Eisenhower Proposed Moderate Civil Rights Program Proposal Sidesteps Key Issues WASHINGTON (UPI) — President Eisenhower sent Congress today a moderate seven-point'civil rights pro gram designed tomake \equal protection of laws... a reality for all.\ The Chief Executive's rec ommendations would let the government provide tern porary aid to localities where schools had been desegre gated and would allow fed eral authorities to give local officails aid in prosecuting school and church bombings But the program did not in clude controversial proposals to give the Justice Department pow er to seek injunctions or ille civil suits in civil rights cases. Differs From Others The President's program went further than the four-point pro gram of Senate Democratic lead- er Lyndon B Johnson (Tex ) but It lacked the sweeping scope of a stronger bill sponsored by Sen Paul H Douglas (D-Ill) and other northerners The President asked , —Legislation to make force or threats of force to obstruct court orders in school desegregation cases a federal offense —Greater authority for the FBI in investigating destruction of schools or churches including au thority to seek persons fleeing from state to- state in such cases —Power for the attorney gen eral to inspect federal election records and to require that such records be maintained \for a rea sonable period of time \ Asks Money Aid —\A temporary program of fi nancial and technical aid to state and local agencies to assist .them in making the necessary adjust ment required by school desegre gation decisions.' Legislation to authorize tempo rary provisions for educating chil dren of military personnel when public schools are dosed beeause+ of integration orders. This was aimed at the recent situation in the Norfolk, Va.. area. —That Congress consider set ting up a permanent \commission on equal job opportunity under government contracts.\ Vice President Richard M. Nixon now beads a similar presidential com mittee but it hat not permanent status as an arm of the govern ment —A two-year extension of the Civil flights Commission, which is due to expire in September Seek Every Means The main proposal in Johnson's program called for a federal con ciliation Mjrvice for : civit right«4 disputes The President said in his civil rights message- that \two princi ples basic to our system of gov ernment are' that trier rule of law- is supreme, and that every indi vidual regardless of his race, re ligion, or national origin ts en titled to the equal protection of the laws \ Morris Elected Louis G. Morris of the Bndi- cott Johnson Corp. is the first president of the newly organ ized Endicott - Vestal - Endwell Chamber of Commerce. Page 3.
