War workers not factor in Detroit riots says sociologist
Dr C F Ramsey director of Michigan Welfare says inquiry of nearly 500 rioters found war influx from the South almost no factor in the Detroit violence. He notes most interviewees had lived in Detroit over five years and that rioters were employed in good jobs with no discrimination in schooling or work. Death toll reaches 34 with 25 Negro and 9 white victims. Curfew remains overnight with federal troops on duty since Monday.
