Michigan Committee on Civil

in Michigan and with the
\ Citizens Committee on Group
Tensions in the interest of the
passage of an ordinance giv-
ing a legal basis to the former.
Mayor's Interracial Commit-
tee. This latter ordinance was
passed but Rhodes warned
that petitions are currently
being circulated which would
have the effect of possibly res-
cinding the action of the
Common Council by placing -
the issue on a referendum for
Detroit voters. Members of
Council affiliated organiza-
tions were warned not to lend
their names to these peti-
tions which were described as
being misleading in their text.
,
The Council has taken an ac-
tive part, Rhodes reported, in„
the operation of a statewide
commission selected by the -Gov-
ernor to watch for bigotry and
-the injection of racist' issues in
last Fall's election. The president
and the executive director of
the Council were designated as
members of this commission.
Similarly, the Council had initi-
ated a request to the Governor
for legislation allowing the use
of the absentee ballot for reas-
ons of religious observance.
