PLAINFIELD John Vincent Gleason Jr., was killed last night by a gang of Negro youths in a third night of violence in the patrolman , NEGRO LEADERS MAKE CLAIM POWDER KEG OF UNSOLVED ISSUES THE OSHAWA TIMES, Monday, July 17, 1967 Broken Promises Sparked Newark Riot? By LEE LINDER NEWARK, N.J. (AP)--Negro leaders say the Newark riot was caused basically by the same things that have caused racial rioting and chaos in other ur- ban slums. They say Negroes were fed up with broken promises for new low-rent housing, better schools, better jobs and equal justice from police. This was the powder keg of unsolved issues, simmering for many years through many hot summers, that exploded vio- lently last Wednesday night after the arrest of a Negro cab driver. The bloody rampage--which so far has resulted in 24 deaths, 1,100 wounded, 1,300 arrested and property loss of more than $5,000,000 -- was blamed on "racist, brutal white cops and a n.ayor who refused to work with poor, helpless, frustrated people," said Oliver Lofton, ad- ministrator of the Newark legal services project, which oper- ates on federal anti - poverty funds. Here, as elsewhere, it was a minor unconnected incident that ignited the powder--and it was during the hot, humid summer nights on steamy, crowded side- walks. It's a time when idle young men, without jobs, money or a place to go, seem to vent their frustrations with sudden fury. That's how it went in 1964 when minor traffic mishaps triggered violence and looting in North Philadelphia and New York's Harlem. And it was something similar in Los Angeles' Watts that erupted into the worst U.S. racial rampage in August, 1965, when six days of burning, loot- ing and shooting killed 34 and caused $50,000,000 damage. Last year Negroes revolted in Chicago and Cleveland, and this year in Boston, Cincinnati, Ohio, and Tampa, Fla., and Buffalo, NY. Everywhere the complaints were the same: housing, jobs, education, and end to poverty and police brutality. Lofton, a former assistant U.S. attorney, heads a staff of 14 that represents taxi driver John W. Smith and more than . 1,000 adults and teen-agers ar- rested in what Governor Rich- ard J. Hughes described as a "criminal insurrection." The governor said only three of four per cent of the city's 200,000 Negroes were involved in the rioting, and he blamed a "criminal and subversive ele- ment"--perhaps as few as 20 or 25 persons--for continuing the rebellion against law and order. He said the rioters were "peo- ple who say they hate the white man but who really hate Amer- ica." Lofton said Hughes was '"'dead wrong." What bothered the Newark Negro community more than anything else were three things. 1, The recent all-out effort by the mayor. to locate a new state medical school in the Negro slums. The school night dis- place as many as 22,000 per- sons. 2. The effort to name a white man as board of education sec- retary, for a school system that is 70 per cent black, over a Ne- gro they felt more qualified. 3. Whether the anti - poverty program should be handled by the poor. Robert Curvin, former Con- gress of Racial Equality leader, said Negroes aren't opposed to developing the area where the medical school would be built-- acres, not 150, and the rest set aside for low-rent homes and parks. "We have held many demon- strations and sit-ins in the past but we have achieved nothing," said Curvin. "There has been absolutely no concession, no compromise, no offer from the city government to aid the plight of the poor." Jesse Allen, head of the peo- ples action group, said: 'Kids in the ghetto have no spending money and can't get jobs. Everyday we have many kids begging for help in getting work, "And there's also no recrea- tion areas and when the kids don't work and have no place to play, they stand around on the street, and then the police come along, and tell 'em to move on, but they have no place to go.
