Voting Rights May Face First Test WASHINGTON (UPD-A House judiciary subcommittee may take its first test vote to day on a key section of Presi dent Kennedy's controversial civil rights bill. Rep. Emanuel Celler (D-N.Y.) chairman of the subcommittee and the parent judiciary com mittee, said there was a chance the provisions to guarantee vot ing rights for Negroes could be tentatively cleared at a closed door session. The voting rights section ordi narily would be the object of much controversy, but this year arguments about the public ac commodations section and the proposed cutoff of federal aid to states practicing discrimina tion have tended to shield it. But there still is a great deal of potential conflict in the sec tion, especially in its provisions for temporary voting referees and a legal presumption of lit eracy for persons who have completed six grades of school. Resolution Adopted By Roosevelt League A resolution urging ratifica tion of the Partial Nuclear Test ban treaty was unanimously passed by the Eleanor Roose velt League at a meeting at the Public Library of Medfor and Jackson County Monday. Mrs Harlan Bosworth, who presented the resolution, was authorized to wire copies of the resolution to President Kennedy and to Sens. Wayne Morse and Maurine Neuberger. The ratifi cation bill is now before the senate.
