John Culver, Republican Stall

Rusenhlum also pleaded for a
national grass roots campaign"
TO indicate the true feelings OF the
American people on this subject.
"A so-called Republican grass
roots campaign put enough pres

Congressmen are sensitive to the
views from the folks at home. or
az least the views OF those who
bother to write.
Unless our Congressman are
made aware of how important we
regard the passage OF strong and
workable civil rights legislation.
they are certain to pass a bin
more consistent with the views of
Dixiecrats and Northern Conser-
vative Republicans.
Passage Of the jury trial a.
mendment would be the master
stroke as far as Southern Dixie
Gratis and conservative northern
Republicans are concerned.
I'VE note with interest that
many of the outstanding legal
minds Of this country have come
out In opposition to the jury trial
amendment. We concur with their
opinion that passage OF this
amendment win change the entire
general law OF the United States
and throw into absolute confusion
our entire legal system.
Despite the fact that we all re-
gard the right of trial by jury AS
sacred 10 our American traditions,
the public should not confuse this
basic right with the equitable pro-
cedure OF injunction. which is also
grounded in the English common
law.

Culver Twits Young Democrats
Meanwhile, John Culver, Ram
sey County COP leader in a tele-
gram TO Gene Rosenblum, Co
chairman Of the YDFL Civil
Rights Committee, urged the
Minnesota YDFL TO seek southern
Young Democrats support Of the
Democratic party platform.
Culver wired:
II commend your efforts TO
separate the sincere supporters
OF President Eisenhower's Civil
Rights Legislation from the
hypocrite delayers.
Il urge your group to wire
Young Democratic Organiza-
tons In the Solid Democratic
Southern States to petition
their chosen representatives TO
support their National Plat
form.
1T would be pertinent TO re-
mind them that nlibuster by
Democratic Senators can only
be construed as a blot on the
National conscience. Surely you
realize II must be a source OF
accute embarrassment TO our
Junior Senator Hubert III.
Humphrey from Minnesota TO
see his own party rejecting any
Civil Rights legislation so Bit

Rosenblum said that the atti-
tude of anti-civil rights senators
in the Democratic party did not
embarrass a civil rights leader

Matter OF FactI

Needles with eyes, buttons and
clasps were known to man as early
as the Stone Age. They have BEEN
found in ruins 10000 years old.
Some needles were made from the
leg-bones of birds. Others, made Of
Ivory, are fine enough to sew any
modern tailored garment. Earliest
surviving skin clothes were often
made of small pieces of fur, sewn
together in elaborate patterns.
