The open-housing demonstration in the city's South Peering area was witnessed by 1,500 shouting, angry white persons who stood along the tree-lined residential streets and threatened the comparatively small parade.

King, who led 500 persons into the area Sunday, was not in Tuesday night's demonstration. Leaders of the Chicago Freedom Movement announced a march would be held today in the West Elsdon area, an all- white neighborhood adjacent to Gage Park on the Southwest Side where some of the most violent white reaction to the demonstrations has occurred this summer. A force of 450 blue-helmeted police formed a cordon around the demonstrators and effectively kept violent action in check in South Deering. Sixteen persons were arrested. Most of the offenders were caught firing stones, firecrackers and bottles at the marchers.

One policeman was felled by a brick and was treated at a.hos- pital. The prevailing placards Power," "White Trash," "The Zoo Wants You" were YOUTH SENTENCED COLUMBUS, Ind.

When we can go to any real estate office in Chicago and find an apartment or buy a house, that's what we call success." King spoke to a student rally of 400 persons at a Southwest Side church, shortly the South Deering'march.

"Not only are we going to walk in Cicero," King shouted, "We're going to work in Cicero and we're going to live in Cicero." Christy S. Eerkos, town of Cicero, which hugs Chicago's western border, sent tel egrams Tuesday to Otto Kerner, King and Albert A. Raby, convenor of the Coordinating Council of Community Organizations. The telegrams to the civil rights leaders expressed a desire -for a meeting with city county and state officials prior to Sunday's march. King said Tuesday night, "I have no plans to meet with the governor." he indicated some of liis aides may attend meetings with Cicero officials.

Berkos and John Karner, village president of Cicero, requested the governor mobilize the Illinois National Guard 'to prevent a recurrence of the rioting 15 years ago'in Cicero that broke out when a 'Negro rented an apartment there.
