SEEK TO CHANGE
SENATE RULES

Washington, Sept. 6 - Hear
ings on the resolution introduced
by Senators Wayne Morse and
Hubert Humphrey to provide for
limitation of debate by a simple
majority vote win begin on Octo-
Der l. Senator Carl Hayden, chair
man of the Cenate Committee on
Rules and Administration, has in
formed Clarence Mitchell, director
of the Washington Bureau of the
National Association for the Ad-
vancement of Colored People.
The decision to hold open hear
ings on the proposed change of
the Senate rules came last May
after the NAACP in conference
with 80 other national organiza-
tons urged Senate leaders to
take such action. Under present
Senate rules requiring the vote of
w 9'iobViSt VI a SoAioIiIutibhni
two-thirds, it has been impossible
to stop a filibuster the NAACP
has contended ever since the rule
was adopted in 1949. AS a result,
it has been impossible to pass any
civil rights legislation.
At the NAACP-initiated con-
ference last May in Washington
Walter White. executive secretary
of the NAACP, headed a delega-
ton which conferred with Sena-
tors Ernest w Mcfarland, ma
jority leader, and Kenneth
Wherry, minority leader Senator
Wherry, a member of the Rules
Committee. obtained unanimous
consent of the committee to hold
open hearings on change of Senate
Rules. No date was set at that
time.
In addition to considering the
resolution introduced jointly by
Senators Morse and Humphrey,
the committee will also consider
the resolution jointly introduced
by Senators Lehman, Murray,
Magnuson, Nicely Douglas, Hum
phrey, Green. Benton, Pastore,
Mcmahon and Kilgore
This resolution permits the
shutting off of a filibuster by
majority vote or by a two thirds
vote. The two thirds vote would
be required if the filibuster is to
be shut off one day after sena-
tors request this action by petit
ton. The majority vote would APP
fourteen days after the petition is
filed. The petition would require
sixteen signatures in either case.

BOOGUM.

The boogum, q desert plant,
takes root at both ends.
In Lower California, boogums
prevent the landscape from becom-
ing monotonous. Some resemble
inverted ice-cream cones, balls,
hoops or arches. Others become
strange silhouettes, botanical con-
tortionists without equals.
Throughout the belt where most
of the boogum exist, which is about
300 miles from north to south. these
plants may not be thought beauti-
full; but in the few valleys, groves
OF them are highly interesting.
Naturally, these plants rise
straight into the air to end with a
burst of small white blossoms so
feet from the ground. These tall
rigid spikes have rigidly-spined
twigs jutting out from the bark,
this to discourage grazing animals.
AS saplings, boogums resemble
balls, almost as wide as high. AS
the armored ball begins to

just below the surface, the plant
is developing horizontal root
system that radiates in all direc-
tions. At what time the plant will
begin to bow its head earthward is
not definitely established, but ii
arches over until It's head touches
the soil: then it gradually pushes
deeper ana finally takes root.
Even IN death, the boogum puts
on stunts. The slender spike turns

1t Runs Through
My Mind
The Lord Was Willing
BY POLLY J. HANST

Aunt Becky, courtesy aunt in our
neighborhood back home was crippled
from Il broken hip and moved only on
crutches. As children we were sent
often to do chores for her or run her
erands. 1t was from her that it was
imbedded on my soul to say, THE
Lord willing, | will do so and 50"
SO it was with building our house.
When the home grown "stone mason
around the place would say, Pm GO
ing to the top of the door this week,"
or "by fall I'll finish the chimney" l
always chimed in with THE Lord
willing"
In five summers the expression I'M
consciously turned into a family
motto.
Somehow | always kept relying on
Him, for the scatfold got high and
many times the work had to be done
in awkward positions, and the knees
had a way of going out of place.
On Labor Day, the last stone was
laid, and we shouted for joy, but deep
in my heart was feeling humble and
thankful that THE Lord had been
willing"

done toward building the house.
And what did you do?" His black,
