more warShips are en- route there

HOUSE READY
!. FOR VOTE ON
LYNCH BILL
.WiII Stay in Session
To-day Until Action
on Measure
international News Service

AS the House today prepared to
conclude debate and vote on the
controversial Gavagan anti-lynch-
ing bill, Southern members oppos-
ing it marshalled their forces to
support an amendment to make
gang murders a Federal offense.
Representative Colmer CD Of
Mississippi announced he would
offer the amendment.
This was met with a counter as
sertion by Representative Gavagan
CD of New York, author of the
measure, that he would fight ANY
tampering with the bill to the Bit
ter end" He predicted passage of
the measure by a 2-to-1 vote.
Vote Assured Today
At the same time he revealed
that by agreement with Admins
tration leaders the House would
remain in session today until a
final vote was reached. He added:
eff anybody wants to filibuSter
we are prepared to remain all
night If necessary"
Subject of q bitter section fight
in debate on the floor so far, the
measure would permit Federal
courts to step in and prosecute
lynch mobs when local authorities
failed to do so. Colmer said:
This bill deals with mObs. 1t
il obviously aimed at the South.
1 can't see the difference be-
tween mob action in MissiS-
Sippi iynching and mob action
in a New York gang murder. If
we are going to legislate against
mob violence, let's do the job
right and not let sectional feel
ing enter into it."
Sovereignty Issue
Over the House hung the shadow
of the double lynching in Missis-
sippi Thursday as the members
prepared to conclude their argu-
ments.
Supporters Of the Gavagan bill
declared that the crime was fresh
proof of the need for Federal legis-
lation." Opposition forces, com.
posed largely Of Southern mem
bers, while expressing regret over
the Mississippi occurrence, voiced
the opinion it had no bearing on
the issue at stake sovereignty of
the States"

Illinois, only Negro member and
author Of a less drastic bill which
Gavagan supporters killed a week
