Two FEPC Bills Bottled Up by Assembly Panel
Sacramento May 10 Two proposals to address employment discrimination were held up in the Assembly committee on governmental efficiency and economy. After a two hour hearing the committee refused to send to the floor both a full scale Fair Employment Practices Commission bill and a Warren administration proposal to study discrimination.
