Resident Manager (AR & Tery THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C. SATURDAY, OCTOBER 25, COLOR LINE URGED IN BLOOMINGDALE Citizens Start Movement to Keep Subdivision Exclusive- ly for White Residents. Hundreds of citizens of Blooming- dale and the surrounding neighbor- hood gathered at a meeting at St. Martin’s Parish Hall, North Capitol and T streets, last night, to devise means to keep their community and property exclusively for white resi- dents. It was decided to form a committee to follow up the provisions contained in a resolution adopted outlining a ‘course of procedure to be taken by the residents in this regard, and the meeting subscribed more than $1,100 as a working capital for the organi- zation. Overflow Meeting Held. The meeting opened With the sing- ing of “America,” and the hall soon filled to overflowing, so that it was necessary to conduct another meeting at the same time upstairs. The en- tire affair was remarkable for its lack of animosity. Rev. Dr. H. E. Brundage of the Eckington Presbyterian Church start- ed the business of the meeting with a prayer. Rev. M. J. Riordan of St. Martin’s Church told the assembly that there was no attempt being made to antagonize or abuse an body,-he declared. “We must respect the feelings of others, but we are here ,in defense of our homes. We are not the attacking party. We are suffering mental distress and finan- cial loss, but I feel that if the mat- ter is presented in the right way and an appeal is made to the sense of fairness of the colored people, we will find them, as I have always found them, amenable to justice.” A lotter was road in support of the meoting from Rev. Hugh.T. Steven- son, pastor of the Bethany Baptist Church. Other speakers were Selden M v, president of the North Capi- tal and Eckington Citizens’ Associa- tion; H. A. Gilligan, who presided over the meeting at the request of others, and G. E. S. Williams, who told the audience details of the sale of his home, Minister Heads Committee. Rev. Riordan is head of the com- mittee formed by the resolution and George Milling was temporary secre- tary. Others are to be named. The resolution, which was fnani- mously adopted at both meetings, provides that: An_executive committee from the churches and various civic organiza- tions in Bloomingdale be formed for the purpose of looking after the en- tire situation, receiving complaints, making adjustments, taking legal action, encouraging owners not to get panicky, to keep a list of proper- ties in the section for rent and sale, to spread information and take all proper and lawful steps to preserve the section for white residents.
