Attorney General Robert F.
Kennedy said yesterday in re-
signing from the Washington
Metropolitan Club that he could
not In good conscience remain
q member because of its policy
against Negroes as guests.
Mr.. Kennedy made public a
letter to the board of governors
of the club in which he said it
was "inconceivable to me, in
this day and age, that the priv
ileges of this club which holds
such a unique and peculiar
position in the Nations Capital
would be denied to anyone
merely because of his race"
Before release of the letter,
a Justice Department Spokes-
man, in response to an inquiry,
had confirmed a story in the
Boston Globe saying Mr.. Ken
nedy had resigned from the
club.
1t was learned today that
Assistant Attorney General
Burke Marshall, in charge of
the departments civil rights
division, also has resigned from
the club.
Mr.. Kennedy's letter disclosed
that he has been in correspond
ence with the club for the last
six months regarding its policy
on entertainments of guests.
Although some of the Ian
guage In your correspondence
to my inquiry was equivocal, I
had hoped that no one would
be denied the facilities of the
club merely because of his
race" Mr.. Kennedy wrote.
1T has now come to my at
tention that because several
members brought a Negro to
the club as a guest. a severe
reprimand has been issued and
no change is contemplated in
the clubs policy"
Mr.. Kennedy said he did not
challenge the right of members
of anV private prOIlTl TO select
their fellow members, adding:
But l do not believe the
action of your board reflects
the feeling Of the majority of
the membership of the club.
However, the board has acted
and I must abide by that ruling.

inconceivable to me, in this day
