dividuals and organizations found
guilty of rioting or melting to riot

must be eliminated as we'll"
Seeks Special Grand Jury
The U.A.W.-C.IO. proposes:
(1) Creation of a special grand
jury to investigate the causes of
the riots and to return justifable
indictments. All Detroit citizens
should be asked to furnish what
ever pertinent evidence or informa-
ton they have. A competent Negro
attorney should be appointed as an
assistant prosecutor to work with
the district attorneys office and
the grand jury.
(2) Immediate construction and
opening of park and recreation
facilities. 1t is a disgrace to the
city that the normal, inadequate
park space was permitted to be
overtaxed further by the influx of
hundreds of thousands of new war
workers. It is not surprising that
the riots started at Belle Isle Park.
(3) Immediate and practical
plans for rehousing Negro slum
jewellers in decent, federal-fnanced
housing developments.
az Insistence that plant man.
agements as we'll as workers recog-
nize the right of Negroes to jobs
in line with their skill and SEMI
ority.
(5) A full investigation by the
special grand jury of the conduct
of the police department during
the riots. While many policemen
individually showed heroism and
respect for their oath by trying to
protect innocent victims of the
riots, the work of the police depart
ment as a whole was weak and
ineffective. 1 believe that any de-
cent police work could have cleared
Woodward Ave. early yesterday
and not have permitted mobs to
form and reform constantly
throughout the day.
(6) Special care by the courts in
dealing with the many persons ar
rested. Those found guilty should
be severely punished. There must
be no discrimination between white
and Negro rioters.
(7) The loss of homes and small
businesses, as well as personal in
juries, is the responsibility of the
entire community. The city should
create a fund to make good these
losses of innocent men, women and
children, so that the resentment
which will be an aftermath of the
riots may be minimized.
(8) Creation by the mayor of a
special bi-racial committee of 10
to make further recommendations
looking toward elimination of
racial differences and friction. This
will have a special job
in connection with our high schools
where racial hatred has been per-
mitted to grow and thrive in recent
years."
Immediate Action Asked
Thomas declared that these rec
should be enacted
while Detroit's Indignation over
mob rule is still hot.
Thomas complimented U.A.W.
members and officials, saying that
'the fact that there was no fric-
ton or trouble in the plants showed
that our membership, white and
realized their highest re-
sponsibilities and carried them
out"
