Nixon Denies Racial Covenant In Home Deed
Washington reports Nixon denied involvement in a deed covenant barring Negroes and Jews from buying or renting property in Wesley Heights. Georgia’s Fowler claimed a covenant existed. Nixon's aide said no covenant of record plus Supreme Court rulings nullified such restrictions. The covenant dated 1931 ran with the land for 50 years and barred sale or rental to non whites or Jews.
