MULLIN HOPES FOR FAVORABLE
ACTION ON SENATE FLOOR DESPITE
COMMITTEE TURNDOWN; VOTE 8 TO J

Despite the deadening blow the
FEPC bill took before the Senate
Labor committee, Senator Gerald
Mullin, CO-author of the bill, stat
ed he probably would bring the
bill to the floor in a minority re-
port. There, it is considered to
have some chance Of passage
where all senator's votes eventu-
ally must be recorded despite the
adverse committee action.
After a somewhat violent three
hour session Tuesday March /,
the committee refused to report
the measure out on the floor. by
a s to 7 vote, with all committee
members present. Earlier. IT had
refused to kill the bill by indefinite
postponement by a vote Of 9 TO 8.
Because Of these two actions.
most members see little chance Of
rcvving It. However, Sen. Gerald
Mullin, co-author Of the bill, an
nounced that he would attempt TO
get action on the Senate floor.
A series Of nine amendments
to the bill were acted on. -Four Of
the six Senators offering amend
ments finally voted against re-
porting the legislation out on the
] floor.

According to this announcement
the elections for the St. Paul Ma

been set aside by the National Of
flee of the NAACP and new cleo
tons have been ordered.
Earl B. Dickerson, Chicago at

The action on the November 16

cause of a complaint filed at the

elections were illegal on several
points.
The National NAACP answered

Culver, in his complaint, charged
that the nominating committee did
not conform to the rules laid down
in the bylaws of the constitution;
that absentee ballots were used in
disobedience of these rules; and
that the balloting itself was not
properly carried out.
There was also an undercurrent
of remarks made by some men,

BUSINESS LAG
HITS NEGROES
GRANGER SAYS

NEW YORK -(ANP)-- Lester
B. Granger, executive director of
the National Urban League, said
here last week that Negroes
throughout the country are al
ready feeling the effects of a de-
preston.
Addressing the Urban League
at its annual meeting in the Rus
sell Sage foundation, he said that
the increasing dropoff in business
is being heralded by the loss of
jobs among Negroes, He cited the
bureau of labor statistics which
pointed out that nationwide I'M
employment may come close to
100000 by the end of the year.
In Detroit, II per cent Of all
relief cases are Negroes, while
in Omaha, one of every four Ne
gro workers Is out Of job.
If these figures are typical of
the country as a whole, our Negro
population is already in the midst
of a depression, even though the
nation as a whole has not felt the
shock" he said.
He urged the Sc regional league
groups to continue improvements
of race relations in their work
with relief, employment and So
clal security officials, as well as
among union members and lead
erS.
Lloyd K. Garrison was re-
elected president of the league at
the meeting, and Elmo Roper and
William S. Townsend, reelected
WCc-presidents.

Tobias pointed out the story Of
the Democratic convention, how
the resolutions committee wanted
to stall on civil rights and re-
enact the plank of four years be-
fore. He told how the convention
overthrow that procedure on the
minority report and how even
with the South revolving went on
to win an election victory with
civil rights as a plain issue which
made 1t a mandate Of the people.
"You are trying to follow the
southern tactics instead Of fol-

The committee quoted the tele-

man from the p organizations.
The wire pointed out that they
were appalled, at the extent to
which his chief enemies had been
permitted to take the center OF the

he had not changed his position

Chinese Reds
 Jail U. $. Consul At Mukden

WASHINGTON, (P)-Commun- ist treatment of the American Consul General at Mukden has dealt a sharp new setback to com munist China's chances of obtain ing American recognition any time in the foreseeable future.
 Top state department officials are privately "burned up" at the way in which local authorities at Mukden have handled the case of 56-year-old Angus Ward They are irked too at the cold shoulder ing which the American govern ment has received in it's attempts to get any information on the mat tre from national communist lead CTS at Peiping.
 Ward has been held in jail at Mukden since October 24. Two American and two European members of his staff have been held with him. All are charged with having beaten a Chinese em- ployee early in October, as the re- suit of an alleged wage dispute.
 The state department disclosed Thursday that the Consul General at Peiping, O. Edmund Clubb, had sent a letter to Gen. Chou En-Lai the communist foreign minister, demanding Wards release and asking information about him. The department said that no reply had been received.
 Officials are now confronted with the problem of what to do next in the case. Two courses ap- peared open as speculative possi- bilities.
 One is to address the strongest possible protest to the communist leaders at Peiping.
 Another move would be to bring the case before the United Nations.

Independents To Challenge CAB Ruling

 Heacock said he would attend a meeting of CAA officials and aerontuaical engineers being held today to determine policy or air craft and route restrictions which become effective Wednesday.
 As the regulation stands" Heacock said, the pay load of GAG aircraft operated by Arnold Airlines, Air Transport Associates, Trans-Alaska Air Lines, Alaska Air Lines, Golden North AivWays, Arctic-Pacific Air Lines and West air Transport would be cut almost in half on Alaskan routes, making commercial operation economical ly impracticable."
 Al a meeting of the independent carriers at BOeing Field Friday, Herbert Hilscher of the Alaska Development board criticized the CABS regulation of carriers with in Alaska.
 The meeting unanimously en- dorsed Heacock's telegram 10 Gov. Ernest Gruening of Alaska Chal- Ienging the board and the sched- uled air lines with an offer 10 car ry the mails to Anchorage and Fairbanks for S1 a year.
 With both Mt. Mckinley Air Lines and Golden North under i'm mediate threat of revocation of their letters of registration for 'un- due frequency and regularity and with CAA attacks on the C-46 aircraft designed to destroy us, faint-hearted appeasement policy can onyl lead to destruction of non-scheduled service to and with in Alaska" Heacock declared.
