AT Aneth the line connects with
the Texas New Mexico Pipeline
going to the gulf coast area and the
Four Corners Pipeline going to the
west coast. A wide variety of mar
kets are thus available for San
Juan County crude. In addition,
completion of the line opens the
way for even more extensions in
the future should other areas ad-
jacent to it become pro ducing
fields.
There has been some specula-
tion to a hookup with the Big F Lat

an adequate production record at

Michigan Adds Teeth
To Civil Rights Ar
Constitution Cow

Lansing, Mich. (ANP) - Two
significant moves in the area of
civil rights occurred here last
week.
In one action, the Michigan
Constitutional convention REIN
forced the civil rights section of a
proposed new state document with
a Civil Rights commission.
The provision for an eight-mem-
Der bipartisan commission was
approved on a Ill to 10 vote.
The commission would have the
power to investigate alleged dis
elimination because of race, re-
ligion, color or national origin. 1t
also would be empowered to sub
pena.
In another development, Gov.
John B. Swanson has asked the
Michigan Supreme Court to step
in and remove the roadblock pre-
venting effective operation of the
controversial Rule 9 barring dis
elimination in real estate transac-
tions.
Swanson said he was invoking a
provision in law never before used,
which provides that the Supreme
Court may remove lower court
Jurisdiction and make its own rul-
ing when the issue was Of great
public moment and requires early
determination.
The Rule 9 controversy dates
nearly two years. The rule was
promulgated by the Corporation
and Securities Commission to pre-
vent real estate and brokers from
discriminating against prospective
customers.

The high Court was asked to
review convictions of "a Negro

in an orderly manner for almost
six hours before they were asked
to leave by the Chief of Police
The Police chief testified that he
had received a bomb threat, and
had asked the students to leave
for their own safety. They refused
and were arrested for trespassing
and interfering with an officer

Chicago Enaets
Law Banning Bios
On HospifoI Sfoffs

Chicago CAMP - An ordinance
which prohibits Chicago hospitals
from practicing racial discrimina-
ton in appointments to medical
stats was enacted last week by
the city council.
The ordinance was approved
three weeks ago by the councils
health committee Of which Aid.
William Harvey is chairman, and
Aldermen Robert Miller, Ralph
Metcalfe and Benjamin Lewis are
members. The four are Negroes.
Introduced to the council In Sep
TENDER, 1860, by Aid. Leon M.
Despres of the fifth ward, the mat
ter was held up pending action by
the Chicago Commission on HUI
man Relations.
A legal ban on hospital discrim-
nation was brought up after a
group of Negro doctors filed suit
charging a large number Of hos
pitfalls with practicing discrimina-
ton by keeping Negro doctors off
their stats.
Under the new law a hospital
can be fined up to 5000 a day for
each day that it discriminates
against any person in appointment
to or employment on its medical
staff because of race, creed. color
or national origin.
The new ordinance is a compan-
ion piece to an earlier bill, which
went into effect in 1855, outlawing
discrimination in accepting patti
ents at hospitals.
Prior to the unanimous approval
Of the proposal by the Council
Committee on Health last March,
Edward Marciniak, executive dir
ector Of the Chicago Commission
on Human Relations, presented a
report showing that % Of the SO
private hospitals in the city hire
Negro staff members.
Thirty-five Negro doctors were
staff members at those hospitals,
Marciniak said.
The ordinance received wide
support among most civic an6
human-rights groups.
During testimony before the
health committee, it was charged
that Negroes do not go to many
Chicago hospitals because Negro
physicians will not refer patients
to institutions where they cannot
practice.
No one testified against the
ordinance. Several physicians and
lawyers were among those speak.
/ ing in favor of 1t.
DR.. N. o. Galloway, former pres.
ident of the Chicago Urban league
told the committee there also Is
discrimination in Chicago area

dents.

