Arkansans In Washington By Gordon Brown
Senator McClellan of Arkansas triggered a Senate clash over a civil rights bill amendment. The vote on whether the amendment was germane ended with 33 for Stennis and 48 against, leaving the amendment defeated. The measure would let the attorney general sue to protect workers’ labor rights. Arkansas lawmakers shifted on two federal pay bills, with Trimbles for the $10,000 rise and Gathings against. Harris supported the second increase. Mills changed his stance via a live pair with Herlong, voting present.
