A veteran of World War I with
three sons in World War II, Con-
gresham Bill Colmer, who was a
leader in the bonus fight in the
House in 1886, proposes to use the
prestige and influence that he
has earned through his years OF
service in Congress for the we'll
being of veterans of all wars. BY
virtue of his position on the
Rules Committee, which would de-
determine when and how any
veterans bill would come up for
consideration, he can and will
render effective service. He has
served long enough to have the
necessary know-how.
In 1886 Bill Colmer was chair
man of a special committee on
the bonus bill and was credited
by the bonus bill authors with
having effected the compromise
which brought final passage OF
the bill.
Congressman Wright Patman,
author of the bill, took oc-
caSion to praise Bill Colmer's
work. mo Member of Congress
has been a more loyal and
faithful friend of the veterans
and their dependents than Con-
gresham Colmer," Patman said,
I'VE owe him a debt of gratitude,
Several factions working In Diff
ferent directions, as we were,
represented wrecking crews. He
made the GREATEST CONTRI-
BUTTON toward converting these
wrecking crews into one great
construction gang which permit
ted us to very quickly speed to
victory"
On the same occasion, Con-
gresham John w. Mccormack
now House Majority Leader and
then a coSponSor of the house
bill, singled Bill Colmer out in 9
speech in the House with special
words Of thanks: There is one
OF our colleagues who played such
an important part that I fee
warranted in paying him . til

colleague from Mississippi (Mr
Coimer), who -. By his patience

no man a successfully predict.
1t may be six months; it may be

be more than five years Our

Year in and year out he advo-

his refrain was Nov is the time

Speaker Praises
Bills Popularity
Among Colleagues

Few men in the national House
OF Representatives enjoy the per-
sonal popularity that has been
given Bill Colmer.
Friendly, Woodworking, consid-
crate of his colleagues and en-
lowed with a quick perception of
the intricacies of government, Bill
Colmer has made friends who are
happy to help him, which enables
him to accomplish so much for
his people.
The official records of the
House prove that this personal
popularity is a fact, and laws on
the books attest to its effective
ness.
A convincing testimonial to Bills
high standing among his COL
leagues is found In a speech de-
livered by Chairman Cannon of
the Appropriation subcommittee
following the adoption owe the
committees opposition, of an a.
mendment affecting the Sixth
District.
Said this speaker:
"Mr. Speaker, I congratulate the
gentleman from Mississippi on this
splendid tribute to his popularity
in the House, and I desire to join
those who voted for him in this
well-merited compliment. The vote
was a vote in favor of the gentle
man and is a testimonial to our
deep affection for him and the es-
TEEN in which he is held. It Is a
vote on the gentleman from Miss
issippi and not a vote on the mer-
its of the amendment before U.S."
Much of Congressman Colmer's
success is due to his personal
friendship with the House leaders
and his wide acquaintance among
and popularity with his colleagues.

CONGRESS, EXPRESSING WISHES
OF GRATEFUL AMERICAN PEO-
PIE, PROVIDED FOR GENEROUS
PROGRAM BENEFITTING WORLD
WAR III VETERANS

AS a member of the wartime
Congress, which appropriated funds
not only to carry on the war but
to show in some measure the graf
itude of America to those who
contributed and sacrificed SC
much in the winning of the war,
Congressman Bill Colmer was act
i've in urging an adequate rehabil-
itation program for u heroic vet
Grams.
That the Congress did its part
toward a generous program for
the rehabilitation and benefit of
veterans is indicated by the ex-
penditures already made for these
World War II service men. To date,
less than one year after the war,
81, 1887, DOC, 900 of the funds appro-
priated by Congress have actually
been spent. A breakdown of this
total (this is in addition to the
funds provided for veterans of
World War I and the Spanish A
merican War is as follows:

Washington, March 9.-Much
vocal fireworks accompanied the
recent Senate fight over the bill
for a permanent Fair Employment
Practices Commission. In fact, so
loud, so bitter and SO long drawn
out was the Senate fight that
most people have forgotten that
the House Rules Committee did a
similar job with much less fanfare.
Chief official of the House FEPC
burial rites was Representative
Colmer 3D., Miss.
1t Is extremely hard for a bill to
reach the House floor without ap-
proval of the House Rules Com
mittee. The only other way a bill
can get to the floor is through a
discharge petition that must be
signed by 2l8 representatives.
SO when the FEPC Bill reached
the Rules Committee months ago,
the Southerners concentrated their
fight there. Representative Colmer
was named chairman of an unof-
fetal AntiFEPC Committee. 1t
was his duty to see that the COM
mittee never met without all anti
FEP members present. This took
constant watching for Committee

