Benjamin Banneker was born in the mid-1700's in Maryland. He attended school with both black and white children. His main interests were in science, mathematics and astronomy. He became so proficient that he was named to the commis– sion which eventually laid out the plans for Washington, D.C. Those plans of Washington, D. C., have been slightly al– tered within the last week. Black people have finally tired of living in slums two miles from the grandeur of the White House and the irony of the entire mystique of the city. The White House is covered with beautiful green lawn, which most ghetto residents only see when passing the White House. One would think that a nation's capital would be the most beautiful city in the nation, but this is definitely not the case with our capital. But if one thinks about the situation, it all fits into the American Dream which does not belong to black people. Police claim there have been six deaths and 1,029 injuries as a result of the insurrection. They reported 5,395 arrests and 814 fire calls since the violence be– gan. Unofficial damage esti– mates have been upwards of $10 million. There are 11,600 troops and police in the city. These figures are startling when the entire concept is taken into consideration. There are more troops in Washington, D.C.. than many parts of Viet Nam. What kind of country is it that has to have federal troops, national guardsmen or city police to make people believe in a cause that has no reality for them? Evi– dently there is a problem within the city that many people refuse to admit ex– ists. Studies have been made on urban ghettos for years with no major changes hav– ing been made after the studies. Where will it all end? This is what the people in riot town cities want to know, and many people whose cities have escaped major insurrections also want to know.

Satisfaction Assured Mrs, Aldridge 7182 Martin Way * Olympia, Wash, * 357-8771 Forrest A. Jenkins of 815 NE Holman St., Portland, has successfully completed the career insur– ance course of the Aetna Life Insurance Co., and is now qualified in the fields of estate and family insurance planning. He is also qualified to handle hospitalization, and disability insurance, in ad– dition to the company's vari– able annuity plan. Marvin T. Benson, Aetna vice president, said Jenkins' success in the life insurance field has been outstanding. "The addition of such a well– qualified and outstanding representative is to the benefit of his community and our company. We at the Aetna are very proud of his association with us,'' Benson declared. The housing discrimina– tion case originally brought by Beverly Williams - who now is Mrs. Jimmy Nichol– son - will be heard in cir– cuit court April 16. Circuit Judge Alfred Sul– monetti has ordered a hear– ing then on the state's argu– ment that the people who re– fused to rent an apartment because of race, have tried improperly to claim that the apartment now has a new owner. Miss Williams and Mr. Nicholson were looking for an apartment where they would live after their mar– riage. They said Mr. and Mrs. Donald H. Joyce, the owners, turned them downbe– cause they were Negro. Miss Nicholson filed a formal pro– test and a citizens' tribunal agreed with them. State Labor Secretary Nor– man Nilsen ordered that the Joyces rent the apartment to the Nicholsons if they still wanted it and pay them $500 for the money the case had cost them. Nilsen said this week the J oyces had not done it and instead had said they sold the apartment to Mr. and Mrs. Leslie J. French. The new hearing ordered by the court includes the Frenches as defendants. Oregon law says owners of property may not refuse to rent to anyone because of race.
