    Statement by Jack Greenberg 

Re: New Jersey College of Medicine and Dentistry 

Friday, December 29, 1967 

On advice of attorneys of the NAACP Legal Defense and 

Educational Fund, Inc. (LDF) representatives of the Newark 

Area Planning Association and the Committee Against Negro 

and Puerto Rican Removal will not participate in today's 

meeting with trustees of the New Jersey College of Medicine 

and Dentistry, which has been called by the Committee of 

Concern, 53 Washington Street, Newark at 12 noon. 

Our clients received notice of the meeting only yes- 

terday and staff lawyers, who had previous committments, 

are unable to attend. 

We and our clients are awaiting a response to our 

complaint filed December 20th with Robert Weaver, secretary 

of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. 

The LDF, in that complaint, outlined its opposition 

to two applications of the Newark Housing Authority which 

seek federal urban renewal assistance in acquiring over 

150 acres for the Medical College.
