KLARK'S GREAT it; quit leader's alleged refusal to conduct the funeral, charged this week that "fraudulent things are happening" in Bishop Horn's Mount Calvary Pentecostal Faith Church and that "everything should be investigated." The Willie Holley family, con sisting of five boys and four girls, seemed more Jaitter than their father, however, who told The AGE that he was inclined CAROLYN CROSBY STANFORD, nurse consultant In mental health for the state public health nursing department, conducted the original research in a pilot study at Syracuse Psychiatric Hospital. A grant of $104,455 has been made by the U. S. Public Health Serv ice to the state department' mental health research unit and' the public health nursing department at Syracuse's Upstate Mental Center, to provide training for public, health nurses. to forgive Mother Horn for not attending his wife's funeral but, as Mr.

Holley put it, "I'll find it mighty hard to forget." It all started two weeks ago when Mother Marie Holley. 50, of 159 14 Harlem River died in Harlem Hospital following an illness of three weeks. She had been ailing for months prior to her admittance to the hospital but managed to attend church as usual. Sister Holley, as she was fa miliarly known, passed away on Feb. 4 and was subsequently buried in her native Hertford, N.C.

Her husband, Willie, was hospitalized during the same pe riod as a result of surgery but was able to accompany the body South for burial. Meanwhile, the Holley children discussed the circumstances surrounding their mother's contributions to the church and concluded that Mother Horn' conduct was open to serious questions. Their father agreed but expressed the fear that the Lenox Av. church woman might retaliate by put ting the "whole family out of touch with the Holy Spirit." Friends of the family tipped The AGE off regarding the controversy and scores of anonymous telephone calls this newspaper and the Holley family followed. One caller suggested that the Holleys' telephone had been tapped and that, if editors, nf The AGE were not careful, Mother would have them crsrwling around on their knees "like dogs." Another claimed that on the night of Sister Holley'a funeral, Monday of last week, Mother Horn was in her office at the church but refused to take part in the service.

For the first time since the Riverton apartments were con structed, tenants of the 7 building development seemed bent on or ganizing themselves into an effective consumer group this week following a public rally in PS 197, across the street from the giant housing project.

Jones, a lawyer, the mass meeting last Thursday night attract ed an overflow crowd of more than 700 tenants who listened in tently to reports from Jones, chairman of the temporary com' mittee; Commissioner Mangum and William Fletcher.

Piror to the rally, Clifford L. Alexander resident manager of Riverton, mailed a 2 page let ter to every tenant in the build ings explaining management's concern with safety measures in the future and emphasizing that, although Riverton guards do not have the powers of arrest, the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company expects its security force to protect human as well ai property rights.

four vital housing bills which have been introduced by StateJ Senator James L. Watson, Man hattan Dem. Lib. The Watson housing program, calls for an all out attack on dis crimination in privata housing and strong measures aimed aC rooting out slumlords. 1 The anti discrimination bilt calls for amendment to, the State Constitution, rather than just a new state law, prohibiting discrimination in any housing fa cility throughout the State bef, cause of race, creed, color or naj tional origin.

Watson ha introduced a bill which calls for a jail lentence ot up to 30 days for landlords on their conviction for violation or the Multiple Dwelling Law, 90. days for a second conviction' and up to six months in prisooj for the third offense. "This bill, if passed, will bring to a halt the present widespread practice of slumlords going into, court and paying a small finej rather than fixing up the dilapW dated dwellings, and will also, give the courts the necessary; powers to demand action, with the! jail threats," Sen. Watson saw.

"Far too many landlords todaf are causing untold suffering anl misery on tenants throughout Harlem because of the lack of adequate laws to provide enforce ment. If these four bills are; passed, I am positive they will go a long way to bringing al most immediate improvements in many of our present housing units," Senator Watson stated.
