religious belief" but
left "the right 10 free exercise
OF religion in prison unclear."
the writer says.
The Sewell case, which went
10 the 4th Circuit Court Of
Appeals twice, was never de-
cided by the court on the basis
of a hearing record in the
lower courts.
The Justice Department,
which argued the case for the
city. advised the District Com
missioners that the appeals
court indicated II would rule
in favor OF the Black Muslims.
The Commissioners agreed TO
allow Black Muslin religious
activities IN return for With
drawal OF the appeal.
The Sewell and New York
cases did indicate. however.
that a prison administrators
condemnation OF group reli-
gious practices requires factual
foundation renewable by the
courts" No standard for max
ing this determination was
made, the writer notes. and
then suggests the clear and
present danger" test along with
subsidiary findings OF the co-
hesiveness of the prescribed
group and the inadequacy OF
alternative means OF securing

In critical periods-in a

whose name you can't re-

try something like this:

...Who Was Thut

BY JOHN McKELWAY

One of the things the
Rambler admired about the
late, great Louis Norman
Newsom. besides the fast
ball, was his practice of
calling everybody, including
himself, "BoBo."
How exquisitely simple.
Mr.. Newsom apparently,
like a few of us, suffered a
sudden and unexpected loss
Of memory for names, in
GLIDING his own. I'm his
early career he was called
"Buck.~
But Buck, or BoBo, New
som was a showboat and he
could get away with it.
There are just a few peo-
pie who can call anybody
"BoBo."

OF course, be lived with. So

The Christmas season,
however, is extremely diff

Since that portion of his
brain jelled-the one where
the names are usually sup
plied-The Rambler has tried
a variety of approaches to
the problem.
