Tuesday held a loyalty oath in Massachusetts constitutional even though it contained the pledge to oppose the overthrow of the government by force or violence This is the same clause it had found unconstitutional in the 1971 case cited by Simon Cain said that in either case he would not sign that statement after having signed a statement promising to uphold the US Constitution Simon said he has directed all Metro departments to strike from their loyalty oaths the clauses he declared invalid Newly appointed Metro Commissioner Harry Cain has refused to sign Dade standard loyalty oath for public employes and County Attorney Stuart Simon has responded by declaring most of the oath unconstitutional and invalid Cain said he objected to the clauses in the oath asking him to declare he is not a member of the Communist Party that he will not lend aid support or advice to the Communist Party that he does not believe in the overthrow of the US or Florida governments by force and that he is not a member of any organization that advocates such forcible overthrow Funds to Bring More Than 2000 Into Teen Kleen CAIN SAID he has no objection to the loyalty first clause1 which says I will support the Constitution of the United States and of the State of Florida "But it defames my personal integrity to have anybody make the negative assumption that I could be a Communist when I have already sworn to uphold the Constitution of the United he said "I never belonged to any of those Cain said not going to sign that Simon said a quick legal check revealed that the US Supreme Court had

to withhold formal approval for the Coconut Grove portion of the 1972-1973 Urban Renewal master plan They approved plans for the rest of the county But the fight w'hich filled the County Commission chamber with angry black residents white storeowners and Urban Renewal officials developed over whether to include in the Coconut Grove Neighborhood Development Program (NDP) a block of land bounded by Grand Avenue Margaret Street Florida Avenue and McDonald Street Helen Chasan Dolinger owner of one of the few commercial buildings on the block angrily protested the planned inclusion of that entire block in the NDP which calls for condemnation demolition and replacement by Urban Renewal projects Mrs Dolinger said her late husband had owned the building for 27 years and that for 18 years he had leased part of it to a black businessman for Barbecue She said she has plans to tear down the dilapidated building and build a new one reserving much of the ground floor for Barbecue Mrs land is slated in official plans to become a low-income apartment building The Rev Canon Theodore Gibson Little HUD Advisory board member and now a Miami Commissioner pleaded passionately to the

would include an 18-hole golf course a 23-acre park and 3000 townhouses drew a favorable reaction Tuesday from the Hialeah City Council But a homeowners group that has pushed for a much larger park on the same property immediately vowed to fight the proposal step of the when it is formally presented to the zoning boajd and again to the council The proposal was made by Larry Griggs a Coral Gables developer who said he is negotiating to buy 365 acres of largely vacant land from longtime Hialeah land owner John DuPuis Griggs told the council that he and his financial backers whom he did not identify are paying DuPuis about $17 million for the land THE LAND stretches from Eighth Avenue west to the Palmetto Ex of the townhouses would be two stories except for the center of the tract between Eighth and 12th avenues which would have three-story structures The density in that section would be between 25 and 30 units per acre Filer said That would fit into classification Griggs said the townhouses would be priced for and would range from about $20000 to about $35000 Dorothy Symonds of the Hialeah Improvement Association a homeowners group which has sought a 143-acre park on the land between Eighth and 12th Avenues asked the council to at least consider a compromise between the 143 and 23 acres but council President Jack Weaver said the city could not afford to acquire the land Mrs Symonds said the Improvement Association would oppose proposal when it comes before the zoning board which could be as early as next Wednesday The following ships are scheduled to arrive today at Port of Miami pressway and from 37th Street north to 44th Place It is by far the largest piece of undeveloped property in Hialeah lying east of the Palmetto Expressway Griggs and his architect Jerome Filer also of Coral Gables said they would build a 120-acer golf course on the western part of the tract between 12th Avenue and the expressway and give it to the city after 30 years the period of time it would take for golf course revenues to pay for its construction No city money would be tied up In the golf course development they said In return for the course and 23 acres adjacent to Meadowlane Elementary School 4280 Eighth Ave which would be donated to the city for a park Griggs said he wants a zoning variance that would allow him to build 3000 townhouse units
