HOLLYWOOD, Nov. % (AP).
-Movieland night life, in the
doldrums of late so far as
brawlS are concerned, came to
life Thanksgiving eve with a
reported SUGGEST featuring
Judy Garland's estranged hus-
band versus a producer.
Observers said the encounter
between Sid Luft and Producer
Charles Straus was more than
the usual one-punch affair.
One estimated it at 3 minutes,
with many blows and much
graphing, at least six tables
overturned and a block of
diners - including celebrities
scattered.
The arena was the Slate
Brothers Club on La Cienega
boulevard. The brothers them
selves, Henry and Sid. inter-
vened to halt matters.
Mr.. Straus could not be
reached for comment afterward.
Mr.. Luft later gave this
account:
"I had never met Straus be-
fore, but I had heard last week
from an authoritative source
that he had been making sar-
castle remarks about me.
IT asked for an apology. He
became abusive. I told him
that Henry Slate was a friend
of mine and that I did not
want to start a fight in the
club. I suggested that We step
outside.
"Straus continued his abuse.
I am not a man who can stand
that sort of thing forever so
hit him"
The affair had this in COM
mon with past FINLAND
fracases: Apparently no one
was hurt.
Mr.. Luft. Miss Garland'S
long time manager, now in
volved in a divorce action with
her, was at the club with Syrry
Steffen, former Miss Iceland
Mr.. Straus repeatedly was with

che too has clashed with the
Ordinance.
Bernard Loshbough, execu-
tive director of Action Housing
Inc, thinks he knows how to
accomplish indignation and
stop the exodus of white popu-
lations from city centers.
Contrary to the common
real estate agents claim that
no one is investing in inte-
grated housing, Mr.. Loshbough
is doing Just that - and in
the low and middle incom e
bracket where prejudices and
housing needs rival each other
in strength.
Three years ago, Action
Housing put up the money for
an apartment development
called Spring Hill Gardens. 1t
was aimed at an income level
between $4,000 and $1,000.
Mr.. Loshbough promise d
prospective white customers
that Negroes would never hold
more than 20 per cent of the
apartments.
Although most of the whites
expressed grave apprehension, I"
he said, there has been no
racial trouble"
Residents have been polled
every six months on the sit
uation to make sure things
were satisfactory. They are.
Contrary to the expectation,
it was difficult to wean the
Negro away from his own COM
munity. The 20 per cent quota
was not file until over a
year-and-a-half after opening.
This statistic might again in
dictate that it is almost as diff
ficult to get the Negro to in
tegrate as it is the white.
Mr.. Loshbough's firm is fl
nancing the construction of
/ 400 homes in the $4,000 cat
egory.
WED sure as hell like to
make it a balanced COM
munity," he said. Gle deplores
the word quotaD But now he
is wondering what can be done
because of the strong oppo-
Sition of the Commission.
Thus, in the cold war of in

power (such as a court injunc-
tom to keep a housing unit
open until a case is settled.
Pittsburgh has no such power
but has been successful in US
ing a quasi-legal technique OF /,
requesting landlords to keep the
unit open during the case.
New York complains that the
court Injunction process is
often slow and should be speed
ed up by having a representative
of the corporation (city) coun--
sci on their staff.
Both cities agree on cover
age. The New York City law is
similar to what some sources
say is being proposed for the
District. Pittsburgh feels that
the requirement of owning five
or more housing units is need
less and hindering.
Authority Seen
If a transaction in Pittsburgh
is not handled by a real estate
agent, the commission has to-
look through the records Of 80
districts to see, if the landlord
or agent owns five pieces of
property.
On Tuesday the Districts le-
gal staff reported to the Com
miSSioners that they have au-
thority to ban racial housing.
discrimination in the District.
The Corporation CounsePs
office qualified this opinion /.

first have found that such dis,
elimination results or is likely
to result in danger to the lives,
limbs, health, comfort, quiet or
property of the inhabitants OF.
the District of Columbia"
The resolution passed by the
House District Committee has
expressed disagreement with
this Interpretation.
Behind the opposition was
the strong overtone of South
ern domination in the House
District Committee.
They will be changing things
that have been going on for
time immemorial," said a
source.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1962-11-22

, resulting Indignation has gon
smoothly.
A conversation with William
Yeckley, president of the Pitts
burgh Real Estate Board, re-
vealed a kind Of schizophrenic
view of the law.
He admitted there have
been few repercussions. What
changes there have been have
gone relatively smoothly
Change among real estate men
is a gradual thing. But look
at the Highland Towers Apart
mentS, which are very ritzy.
They have four to five Negroes
in there"
But the next moment Mr..
Yeckley will say, I'VE still be-
lieve, despite figures to the con-
trary, that whenever two or
three Negroes move in, people
begin to worry about the value
of their property" His position
remains the Same-the law is
unconstitutional, an infringe
ment on private rights.
CriticiZes Agents
Mr.. Mason had little good
to say for the real estate
agents.
"Our efforts to cooperate
with them have not been sue
cessful at ALL" he exclaimed.
And as in New York, his
most potent weapon was the
public hearing.
Discrimination is no longer
popular, said Mr.. Mason. The
real estate agent doesn't want
to admit he is prejudiced. He's
afraid it will hurt him."
1t is as facile and wrong,
of course, to stereotype re a i
estate men as it is the Negro.
The real estate man is in the
difficult position of trying to
protect the prejudices of his
customers. And whites DO move
away in the low and lower
middle income housing when
Negroes begin to inundate the
area.
A Possible Formula

man is an integrationiSt. Yet.

