Texans Halt Fire
InKuwuitOiIWeII

ROME, Aug. Ia (AP.-A
team Of oil-f1re fighters from
Houston. Tex, succeeded yes
terday in putting out a gas fire
that had been burning for II
days at a Japanese drilling site
in the Persian Gulf.
Sources here said no one was
injured in the fire but that
damage to drilling equipment
amounted to 100000.
Drilling at the site 20 miles
off Kuwait can be resumed in
about three months, the sources
said. The hole was capped to
prevent further escape of gas.

The four other features Of
the Hennings program are:
To require all local voting
tests to be made available in
writing, a declaration by Con-
gress that segregation violates
the Constitution. a provision for
technical aid to communities
with segregation problems,
Federal penalties for bombing
churches or schools, and Fed
eral education facilities for
children Of military personnel
in areas where schools are
closed because Of deSegregation
issues.
The committee acted on the
proposal regarding the civil
rights commission after a dis
cussion limited to 20 minutes.
Senator Erwin, author of the
proposal, said he did not regard
the debate limitation on that
question as setting a pattern
for the rest of the bill. Other
amendments, he said, are more
complicated and would require
more discussion.
Two Remedies
II 1t becomes apparent that
the Southerners are going to
fllibuster in committee. the
other side has two remedies.
1t could ask the Senate to dis
charge the committee from fur
ther consideration Of the bill, or
offer a series Of civil rights
amendments to some other
legislation already pending be-
fore the Senate, as Senator
Hennings said he intends to do.
The Senate seldom has re-
sorted to the discharge pro-
cedure. but it has no rule
requiring amendments to be
germane to a bill.
The Judiciary Committee is
presided over by Senator East
land, Democrat of Mississippi.
His State is now having a run
of race for the Democratic
nomination for Governor.

Hennings Tries
For Showdown
On Rights Bill
BY J. A. O'LEARY
star Stan Writer

Senator Hennings, Democrat
Of Missouri. sought a showdown
on civil rights in the Senate
Judiciary Committee today by
offering a strong eight-point
substitute for the mild two
point subcommittee bill.
Senator Wiley, Republican of
Wisconsin. who left the closed
meeting early, reported that
Senator Hennings got the floor
after the committee defeated,
"a, a move by Senator Erwin,
Democrat Of North Carolina, to
let the Civil Rights Commits
sion die this fall.
Senator Hennings agreed that
what happens at today's COM
mittee meeting will tell the
tale" on whether there is any
hope of getting a bill out of
the committee.
Reaffirms Intention
He also reaffirmed his inten-
ton of bypassing the commit
tee by offering civil rights
amendments to some bill al
ready before the Senate if the
committee stalemate continues.
Today's decisions in the Jul
dietary Committee will have an
important bearing on whether
Congress can adjourn before
Labor Day.
The Hennings substitute in
cludes the two provisions in
the subcommittee bill-extend-
ing the life of the commission
until January, 1861. and re-
quiring States to preserve vot-
ing records for three years.
Among the five additional
points offered by Senator Hen
nings is the controversial Title
III of the 1857 bill. which
would empower the Attorney
General to file civil suits to
enforce school indignation and
all other constitutional rights.
The Title III provision could
lead to the defeat of the Hen
nings substitute unless it is
eliminated. because it has been
turned down by the last Con-
gress and by the House COM
mittee this year.
