| Description | Cartoon shows a train labeled "civil rights" with an engine bears identified as "cloture" which moves rocks lying on the tracks out of the path of the train. One engineer tells another that they are a hundred years late, remarking on the Civil War a century before. After 75 days of filibuster the Senate, on June 10, voted to invoke cloture to cut off debate on the civil rights bill that later led to the Civil Rights Act of 1964. |
