Civil Rights Legislation
NAV Still Be Passed

WASHINGTON - amp - Pas
sage of civil rights legislation in
this session of congress is not lost
cause, according to Democratic
leaders in the senate.
Sen. J. Howard McGrath of Rhode
Island, Sen. Scott w. Lucas of IlIi-
nois, and Sen. Hubert Humphrey Of
Minnesota, all were optimistic on the
passage of some types Of civil
rights laws.
The greatest hope for a law is APP
parently a kind of omnibus bill
which would establish two civil
rights committees, one of congress
men, and the other appointed by the
President.
Sen. McGrath heads the judiciary
committee which is holding hearings
on this bill. 1t would establish a IA
man committee Of seven senators
and seven representatives to be
known as the joint congressional
committee on civil rights and
five-man commission on civil rights
appointed by the President. This
latter committee would make an
nual report to the President.
Neither of these committees
would have any enforcement powers.
They would be empowered to study
the question, but no power to con-
duct hearings.
Sen. Humphrey is proposing a
statute to set up a civil rights COM
mission which would have subpoe-
ma and hearing powers. Both this
bill and the omnibus bill could have
committee members chosen on a Sec
tional basis.
The omnibus bill is being promoted
very carefully. Supporters are seek
ing approval OF southern senator's in
advance in order to avoid filibus-
ter
Speaking of the possibilities of
civil rights bills passing, Sen. Lucas
was optimistic. He said that his par
ty was determined to see that civil
rights legislation succeeded. He de-
clared.
IT intend to continue the fight for
civil rights that fight has been
brought to a successful conclusion"
Blaming Republicans for the fail
ure to stop the filibuster in the SEN
ate. he said, II hope the Republican
leaders will redeem themselves in
the future, and will no longer try to
evade their share Of the responsible
ty for the enactment of this vital
legislation"
In answer to the question Of what
can be done to win civil rights leg
islation he said:
"One of the most important steps
will be to impress upon the minds
of those senator's who voted against
civil rights the fact that there Is
tremendous demand on the part Of
the people for this legislation, and
those who continue to obstruct 1t
will be defeated at the polls.
There must be a great deal Of
education on the part Of groups in
terested in civil rights. These groups
must carry the story Of the filibuster
fight to their fellow Americans"
Sen. Lucas also pointed out that
the senate had passed much OF
President Truman's program includ-
ing rent control, low cost housing
bill, school health bill, federal aid to
education, the Marshall plan govern
ment reorganization, and other
bills.
He declared his determination to
carry out the Presidents program
by saying:
II will do everything within my
power to obtain action on the most
this session Of the congress. and to
urgent proposals Of the President at

of the Democratic program It the

have found the greatest cause for
lack of reading interest is defective

From these observations, the
group hopes for more effective

Schools next year.

Panel Theme Language Arts
in the Elementary Schools"
Visiting Elementary Instructors:
Mrs. Linnie Fannin, Dunbar; Mrs
Albertha Thompson, Phyllis Wheat
ley; Mrs. Alma Johnson, Liberty
City.
Since high school English teach
ers need to know what is taught in
the language arts in the elementary
schools and to come to a reason
why so many elementary pupils car
ry over so little upon entering the
seventh grade, these visiting instruc-
tors consented to shed light upon
the problem The following recon-
mendations were made after much
discussion for and against many
teaching procedures:
l. That the elementary language
program be revised in the light of
environment and experiences of the
children, with stress upon reading,
writing, sentence sense and spelling.
The fundamentals of grammar as
such, be left to the Junior High
School.
2. That the Junior High teachers
continue to keep aflame the enthus-
iasm that most pupils bring to the
seventh grade from the elementary
school.
3. That some provision be made
for pupils who get social promotions
to high school. We feel that these
pupils are definitely being neglected.
A remedial reading teacher in the
seventh grade could do much to
help.
4. That we have testing program
for Junior and Senior High school.
s. That every teacher put special
emphasis on writing and make an
effort to improve the writing of
pupils.
