Senate Gets Bills to Check “hate Bombers”; F. B. I. Action Proposed

Seven bills designed to bring F. B. I. action against “hate bombers” of religious institutions and schools were introduced in the Senate today by a number of Senators, including Jacob K Javits and Kenneth B. Keating of New York. Representative John V. Lindsay, New York, will introduce the same seven-bill package in the House. The measures would also ban “hate mail” which promotes violence.

(The American Jewish Congress, in a policy statement made public today, requested the enactment of a Federal anti-dynamiting law to permit the F. B.I. to investigate all instances of racial and religious bombings. It also suggested that President Eisenhower call a national White House Conference “to dramatize the breakdown of respect for law in the South and to remind all Americans that respect for law is a responsibility of all Americans.”)
