sell of South Carolina, all southern
Democrats. All spoke against the
proposed legislation.
Rolvaag's testimony was praised
by Senator John Pastore Dem,
RI and Senator Hugh Scott,
(Rep., Pa Scott however qhzzed
Rolvaag on why he voted with the
Democratic governors at the Gov
ernors Conference to discontinue
the resolutions committee, a ruse
which the Democrats used to pre-
vent a formal resolution on civil
rights which would have been
fought by southern Democrats and
was sponsored by Gov. Nelson
Rockefeller.
The vote on the motion 10 Rbol-
ish the resolution committee was
strict party line vote with all
Democrats voting yes, except the
Gov of Alaska William Egan who
voted no, with the Republicans to
keep the committee.

waag stated: IT voted 10 abolish
the Resolutions Committee but not

Rolvaag stated he thought Cows.

ing.
Following is the complete text Of
Gov. Rolvaag's statement before
the Senate Commerce committee
at Washington:
As governor of Minnesota,
strongly urge passage Of the pub
lie accommodations bill. I believe
that President Kennedy has wise
ly emphasized that the states; local
communities and individual citizens
have n large measure of the re-
sponsibility for providing equal
rights for all citizens.
Nevertheless, the intensity of
the present drive for racial equal
ity makes it obvious that new
federal action is necessary.
The principles of civil liberty,
equal opportunity and equal pro-
lection under the law are part of
our national heritage. Putting
these principles into practice has
been a continuous challenge to all
levels of government and to sOcie-
ty. This challenge continues to be
unmet, and may well be the most
critical, social and moral issue Of
our time.
Two centuries after the Declara-
ton of Independence, the Amer
lean dream OF equality of oppOr-
tunity remains, for millions of my
fellow citizens, an illusion.
It is bitterly ironiC that at this
stage of our nations history it is
necessary for Congress to main
tain Commission on Civil Rights;
for courts to be called upon to en-
force a citizens right to vote, or
to go to school; or for legislation
to be necessary to secure for our
citizens their unalienable rights as
Americans. Our duty to secure
the rights of all men requires that
we give to the problem of racial
discrimination our earnest thought
and most vigorous action.
Racial and religious discrimina-
ton sometimes results in the den
ial of constitutional rights and
more often it manifests itself In
a basic disregard for human de-

Deseqreqution A NutionuI Movement

Desegregufion A NGfionuI Movement
The cause of desegregation must cease
to be a Negro movement, blessed by white
politicians from the Northern states. It
must become a national movement to en-
force national laws led and directed by the
rational government q. If it Is still posi-
BILE, and think it is, TO hold and even re-
cover the confidence of the Negroes, in the
good faith of the whites, then this is the
basic principle by which to do it. It Is to
make plain by word and deed that the Ne
groes are no longer a weak and isolated
minority trying to push the nation into
doing what the national law and American
principles require it TO do-Walter Ltpp-
man.

Bartlett Would
 Seize Alien Ships In Alaska Waters
Associated Press Special Service

WASHINGTON LR - Seizure of foreign fishing vessels in terri torial waters of the United States is proposed in a bill to be intro duced in Congress tomorrow by Sen E. L. Bartlett
 Bartlett said in a statement to- day that his action follows report ed sightingS of Russian whaling ships in waters off Alaska.
 The bill would provide a fine up to Sl0.000 or Imprisonment up to year, or both, for any master or other person in charge of a vessel seized in territorial waters.
 q have been advised that be- tween July 28 and July 30 eight Soviet whaling vessels were sight ed within 112 miles of SutWik and Nakchamil islands west of Ko- diak," Bartlett reported.
 Our laws are wholly made quate to deal with these increasing incidents" he continued. "These recent Soviet activities simply fur | nish another example of the heed less fishing practices which have 1 been adopted all over the world l by fleets of certain countries, con- stituting a grave danger to world fish stocks.
 Another Alaska example of this | pattern was furnished in early July when three Japanese whaling l vessels were sighted between Hazy and Coronation islands and an other whaler was sighted operat- ing of Cape Edgecumbe, all in territorial waters"
