Senator Heflin explained that when
the text book bill was reported to the
Senate in the old Congress, he offered
an amendment providing that nothing
contrary to the American principle of
separation of certain States should be
taught in books of the District. Sena-

Chairman Capper OF the District COM
mittee he would not insist on that
amendment to the bill, but would try to
have the legislation he advocated con-
sidered separately.
Senator Capper has stated recently
that the text book bill will be one of
the first measures taken up by the Dis
trict committee during this session.
