"Resolution condei rrom associated rress A resolution denouncing the use of the term "damn niggers" by a retired chief justice sitting as a special circuit judge awaits consideration by the South Carolina House. The measure, which received a favorable report from the chamber's Invitations and Memorial Resolutions Coimmittee, was introduced Wednesday by three black Richland County House members. Rep. Robert Woods, D-Charleston, asked the House today a to give the resolution immediate consideration, but several ^ lawmakers objected, and discussion was postponed until at least next week. IKKMIMAIN Kf.P. ? rank McHridc, tne resolution s principal author, said the remark made by retired Chief Justice Joseph Moss indicated the jurist should no longer be hearing cases. "The resolution is rather mild and does not do violence to Justice Moss but speaks to where South Carolina is now in ^rwiMHB^ 'iw 6\ ' |^1B MF^P^WHBBk ^SKr^9BKm Spend Spring Break in Daytona Beach!

Th<> rpcnlntinn hv Mrllride and I ulhpr T sivlor and James F;abcr expressed the "deep concern and regret" over the remark made by Moss while he sat as special judge in Anderson County last week. "These remarks, if quoted and attributed accurately constitute, at best a disregard of the heritage of many citizens of our state," the proposed resolution said. "ALTHOUGH THKRK arc appropriate judicial commissions and appellate procedures to determine the appropriateness of these remarks as they impact upon the judicial process, the General Assembly . . .is desirous of publicly stating it docs not condone this type of language at any time and especially when used by our state's judicial officials, and . . .it hopes and expects the judicial matters of this state to be conducted in the future on a higher plane," the proposed measure added. fjfer J YOU CAN ^ ATRIP1 Rf *%'Ufa A Spring Bm L ^ ^ -,/WswMPsrAi r 07, W 4hmI Win a ft V 4^^^ Yov and a Fi f _ feJM iNlt^hJo Davtona I. . , UTV MKJt SPBIM0 BREAK I !?

He exnrcssed snrnrise that anvonc would be unset about the remark. which he has denied was meant as a racial slur. The former chief justice used the term Jan. 16 in reference to a group of blacks upset by the conviction of Hobby Ray Harrison, a black, on charges of shooting a white Pendleton teacher Oct. 30. Because the judge's microphone was turned on at the time, his remark was heard by several people in the courtroom and recorded in the official record by the court stenographer. NO FORMAL complaints over Moss' remark had been filed with the Supreme Court earlier this week, Chief Justice C. Bruce I.ittlcjohn said. But McBridc said several citizens have expressed dismay at the remark and asked what could be done. "I think it (the resolution) has a very good chance of passing," he said. "But we'll have a fight on the House floor; I'm sure of that." flit mW ul-tS iKJL \ . ___ _ mm cficooomcw m laflm tvjo.tmool. d WIN h im cn itmu l/l. fci r-: i ir > na .
