everything from the income tax
amendment to the civil rights
bill before a large gathering at

Avenue Citizens Association.
Representative Dorm of South
Carolina cried out that the gov
eminent of this country was
"one-third of the way to COM

the people can stop this Fed
eral, socialistic autocracy" is to
control the pursestrings that
enable it to grow and usurp the
rights of the States and the in
dividual."
MIR. Dorm said the United
States should be proud Of its
record in civil rights: 1t is the
finest of any nation in the his

sentative from South Carolina
declared the pending civil rights
bill would only increase the
power of bureaucratic, auto

could only decrease the liberty
of each individual citizen.
The Congressman said that he
agreed fundamentally with T.
Coleman Andrews, former Com
missioner of Internal Revenue,
in that the Income Tax Amend

this country and to its system Of
free enterprise" Mr.. Dorm de-
clared himself in favor Of a
