RIOTS LAID TO
HOUSING LACK

WASHINGTON,A u e. 13.-At-
torney General Biddle expressed
the opinion today that improper
housing and recreational facili-
ties for both Negroes and whites
had been a contributing factor
to the Detroit riots and "other
racial or hoodlum clashes in re-
centh months.
Biddle made his observations
in a letter to Lester B. Granger,
executive secretary of the Nation
al Urban League, New York City,
who had written to express con-
Germ over statements attributed
to Biddle reports to President
Roosevelt on racial problems.
Granger said an article in The
New York Post rceated "a storm
of discussion among white liber-
ais, as well as Negroes" in that
many persons have leaped to
the assumption that you have
proposed to the President that
the powers of the federal govern
ment be invoked to control the
migration of Negroes as disting-
usher from other groups of war
workers"
Biddle replied that any sugges-
tions he made to the President
were strictly confidential a n d
that it would be "highly inap-
propriate" for him to comment on
their contents.
Biddle told Granger he did not
feel any effort should be made
to prevent the free movement of
individuals from one place to an
other, whether Negro or white,
except as war requirement for
manpower must be met.
