Housing Bias
Reported TO
Commission

MEMPHIS, Tenn, June q
(AP)-Charges Of discrimina-
ton against Negroes in housing
and job opportunity came out
in testimony at the final ses-
sion Of q Federal Commission
on Civil Rights hearing here
yesterday.
A Negro minister said that
Southern Negroes are shut out
Of skilled jobs, and q Negro
lawyer said lending agencies
conspire to maintain segregated
housing for Negroes.
The testimony came at the
final session Of the two-day
hearing, one Of a series simed
at gathering facts on living
standards and opportunities for
Negroes in urban areas.
A. w. Willis, tr., a Negro
attorney, said both private and
Government lending agencies
ARE trying to introduce now
in 1962-the old separate but
equal doctrine for housing"
THE Federal Housing Ad-
ministration talks and thinks
separate housing" Mr.. Willis
said. ut is unheard Of for a
Negro to live in a white SUBJ
division. There Is no free mar
ket, where a man can buy as
his money dictates. Housing
is rigidly controlled by banks
and mortgage agencies"
Under persistent questioning
by the commission members, j.
E. Kerwin, insuring officer at
the FILA office here, said:
Can a Negro get an FILA
loan? Yes. he most certainly
can. I'll say this, however, II
don't think he could buy any
house he might want"
Auvergne Blaylock, head of
a building firm that specializes
IN Negro housing, accused the
city and county of blocking
Negro subdivision development
to pacify protesting whites.
A Negro minister, the Rev. j.
A.. Mcdaniel, charged that labor
unions make it difficult for
Negroes to work up to skilled
jobs. He said most locals bar
or discourage Negro members,
thus keeping Negroes from
working at skilled trades or
even becoming trade appren-
tees.

Eckersley came around to the
opinion, late in 1917, that too
much money was going into
surface work and employed
another mining engineer to tell
him so. The new mining engi-
neer agreed and said extensive
trenching done would serve no
useful purpose. This coupled
with restrictions of World War
l brought another bad luck day
to mining here. Mining opera
tons closed down again in Octo-
Der 1917.
But Eckersley, according to
Terry Inaglls, had a bad case of
"gold fever" Chronic gold
fever, ingalls, said, as an all
ment for which no cure has
been found. Your temperature
slowly rises and stays up. You
gamble your wits against ma
ture, searching rocks for indica-
tons that will lead you to bet
ter ore and a pocket of free
gold. You can't resist the urge
to put in just one more round
of shots. You prospect the creek
to hit pay dirt, then the thrill
of panning off the loose gravel
down to the fine black said, and
finally in the last shake of the
pan, pointing up the rich yellow
grains, brings true adventure.
The Eckersley gold fever
caused him to open the Mary
land Mine again the following
spring and for the first time
working the mine became a SER
ious mining operation rather
than one of prospecting and ex-
ploration. After unwatering the
mine down to the 200-foot level,
the vein was fund to measure
