cerned with civil rights: American
Jewish Congress, American Veter-
ans Committee, Americans for
Democratic Action, Anu-Defama-
ton League, International Union
of Electrical Workers, and United
Automobile Workers of America.
In a joint statement released
this week the seven organizations
ask for the immediate abolition
OF the tax through federal legis-
lation." Moreover, the statement
asserts, 1T is a travesty to call
constitutional amendment a civil
rights measure when Congress has
the constitutional power to abolish
the poll tax by legislation as the
Attorney General has testified E.
There is no more reason for pro-
ceeding in the civil rights field by
way of constitutional amendment
when there is ample legislative
authority than there is to proceed
by way of constitutional amend
ment in any other field"
The organizations sharply con-
denim a clause in the pending
measure which provides that
nothing in this article shall be
construed to invalidate any pro-
visions Of law denying the right
to vote to paupers or persons sup
ported at public expense or by
charitable institutions"
Such a proposal, If enacted in
the Constitution, would, the state
ment charges, give this anti
democratic concept a respectable
ty which it has never had before,
and which we regard with the
greatest adherence"
Furthermore, the sta tenn t
points out, enactment Of this
provision would open a Pandora's
box of Legislative pettifogging, and
the litigation which would be re-
quired to block attempts to disen-
franchise the poor by legislative
redefinitions of the words 'paupers
Of persons supported at public ex-
pense' would jam court calenders
for years"
