No Truman Retreat l ; On Civil Rights No Placating Os Dixie Democrats Washington, Feb. 9 —(UP) — The White House said today there will be no retreat on President Truman’s civil rights program to placate revolting southern Democrats. Press secretary Charles G. Ross denied “absolutely” a prediction by one of Mr. Truman's principal congressional advisers that the administration would back down a ‘ little. The congressional source suggested that Mr. Truman might make a new statement on civil ' rights which would drop out his request for legislation to prohibit racial discrimination on railroads and other forms of interstate transportation. His proposals for anti-lynching, anti-poll tax and fair employment legislation would remain. White House conferences with protesting southerners have been forecast as a likely development of the uproar which developed around last week’s civil rights message. Other usually well informed presons held that Mr. Truman would be in serious election year trouble if any part of his racial, poll tax or anti-lynching legislation were enacted. His chance of avoiding southern rebellion against his reelection may ultimately depend on the senate’s ability to filibuster the program until it is quite dead. Mr. Truman should rest fairly easy on that because the senate probably will filibuster the bills to extinction. If so, the south might be expected to be content with resolutions and a party-jarring protest -at the Democratic national convention, still short of a bolt. 0 Let us have faith that right makes might: and in that faith let ub to the end. dare to do our duty as we understand it.
