Then authorities strengthen their forces in Harlem and Bed- ford nt, the Negro areas be -- awe and Brook- lyn res ively, where one per- son was killed and millions of dollars in property were dam- aged in July, 1964. New York has been quiet. so far. No incidents have reached alarming proportions. Even a protest march called by the Congress of Racial equal- ity after a white policeman killed a Negro in Brooklyn--an incident strikingly similar to the one which preceded last year's riots--drew only 150 marchers and almost no spectators. SLIGHT CHANGES The city has instituted few striking changes in its attempt to deal with its racial relations problems, The most obvious--and they are " Ated a great deal of credit for the peace so far this year-- were the appointments of three Negro policemen to key posts in Harlem. Civil rights groups hailed one long-sought goal several months ago when Police Commissioner Michael J. Murphy unexpect- ~ resigned to take another The Congress of Racial Equal- ity in particular had long been critical of Murphy, claiming he refused to view Negro-police relations as a sociological prob- lem, rather than strictly as a police problem, Murphy, however, had the backing of Mayor Robert F, Wagner, and he denied that Negroes were treated any dif- ferently, by the police. Murphy's successor, Vincent L. Broderick, has repeatedly told his 26,000-man force that a man who cannot treat all per- sons equally has no business in a police uniform, Both commissioners opposed CORE's demands for a civilian police review board to. deal with charges of alleged police brutality. Other changes have taken the form of stepped-up poverty and social help programs, and some- what greater unity among the numerous Harlem leaders, who were often publicly at each oth- ter's throats in the past. No one is saying these things will prevent a riot, but they are given credit for the peace 80 far. The Amsterdam News, Har- lem's largest Negro newssaner, ran an editorial recently credit- ing social action projects. In Harlem, where resentment |was directed both at the police land at the white merchants who own the great majority of Har- lem's numerous small stores and services, there has been lit- tle change in the business com- munity. The number of Negro sales clerks and Negro-owned busi- nesses is virtually the same, Negroes tend to believe that white store owners have no in- terest in the community whose economy they control. The com- mon cry is, 'They made their money in Harlem and take it home to white neighborhoods," Two men who manage na- tional chain store branches in Harlem add that a shifting of more Negro policemen to Har- lem seems" to have lessened tension. By Paint Brush TORONTO (CP) -- Richard Gorman is one of a small group of painters who make movies with a paint brush.

Gorman got started when he found old cowboy movies in the attic of his parents' home, He began painting around the im- ages with plastic paint so that the figures became moving ab- stract forms. It took him three months of 18-hour days to paint and edit the 30,000 frames of. an eight- minute movie satire on west- erns, He is currently working on a three-part color epic that will run 45 minutes, A sound track is being composed in electronic music by TV producer Jim Guthro, Manning Will Talk Against Medicare CALGARY (CP) -- The Al- bertan says Premier E.
