him burial Wednesday because
of his race.
Services had been held for
Mr.. Nash and his coffin lowered
into its grave next to his wife's
when it was ordered removed
by White Chapel off1cials on
grounds the dead man was nom
Caucasian.
The cemetery's refusal to bury
Mr.. NaSh-who died Sunday of
a heart attack at the age of
66-drew a strom of protest
from Michigan government,

officials.
An offer to bury the veteran
in Arlington National Cemetery,
final resting place for many Of
the Nations war veterans, was
rejected by Mr.. NaSh's son,
Vincent, 80.
The son said "the family
decided that the people OF
Michigan have been so good to
us with offers of sympathy and
support that we could do no
better than to bury Dad here
in the State"
He said he and other men,
berS Of the family were con-
Sidering removing the remains
of their mother, Cassie, from
White Chapel, where she was
buried in 1949. He said there
was some question about bury
ing their mother in White
Chapel but she was entombed
there after cemetery officials
accepted her as Caucasian.
E. Reed Hunt. a Detroit at
torney and president Of White
Chapel, said the cemetery was
restricted to Caucasians and
Mr.. Nash knew this. He said
that when Mr.. Nash purchased
the plot he was sent a form to
certify that he was Caucasian
That form never was re-
turned" Hunt said. If we
made an exception in this case,
