A House Judiciary subcommittee on stronger civil rights laws was urged to enhance federal protection for African Americans from violence. James M. Hinton warned that Blacks lack legal protection and suffer bodily harm and property destruction. Georgia leaders pushed for federal judicial power in segregation disputes.
