couldn't bring up bills without
Rules Committee approval.
Since Southern members were
almost placed in the position of
voting for or against FEPC, near
ly all of them were inclined to
vote for a restoration of the
Rules Committees old powers. In
the past this committee has gen
orally been sympathetic with
Southern interests, anyh o W,
to the committee, Southerners
blocking many bills Southerners
didn't want to get to the floor.
If the old powers were restored
to the committee, Southerners
were told FEPC would be dead in
the House this session.
President Truman entered into
the fight, calling for defeat of the
move to restore the Rules Com
mittee's old powers, and both
MAJOR parties c7ucused.
Observers wondered what Tru-
man really wanted most, defeat
or victory. A defeat would give
him compaign material. There
was no doubt about it. Congress
was back in session. The great
game of politics was once again
