Civil Rights Bill Clears First Hurdle in Congress
The House Judiciary Committee approved a watered down version of President Eisenhower's civil rights bill, defeating Southern attempts to weaken it. Chairman Emanuel Celler said about three fifths of the committee favored the final version, with two fifths opposed, and predicted an overwhelming House passage. The panel removed authority for a federal civil rights commission to investigate unwarranted economic pressures, while keeping protections for voting rights, a civil rights division in the Justice Department, and injunction power to halt violations. The report also notes other congressional items and related foreign affairs notes.
