Mixed reactions greet Sirica's school order
UPI reports mixed reactions as Judge John J. Sirica orders a government drive to enforce Civil Rights Act Title VI in 32 districts across the North and West, including Chicago and Los Angeles, amid long delays and disputes over HEW enforcement. Civil rights figures praise the ruling while HEW officials challenge the factual basis and seek reconsideration. The order spans 17 states with districts under scrutiny for segregated schooling practices and compliance plans.
