Strana 159 - We hold that insofar as the challenged amendments operate to directly displace the States' freedom to structure integral operations in areas of traditional governmental functions, they are not within the authority granted Congress by Art.
Strana 59 - Amendment has been characterized as a 'truism,' stating merely that 'all is retained which has not been surrendered," United States v.
