In Sit-Ins
Foreseen
NEW YORK—Constitutional law
experts expect integrmtlonista to
win a momentous legal battle be
fore the U. 8. Supreme Court in
civil rights test cases Involving po
lice arrests of sit-ins based on char
ges of criminal trespass or disor
derly conduct, Tha Insider'* News
letter said Monday.
According to The Newsletter,
the NAACP will ask the High
Court to bar such arrests sn
the ground that the use es pub
lic law enforcement officers
and the court* to support pri
vate discrimination la unoeusti
tutionsl.
If the NAACP wins the case, in
tcgiationists will have chalked up
their most important legal victory
since the 1954 school desegregation
decision.
The lesult, The Newsletter says,
is that Southern police would
their weapon against sit-in demon
strations and that private business
es might react to such a decision
by hiring "private police' to re
move unwanted- customers. This In
turn would probably necessitate an
other Court decision on the extent
of private property rights.

for the Ralelch area beginning
