commission investigators:
"Generally they don't know
what to look for. A couple

throwing their weight around,
with the attitude 'we're out to
get you.' "
Other companies under
investigation spoke of
relatively good relations with
investigators. .
Allegations began to rise
following complaints initiated
more than a year ago by the
commission against 831 firms.
The commission said it found
race and sex . ! discrimination
in hiring, and! demanded the
companies fill out a lengthy
questionnaire so the
commission 11 could make
specific determinations and
remedies.
It was a 4eparture from
policy which for most of the
time since its creation in 1956
saw the commission acting
only on complaints filed by
individuals in (cases deemed
small by comparison with the
self-initiative .action.
About half 1 the companies
ignored the commission and
failed to return the
questionnaire:
The case has grown to such
proportions a's to include a
court fight-instituted by U.S.
Steel,' one of :the companies
cited and a move by a state
senator to abolish the
commission for overstepping
its authority.
"I Want the commission to
belong to all the people of
Pennsylvania not just
blacks," said Sen. Thomas
Nolan prior' to opening
hearings yesterday of the
Senate State Government
Committee, of which he is
chairman. The Allegheny
County Democrat has
introduced a bill- proposing
abolishment, but, he' and
others see no real chance for
that.
Businessmen and business
oriented organizations said
they are reluctant to go on
record individually with their
views in light of the pending
court case. They - also
expressed some doubt as to
what the legislative probe
would accomplish.

Completion of the Simmons rock , garden is
pending the arrival of the planting season.
According to Otto Mueller, assistant vice
president for housing and food service
administration, the reason the rocks: still are
scattered on the Simmons lawn is because trees
cannot be planted in the middle of summer.
Mueller said, "The landscaping division came in
and laid out the plans for the garden, brought in
equipment to-redistribute the rocks and staked out
the area. But there is nothing else they can do until
planting season arrives." •
He said the rock garden had been planned since
the area was built in 1960, but lack of funds delayed
the project until' last spring.
l'Even before the completion of Pollock Halls, the
area was used as a thoroughfare by students. The
turf was gradually worn down and a paved walk
was installed in 1957.
, "With the completion of Pollock Halls in 1960, the
lawn space was used as an incidental play area.
