Illinois Substitutes
mandamus FEPc

SPRINGFIELD, ILL.,, May e.
(ANP)-Because labor union
leaders have an antipathy for the
word "injunction", the admins
tration will substitute the word
mandamus in it's FEPC bill, it
was disclosed here recently. In
junction means a court order not
to do something while mandamus
means a court order to do some
thing.
The measure as it stands now,
provides for court Injunction to
compel compliances with FEPC
orders. Discrimination in en-
ployment because of race, color,
religion or national ancestry
would be the basis for "sease and
desist" orders.

IT Yes Votes
Required for Senate
ApprovaI OF FEPc

"The Ohio Committee for FEPC
Legislation had worked for Sem
ate approval of AM. H. B. 1O6
as it was voted out of the House
However, careful consideration of
the legislation as approved by the
Senate Committee leads to the
conclusion that the Bill in it's
present form is a workable and
effective measure. We therefore
urge our friends and supporters
in the Senate to give it speedy
approval"
This is the attitude if the Ohio
Committee for Fair Employment
Legislation as expressed by the
chairman, Lockwood Thompson of
Cleveland. 1t was made after the
oeHdIe Ldckeu on TWO amend
ments to the bill which was passed
by the House. 1t was included in
a statement by Ben Goldman, ex-
ecutive director of the Committee.
Goldman said that the bill will
probably go to the floor of the
Senate this week. A close battle
is expected before the bill goes
over the final barrier. The affir-
native vote of II Senators is re-
quired for Senate approval.
The Committee urges everybody
who is for passage of the bill to
write, wire, call or visit their
Senators urging them to vote for
the bill without further amend
ments. It calls on both individu-
ais and organizations to "join in
this historic campaign"

The King of the Vibes, Lionel

at race labels on records.
The vibe king, who issued a
blanket invitation to all booking
agents and entertainers to join
and help him enforce the boycott
on the dance halls and bathrooms
which persisted in a policy of ra-
cial discrimination at public dan
ces, has invited the same enter
tainers and booking agents to
join him also in his all out fight
against race labels on records.
He is requesting that entertain
ers forward their suggestions to
him on how best to fight the prob
lem during his present stay at
the Strand theatre. The sugges-
tons which he receives will aid him
in mapping his strategy and in
marshalling his forces to fight all
forms Of discrimination, Hampton
