ReprehenSibIe Deed
- Editorial -

This newspaper had a report
just before press time that the
home of suspended Minneapolis
patrOlman David Clunis had
been bombed. II the report is
true, the deed was reprehensibIe
and despicabIe, and will be de-
pIOred by the decent citizens Of
all races.
One can be sure that whoever
committed the deed, of what
ever race is not interested In
racial cooperation and harmony
in the community. Every effort
should be made to apprehend
and convict the perpetrators Of
such crime. Nothing beneficial
can be obtained in any COM
munity by violence of this kind.

Cong. MocG cGregor In
Thick Of Rights
B0ffIe In CONGRESS

Third District Congressman
Clark MacGregor of Minnesota ex-
planned what he considered the
chances Of new civil rights legis-
lation at a press conference Thurs
day afternoon, June 20.
Congressman MacGregor came
to Minneapolis shortly after both
houses Of Congress received Presi-
dent John F. Kennedy's recon-
mendations for civil rights legis-
lation.
Five of the six recOmmenda-
tlOns were similar TO proposals
already approved by House Re-
publican policy committee Con-
gressman MacGregor claimed.
The Minnesota Congressman ad-
mitted that the liberal Repubh-
cans such as he were disturbed
over Republican minority leader
Senator Everett Dirksen's attack
on the public Accommodations law
section Of the civil rights package,
as IAN invasion of private prop
erty rights"
MacGregor exhibited a five page
letter which he had sent to SEN
ator Dirlsen questioning the Him
ois solon's claim that regulation
of privately owned public accom-
odations like motels, hotels, rest
aurants would be unconstitutional.
Mr.. MacGregor detailed the
struggle which he and other Re-
publican Congressman had made to
convince the President that the
best public Accommodations bill
would be one which uses the 18th
Amendment as its basis, rather
than the us. Attorney Robert
Kennedy's plan to attack race dis
elimination in public accomoda-
tons via the Interstate Commerce
route, which was set forth in early
discussion Of proposed civil rights
laws.
Congressman MacGregor pre-
dicted that all Of the Kennedy
proposals would be passed ex-
cept the public Accommodations
after q considerable debate.
He was not too optimistic about
passage Of the laws against dis
elimination in public accomoda-
tons because Of the expected
strong finbuster and some opposi-
ton from strong elements in both
parties.
Macgregor told how he and two
other members Of the House jude
iary committee Reps. John v.
Lindsay Of New York City and
William M. McCulloch Of Ohio
have been working for several
months drafting civil rights legis-
lation, for introduction in Congress.
The need for strong civil rights
Legislation has been apparent for a
long period, the Minnesota Con-
gressman noted In his press con-
ference.
Congress has a moral mandate
to enact such legislation as win
protect the citizenship rights Of
every American the Minnesotan
stated.

Situated on a tree-shaded knoll
overlooking McColley's Pond,
this outstanding example OF
Georgian architecture was built
In the 1780's by James c. Doug
las and shortly thereafter became
the home of his son, Walter Doug
lass, whose bride, Harriet, was
sister of the aforementioned
John M. Clayton.
According to local legend,
"Mordington", in pre- Civil War
days, was "station" on the So
called underground railroad"
used by runaway slaves enroute
to the North and freedom. While
a tunnel allegedly used by these
slaves has long since been seal
ed, evidence of slave quarters
may still be seen In the cellar
and on the surrounding grounds.
The present owners of Nor
olngton have furnished 1t with
many beautiful antiques and have
success S sfulIy preserved the
charm of this gracious, old resi-
dence.
Perhaps the oldest house on the
Sussex County side of Milford is
the Causey House, at 200 S. Wal
nut Street. Once (1736) the man.
sion house of the 1900 acre Levin
Crapper plantation, it was re-
nodded In 1855 by Governor
Causey, from when it takes its
name, and still displays evidence
Of its early elegance.
Milford also offers such land
marks as Egglinton Hall (1792-
80 with later additions In the
early 1S0o's), S. E. Second St.,
near Fisher Avenue, another
plantation house; the T. C. Col
Inns residence (1794), 2o5 S. E.
Front Street; the Torbert House,
S. w. corner of N. Walnut and
N. w. Second Streets, built about
1925 as a tavern on what was
then widely used stage route
and which later became the home
OF General Torbert of Civil War

Sydenham Thorne and Joseph
oliver, the community, from its
earliest days, has been the trad
ing and culture center of large
area. Despite a consistent : but
not spectacular growth, the
community and its citizenry have
carefully preserved relics of an
eventful past.
Milford derives its name from
a mill located by a ford on the
Mispillion River. While thisp
ticular mill has long since dis
appeared, buildings still remain
that, like the mill, played impor-
tant roles in the development Of
the community.
Focal point of this years "Old
Milford Days" will again be the
Parson Thorne Mansion, located
on "Silver Hill" (501 N. w. Front
st.
The early residence Of Co
founder Thorne, this English Col
onial type brick structure was
once part of the Saw Mill Range,
a pre- Revolutionary War grant
from the Duke of York. After
passing through many hands, the
Parson Thorne Mansion was ac-
quired in 1862 by the Milford
Historical Society, as gift from
James Richard Draper, a men,
Der of a family long associated
with the Industrial life of the
area. During the past year, much
has been done to restore the
mansion to its former stately ap-
pearance and proceeds from the
September 21-22 observance will
be used to further this resor-
alton.
A small family burial plot near
the mansion contains the graves
of the parents of John M. Clay
ton, a Delawarean who attained
international stature as sec
retary of state In President Zach
cry Taylor's cabinet.
Christ Church, on the corner
of Church Avenue and N. w. Third
Street, is another historic build
ing that will undoubtedly attract
the interest of "Old Milford
Days" visitors. Still used regu-
larly by an Episcopal congre-
cation, this handsome religious
edifice was begun In 1871 by the
Rev. Thorne, its first rector, on
land donated by the other CO
founder, Joseph oliver. It still
retains many features that tie
1t to Milford's earliest days.
Of great beauty and historic
interest Is "Mordington", the
