Marine Fisheries Commission. One proposal is to change the minimum size of striped bass (rockfish) from 12 to 18 inches in the coastal fishing waters of Pamlico, Pungo, Neuse and Trent Rivers and their tributaries. Also to be considered is whether or not a tolerance should be allowed on undersized striped bass in those water systems. For example, if 20 are caught, one could be NOTICE! Richard N.

TUB CHOWAN HERALD Congressional Report From Washington "tsssr On Thursday, August 3, the House and Senate recessed until September 5. The final week was a busy one with the sessions run ning until the late hours of the evening. In spite of this, much legislative work remains to be done in both the House and Senate. As we recessed, the Senate served notice that they would not approve of the Gas Rationing and Conservation Plan which the House had approved earlier in the week. This is due to several amendments which ac cording to Senate leaders and President Carter, considerably weakened the bill. These included certain options with the thermostat controls that would exempt businesses which could prove they were saving energy in other ways to offset the air conditioning or heating. Other amendments included the provision that all farmers would be given preferential treatment for Hoke Roberson, Jr. Jim Elliott Kenneth Worrell Joe Holley Jerry Stotesbury Mike Ervin fuel for harvesting their crops. Another amendment required that the Depart ment of Energy guarantee afi residents of the northeast part of the country to have sufficient fuel for heating purposes during the coming winter. What will happen when we return in Sep tember will be that the Conferees from the House and Senate who have been appointed will have to at tempt to compromise the differences in order to give President Carter the legislation he desires. Another unsolved matter is the appropriation for i 960 for HEW, the differences existing over the very controversial question of using. federal funds for abortions under certain circumstances. The House version provides for funding only if the mother’s life is in danger. The Senate insists that in addition to this language that funds be provided in the case of rape or incest_ if promptly reported. This will be the ABSOLUTLY!!

Os great interest was die House action an Representative Charles Diggs of Michigan who was publicly censured for misuse of his office fundß. There was a movement to expel Congressman Diggs but in the entire history of the Congress, only three members have never been expelled and this was due to charges of treason where Southern members of Congress also took an oath to become members of the Confederate government. There are some, of course, who fed that Congressman Diggs’ punishment was not severe enough; but in ad dition to the censuring which strips him of his Chairmanship as well as all seniority, he is facing a three-year prison sentence and this is on appeal, and should the higher court uphold this conviction, then it is very probable that the majority of the House would vote for expulsion. Also last week as Chairman of the House Subcommittee on Tobacco, we tried to ascertain why the average flue-cured prices in Georgia and Florida were so much less than the 1978 season. Un fortunately, this is a situation where no one has a factual answer, but only fixed opinions. Fortunately, the average price has in creased in recent days. As previously reported, the schedule for the Congress was to adjourn “sine die” cm October l, but in my opinion with all the Devices Required Coast Guard boarding teams have noticed a drastic increase of boats not carrying a Coast Guard approved throwable lifesaving device. Federal law requires that all boats longer than sixteen feet, carry a Coast Guard ap proved throwable lifesaving device. Thursday, August 8. MW unfinished business facing us, including the Salt Treaty in the Senate, this is now a virtual impossibility, and we are now thinking in terms of December rather than October. Since the Congress will not be in session for the next four weeks, this column will be suspended for this period of time. A reception was held in the Capitol for the recently departed Secretory of HEW, Joe Califano. Along with other Members of the North Carolina delegation, I did not attend A maximum fine of (500 can be levied. The Coast Guard urges all boaters to think of the children and non-swimmers whose lives might depend on a throwable device. It’s a small investment to make, and it could save someone’s life. f PONtIAC I I OtOSMOBILi I I BUICK I I HK TRUCKS I id
