Cochairman of
Committee Sees
Stronger Stand
Ls Angeles - IUPI) - The co
chairman of the Democratic
Platform committee agreed to
day with Sen. John F. Ken
nedy's prediction that the par
ty will take a "more precise"
stand on civil rights this year.
Former Solicitor General
Philip B. Pcrlman, who will
preside at the opening of pre
convention hearings by the
108-member committee today,
told newsmen the civil rights
"situation has changed a
whole lot since 1956."
Perlman explained that
Congress has passed two civil
rights bills since the last
Democratic convention four
years ago but these were con
fined largely to voting guar
antees. 'There are a tot of other
problems connected with civil
rights that have not yet been
the subjects of legislation,"
Perlman said. "There are
many - and I am not speak
ing for the committee - but
there are many people dis
appointed that Congress has
confined its bills to this one
phase, voting."
Perlman said the civil
rights issue, source of past
convention battles between
Northern and Southern dele
gates, again would be the
most controversial platform
item. And he said he would
expect minority reports from
the committee, composed of
two delegates from each state,
Puerto Rico, the Canal Zone,
Virgin Islands and the Dis
trict of Columbia.
Agrees With Kennedy
But he said he agreed with
Kennedy's answer at a news
conference Monday when the
candidate for the presidential
nomination was asked if he
wanted a stronger civil rights
plank than the one adopted
in 1956.
Kennedy said: "I think
times have changed since
1956. I think the language
will be different. I think it
will be clearer, more precise
and it will affirm more
strongly the right of every
American to have an equal
opportunity to develop his
talents."
