NAACP Lobbyists Tell
Of Congress Views

meStically ashamed but inter-
nationally mortified"
Negative reports came from
delegates who related that
some Georgia Congressman
said they certainly wouldn't
vote for the bill. Lobbyists
merely glimpsed Senator Nc
Clellan, Democrat of Arkansas,
and they had to catch Senator
Erwin, Democrat of North Caro-
lima, between quorum calls"
The North Carolina delegate
said, ut seems these two Sem
ators Senators Erwin and Jor-
dam from this State are going
to vote against the bill. Sem
ator Jordan said the white folks
had most everything in North
Carolina" The delegate contin-
ued that Senator Jordan said
that to change this would be
like taking candy away from
the people while they're eat
ing it,"
CHEEKY reports came from the
Missouri delegates. Ben Hamil-
ton, the only delegate from
South Dakota, said his States
Republican Senator Mundt and
two Representatives wouldn't
commit themselves to the pub
lie accommodations section, al
though Senator Mundt admit
ted there was a need for the
bill and In general he would
vote for it.
Can Say Hopeful
One delegate who says he's
noticed a definite change in
his Congressman is Samuel
Jackson Of Topeka, Kans., an
attorney. II talked with them
in January. There is so much
difference in attitude. 1t is mel
lowed. Senator Carlson said
he'd be for cloture and it will
be the first time If he does"
This thinking supports the
belief of Clarence Mitchell,
Washington NAACP director,
who said, "All the meetings are
valuable, even with those OPP
posed. 1t let's the country know
they're not speaking for a
unanimous constituency when
they say they're against civil
rights. Anyone looking at the
State of North Carolina can see
Erwin does not speak for all
the people"
Mr.. Mitchell said some of the
favorable reports had not been
played up because some Sen
ators say I'm going to support
it but would rather not be
quoted on it. I am very en-
couraged by today's reports.
There were some from Michi-
gan and New York"
The NAACP roll call, with
many of the key Midwestern
States yet to be heard from,
continues today.

Lobbying has been a some
time thing for the Negro lead
ers winding UP a three-day eff
fort to sell civil rights on the
Hill today.
Their meetings have ranged
from those overlooking with
both good will and people to
negative little chats closed to
the press.
1t is difficult to assess the
Importance of these get
togethers of Congressman and
delegates to the NAACP-spon-
sored legislative strategy con-
ference, for many Of the
reactions were practicable the
togetherness, the apartness and
the wavering in-betweens.
The about Michigan Con-
greSsmen popped for breakfast
for their delegates yesterday.
The only concession Senator
Goldwater, Republican of Ari-
IONA, made to public accom-
modationS, according to dele
gates, was to accommodate
them in his office for two
hours. And Virginia's Demo-
cratic Senator Robertson ended
his flat rejection of the i'm
pending civil rights bill by an
swering a convenient phone
call.
By late afternoon only a
handful of delegates regrouped
in the Statler Hilton to report.
Many were at meetings; others
were sitting out a wait in con-
greSSional offices.
Saw Robertson
Mrs. Ruby Walden Of Hol-
land, Va, said, I'VE saw Rob-
ertson. OF course, to begin with,
he told us he didn't think we
needed any new legislation
whatsoever. He said we had
enough.
HE said the Supreme Court
decision on schools was en-
tirely wrong but he had to go
along with it. We asked what
was wrong with desegregation
and he said it lowered the
standards of their schools. He
said he was from an educated
family 100 years ahead and
that he'd been used to it and
that there were people he
wouldn't want to associate with.
HE admitted we had been
handicapped but he wasn't
willing to do anything about
it. Over all, he wasn't favoring
any Of it (the bill. About this
time a bell rang, he answered
a phone and said he had to CO."
ThurmOnd Adamant
Senator Robertson and Sen
ator Thurmond, Democrat of
South Carolina, refused to let
the press sit in. A delegate,
Billie Fleming, said Thur
mond had no doubts he will
be able to kill the public accom-
modations section. He said
fatty it was not going to pass.
He said he was for freedom,
but when I asked if he'd have
a Negro on his staff he fill
bustered for five minutes and
said it wouldn't be feasible. I"
Meanwhile, Massachusetts,

Cormack and Senator Ted Ken
needy, buttressed the bill with
words of complete acceptance
as they heard a lobbyist Mark

constitutional law at Harvard
University, say that if Con-
gress does not pass civil rights
legislation this year the United
States will be mot only do

sci Robert F. Kneipp explained
that there are no provisions for
controlling the issuance of
fund-campaign licenses pro-
vided the organization falls
under one of several broad
categories.
Mr.. Kneipp drew some criti-
cal comments from some sub
committee members when he
testified that the Mattachine
Society's charter brings its
fund campaign under an educa-
tional category.
The bill by Mr.. Dowdy, which
was opposed in person by the
president of the Mattachine
Society of Washington, has two
sections. One section specifi-
cally calls for the revocation Of
the organizations Embarrassing
license.
Mr.. Kneipp said the Com
Imissioners oppose this provision
on constitutional grounds.
Second Section of Bill
The other section of the bill
would provide that no solicita-
ton permits would be issued
unless the Commissioners decide
that the solicitation which
would be authorized by such
certificate will benefit or assist
in promoting the health, well
fare and morals of the Dis
trict :"
The Commissioners object to
this section, Mr.. Kneipp said,
because it would require hear
ings on all permit applications,
which would impose "a heavy
and difficult burden" on the
city.
In a letter to the House Dis
trict Committee, the Commits
sioners. after spelling out their
objections to the bill, empha-
sized that disposition lis not to
be construed as approving
homoSeXual practices"
The president of the Mat
tachine Society Of Washington,
Franklin E. Kameny, began to
read a prepared statement but
was cut off when the subcom-
mittee was forced to close the
hearing after the House went
into session.
The subcommittee put into
the record a letter stating that
the District Republican Com
mittee supports the Commits
sioners in opposing the bill.
The letter carried the signature
Of Margaret A. Haywood,
identified as special counsel for
the Republican committee.

