Mounting Racial
Tension Arousing
Civic Leaders
Signs of heightened race ten-
sion in Detroit were evidenced
last week in developments re-
garding the Schoolcraft Gardens
cooperative housing project and
a meeting of civic and religious
leaders March 21 to consider -
problems posed by reports of
mounting unrest.
Common Councilmen Mary V.
Beck, Edward C o n n o r, Louis
Miriani and James H. Garlick,
voted down a move that would
have side-tracked building of
the co-operative houSing pro-
ject. The matter is now in May-
or Cobo's hands and it is con-
sidered possible that he may
veto the Council's decision, in
an effort to block the project.
The cooperative is also threat-
ened by a temporary court re-
straining order granted Tele-
craft Improvement Assoc., which
opposes Schoolcraft Gardens,
apparently on - a racial basis.
JCC Takes Part
Boris M. Joffe and Dr. B.
Benedict Glaze r, representing
the Jewish Community Council
met with civic and religious
leaders at the Detroit Leland to
discuss mounting racial tension.
The group recommended
unanimously that: the Mayor's
interracial Committee be-
strengthened 'by giving it statu-
tory basis: that it's membership
be made more representative;
that its staff be given civilServ-
ice status.
Joffe, speaking over station-
WDET March 22 reported on the
recommendations and the
group's request that George
Schermer be r°tained as Inter-
racial Committee director.
Meeting later with the Mayor,
the group was told that, con-
tinuance of the Interracial Com-
mittee and retention of Scher-
mer were not definite. Cobo
:urged the group's approval of
'his housing program, which has
been severely criticized.
Board of Education
Another development involved
the Coordinating Council on
Human Relations, an organiza-
tion engaged in bettering hu-
man relations in Detroit. On
March 23 they met to discuss
problems of the teaching assign-
ment practices by the Board of
Education.
The meeting was chaired by
Herman Jacobs, director of the
Jewish Centers of Detroit. The
Council agreed that the present
'method of teacher assignment
practices was a violation of
Board of Education policy. The
Council called for the assign-
inent of teachers without regard
to race, creed or national origin;
a policy not now being carried
Out in the schools.
