Willett told the newspaper the

relations with white people.

bers such other persons as the
Governor might appoint.
The committee would consider
complaints, and, if unable to deal
effectively with them, would refer
them to the board for advice. Any
one dissatisfied with the recon-
mendations or advice of the district
committee would be entitled to re-
fer them to the board for further
consideration.
1t is proposed that the bill will
operate for three years and, unless
re-enacted, expire at the end of
that time.
The committee which investi-
gated the extent to which racial
discrimination exists put forward
al recommendations to the govern

quarters of those could be consid-

Among other things, this COM

races as an experiment.
Asked about the reserving of the
right of admission to premises, Mr..
Hall said that it was possible that
some recommendations might be
made by the board, but ne said ne

direct effect on that question.

Washington, d. c., January 80
Senator Thomas c. Hennings, Jr.
(D-Mo.) Chairman of the Senate
Com m tee on Constitutional
Rights, announced today that pub
lie hearings on all Civil Rights
measures will commence before
the Committee at 10 am, February
IL, Abraham Lincoln's birthday.
Senator Hennings made this an
nouncement at the close of an ex-
ecutive session of the Committee
this morning, called to decide what
action the Subcommittee would
take on Civil Rights legislation.
Senator Hennings presented an
Omnibus Bill, which was composed
of most of the substance of (a)
President Eisenhower's program,
as introduced by Senator Dirksen,
and co-sponsored by all Republican
members of the Senate Judiciary
Committee; (b) the four Civil
Rights Bills, as reported by the
Subcommittee last year, and CO.
sponsored by Senators Hennings,
LANCER and O'Mahoney; and (c) a
number of separate bills introduced
by Senator Humphrey and others.
Senator Hennings moved today
that the Omnibus Bill be reported
favorably to the Judiciary Com
mittee without further delay. He
said that extensive hearings had
been held last year-April thru
July-and that all points of view
on these matters were well-known.
His motion was voted down five to
two. Senator Hennings then NOV
ed that hearings on all Civil Rights
Bills before the Constitutional
Rights Committee begin on Febr-
uary II, and be limited to two
weeks, at the end of which time,
the Committee proceed to take def
mite action, voting the bills up of
down. This motion was defeated
four votes to three.
After the meeting was over, Sen
ator Hennings made the following
statement:
81 am convinced that there is a
demand from the country that a
Civil Rights program be enacted
promptly. | want to do everything
can to see that definitive &C
ton is taken without delay . .
Extensive hearings were held last
year over a four months period.
Much of the substance of this
Omnibus Bill was approved by the
House last year, and other parts
were approved by this Subcommit-
tee. All points of view on the
subject of civil rights have been
fully aired in the past.
81 was very disappointed that
the Committee would neither agree
to report out the Omnibus Bill
nor agree upon a definite time
limit on hearings before the Con.
stitutional Rights Committee. How.
ever, as long as we are going te
have hearings, I am going to see
that they start promptly; there.
