Powell protested this policy in a
letter to Edward Harms, an official of
the Panama line, and was later in*
formed that tha racial designation
was nsed at the request of the Pana-
manian government. He then got In
touch with the Panamanian ambns-
asdor Don Joaduln Josa Vallnrino on
thia question.
Powell received a letter from Ri-
cardo M. Arias, new ambassador of
Panama, last month, explaining that
the Panama company bad been com-
plying with an order iasued by the
Panamanian government in Auguat,
1040, and that the government bad ia-
aued another order in December, 1000,
which auperceded the former letter.
Thia Information was passed on to
an executive of the Panama line who
wrote Powell that "the word 'race'
will be atrieken from the Pannmn
line information aheets," and that "all
agents have been notified accordingly
and future printing* of (these) forms
will have the proper deletion."
Negrophobist
Demos Chair
Key Committees
By tha Aaaoclatad Negro Press
WASHINGTON—Witfc their con-
trol of tha United Btatea aenate, Dam-
ocrats bold tha chairmanships of
tha IB Important standing commit-
tees of that body, and strangely
enough, more than half of tha chair-
men—of tha most important commit-
tces~-are from statea that strongly
oppose desegregation and civil rights.
Hera ara tha men from Dixie:
Hill, Alabnmj, labor and public
welfare; Eastland, Miasissippl, judi-
ciary committee; Russell, Georgia,
armed services; Johnston, 8. C., post
office and civil service; Byrd, Vir-
ginia, finance; Fulbright, Arkansas,
banking and currency; McClellan, Ar-
kansas, government operations, and
EllcAdcr, Louisiana, agriculture.
Chairmanships of Senate commit
♦ees and also in tho Houac, are wot
by seniority and not by merit. Point
ing thia out in a well written piecc
in the New York Times, Senator Rich-
ard L. Neuberger of Washington de-
creed the outmoded practice which
frequently leavea off the committees,
ouallfied men, leaving the direction of
the committee in the hands of men,
unequal to the aituatioji, frequently.
Senator Neuberger makes a point
of stressing the fact that a committee
chairman never can be removed, even
If the national interest is jeopard-
ised by hisjcontinuance in that post
nnd that tna system rewards those
states with one-party aystcms, con-
versely, penalizing states in which
two robust and equally matched politj
cal parties fight It out at the ballot
box. The senator stated:
"In these days of crisis, govern
ment must be flexible to meet nev
situations. The earth is moving at a
mad pace. Emergencies are omni-
present. Yet the congressional rulf
of seniority is rigid, Indexible and un-
yielding."
