State bills
hit r0ciSTn

SPRINGFIELD, Ill.-The state
senate this week voted to ban re-
strictive covenants and all other
forms of racial and religious dis
elimination from housing develop
ments to be established under the
states proposed slum clearance
program.
The action came in the form of
an amendment by Sen, Walker
Butler R., Chicago to the slum
clearance bill.
Sen. Frank J. Dick R., QUINCY
made a motion to table the amend
ment, but later withdrew his mo-
ton, and the amendment was
adopted.
The amendment orders that "no
deed of conveyance, either by the
Ohousing) commission or any SUBJ
sequent owner, shall contain a
covenant running with the land or
other provision prohibiting occu-
pancy of the premises by any per-
son because of race, creed, or
color"
The bill will come up for third
reading this week.

Bill Faces
FiIibuster

WASHINGTON, Feb. 5 -
(LPA) - Anti-poll tax, anti
lynching and permanent fair
employment practices legisla-
ton will have a far greater
chance of enactment by the
80th Congress if any one of four
anti-filibuster bills now pend
ing in the Senate is successful.
The four measures have been
introduced by bipartisan
group of two Democrats and
two Republicans, a fact which
normally would increase the
possibility of at least one of the
measures passage.
However, southern Demo-
Gratis only grinned complacent-
ly at the new threat to their mi
nority rule. They reminded re-
porters privately that it would
be relatively easy to filibuster
the anti-filibuster measure to
death. Twenty-one of rs at
tempts to vote cloture (shutting
off debate) since 1917 when the
cloture rule was adopted have
failed, they pointed out.
Differing but little, three of
the four resolutions submitted
by Senators Leverett Salton-
stall (R. Mass.), William Know
land (R. Cal), Glen Taylor 3D.,
Idaho) and Claude Pepper d.
Fla.), would cut off debate by
majority instead of two-thirds
vote,
