Next Monday the House is sched- uled to decide whether it will debate the Gavagan bill cn Tuesday. Sup- porters of the Gavagah measure has- tened to declare that the action of the House yesterday was not indicative of its stand on anti-lynching legislation. Declared Political Gesture. “The House refused,” sald Repre- sentative Fish, Republican, of New York, one of the supporters of the Gavagan measure, “to consider the Mitchell bill because it does not rep- resent the views and wishes of the colored people of America. It is con- sidered an emasculated anti-lynch- ing bill and merely a political ges- ture and camoufiage.” Opponents of the Gavagan measure meanwhile are mobilizing their forces for a clear-cut test of their strength next week.
