I THINK IT IS ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY THAT ALL
PEOPLE HAVE THE RIGHT TO MOVE ABOUT FREELY IN
THIS NATION, TO PURCHASE AND TO SELL. I DO NOT
THINK THAT THERE SHOULD BE ANY RESTRICTIONS
WHATSOEVER BASED UPON RACE, COLOR, CREED,
ANCESTRY, OR RELIGION. I THINK THAT OUR LEGISLATION
ATTEMPTED TO DO AWAY WITH SUCH RESTRICTIONS.
