How Powerful?

The fifth section provides that
Congress shall have power to en-
force by appropriate legislation
the provisions of this article" the
Fourteenth Amendment. The Su-
preme Court has never yet de-
termined or defined the full ex-
tent of the power OF Congress to
protect civil rights under Sec
ton 5.
Acting under Section S, Con-
gress in 1875 passed the Civil
Rights Acts. One major provision
made it a misdemeanor for pre-
prietors of inns. public convey
ances, theaters and other places
of amusement to deny equal en-
joyment of their facilities on ac-
count Of race, color or previous
condition of servitude." The Su-
preme Court held that and several
other provision unconstitutional
in 1888. The court declared that
the amendments opening section
referred to positive acts by State
officials and not to acts by private
individuals.
For almost ree-quarters OF a
century Congress has shown little
inclination or enough votes to do
anything under the amendments
Section S. Now it is being urged
increasingly to enact some "ap-
propriate legislation" not neces-
sarily to get back to 1868 but to
face realities OF 1868. ~

came up with a more compre-

which, with some changes, even
tually became the Fourteenth
Amendment 1t contained a COM
promise version of the defeated
Stevens-C onkling bill. But It did
not include suggestions by Ste
vens and others for outright Fed
eral granting of the voting priv
ilege to Negroes.
An earlier draft of the Four
tenth Amendment as proposed
by the Joint Committee but later
considerably modified in Repub-
lican congressional caucuses
stated:
Congress shall have power to
make all laws which shall be
necessary and proper to secure to
the citizens of each State all the
privileges and immunities of citi-
zens in the several States, and
to all persons in the several States
equal protection in the rights of
life, liberty and property"

Joint Committee on Reconstruc-
ton, Congress passed a series of
bills beginning early in 1866. One
of these, the Freedmen's Bureau
Act, included civil rights of Ne
groes under the Federal military
jurisdiction in those States. Pres
ident Johnson vetoed the bill and
was upheld in Congress.

Rights Protected

AS 1t finally emerged, the
amendments first section pro-
vided that all persons born or
naturalized in the United States
are citizens of the United States
and the State in which they live,
and also declared:
mo State shall make or enforce
any law which shall abridge the
privileges or immunities Of citizens
of the United States; nor shall
any State deprive any person of
life, liberty or property without
due process Of law; nor deny to
any person within its jurisdiction
the equal protection Of the laws"

acres, she now finds a lot of
time to spare.
Her activities outside her
home have been in church
groups. She visits art galleries
in Washington at least once a
month, and she and her hus-
band have been active members
of a play reading.
Mrs. Hurley's chief concern
has been with her children
this has been my life's work."
A college graduate who has
studied abroad and is fluent In
French, Mrs. Hurley would be
interested in some activity
which would utilize her talents
during the day. Perhaps as a
lay assistant in the public
schools.
But Mrs. Hurley points out
that on today's job market, the
educated woman in her age
group finds it difficult to get a
job in her chosen or former
field because in all probability
the woman lacks recent aca-
demic training such as required
for teaching, and no recent
work experience.
She deplores the tendency on
the part of most employers to
set age limits for jobs that
could easily be handled by a
qualified woman of any age.
And she was delighted when
she read that one Washington
cafeteria had raised its age
limit to IS.
With so much emphasis on
the status of women In the ma
tons labor force, Mrs. Hurley
questions whether this has en-.
couraged women to go to work
ito feel a part of things" Or
perhaps because of the pressure
OF the times a woman may take
a job because everyone else
does"
On the other hand, Mrs. Hur-
ley points out there does exist
the woman who enjoys her sur
roundings and finds her own
resources at home. But she
must remember that the well
does run dry and must be re.
plenished.
Women in every walk of life
should develop their talents.
But they must strive to strike
a happy balance between their
work and their home life.
