man Of Detroits Restaurant asso-
citation. and other restaurants
looked to Greenheld's for its policy
in spite OF the Michigan Civil
Rights Law. Smaller managers
would say TO CORE testers,
"Greenfelds won't serve Negroes
and gets away with it, and so can
l."
Greenhelds was a key restau-
rant, therefore, TO the anti-Negro
policy of the city's restaurants. and
its opening up is very significant
change.
Case History
When an inter-racial CORE
group entered Greenfield's over a
year ago. the Negroes were at first
fatty refused. They did get food.
however, through the mistake of
one OF the mattresses. But when
white member appealed to the
fair-play of the customers, boos
drowned him out. When the Ne
groes left. the Southern waitress
and the bus boy smashed their
dishes on the floor. II was learned
later that the waitress had been
told that they would not have to
pay for dishes smashed in this
cause!
Visits to Mr.. Simondson. the
owner, were made by various
CORE members to discuss the
whole problem. He was impressed
with their sincerity and their real
desire 10 understand his side OF
the question. One white member
Of CORE even took a job as bus
boy in order TO get behind the
scenes, to And out who controlled
the practice. and to try TO liberal
ize the help. Inter-racial groups
and Negroes alone. with white
CORE members nearby, continual
ly visited Greenield's.
A year later, final inter-racial
test group went in. This time there
was no hesitation in serving, nc
glages from the floor. The grour
ate and left. Since then-almost
six months there has been nc
discrimination. The pattern in
Greenfield's is one of democracy
and the help and the clientele are
beginning to accept it naturally.
Committee Of Racial Equality
The Committee OF Racial Equal
ity. or CORE, is an inter-racial or
ganization with one purpose: Ia
eliminate racial discrimination
wherever ii is found. CORE has
one method: non-violent. direct
action. 1t first tries to show the
offender by discussion OF the evils
OF discrimination. II the person
will not change, however, CORE
insists on removing the injustice
by direct action. CORE will not
allow any of its members to use
violence, for violence creates
hatreds and seldom solves the
problem.
CORE hopes that more Negroes
will use Greenfield's in order TO
solidify its present policy Of serv-
ing all. CORE cannot guarantee
that there will be no discrimina-
ton; perhaps a new Southern wait
ress will show her displeasure. but
there has been none for over six
months. Negroes must use Green
fields and make firm this gain for
democracy. so that help and GUS
toners will take il for granted
even when the war boom is over.
