Segregation Debated in House Military Bill
The House Armed Services Committee approved a Winstead amendment allowing draftees to request units by race, a provision absent in the Senate version. The vote was 21 to 12. President Reuther condemned the deal as immoral and urged equality in armed forces. Truman urged action against discrimination, with Defense Dept progress noted in 1950 showing open Army jobs and training to Negro personnel, mixed results across services, and no segregation units in the Navy and Marine Corps. An identical optional segregation proposal failed in the Senate in 1950, with Bricker housing amendments also facing rejection.
