For the first time in 81 years a civil rights bill has
been passed by the United States Senate During this
long period many civil rights measures have been
passed By the House only to succumb TO Dixie fill
buster in the Senate.
That this bill met such fate is in itself significant.
The fact that flibuster developed on the motion
to take up the bill (where it has always developed in
the pa) is tribute to Negro voters in the November
election who demonstrated their flexbility and deter
minaton to support issues rather than bndly to sup
