as if they would be chewed
to pieces.
At Congress ' dug In for
(he legislative battle, the
House announced that the
President had invited 30 Ne
gro and white "civil rights
leaders" to meet with him
Saturday. Included were the
Rev. Martin Luther King Jr.,
and Roy Wilkins, head of the
National Association for Ad
vancement of Colored People
(NAACP).
The Saturday session was
seen as an effort by Kennedy
to urge moderation on inte
grationist leaders while Con
gress considers his legislation;
In his message Wednesday the
President urged the Negro
community to halt demorutra
tions that lead to violence.
Kennedy conferred at the
White House Wednesday with
2S0 leading educators. He
asked 'them to set up a com
mittee that would work at
the grass roots level to pro
vide better schooling without
racial barriers. Participants
said there seemed to be gen
eral agreement to his request.

In Congress the initial re
action to the President's pro

Southerners were so angry
they threatened not only a
filibuster but use ' of their
long held committee chair
manships to bottle up the rest
of Kennedy's legislative program.
Although the President
painted the nation's civil
rights needs with a fairly
broad brush, interest was fo
cused on a handful of specific
requests.
First among these was Ken
nedy's call for a new law to
forbid racial discrimination in
hotels, stores, theaters, restau
rants and other places of "pub
lic accommodation." This
seemed sure to furnish the
principal battleground for the
1963 civil rights fight.
With differing details, the
public accommodations meas
ure had bipartisan support
and a fairly good chance of
House passage. But it did not
have top-level COP backing
in the Senate and its fate
there in the face of a certain
southern filibuster was con
sidered doubtful.
Another more familiar civil
rights measure with a dim
future was a Fair Employment
Practices commission (FEPC).
A House labor subcommittee
Wednesday approved such a
bill, designed to outlaw job
discrimination in private busi
ness. Had Committee Backing
The bill had substantial bi
partisan backing in the com-

which was introduced as legis
lation by administration back
ers in both houses.
The proposal to let the Jus
tice Department Initiate school
desegregation suits - which
was dropped from earlier
rights bills as too hot to han
dle - was given a good chance
to pass. ,
Another key section of the
big bill-actually requested
earlier Uiis year would con
tinue the six-year process of
trying to assure Negro vot
ing rights. This would .be
done through controls on the
use of literacy tests and expe
diting court tests of voting
suits. This was too tough to
get through last session,, but
its difficulties now pale in
comparison to the public ac
commodations and FEPC pro
posals. A second entirely new pro
posal would give government
officials the option of either
paying or withholding fed
eral aid to states which prac
tice racial discrimination in
carrying out federally assist
ed welfare, education and
other programs.
Denounced By Southerners
Kennedy asked this as a
substitute for a flat cutoff of
federal funds in cases of dis
crimination. Southern critics
immediately denounced it as
a totalitarian plan. ,
Other provisions of the
main bill would set up a
"community relations serv
ice" to seek peaceful solutions
to racial disputes, extend the
life of the Civil Rights com
mission for four years beyond
Sept. 30, give permanent sta
tus to the Equal Employment
Opportunities commission to
fight discrimination in fed
eral agencies and by govern
ment contractors, and provide
"technical assistance" to
school districts which need
help in desegregating class-
rooms.
All of these requests are
controversial and the Presi
dent can get none of them
without a fight. But with the
battle joined on such a broad
front, it appeared likely he
would win on some.
The House Judiciary com
mittee was expected to start
hearings on the main bill
next week. Chairman Eman
uel Celler (D-N.Y.) was aim
ing to produce a bill, hopeful
ly with bipartisan backing, by
late July.

Denver Man at
Medford Meeting
The $12 billion business of
advertising is threatened by
increasing governmental regu
lations and intercference, Lee
Fondren, Denver, Colo., radio
executive said in an address
here Wednesday noon.
Speaking before the newly
organized Southern Oregon
Advertising club at the Col
ony restaurant, Fondren
warned that the Industry
which can sell almost 7 mil
lion new au'.cTK'biles in a sin
gle year is facing Increasing
restrictions because the people
of the U. S. are accepting the
"big brother ' thinking in fed
cm I and state government.
Federal subsidies to slates
which prohibit outdoor post
ers along certain highways,
I and vicious and all-embracing
I bits o( legislation passed to
! cripple the entire industry
j such as the Baltimore city tux
on all advertising, were cited
by the speaker.
The economic impact of
governmental interference, if
1 successful, would be tremen
dous, according to Gronden.
For each dollar spent in ad
vertising, the government re
alizes $7 in taxes on the sale
; of the products advertised by
; that dollar.
Lee Fronden. a former pres
ident of the Advertising As-
! soclation of the West and man
ager of station KLZ in Don-
( ver, stressed the fact that
those engaged in the business
of advertising should tell the
truth about their profession,
tell what its function is in our
society and why the whole
I country will suffer from the
! present wave of restrictive
; legislation against legitimate
advertising.
Officers for th newly
formed advertising club here
I will be selected at th next
' meeting of th group.
