DANIEL HILL, direetor of the Ontario Human Rights Commission (right) addresses a meet- AMHERSTBURG, Ont, (CP) A meeting of "selected" mem- bers of the Negro community here confronted the director of the human rights commission Wednesday night with stories of "racial antagonism." Daniel Hill arrived here late Wednesday, at the request of the South Essex Citizens Ad- vancement Society. At a closed meeting, he heard a number of Negroes tell of Ku Klux Klan slogans painted on walls, insulting telephone calls and a cross-burning incident at a main intersection of this town, about 20 miles south of Windsor. _ Mr. Hill, accompanied by Herbert Sohn, an investigator for the commission, attended the. meeting called when a scheduled march protesting the alleged racial incidents involv- ing the 300 Negroes in the town failed to materialize. After the meeting, Mr. Hill said the only thing he could say was that he came to prepare a report for the commission and \the attorney - general's office land to see if the himan rights |code 'had been bridged." | At the meeting, George Me- ~|Curdy, president of the Essex town. Seated beside him, Wednesday night' is George McCur, president of a local Civil Rights group.

ASKS FOR REPORT Signed by the- deputy attor- ney-general, A, R. Dick, the telegram said he had asked the depuly commissioner of provin- cial police for a report on oc- currences in the community. In Toronto Wednesday night, Dr. Dick said anti-Negro inci- dents in the town of 4,400 are not the result of organized ra- cial disturbances, but the work of young hoodlums, Mr. Dick also mentioned the disturbance last Friday as the town's Drag City Raceway, 'when the owner, Arthur Pare, was. beaten, Two Negroes, Dennis Harris, 17, and Lawrence Hurst, 18, were later charged with ob- structing police. Mr, Dick said the raceway disturbance may have encour- aged "young white punks to) start something." He said if any crimes were involved they were of the petty type.

Mr. McCurdy, who earlier had stated that some incidents here were the work of the Ku Klux Klan, backed, away from this view Wednesday night. "It would be presumptuous to say that the Klan is here," he said to reporters.
