(JP) Legislation designed to protect the civil rights of service men while they are in the armed forces was passed unanimously today by the house and sent to the senate. A highly technical measure, it won house approval after brief debate and an explanation by Representative Sparkman (D-Ala.) that its primary purpose was to " give relief to the boy who is called into service" and to afford him a "reasonable time" in which to adjust bis financial position after his re turn to civilian life. The bill provides for suspen sion, generally in the discretion of a court, of many civil pro cesses normally applicable in cases Involving installment pay ments, foreclosures, rentals and other financial obligations. Saves Insurance Under its provisions the gov ernment guarantees the pay ment of premiums on private lite insurance policies purchased four years after his discharge to liquidate the premiums that have accumulated in his ab sence. It relieves a service man of liability for payments under leases after he is called into the service, and, limits to six per cent the interest rate that may be charged on an obligation in curred prior to entering the ser vice, regardless of whether higher rates were agreed in the original contract.
