Of the Democratic caucus Of Fen.
9Th and the developments which
have taken place on the floor Of
the Senate pertaining to Senator
Knowland's resolution to dis
charge the Rules Committee, I
humbly observe that the analysis
is incomplete.
Senator Xnowland of California
presented a resolution on the floor
Of the Senate to discharge the
Rules Committee because Of what
he termed its failure TO expedite
action on a change in the Senate
rules so as te curb the filIbuster.
This action on the part Of Senator
Knowland was subsequently dis
cussed by the Democratic caucus
held on Saturday, Feb. 5th. II
was patiently clear that Mr.. Know
lands resolution was an attempt
on the part Of the Republican
minority to challenge the majority
leadership on a very crucial ques-
ton. This matter was thoroughly
discussed and those Of us who are
strong supporters of civil rights
legislation and supporters Of SEN
ator Meyers resolution proposing
a majority vote for the application
OF cloture, were strong and firm
in our conviction that we were not
going to permit a political trick on
the part Of the Republican oppo-
sition to upset the Senate organic
rational structure Of the Demo-
cratic Party. However. personally
made 1t crystal clear by my re-
marks in the caucus that while /
would support the Democratic
leadership in voting down Senator
Knowland's resolution, that /
would expect the Rules Commit
tee to expedite its report To the
Senate and there I would reserve
my RICH to vote my convictions.
Mr.. Krock has quoted me AZ
saying that the Knowland resolu-
ton was obviously q political at
tempt to embarrass the Democrats
and start taking control. II the
Republicans who voted for the mo-
ton will support the program
(ciHl rights) then we shall deliver
every single pledge made by both
national conventions" Mr.. Krock
makes a point Of the fact, however,
that I did not take note that the
Administrations refusal to face the
civil rights and cloture issues was
also for obvious political reasons.
It is only fair to state that your
reporter did not question me as TO
the Administration's tactics. I was
questioned only as to how viewed
the Republican or Senator Know
lands strategy.
My position, however, Is clear.
The Administration must quickly

Missouri ~ Students
Vote z 70 ! For
Negro Admission

COLUMBIA, Mo.-(ANP)-By
a count Of 4,156 for, to only l,S47
against, students Of the Univer-
sity of Missouri voted in favor Of
admitting Negroes to the univer-
sity last week.
A total Of 6,OOS students, go per
cent of the student body, the larg-
est number Of students ever to
participate in a school ballot, vot-
ed in the poll.
AS a result Of this poll the stu
dent council decided to request the
Missouri General assembly to
amend state laws to allow Negroes
to enroll not only at the university
but at other state colleges.
The council sent its recommen-
dations to the university board OF
curators, Gov. Forrest Smith, the
president of the state senate, and
the speaker of the house.
The ballot read
DO you support the proposed
change in the Missouri law as pro-
posed by the Board of Curators of
the university"
The curators recommended
several months ago that Negro
students be admitted to the uni
versity. They would be admitted
in courses not offered at Lincoln
university in jefferson City.
Students voted yes or no on the
question for three days. In a pre-
Wous poll a year ago of only
1851 students they voted 8 to 1
in favor of Negroes taking a part
in athletics and extra-curricular
activities.
Before the voting last week,
the YMCA and YWCA sponsored
a campaign to acquaint the stu
dents with the issues involved.
Two-mAn committees composed of
a student and a faculty member or
clergyman spoke before organized
groups on the campus.
