Denial of Lodging by Omaha Legion Club Alleged
A Negro minister alleges an American Legion post refused him lodging, prompting the NAACP to plan charges under Nebraska Civil Rights law. He says Rev. A Houston-Gordon, visiting from Chicago, was told a room would be available, then told it was not after officials learned his race. Rev. Edward A Hawley of Chicago had registered to share the room. Gordon, a veteran, says the denial reflects bias by Legion officials.
