Lesson Gained. Draving a lesson from the dis- turbances, the FBI chief recom-, mended that local police receive better training in riot-control. With their lack of experience, "it took many hours and in some instances days to mobilize enough force locally or from outside to cope with the riots," he reported. Johnson responded by ordering the FBI to make riot-control train- ing available to all police depart- ments In the country. The Presi- dent also directed the Defense Department to increase National Guard riot - control t r a i n i n g throughout the country and to make that training available to local police forces. While racial tensions contribut- ed to the city rioting, Hoover said, none of the disturbances was a race riot "in the accepted meaning of the phrase." "They were not riots of Ne- groes against whites or whites against Negroes," he reported. "And they were not a direct out- growth of conventional civil rights protest." No Group Involvement Hoover made short shrift o' charges that the riots were insti- gated by the Communist party of other organizations. In all cases, mob violence was "dominated by the acts of youths ranging in age up to the middle 20's." The FBI chief blamed what he termed "the breakdown of re- spect for law and order among young people" in part on "an immunity to public exposure for serious offenses and often the ab- sence of punishment of any kind." Riot Areas The riots investigated by Hoov- er's ,men occurred, chronological- ly, in New York and Rochester, N.Y.; ,Jersey City, Elizabeth and Paterson, N.J.; Dixmoor, Ill.; Phil- adelphia, and the seaside resorts Policemen down a rioter in Philadelphia this summer during one of seven riots investigated by FBI Director J.

One of the important points per cent of Tenness in the government's case against the Pickrick was the argument Negro. . that he was involved in inter-<"> state commerce. Mob Activity Hoover recounted a similar pat- tern of escalation in each riot. Each incident was triggered by "violent interference with the po- liceman on the scene, followed by the gathering of a crowd."' Either because of further dis- turbances or "the exhortations of rabblerousers," the crowd was swelled by the arrival of youths "looking for excitement or viol- ence or worse." Crowds became increasingly un- ruly as mob spirit swept through them. .Efforts' by police and oth- ers to disperse the crowd failed, Hoover continued, and "complete defiance of the law and the rights of others grew and fed upon it- self." Halt Riots But "in almost all cases only massive and vigorous police action or the arrival of state police or the National Guard finally brought about a termination of the riots and the restoration of law and order," Hoover said.' Hoover dismissed charges that the riots stemmed from "excesses by the police."