Vicious, damnable, shocking,
unbelievable, Gestapo, satanic,
police state-these are a few of
the epithets and adjectives
hurled on the House floor in
emotional Southern accents.
The target of the Southern
outpouring yesterday: A De-
tense Department directive
aimed at putting any place that
practices discrimination "off
limits" to United States troops.
Even more Objectionable
from the Southern point of
view was a report, upon which
the directive is based, prepared
by a special biracial advisory
committee appointed by the
President.
Government of Men Charged
This is a time when your
blood does boil" cried Repre-
sentative Hebert. SIS this my
country? Is this the country
I was born into? 1t has
become a government not of
law but Of men and capricious-
ness"
Particularly raising Dixie
blood pressures were such rec
concentrations In the report as
that commanding officers be
judged for promotion partly on
how well they carry out inte-
grafton on and off base, and
that no one should be invited
to base social events whose atti-
tudes are not in agreement
with the indignation policy.
The Southerners were Joined
by several Midwest Republic
cans, such as Representative
Gross Of Iowa, who said the
directive will put into effect
the biggest army Of shoppers
and informers you ever heard
Of. This is an outrage"
Liberals Defend Directive
After the Southerners COM
pleted their hours of wrath, a
corporal's guard Of liberal
Democrats rose to defend the
directive as necessary and
right and aimed at increasing
armed forces morale by COM
batting racial discrimination
against troops.
Representative Stratton,
Democrat of New York, said
the new policy was a continual
ton Of indignation In the
armed forces that goes back
to a l948 directive by Presi-
dent Truman. After that, he
said, grass didn't grow in the
streets and IS troops didn't
march in the corridors"
Others who Joined In de-
Tending the report and direc-

support the coverage that was
offered"
He said that three years ex-
perience with the present in
surer, Walker Agency of Char
lotte, N. c., was unsatisfactory.
School officials decided not to
renew the Walker agreement
for the 1963-64 school year be-
cause Of "a long and unsolved
and uncorrected history Of diff
ficulties in claim settlement
complicated by the fact that
the claims were handled in
Charlotte rather than here"
the memo states.
Walker Agency's bid was one
of three that offered premiums
below the Mutual Of Omaha
rates.
Defending the administra-
tons choice, the memo says
Mutual's rates were reasonable
for the greater coverage Of
fered and that the company's
claim office is nearby, in
Washington.
Mr.. Kelly had contended
that this allegation Of better
claim service could not be
proved, since Guarantee Trust
had offered to provide a toll
free phone line from the school
office building to Baltimore,
the company's nearest claim
bureau.
Results Held Excellent
A direct telephone line would
help speed claim service but
would not be as good as a
local claim office, Mr.. Pope
countered yesterday.
He said school children in
Arlington, Alexandria, the Dis
trict and Prince Georges have
been insured with Mutual.
Fairfax, too, he said, had Eek
cellent" results with the COM
pany four years ago, before
school officials decided to try
lower-cost insurance with the
Charlotte agency. Mr.. Pope re-
Trained from indorsing stricter
procedures for approving the
company that sells accident
policies to pupils.
He said accident insurance
is "still subject to bargain
basement and discount counter
techniques," with policies from
company to company varying
widely.
If the school board decides
that companies must bid on a
uniform policy, the board
would have to set forth Gin
minute detail" Just what it
wants, he added.

.C.Fights BiIICutting
Help for HomosexuoIs

A bill aimed at Gripping
operations of a Washington
group that is working to i'm
prove the lot of the homosexual
was attacked on constitutional
grounds today by District gov
eminent officials.
The Commissioners opposed
the measure at a hearing be-
fore a House District Subcom-
mittee.
The bill, introduced by Rep
resentative Dowdy, Democrat
of Texas, the subcommittee
chairman, would revoke a fund
raising permit issued by city
officials to the Mattachine
Society Of Washington. This
organization, according to its
charter, was formed to protect
homosexuals from discrimina-
ton.
At today's hearing, subcom-
mittee Chairman Dowdy ex-
pressed shock that a situation
could have developed where
District officials have no legal
choice but to approve a fund
raising license for such an
organization.
Amendments Ordered
"I've grown up in a wrong
age" Mr.. Dowdy said.
Near the close of the hearing,
which will be resumed tomor-
row, city officials were in
structed by the subcommittee
members to draft amendments
to the Districts Charitable
Solicitations Act that would
provide legal ground for block
ing Embarrassing drives for
Objectionable goals.
