Decision Causes
Much Concern

A decision made this week by
Circuit Judge Guy A. Miller in the
case OF Woodmere Real Estate COM
nay versus DR., Samuel Byron Mil
ton ct al. caused much concern and
criticism Of the judge here this
week.
Judge Miller ruled the defchdanis
had a figh, to buy property in a
so-called restricted area but they
could not live upon the premises.
In July OF 1891. the Millions pur-
chased some property near Frazier
avenue and Visger road N River
Rouge and spenc approximately
$1,000 improving the property,
which they later occupied.
The white real estate company

casians from occupying the proper
ty, Judge Miller handed down his
decision in this matter this week.
it was disclosed by defense atror-
neys, Henry B, Taliaferro and Ed
ward Turner.
The defense counsels commended
the issue involved concerned the
human rights OF all persons as
guaranteed by the constitution and
the citizenship rights Of all persons,
Irrespective Of race"
He could have decided in favor
of the Negroes and still have been
within his legal rights" one de-
tense attorney stated
However, it was disclosed Judge
Miller stated he was not interested
in the social Importance Of the
case, in spite OF the fac' that the
present war is the ou,growth OF The
denial Of human rights 10 certain
races and classes Of people as point
ed. out TO the court by defense
counsel.
The decision stated, the suit TO
restrain violation of The following
restrictive covenant, which appears
in the chain of title Of properties
owned and occupied by the de-
PENDANTS who are colored."
The decision states further: an
accordance with rules laid down
many times by the Supreme court.
restrictive covenants will not be
abrogated until it can be said az
firmstively that they are no longer
Of value to the parties to them q.
They (plaintiffs) are therefore en-
titled to relief as prayed against
occupancy, bur not against owner

Thus, a Negro may own proper
ty, but he may not occupy the same

against their occupancy OF the

It was disclosed that defendant
parties involved in the suit were
much d.spleased by tn, ruling Of
Judge Miller, who was disclosed as
a member OF the NAACP., which
champions the rights and causes Of
Negroes in their fight for equal
and just rights.
The defense counsel disclosed
they wanted the judge 10 rule on
human and citizenship rights OF in
dividuals as il applies 10 all citizens
and which is guaranteed to all by
the constitution.
Instead, the judge, according to
the defense attorneys. ruled on the
property rights seemingly in the
case and missed the social impor-
lance Of the question involved IN
the case.
