D WATSON APPEALS
FOR LYNCH BILL

New York City (CNS) Judge
James Watson, a member of the Ma
tionalC ommittee to Combat Anti
Semitism, has issued an appeal for a
deluge Of kilograms and letters to be
sent TO Rep. Thomas G. Burch, chair
man of the House Committee on the
Post Office and Post Roads, before
which the Lynch Bill IS now pending
Commented Judge Watson: The
Lynch Bill will keep the poison of
Anti-Negro, anti-semitic and other
a~nti-racial material from being
spread amongst our armed forces
where II IS serving to cause disunity.7

Dear Friend:
We wrote you on April is. We
told you the poll taxes were hard at
work behind the scenes to keep HR Z
from ever coming up; that Washing
ton was full Of rumors that they were
succeeding. We told you only one
thing could ave the anti-polI tax bill
Yow ~insistence.
Your insistence carried the day.
Senator Barley this morning an
nounced that, by agreement with the
proponents and opponents OF the bill,
HR 7 would be called up May 9th.
Now to the job OF actually passing
the bill.
L. We must brand as irresponsible
the filibuster which will meet the bill,
brand it as a tactic that disfranchises
the United States Senate itself.
2. We mist pledge each Senator to
vote for cloture, not only once but a
second time By the rules OF the Sc
nate, cloture can be called for over
and over again Not to call for it a
second time will be an unnecessary
surrender OF the right OF ten million
Americans to vote
Between now and May 9th, work
on your Senators. We think, at this
point, nc Senator IS hopeless. Every
Republican and every Northern De-
mocrat a be pledged to vote for clio
ture- Every poll-tax Senator can be
persuaded that the filibuster will be
too great a price to pay for the bills
defeat IN terms Of loss Of Senate dig
nifty and blackening the magnificent
war record OF the Southern people.
8. If your Senator says he's for clo-
ture, pin him down to a second cloture
vote and to an aggressive fight for
the bill.
Don't let Up now
