The NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.

school segregation bill was passed last

The same assemblymen also annouuc-
ed their intention to bring all possible
pressure to bear on the Senate to see
that this bill, st least, is passed without
material amendment. This attitude, vi
is believed, is designed to hold the anti.

the passage of the measure over Cover

simultaneously, the people of the
auti-Japauese counties, OF the State, are
aye also preparing to keep az eye on
their legislators.
Today delegations from those counties
began to arrive and will remain for to-
morrOw's session, when a vote will be
aiken on the consideration proposition.
These delee ations busted themselves TO-
day working among the legislators in
order TO strengthen the snti.JspaOese
force.
II now seems probable that the bill
will not be recOnsidered by the lower
house. Whether the Senate will vote
