...from the N.A.A.C.P. and the A.F.L.-C.l.O. for it. During the debate, the G.O.P.'s respected William Mc-Culloch of Ohio warned the House that a "no" vote would mean that "the most effective civil rights law in our nation's history will be emasculated.'' Celler was now as strongly in favor of the package as he had been opposed to the 18-year-old vote provision standing alone. Said one cynical observer: "Some of the boys threw a net over Manny and explained the facts of life...
...firms are created, one with and one without the congressional partner. The Congressman's firm takes no cases that involve appearances before federal agencies, because that is illegal.

Consequently Ford, seeking a more receptive forum, proposed a step that would be considered by the House Rules Committee under conservative Southern Democrat William Colmer. Last week Ford got 52 Republicans and 53 Democrats to sign a resolution calling for the creation of a select...
...Leasco acquired Philadelphia's Reliance Insurance Co., an old-line company with useful cash assets. This deal, accomplished through a stock swap, sparked an inquiry by Brooklyn Democratic Congressman Emanuel Celler, who has serious doubts about conglomerates' taking over insurance companies and using their funds for expansion. Among the details turned up in hearings last week was that, in preparing the bid, Leasco executives used the code name "Raquel" for Reliance to conceal the identity of the target from even Leasco's own employees...
