next week In an effort to wear out
the southern speechmakers and
bring the bill to a vote.
The bill’s proponents said they
were encouraged by a statement
from Vice President Gamer yester-
day that henceforth Senate debate
rules will be "strictly enforced.”
Gamer said the rules prohibit
more than two speeches by one
Senator on one subject in any leg-
islative day. Also, he said, the rules
provide any Senator loses the floor
when he yields for any purpose ex-
cept to answer a question.
Connally Sees Way
Connally said strict enforcement
of the rules would not hamper op-
ponents of the bill, pointing out
that senators may speak twice on
the measure and twice on each
amendment to it.
On the floor, Senator Ellender,
Democrat. Louisiana, continued his
long denunciation of the bill. El-
lender, who started speaking last
Friday, discussed dangers which he
said would result from any “amal-
gamation” of the white and negro
races.
