Congress Nears Passage
Of Civil Rights Laws
WASHINGTON (IP) Congress moved two steps closer
yesterday toward passage of new civil rights legislation, but
the end appeared to be weeks away.
The House Rules Committee, which has been taking its
time since last August. agreed in
formally to clear a bill for House
consideration.
The Senate Rules Committee
received a bill from its chairman,
Sen. Thomas C. liennings Jr (D.-
Mo), designed to help Southern
Negroes vote with the aid of fed
eral officials.
Hennings, however, sent word
he was ill and asked that action
on his measure be delayed.
House consideration may come
next month. with March 10 a like
ly starting day for debate.
The House committee acted
under pressure. About 209 mem
bers of the House were reported
to have signed a petition that
would take the legislation away
from the committee for direct
action. Only 10 more signatures
would be needed.
The bill the House will get
would make it a federal crime to
oppose court orders for racial in
tegration of schools by force or
threats of force. It would also re
quire preservation of local voting
records, give the FBI a freer hand
in checking on bombings, and
provide schooling for children of
servicemen stationed in• areas
where public schools were closed
to avoid mingling of Negro and
white pupils.
Amendments to broaden and
tighten the bill probably ;will be
permitted under the parliamen
tary situation in which it will
reach the House.
