The Committee on Intergroup
Relations has been especially ac-
tive in trying to implement the
city's year-old fair housing prac-
tees law forbidding discrimination
in private real-estate operations.
Recently it hired DR.. Ernest
Dichter, president Of the Insti-
tute for Motivational Research,
to look into the mental attitudes
of property owners and managers
on this little-enforced law. The
Madison Avenue psychologist came
up with the finding that the pri-
vate operators are "far more ready
to accept the inevitability Of inte-
grated housing than they publicly
admit" and forecast that with a
combination of toughness and I'M
derstanding," the commission, with
the anticipated cooperation of
leading New York City property
owners, "can achieve housing in
tegration in New York City within
the next six or seven years"
