The adjournment came after an

be expelled because Of his Com

Gates, one OF the IL top Com

overthrow Of the Government.
He reviewed his record as a SOL

Spanish Civil War. and his four
years in the United States Army, In
which he enlisted week after Pearl

He said the Communist Party be-

Would Destroy Good Work"
He said the measure would destroy
"all the good work that has been
done in civil rights" by saddling the
State division against discrimination
in employment with additional
tasks.
AS a result, he said, fair employ
ment practices would suffer.
THE most important thing is the
right to earn a living" Mr.. Curtis
said. I'm very much afraid that if
this bill is passed. we are going to
have a problem of high relief rolls
and higher taxes because of the
need for increased appropriations
for municipal relief agencies"
He argued that many Negroes
would be thrown out of work if anti
discrimination in employment were
made secondary to the new proposal.
