Anti Lynch Bill On 1898 Calendar

Washington-After deadlocking
the Senate and throwing the clos
ing days Of Congress into panic,
the supporters of the Wagner-Van
Nuys anti-lynching bill agreed to a
propose. made by Senate leader
that the bill be set down definitely
on the Senate calendar for action
in the next session after the farm
bill.
Action on the anti-lynching bill
will be taken either at the regular
SCI sion beginning next January or
at the special session sometime in
the fall II special session should
be called.
The resolution making the anti
lynching bill the unfinished bust
ness Of the Senate was proposed by
Majority Leader AIben w. Barkley
OF Kentucky. and passed by two
thirds vote August IL.
The resolution means that the
anti-lynching bill will not have to
fight for a place on the calendar
and that there will be no argument
over whether II should be taken W
or not. II means that the anti.
iynching bill is definitely set down
on the Senate calendar and must
be debated and vot,sl upon.
Victory For Bill
In hailing the present arrange
ment as victory. supporters OF the
anti-lynching bill point out that in
all the history OF anti-lynching

take up the bill. The filibusters in
the Senate on the Dyer bill In 1922
an on the Costigan-Wagner bill in
1885 were made on the motion to
consider. not on the merits OF the
bill itself.
Now, by the agreement reached
August ~. there will be no fight
over a motion to consider. The bill
will positively come up on the cal
cndar and be debated on Its merits
Action on the anti-lynching bill

ner. Of New York. suddenly moved
