ALLEN CHRISTOPHER DAVIS, Complainant,

and

IOWA CIVIL RIGHTS COMMISSION

vs.

LOCAL P-3 RETIREES, INC., Respondent.

IT IS ORDERED, ADJUDGED, AND DECREED that:

A. The Iowa Civil Rights Commission has failed to prove, by the greater weight of the evidence, Complainant Davis's allegations (a) that Respondent Local P-3 Retirees, Inc. effectively denied him rental of the Respondent's hall through different treatment on the basis of race because he was required to hire police officers as security in order to rent the hall; and (b) that Jessie Taken, who was acting on behalf of the Respondent, made blatant discriminatory remarks regarding Blacks renting the hall.

B. Therefore, this complaint is DISMISSED.

Signed this the 6th day of December, 1995.
