Immediately issued a state
ment regarding the Poll Tax
filibuster in the Senate. He
said, AT any time, the spectacle
of a small block of reactionary
southern Senators f1libustering
over the Pepper-Geyer Anti
Poll Tax bill, which is ds-
signed to remove the iniqui-
tous Poll Tax as a prerequisite
for voting in Federal elections,
is shocking to say the least. At
time when our country Is
engaged in crucial struggle
for the preservation and ex-
tension Of the Four Freedoms,
it is little short of treason for
United States Senators to
waste the time of the Senate
in such a disgusting manner
and thus hold up vital legis-
lation which is important for
the winning of the war. I hope
that the Senators from Massa-
chusetts will support a bill to
limit debate on this matter
and thus bring to an end this
shocking spectacle"
