Absences on cloture vote cloud civil rights housing debate
Two senators who supported cloture, Eugenio McCarthy of Minnesota and Flor ison A Williams of New Jersey, were absent along with John O Pastore of Rhode Island who is recovering from a heart attack and had supported cloture. The main opposition centered on an open housing amendment from Walter Mondale and Edward Brooke that would ban housing discrimination. The proposal narrowed from about 91 percent coverage to 70 percent in a recent compromise. Senate Leader Mike Mansfield warned the nation faces a grave period in its history, likening it to the Civil War.
