advised.

Pennington Engineer Brewer
Defended by Navajo Tribe

THE FARMINGrON DAILY
TMES--LaWrence A. Brewer. in
Dependent engineer. presented a
Letter 10 the Farmington Town
Board Tuesday night from the Nav
ajO Tribe declaring that Brewer had
not discussed San Juan River water
rights with the Tribe.
The letter. signed by Walter
F. Wolfe Jr.. associate attorney
for the Tribe, said that Brewer
had brought to his (Wolfe's)
attention the fact that Framington
town officials had indicated sac
cording to press reports. that he
(Brewer) was 'instrumenta in in
teresting the Tribe in some Ham,
mOnd ditch water rights %
To the best of my knowledge,
Mr. Brewer has never discussed
the San Juan River rights with
the Tribe. Certainly he has not
attempted to interest the respon-
Sible officials Of the Navajo Tribe
at Window Rock in Hammond Ditch
water rights" Wolfe's letter said.
The Tribe has been approached
by various ranch owners in the
Farmingron- Bloomfield area con-
cerning various Hammond Ditch
water rights. Perhaps there has
been mistake in Identity"
Brewer presented each town
board member with a copy of the
letter after directing some
questions to Trustee Richard
Brambleete concerning remarks
BrambleGte made about Brewer at
a previous board meeting.
(The board recently discon-
tinued the services Of Brewer after
engaging him to do some work
concerning town water rights in
the state engineers office. Bre -
wer's services were retained after
Brewer reported that he had been
to the state engineer s office where
he said he had been told the
municipality's water rights were
in jeopardy
Brewer first read a paragraph
from a Daily Times account of
the meeting at which Brewers
services were discontinued in
which it told of Bramblette' re-
marks concerning Brewer.
''Did you make this statement p
Brewer asked Bramblette.
81 did not say you were un-
ethical. | may have minated it,"
Bramble9re replied. IL said that
if these things / had heard were
true they were unethical.
Either you said it or the
paper reported in error" Brewer
said ''Did you say it7''
Then the exchange went like
this:
Brambleete: ''Who gave you the
authority to 60 down and see the
state engineerT'
Brewer: "Anybody can 60 to
the state engineers office.''
Brewer then said, Then the
paper is at fault.
That's your conclusion" re-
piled Bramblette.
Brewer told the board the state
mem had been damaging to his
reputation. He said Bramblette

This was q bit odd, since
South was Bob Hannah, :

Just to make sure of the

he hadn't been sure Of the

The coup was fancier. Mr..

lands trespass law and the
newly enacted amendment to
it prohibiting racial diScrimina-
ton in places of public accom-
modations we're in a legal haze
today.
Baltimore County police Of
ficials were given a briefing
yesterday after a policeman
repeatedly ordered four New
Jersey integrationiSts to leave
a United States Route 40 res
taurant on the grounds they
were violating the State tres
pass act.
Police Chief Robert Lally
called his top officers to a
meeting to explain that the
trespass law no longer can be
used in Baltimore County to
bar Negroes from motels, hotels
ana restaurants. Inc county Is
one Of II, plus Baltimore City,
that come under the provisions
of the new public accommoda-
tions amendment.
Ignorance Of Law Cited
Parran Mitchell, executive
secretary Of the Maryland Com
mission on Interracial Problems
and Relations, said that ignor-
ance of the new public accom-
modations law was at least
partly responsible for the de-
NAL of service to the four New
Jersey integrationists. The

Postom did not object and
Judge Jones permitted her to
take the stand. However, be-
fore She said anything damag-
ing, her husband objected
again and this time Judge
Jones refused to let her con-
tinue.
The judge based his ruling
on . 1853 Supreme Court case
which held that husbands and
wives cannot be forced to tes-
tify against each other and
that either spouse may claim
the privilege.
The court Of appeals, in an
opinion by Circuit Judge Will
bur X. Miller, said that the
1861 statute took the District
out from under the Supreme
Court rule.

were ordered to leave the res
taurant by a policeman after
the waitress read them the
Maryland law governing tres

