We have succeeded in greatly weakning H. R. 6127, the so-called civil rights bill. Two important amendments have been approved! by the Sen- ate. One of these amendmnts re moved the old Reconstruction Pe riod provision for the use of mili tary forces to carry out the civil rights laws. The other amend men! of great importance was one to strike out Part 3 of the bill. This was approved by a vote -of 52 to 38 and was a major victory] the possibility of such an evil day for those of us who are fighting against passage of this bill. Part 3 would have permitted the Attorney General to use the power of c|vil injunctions in school segregation cases and in other cases in which violations of civil rights laws were charged. HARD FIGHT STILL FACED However, we still face a hard fight against the other provisions of the bill. It is becoming more and more difficult to hold the support of many senators who supported the South on earlier votes. It remains to be seen whether they will continue to do so on jury trial and other vital points which must be settled. ‘ We are trying to amend the bill ia. every way-possihle. to weaken the power to subpoena witnesses to appear before it and testify. It would also have the authority to go into a federal court and se cure an order ,to force a person to appear before the commission. If the witness failed to comply with the order, he would be subject to being put in jail without the right to a trial jury. __ COMMISSION COULD INTIM IDATE SCHOOL OFFICIAL * Since the duties of the Com mission would consist of studying and collecting "information con cerning legal developments eon- FOR ATHLETES FOOT .

Of course, the only persons who the entire bill. I have ssid that no civil rights bill will be ac ceptable to me. That is still my position. However, it would be foolish not to amend the bill in every way possible, because if the radi cals and liberals should succeed finally in forcing through a bill, we want it to be the least effec tive measure possible. Efforts to amend the bnll arefin no wise an admission that some form of civil rights legislation will be passed; it is simply getting all the insur ance we can in advance against Phone 74 A/HiRiauv-£$taitdai>d WINTBR, SUMMER AND VffAR ’ROUND AIR OONDITIONKRtf.
