Although Senator Gillette Of
Iowa promised to vote for cloture
because he does not believe in a
filibuster, he announced that he is
not in favor of the anti-poll tax
bill. He only believes it should have
free and fair debate.
Among the Senators who voted
for cloture when the anti-poll tax
bill was up in 1912 are: Barkley,
Bone (paired for), Brewster, Cap
per, Green, Thomas of Utah, Tru-
man, Davis, johnson of Colorado,
Mead, Thomas of Oklahoma, Wag-
ner, Walsh, Taft, Danaher, Muir
ray (paired for), Reed Tunnel,
Vandenberg, Wiley and Ball.
Sensing the possibility that clo-
ture will be voted and the filibuster
thus killed, the southern Senators
have perfected new plan to de-
lay a vote on H.R. 7 indefinitely.
They are said to have drawn up

The three sergeants who left the

together, March 80, 1914, on fur
Tough, said they were glad to be
back, though they were finding it
difficult to adjust themselves, after
the long stay in New Guinea where
the lowest temperature of 90 de-
grees is considered cold.
Their company was the first con-
tingent of Negro troops to enter
Australia and at that time were
commanded by all Negro commits
stoned officers. However, a white

commander were assigned to replace
Negroes upon their transfer to New
Guinea.
They all hold three battle star

ClOture; Eleven Definite

WASHINGTON, D. C. (NAACP)
With the anti-poll tax bill
scheduled to come up in the Sen
ate sometime during the week Of
April "a, the stage is set for a
bitter debate in which race hatred
speeches are almost certain to be
featured.
The Southern Senators from poll
tax states announced many months
ago, after the bill passed the House,
that they would filibuster against
it. Loudest among them is Senator
Theodore Bilbo, of Mississippi, who
at first promised to talk "for 80
days." but on March 81 before the
Mississippi legislature revised his
pledge to "18 months"
The only way a filibuster can be
broken effectively is through the
voting of cloture Limitation of de-
bate), and in order to do this
two-thirds vote of senators pres
ent is necessary. There has been
some indication that the Senate
may vote cloture. Senator Wallace
H. White, Jr., of Maine, generally
regarded as Minority Leader fol-
lowing the death of Senator
Charles McNary, announced re-
Gently that he thought" most of
the Republicans would vote for
cloture.
Most Senators are very cagey
about making positive pledge on
cloture, but in answer to a letter
from the NAACP last winter, the
following Senators definitely prom
ised to vote for cloture: Barkley

PoLI'S

One Of the most sensation dramas to come out of Hollywood, "Tho aMster Race" opened ct the Loew Poli yesterday to prove itself both gripping drama of unusual inter. est and c warning of what happen after the war unless something Is done to insure c continuous peace, This great production biuntly estab. fishes the oromise-th the worlds greatest danger lies in the "master race" belief Of the real German leaders. This theory of Aryan racial supremacy, with the Kaiser and the Teutonisc military men as It's figure heads,C brought about World War one; twenty-five years later, this time with Hitler and his Nazi party as its Agureheads, it started World War Two. Now, the picture reveals the same hidden leaders, undaunted by the impending collapse of the current conflict, are coldly plotting to "go underground" and by adroit spreading dissension among the peoples of the conquered countries and among the allies themselves, set the stage 60 that in another genra- ton or SO Q resarmed Germany can once more attempt to conquer the globe. The real peril lies in the master race" fanatics and these fanatics are the ones we must dee stroy if 0 lasting peace si to be achieved. The dramatic story deals specifically with the efforts of e Colonel Won Beck, one of the "uil. derground" plotters, who sinuggles himself into little Belgian village just ahead of the Allies arrival and posing as Q Belgian patriot anxious to cooperate in the task of recon- structiOn. secretly sets about his hohorts' real mission of awakening hatreds and fornenting dlscords. How he operates leads to the stir. ring climax of the unique offering. George Coulouris plays Won Beck with brilliant conviction and Osa Messen, Carl Esmond, Stanley Ridges, Nancy Gates and Lloyd Bridges stand out among the sup porting cast Herbert J. Biberman directed with marked effectiveness. On our stage Saturday only we will present in Person Hildegarde Cunow. who will tell all our audience how it is to be in Germany during the brutal period with the NaM crowd. how it is to live under the steady watch of the Maxi Leaders, so make nlans to see this revealing story and hear for yourself how brutal the Naxis treat the people of Germany today.