tegration and housing, idealist
opposes idealist.
The District of Columbia
draws together the forces of
the free world. And. it is the
focus of the eyes of the world,
AS such, it differs from both
New York and Pittsburgh.
The District is now the only
major American city having a
Negro majority-54.8 per cent.
The white exodus has been
rapid.
The diplomats add to the al
ready high proportion of Dis
trict Negroes who can afford
better housing. Over Al per
cent of Washington's nom
white families earn more than
$4,000 per year. Some $4,000
of them earn more than the
$500 per month required by
FILA and VA for the purchase
of a $4,000 house.
Whereas both Pittsburgh and
New York have large areas of
white housing within the city
limits, the District has a rela-
lively confined-and exclusive
And the suburbs are closed.
Although so-called prestige
suburbs are off-limits to Ne
groes in the two other cities,
token indignation exists in
some middle income suburbs.
Outside of Seat Pleasant, Md,
nothing is available to the Ne
gro in Washington suburbs.
Northwest Remains
All these elements serve to
increase the pressure on the
District. The only outlet is a
jump across Rock Greek Park
into the Northwest. Un-
doubtedly this last remaining
citadel would suffer greater
pressure than is felt in white
areas in New York or Pitts
burgh.
The presidential order BAN
ming discrimination in housing
built or purchased with Fed
eral assistance could open up
housing in Maryland
and Virginia. The pressure
would thus be taken off the

4 Northwest-the bottle would be
uncorked.
At least this is the theory of
Commissioner Walter N. Tobri-
ner. But many observers feel
that the impact of upper-in-
come Negroes on the North
west would still be negligible
even without the presidential
order.
/ And whether the white popu-
lation would move out under a
moderate influx is highly de-
batable. The high income,
highly-educated white, like his
Negro counterpart, apparently
can accept the challenges of
Indignation.
Advice for District
Both Pittsburgh and New
York had some emphatic ad-
vice for a budding bias law in
Washington. Speed and cover
age are the two essentials. they
say.
Speed of action is evidently
the biggest problem. Unless the
commissions act quickly, the
complainant often loses inter-
est, gets another apartment or
is scared off. Sometimes the
agent or landlord can't be
found.
New York feels the Is I'M
paid commissioners hinder their
operation rather than help it.
No action can be taken
whether private hearing or
court action - without the per-
mission of the commissioners,
Several of the staff feel the
commissioners lack any real in
tereSt.
Mr.. Mason in Pittsburgh feels
that his Is commissioners are
a help. They are an influence
throughout the community in
their particular circles" he said.
Fifteen commissioners could
well have a greater impact in
a city the size of Pittsburgh or
Washington than in New York
City.
Both New York and Pitts
burgh agree that the commits

Housing Other Cities Cite Experiences With Ordinances

Continued From Page AL
Negroes-firSt in the West l03d
street area, a fringe sc 9tion
relatively integrated, and then
in Harlem.
-Four of five Negroes said
they had never heard Of the
Commission on Human Rights.
Nine said they had heard Of
it but could not say what the
commission could do for them.
The pattern was the same in
1e3d street and Harlem.
.One knew. He had a masters
degree from the University of
California. But would he use
the commission? No.
1--WE had experience with
those commissions before" said
George Rice. Il went to the
ACLU american Civil Liber-
ties Union when I got picked
up for no reason by the police.
One of the officers kept my
tighter. But l never heard any
thing from the Civil Liberties
Union"
Yet almost every Negro in
the integrated area could tell
you which apartments were
closed to Negroes. The COM
mon attitude was one of hope
lessness, of sarcasm. and final
ly of not wanting any change.
Many Are Accepted
What had happened to those
Negroes who had won new
housing in all white apart
ments or housing areas?
The case of Mr.. Smith was
typical. On his first day in his
new abode in Harlem he stood,
groceries in hand, in the ele-I
vator. A white man entered and
sensed that Mr.. Smith was the
new tenant he had heard about.
"I'll be darned if I'll move
out of here because Of you,
said the white man. He intro
duced himself and as he left
the elevator said, Welcome
aboard, Mr.. Smith"
The whites have not moved
out. The property values have
not fallen. Construction has
continued. The real estate men
are still in business-but no
happier than before.
THE mountain labored and
brought forth a ridiculous
mouse" said Gen. James An
drews, head of the mortgage
department of one of New
York'S largest real estate agen-
cies. THE effect of the law is
almost zero"
Change Realty Tactics
Gen. Andrews said real es-
tate men have changed tactics,
They delay, now. They don't .
say: Go to hell, anymore. They
lose the application sometimes.
You know, dilatory tactics.
They say they will call you back |
and don't"
Miss Barbara oliver, in
charge of rehabilitating a sec
ton of Manhattan, explained
another technique: THE real
estate men now advertise
apartments by areas. not by
specific apartments. You may
see /, 2, 3 bedroom apartments
in the E. 10th street area. priced
SITS to $3.50. The dealer will find
some reason to turn a Negro
away. Since no specific apart
ment is involved it is difficult
to prove prejudice"

one club. You hold:
Al V876 pAKQ95 AJ764
