won quick approval of Senators
Holland, Democrat of Florida,
and DIN D, Johnston, Democrat
of South Carolina. Like most of
their Dixie colleagues, they are
generally opposed to Mr.. Eisen-
hower's suggestion for a BIZ
partisan racial commission with
subpoena powers.
Senator Hill. Democrat of Ala
bama. said yesterday he opposes
the setting up of such a commits
sion as Mr.. Eisenhower origi-
nally proposed in his January 5
message on the state of the
Union and Endorsed again in his
letter to Gov. Collins.

II think it can only make bad
matters worse" Senator Hill told
a reporter. THE question must
be left up to the States.
Clarence Mitchell. director of
the Washington office of the Ma
tional Association for the Ad-
vancement of Colored People,
said that if Congress acts
promptly on civil rights meas
ures. much Southern resistance
to racial indignation will disap-
pear"
Mr.. Mitchell said yesterday
such measures can be enacted
this year if leaders of both
parties really get behind" them.
In the past, civil rights bills have
always been killed in the Senate
by filibusters or threats of fill
busters-unlimited debate.
Politicians generally viewed
Mr.. Eisenhower's call for mod
crate and responsible leadership
supported by a spirit of patience"
as a conciliatory statement that
would have widespread appeal to
Southerners who want to work
out the school problem without
violence.
AS such. it might attract

Mr.. Eisenhower'S link with the
South in 1852 primarily was
through three Governors who
may have lost much of their
political influence this year
They are James F. Byrnes of
South Carolina, now retired,
Robert F. Kennon of Louisiana
who will retire in Nav. and Alan

NAACP Cool to Idea
Roy wilkins, executive secre-

the idea of conference such as
Gov Collins proposed.
Mr. Wilkins said a conference
of elected officials cannot pre-
