The young lady you may not recognize, never
having seen her so concealed as with all this
bridal finery, is Brigitte Bardot. The 'bride-
groom" is Henri Vidal, who undoubtedly can
trace his cOmposure to the fact that he has
married the girl twice before in films. This
third wedding" takes place in 'VOulez Vous
Dancer avec Moi" now being filmed on the

South.
Northern cities shared the
commissions criticism of ra-
cial barriers that deny Negroes
equal housing opportunities by
walling them into slum dis
tricts.
The commission proposed
that President Eisenhower issue
an executive order Stating the
constitutional objective of equal
opportunity in housing" and
directing all Federal agencies
to shape their policies toward
this end.
In housing as in school inte-
grafton its proposals indicated
a preference for the voluntary
approach, with a minimum of
Federal interference in essen
TALLY local problems.
Creation of biracial housing
committees was recommended
for all cities and States with
stable nonwhite populations.
Their purpose would be to in
vestigate complaints and deal
with racial problems in housing
through mediation and con-
Citation.
Under the commission plan
the Federal voting registrars
would be appointed by Presi-
dent Eisenhower. They would
be Federal employees who lived
in the localities involved, such
as the postmaster or the United
States attorney.
Receipt of nine or more COM
plants in any area from indi-
viduals denied registration for
an election which included Fed
eral offices would start the plan
in motion. The President could
appoint a Federal registrar
after an investigation by the
Civil Rights Commission TO de-
termine whether the complaints
were valid.
Registrars Job Described
Once appointed, the regis
trar would serve as long as the
Pre- sident considered neces-
sary. He would administer the
State laws for voting qualifi-
cations and issue qualified

Senate and presidential
electors.
The Civil Rights Commits
sion is scheduled to go out Of |
existence in so days, unless 1t
is extended by Congress. Five
OF the six commissioners, all
except Mr.. johnson, are ex-
pected to resign in any event,
leaving President Eisenhower
with the difficult task Of find
ing requirements for men he
recruited with difficulty in

By the Asloclated Prom

A North-South row flared ir
the Senate last night over the
indignation issue.
Before 1t was over, Senator,
Thurmond. Democrat of South
Carolina, and Javits, Republi.
can Of New York, were called Il
order for some Of their remarks
Senator Thurmond at one
point accused Senator Javits Of
trying to create tensions anc
stir UP racial hatreds" in the
South and Of trying to force
school indignation down the
Threats Of segregation-minded
Southerners.
The row stemmed from q
speech in which Senator Thur
mond called attention to recent
murders and other Juvenile
crime in New York.
Senator Thurmond said seq
regated schools in his State
don't have such problems, and
he didn't want indignation
forced upon them.
Senator Javits heatedly re.
torted that the cause of the New
York crime wave was not inte-
grafton. He said the city now
is paying a penalty for a lack
OF what he called parity In
housing and educational oppor-
tunities for its citizens.
He said he wanted to know
whether Congress was going To
act on civil rights legislation al
this session, or wait so to 100
years.
South Carolina Is not going
to accept integration," Senator
Thurmond snapped. He said he
was tired Of legislators from
other areas trying. as he put it,
TO force things down the South's
throat.
Senator Eastland, Democrat
OF Mississippi, and Senator
Thurmond then teamed up, with
Senator Eastland asking leading
questions and Senator Thur
mond coming up with replies.

(Thurmond) be ashamed il

at one point.
IF I lived in that State ]

ator Thurmond replied.
Why" asked Senator East
land. doesn't he (Senator
Javits) go back to New York
and promote justice and har-
mony?"
Senators Javits, Thurmond
and Eastland all were talking
on time borrowed from Senator
Morse, Democrat Of Oregon, a
civil rights advocate who had
the floor to make a speech.
Senator Morse called Sena-
tor Thurmond to order for
stating that Senator /, Javits
would have his hands full II

ders and rapes in New. York. I"
Senator Morse said this vio-

provides that mo Senator in
debate shall refer extensively
to other States of the Union. +"
Senator Bartlett, Democrat
OF Alaska, presiding over the
Senate, ordered Senator Thur
mond to sit down, as the rules
require for such an infraction.
Senator Javits had the same
rule, invoked against him. by
Senator Thurmond for saying
that New Workers, l6 million
strong. were paying taxes that
went to help support South
ern States. Senator Javits
said New York does have an
interest in what goes on in the
South.
Senator Javits finally was
permitted to resume, however,
and said he would keep up a
fight for strong civil rights
legislation in this session. but

nah. The Southerners are
Robert @. Storey. former dean
Of Southern Methodist Univer-
sity Law School; Doyle E. Carl
ton, former Governor Of Flor
ida. and Mr.. Battle.
The Northern members de-
scribed the provision for Fed
eral registrars as a "stop-gap"
remedy to make it possible for
many Southern Negroes now
denied voting rights to vote i.
the 1860 elections.
The proposed 23d amend
ment to the Constitution would
provide a permanent safeguard
by prohibiting States from de-
nying any citizen his right to
vote for reasons other than
age, legal confinement or length
of residence. This would throw
out the literacy tests now re-
quired by 10 States, most, of
them in the South.
Government POwerless
The Federal Government is
powerless to guarantee voting
rights as long as the literacy
test can be used to discriminate
against Negroes, the three
Northerners declared.
While the Attorney General
has filed suits under the 1857
Civil Rights Act in behalf OF
Negroes denied voting rights
no one has yet been registered
as result. the report noted.
Chairman Hannah said the
report makes clear that the
civil rights problem is not con-
fined to either the South or
the North but is a dilemma
that concerns all Americans.
I'VE believe that this report, !
whose bipartisan contributors
include both Southerners and
Northerners. will greatly assist
the public in understanding q
problem that cries for solu-
tion," he said.
Record Preservation Urged
AS expected, the commission
recommended a Federal law
requiring that all State voting
records must be preserved for
five years and open to public
inspection. State officials sue
ceeded in partially blocking its
efforts to obtain voting records
during on-the-scene investiga-
tons in Alabama and Louisi-
ana.
Another recommendation
would add to the 1860 census
questions designed to provide
information now unavailable
on the number Of Negroes who
are being denied voting rights.
In the field Of education the
commission proposed making
Itself a clearing house for in
formation to help local COM
munities with school desegre-
cation problems. 1t also rec
an annual school
census to help gauge integra-
lion progress.
