Mr. President. I listened very attentively to the distinguished Senator from Georgia . Seldom in my long legislative experience have I seen within the frame of a single speech so many ghosts discovered under the same bed. but I am confident that if the civil rights bill is enacted the heavens will not be rent asunder. the waters will not part. the earth will not rock and roll. and we will go on. as we always have. and add to the course of our progress the protection and the safeguarding of the rights of citizens of the United States. because the 14th amendment to the Constitution makes all native born and naturalized citizens. and those subject to its jurisdiction. citizens not only of the State where they reside but citizens of the United States. The civil rights bill. which will be under consideration soon. is concerned with only one thing. and that is the proper safeguarding of the citizens of our common country.
