with the same complete mastery of

Group Report On
Scanlon Bill Is
Very Favorable
BY HARRY McALPIN

WASHINGTON, d. C.-(NNPA)
The House Labor Committee,
through its chairman. Rep. Mary T.
Norton I'd. of MI, has announced
a favorable report OF the Scanlon
bill for permanent FEPC with
out amendments.
The bill, as reported, carries pro-
visions making it possible for the
FEPC to seek enforcement of its
directives in the federal courts. II
also includes provisions outlawing
determinations by labor unions,
part OF the bill objected to by the
American Federation of Labor.
Any employer having in his en-
ploy more than Ave persons, who
is Cd engaged in interstate or
foreign commerce; (2) under con-
tract with the United States or any
agency thereof; or 90 performing
work, under subcontract or other
wise called for by a contract to
which the United States or any
agency thereof is a party, Is SUBJ
ject to the act. II applies likewise
to any labor union which has Ave
or more members in the employ of
one or more employers covered.
The Scanlon bill CHR. 1885,
favorably reported by the commit
tee Is identical with those intro
duced by Reps. William l. Daw-
son and Charles LaFollette. Z,
The next move Is for the Rules
Committee Of the House to give
the bill the right OF way in the
House. Observers here believe
such action is unlikely, and that
a petition OF 2l8 congressman will
be necessary to get the measure on
the floor. There is little likelihood
that this will happen this session of
congress. The bill, however, will
be reintroduced early in the 10th
congress, and action is expected
early during the session.
A. Philip Randolph and Knight
Chalmers. co-chairmen of the Ma
,tionAl Council for q Permknent
FEPC, In a statement following
favorable report Of the bill, said:
Recommendation of the bill for
a permanent FEPC by the House
Labor Committee soon after the
election campaign is a reason for
confidence in campaign pledges
Both the Republican and Demo
cratic leadership promised enact
ment Of the bill after the election.
and both Democrats and Republi-
cans supported the bill in commit
tee. We look forward to early en-
actment Of this fundamental meas
ure for the augmentation Of basic
American rights on the same
broad, bipartisan basis as in the
