Rights Chiefs Inquire Who Is Investigating
The Ohio Civil Rights Commission asks Cincinnati to name who will conduct an investigation into alleged racial discrimination in city building trades unions. Hugo Sabato says interference from other groups is hindering the state inquiry. Unions deny discrimination and claim no qualified Negro applicants. The commission may issue subpoenas if needed. Also, about 3000 Cuban refugees will attend U. S. colleges with federal loans.