So when Representative Slaughter

the FEPC members thought they
had things their own way. But
they reckoned without the persu-
asive Mr.. Colmer. The Mississip-
plan talked the Republicans into
an agreement that they would not
act on FEPC until Representative
Slaughter returned. But a meeting
was set for 10 o'clock the day Mr.
Slaughter was due back. Came 1C
O'Clock and no Representative
Slaughter. Again Representative
Colmer turned on the charm.

HAVE A coon MAN; NOT
THINKING OF CHANGING

In Congressman Bill Colmer
South Mississippi has an able, hon.
est, industrious, experienced, and
patriotic man representing 1t. In
telligent voters recognize the adj
vantage to a District of having
such trained representation. In
getting things done in Washing
ton know-how, knowing whom to
contact and how to proceed, is
essential, for the government Is a
complex organization.
All who have had occasion to
watch his work say that Bill Col
mer has made a good Congress-
man. He has worked hard, he has
stayed on the job, and he has got
ten results. His legislative record
is well-balanced. He has been
particularly active in promoting
the welfare of the veteran, the
farmer, the aged, the laborer, and
the small business man. But he
has not let his interest in any
one class blind him to the needs
of the country as a whole. He has
not permitted the trivial and the
spectacular to absorb his energies.
The people of South Mississippi
are not thinking Of swapping off
a trained man. They like the kind
of service Bill Colmer gives. They
do not want to gamble on an un-
known when they have a tried and
true Representative already on
the job.

SIXTH DISTRICT TO ENDORSE BILL C0LMER!!
ENDORSEMENT OF CONGRESSMAN
COLMER'S FINE RECORD CERTAIN


many vexing postwar problems
unsolved, South Mississippi will
keep its place of power in the
Nations Capitol by re-electing its
veteran Representative, potent
Rules Committee figure and post
war policy committee chairman,
Bill Colmer, reports from the
sixteen counties of the 9Th Con-
gressional District show. The pri-
mary is slated for July End.
Colmer, whose industry and a.
bility have earned choice House
committee assignments, has been
marked as a target of the CLIO in
is million-dollar drive to defeat
the key Southern figures in Con-
greSs. The CLOS ire was stirred by
Colmer's trying to fight the vet
Grams battle at home against
strikes in war industries and by
his effective opposition to such
anti-Southern bills as the FEPC.
With the House Rules Committee
equally divided on such measures
as the FEPC, the defeat of even
one Southern member might pave
the way for the CLIO to attain its
ends.
South Mississippians, fully aware
of this danger, plan to give the
left-wingers who are trying to
dictate to them a resounding n
swer by overwhelmingly endorsing
their Representative.
A VOICE THAT CAN BE HEARD
Through its Representatives
seniority and strategic committee
assignments, South Mississippi al
now make its wishes known force
fully and can be certain that thew
will receive consideration. Their
present Congressman has served
his apprenticeship. He is recog-
nized as one of the House lead
ers. They can speak through him
in a voice that can be heard. a
voice that is listened to, not a new
voice lost in the hubbub of the
435-member House.
Representative Colmer is well
on his way up the seniority ladder
OF the House organization. ONLY
five members are senior to him on
the House Rules Committee. ONLY
sc Members of the entire member
ship of 435 are senior to him. With
each year, under the system of
seniority followed in the House,
his prestige and power increase,
and more and more recognition
comes to the section he represents.
As Chairman of the House Spec
ial Committee on Economic Plan
ming and Policy, Congressman
Colmer has had an opportunity to
meet and to know personally the
leaders of industry, labor, agri-
culture, and government of both
this country and Europe. He has
gained valuable, first-hand in
formation about our economy and
our relations with foreign coun-
tries. The reports issued by the
Colmer Committee have won ed
itorial praise from newspapers
throughout the country. That the
committee has functioned well
under his leadership is indicated
by the fact that all nine reports
issued by 1t have been adopted u
unanimously by the bipartisan
committee of 10 Democrats and 8
Republicans, an unheard of rec
ord.
