Civic Federation
Studies Bias Law

The Montgomery County
Civic Federation last night
agreed to further study a re-
quest to the County Council for
an anti-discrimination ordi-
nance.
The Legislative and Legal
Action Committee reported to
the federation that it sup
ported the general tenor" of
the proposal but that to urge
the county to enact these laws
now would be premature"
John F. Ellis, committee
chairman, said action was not
urgent, that the county had set
an anti-discrimination prece-
dent in its recreation policy
and that there were mo specific
discriminatory problems"
In other business, the group
recommended that the cost of
arterial roads be levied on the
community.