THIS NJ THAT
By Hazel Underwood

ON DECORATION DAY


Here where the sunshine hallows
The memories of golden hours
We come with thoughtful reverence
To cover their graves with flowers.
Proof Of that life immortal,
Faithful and strong and sure,
Is this cabel Of true affection
That must to the end endure.
Strong as the force Of creation,
Is this love Of mortals given,
Weaving from human heart-strings
A bridge from earth to heaven.

with the family and decorate the
graves of their loved ones. AS you
walk around in the cemetery, you
recall this one and that one who
has left this world before.
After you have seen a few re-
minders of former years, you begin
to talk Of them. A brother will
call, Just come here and look!
Good old John. It can't be possible
he has been dead all of these years,
but here is the date" Then you
recall many happy times you have
spent with John, and the thought
of him brings memories Of several
other friends. You do not feel sad
at all but happy remembering your
friends and relatives as you walk
back to your car.
Most Of your friends graves have
been decorated but once in awhile
you will notice an empty urn. By
the time you reach your car you
feel as though you have been home
a long time, because you have re-
called so many of the old familiar
names of close relatives and friends.
Now your one idea is to go call
on many of the ones who otherwise
would not know you were home!
New found friends are wonder
full, but there is nothing like step
ping into the home of an old tried
and true friend. While you have
been out looking up the old timers
who were not able to get out, you
learn that many Of your friends
have been calling the house trying
to get to see you and the family.
Finally you get home and find
friends all over the yard waiting
to see you. You talk and talk and
there is so much happiness found
in being with the friends Of your
youth, that time passes.
Finally there are a few left who
join you for dinner. Before you get
up from the table others have
started coming in and the hum Of
voices, talking and laughing starts
again.
Family get togethers at this
time are a happy time. Being there
with those who are still living
gives you a common bond.
All day you have talked about
times when you were younger.
This talk goes on far, far into the
night. There are % Of you under
one roof and naturally, some Of
you find you are not sleepy, and
you go out on the porch and talk
until the early hours of the morn
ing.
BY six o'clock the family begins
getting up and so the new day
begins. After breakfast the family
makes trip to the cemetery, and
the friends you see there are many.
In a small town whole families go
to the cemetery and they walk
around visiting with friends who
are there. You see relatives who
have come from the west and the
east coasts and from the deep
south and from as far away as
Canada.
Your holiday weekend is COM
plete with the trip to the church
where your parents took you when
you were a child. Quite a few of
the friends have left for their
homes, but you enjoy staying over
for a few extra hours.

he hoped to aid In the investigation
Of the riot.
-Four In Critical Condition
Wounded by gunfire were one
official and six members Of the
Nuslims - four Of the latter were
reported in critical condition. A
crowd Of about 200 watched the
battle which involved upward to
100 MUSLIN and policemen
Dead was Robert Stokes, %, Los
Angeles, identified by 1t. Ronald
Williamson as one of the black
suited Muslims.
The battle was touched off early
Saturday during an apparently
minor incident when two officers,
Frank G. Tomlinson and Stanley
Kensic, attempted to question two
men peddling clothes from a car.
Two Run From Police
Police said one peddler shouted:
I'VE didn't do anything. You're
only doing this to us because we're
Muslims."
Denying that they were guilty,
the two broke away and ran to-
wards the Muslin Temple, pursued
by the officers. According to the
officers story, Kensic grabbed one
of the men, and during a brief
struggle, had his gun snatched
from it's holster.
A special officer appeared on the
scene and demanded that the two
leave the officer alone. He fired
one shot In the air to emphasize
his command. The men knocked
Tomlinson to the ground and kick
ed and pummeled him. Tomlinson
was shot as he tried to get up.
Two More Officers Arrive
Two other officers, Richard T.
Anderson, and Donald L. Weese,
arrived in time to see four men
running toward the temple. Ander-
son caught one man as he ran up
the temple steps and pulled him
back.
The excitement brought crowd
pouring out of the temple, and
Anderson was hit on the head with
a five-gallon water bottle. He
claimed he was then attacked by
a dozen Muslims. Weese drew his
service revolver and fired at the
men, wounding several.
A general riot call was sent over
the police radio and rs officers
converged on the scene. When the
battle was over, seven Muslims and
five officers were removed by am
bulance to Central Receiving hos
pital.
Wounded Muslims
The wounded Muslims, all of
whom were booked later on sus-
picion of attempted murder, were:
Robert Louis Rodgers, 81, shot in
the stomach; William Rodgers, 25,
Roberts brother, shot in the left
shoulder; Arthur Coleman, Jr., 20,
shot in the head; Clarence Jingles,
21, shot in the left hip; Roosevelt
Walker, 81, shot in the groin, and
Monroe Jones, 81, shot in the left
shoulder.
Police said at least 20 adult Ne

suited Muslims with brush-cropped
haircuts, were arrested on charges
