SATURDAY. JULY 29,1967 THE MICHIGAN DAILY MArTn. SlY f. 97 H MCIGN.~ Legislators To Continue Riot Probes Senate Leaders Say Johnson' s Committee Not Enough for Them WASHINGTON (A - Congress is going ahead full throttle with multiple investigations of city rioting without waiting for a pres- idential commission to inquire in- to causes of the violence. Senate leaders Mike Mansfield (L-Mont) and Everett M. Dirksen (R-Ill) praised President John- son's appointments but said in separate interviews' that formal organization of the White House group today will not slow down congressional action in the field. Joint Investigation Mansfield said: "The appoint-' ment of the commission will not stop consideration of a resolution to have a Senate-House commit- tee make an investigation. Very likely a resolution will be voted out.,, Dirksen pointed to a scheduled hearing Wednesday by the Senate Judiciary Committee on the. House anti-riot bill as the focal point of an immediate' inquiry into the violent civil disorders. The committte has altered its rules to permit live broadcasting of testimony and has asked Atty. Gen. Ramsey Clark to be the first witness. It is requesting Mayor! Jerome Cavanagh of Detroit to testify. Broaden Terms The committee plans to call other mayors and civil right lead- ers with the obvious intent to broadening the terms of the House bill before it. The bill at present would make it a federal offense to cross or communicate across a state line with the intent of inciting a riot. The Senate juvenile delinquen- cy subcommittee heard an appeal yesterday from Clark for action on a bill which would prohibit the interstate mail order sale of fire- arms to~ individuals, ban dealers from selling' hand guns to non- residents of a state and tighten controls for import of weapons. Chairman Thomas J. Dodd (D- Conn) said he will offer the meas- ure as an amendment to the anti- riot bill. Presidential Inquiry - The presidential inquiry com- mission, headed by Democratic Gov. Otto Kerner of Illinois, with Republican -Mayor John Lindsay * of New York as vice chairman, meets Saturday morning at the White House with Johnson. Dirksen said. he thinks it may take time for the commission to organize, obtain a staff, review the riot situation and get its in- quiry going. Mansfield and Dirksen agreed it will take congressional action to make disaster relief funds avail- able to devastated Detroit. Cava- nagh has proposed such action. Nation Waits For Return Of Stability -Associated Press NEGRO LEADERS Roy Wilkins (left), executive secretary of the NAACP who is a member of President Johnson's Special Advisory Commission on Civil Disorders, and Dr. Martin Luther King (right) said yesterday that white Americans and black Americans "must work together." They spoke, along with Mayor Ivan Allen Jr. (center) of Atlanta, Ga. at the International Platform Asso- ciation convention in Washington.

The arrests were looked upon as a precautionary cleanup, and there was no indication that a coup was in the making because. none of those picked up in the past 10 days had troops to sup- port them, the sources within the military said. The Java military command at a meeting last week resolved to crush all Sukarno supporters. Three of those detained are known as chronic intriguers, with strong Sukarno ties. Suharto Worried The army first announced 10 days ago that 15 military men had been arrested for pro-Sukar- no activity detrimental to the "new order," meaning the mili- tary backed government of Gen. Suharto. Suharto has often ad- mitted he does not command the loyalty of all military elements. The public was startled earlier this week when it was announced that 20 more men, including some officers, were arrested from the ranks of the Strategic Army Re- serve Command. Informants said most of those in the second group were detained for criminal acts in Jakarta. Most of the pro-Sukarno group of military men picked up were former members of the Brawid Java Army Command that con- trols East Java, where Sukarno was born. Long known as the "East Java group," several have been held for interrogation two or three times since Sukarno was pushed from power last year. The names are being kept secret by army authorities. ,One man known to be under arrest for his pro-Sukarno activi- ties is Brig. Gen. Sukendro. He was arrested three weeks ago before, and possibly as a re- sult of information from him, the army picked up the 15 other military men. Some were released after a few days of interrogation. Indonesia's top surviving Com- munist, Sudisman, was sentenced to death Thursday for being in- volved in the attempted Red coup of Sept. 1, 1965, that led to Sukarno's downfall. The army killed thousands of Communists in the aftermath of the uprising. Philadelphia LeadersTerm Anti-Riot Action Premature, PHILADELPHIA (/P)-A group of 150 Negro and white leaders condemned Philadelphia's limited. anti-riot emergency proclamation yesterday as "premature and an incitement to riot." They insisted' it "has increased the tension" and urged its immediate withdrawal., The bi-racial group suggested the best way to avert instant vio- lence in the nation's fourth lar- gest city is with 10,000 more jobs for Negro males, more sidewalk sprinklers, more playgrounds for children, and immediate block by block extermination of slum hous- ing rats and vermin. Assembly Law Mayor James H. J. Tate invoked a 117 year law Thursday night in directing police to prohibit groups of 12 or more people from gather- ing on the streets and in open areas; except for organized recre- ation. He said he took the action -effective at least until Aug 11- as "a preventive measure to pro- tect the lives and property" of the city's 2 million citizens, one third Negro. The protestors, however, said in bers of his 5.900 member force with machine guns, shot guns and high powered rifles, ordered distri- bution of 100,000 posters bearing the proclamation. They were tacked on poles and trees and placed in store windows, barber shops and libraries. Levy Anderson, first deputy city solicitor, said police will use dis- cretion in enforcing the emergency law, and won't interfere with peaceful gatherings, including civil rights demonstrations. But he emphasied any group of 12 or more "where there is a potential for violence" will be dispersed. terday morning as a precaution., Some gas bombs were thrown Wednesday night after a 22-year- old Negro was shot and killed. Cincinnati, Ohio, listed just six fires - after the50 Wednesday night. But one caused $100,000 damage to a furniture warehouse. Michigan Locations In South Bend, Ind., where 300 National Guardsmen stood by, there was a flurry of firebombs, but rain helped cool off the re- bellious teenagers, police said. Police in Muskegon, Mich., pop- ulation 46,500, arrested 40 persons after a gas station was set afire by a firebomb. There were 12 fires and 10 arrests at Flint, Mich.

News Roundup By The Associated Press DETROIT - General Motors Corp. said yesterday it remains opposed to giving the United Auto Workers Union a profit sharing plan in the upcoming negotiations. Ford Motor Co. and Chrysler Cori, have not responded to the union demand, but all of the au- tomotive Big Three rejected prof- it sharing proposals in 1961 and 1964. * * * DETROIT-Ford Motor Co. yes- terday reported a whopping drop in net income and sales for the second quarter of 1967, compar- ed with 1966. Henry Ford II, chairman of the board, said consolidated net in- come in the second quarter of 1967 was $146.5 million, equal to $1.34 per share.
