TALUAHASSED Fla June 22. By a vote of 71 to 13 the Florida House adopted a resolution protesting social policies of the administration in entertaining negroes in the White House on parity with white ladies. Several speakers commented on the resolution during hours of debate.
The House resolution condemns a White House social incident involving Mrs Bert Hoover and Oscar De Priest's wife. It targets Florida voters and urges the President to prevent future such scenes while arguing for Anglo Saxon racial ideology. Glenn B. Skipper is named to convey the protest.