Mr.. Mitchell said he hoped
the incident was only IAN iso-
lated instance.
Frankly, I don't think the
owners of restaurants along
Route 40 would do anything to
jeopardize the peace of the
the State" Mr.. Mitchell said.
Liquor Area Barred
The restaurant owner, Louis
Fiddler, said however, that he
still would refuse to serve
Negroes in his dining room
since liquor is served there in
addition to food. Mr.. Fiddler
said places that serve liquor do
not come under the provisions
Of the equal public accommoda-
tons legislation.
He added that he would
gladly serve Negroes in his
coffee shop, where liquor is not
served.
Chief Lally said after meet

police district commanders or
their supervisors henceforth
would respond to trespassing
complaints.

to show in the hearing that
organizations cited by the House

months of racial unrest in
Danville.
Delegate w. Darlington
Thompson of Pittsylvania
County read sections Of a report
of a State investigative commit
tee, the Committee on Offenses
against the Administration of
Justice.
One section said the Southern
Christian Leadership Confer
ence, the Congress on Racial
Equality and the Southern

brought racial litigation in

Mr.. Thompson also read a
section which said these groups

There were these other de-

This rule only applies to sit
uations where the wife was a
witness to an event which any
other person could have wit
messed; and not to events or
information she obtained solely
because of the confidential re-
lationship of the marriage.
In addition. Judge Miller said
the wife should have been asked
outside Of the presence of the
jury whether she wanted to
testify against her husband.
The court affirmed Postom's
conviction. He had specifically
objected to his wife taking the
stand at all. But the court
held that she. not he, was the
only party who could object to
her testifying.

Solicitor Joseph Allen said
Maryland's trespass law cannot
legally be used to enforce racial
segregation because it would be
a violation of the 14th Amend
ment to the Constitution.
In a brief prepared for the

Allen argued that the 14th
Amendment prohibits any State
from denying any person equal
protection of the laws.
Mr.. Aliens brief will be filed

tons law invalid because it
conflicted with the State

DANVILLE, Va, Aug. l
CAP. "A medical report was
awaited today that would de-
termine the availability as a
witness of a Negro civil rights
leader who has said blood
would flow in the streets If
some of the Negroes demands
are not met here.
Avon Rollins Of Knoxville,
Tenn, a member of the Stu
dent Non-Violent Co-ordinat-
ing Committee, failed to answer
a subpoena to appear yester-
day in Danville Corporation
Court at a hearing on whether
a temporary Injunction barring
demonstrations should be made
permanent.
His attorneys said he was too
Ill to appear and had been hos
pitalized. A bench warrant was
issued for his arrest, and the
city was granted permission to
send a doctor Of its choice to
examine Mr.. Rollins.
HOspitalized
DR.. Robert E. L. McNeely
told Police Chief Eugene G.
Mccain last night there was
an indication Mr.. Rollins was
suffering from increased spinal
fluid pressure. DR.. McNeely
planned a more thorough ex-
animation today after ordering
Mr.. Rollins to remain In the
hospital overnight.
AS the hearing went into It's
fourth day, the threat of
further demonstrations was
issued by the Rev. L. w. Chase,
president Of the Danville Chris
tian Progressive Association.
There was no demonstrations
last night, as he had limited,
but the possibility remained
they might be resumed today.
The Danville Jail was free of
demonstrators for the first
time in weeks as the last Al in
custody were released on bond
yesterday.
Attorneys for Mr.. Rollins said
he blacked out during a noon
recess Of the court yesterday.
He was treated by a Negro
physician, DR.. Jerry Luck, and
hospitalized. Dr.. Luck told the
court later he had given Mr..
Rollins a sedative when he re-
gained consciousness but felt
he could testify.
In a printed bulletin, Mr..
Rollins had said that unless
the white power structure of
Virginia and Danville begins to
respond with justice to the fair
demands made by its citizens,
there will be blood flowing in
the streets" He said those who
are violent are beginning to
outnumber those of us with a
nonviolent persuasion"
Before the question Of Mr..
