Push to break southern filibuster dominates Senate plans
Washington March 10 The Truman administration readies a major move on Thursday to end the southern filibuster blocking civil rights and other bills. Democratic Leader Lucas says success hinges on a Barkley ruling that two thirds can gag debate, else the obstruction may continue. The rent control extension, Taft Hartley repeal, and anti Communist mail labeling are among key items in play as Congress weighs compromises and legislative tactics. The butter bloc also wins a skirmish as margarine tax battles loom in the House.
