Wolling Instrucfs
Officers On How
To Handle VioIofions

Police officers of he Mime
apOlis Police Department re-
Gently received orders in the
form of a bulletin addressed to
all division commanders as to
how they are to handle them
selves in all cases of unlawful
racial discrimination in public
places.
The order, dated March 26 and
signed by E. I. Walling, Police
superintendent first re-acquainted
officers with pertinent facts of the
Minnesota Equal Rights Law. mo
person shall be excluded, on ac-
count of race, color, national origin
or religion, from full and equal en-
joyment of any accommodation, ad-
vantage, or privilege furnished by
public conveyance, theatres, or
other public places of amusement,
or by hotels, barber shops, saloons,
restaurants, or other places of re-
freshments, entertainment, or ac-
comodations."
Proper procedures were carried
in the order for all police officers
to follow when claims of discrim-
ination were made to them-"go
to the place where service had
been refused, inform the operators
of the Minnesota Equal Rights
Law, and to act as a witness
should the operators again refuse
service"
In regards to information to the
complainant the order read: The
complainant should then be direct
ed to the County Attorneys office
to obtain a complaint. The police
officers shall give all information
which has come to his attention
to the County Attorney.
The bulletin further stated in
regards to arrests: Arrests shall
not be made by police officers for
violations of the Equal Rights law,
but it shall be the duty of police
officers to see that there is no
other disturbance created"
Arrests should be made in the
event of disturbance, of all persons
creating the disturbance. When
complaint is made commanding
officers at desk positions will see
that police officers are sent"
Su1a. Walling's order ended with
a stern reminder, "this order must
be carried out to the letter by all
police officers"

we will prevent their use in Min

members were not allowed ac-

lodged.
The Negro players were lodged
in private homes Of Negro citizens.
Griffith told Andersen he could
not do anything about the matter
because the hotel where the team
stops would not change its policy
OF barring non-whites.
Gov. Andersen said the situation
was a reflection upon the Mime
sofa state baseball fans, when
members Of the team are discrim-
mated against in any fashion.
Mr.. Griffith told the governor
he planned to try to amelioriate
the situation next year.
It is understood that the gov
ernor was not satisfied and plans
to urge the hotel at Orlando to
change its policy by next season.
1t was the Minnesota governors
position that no athletic team
amateur or professional which
caters to the general public of Min
nesota should stand for having any
of its members humiliated by race
segregation practices, or any other
unfair restrictions, not visited
upon other members.

management had ignored its COM
plants for several years, and this
year the branch decided to picket
the park when the team opened
the season to dramatize the un-

ment of players of Negro descent
at spring training camps.
Governor Andersen told this
newspaper that the presence of the
Twin in Orlando, Fla, brought
considerable economic profit to
the city. He said he felt sure that
if the team was forced to train
elsewhere, the city would see the
need of arranging that all players,
regardless of racial background
were accorded the same accomoda-
