INSPITEO^raaUSIONr
THE CIV STILLS THINKS
PEMBROKE RESCUE
SQUAD DESERVES OUR
SUPPORT
For some reason (and
probably it was a good one for
whomever excluded the Caro
lina Indian Voice from the
festivities) the hometown
newspaper was not invited
nor informed of a benefit held
Monday night in behalf of the
Pembroke Rescue Squad. I
wish we had been notified,
and allowed to help publicize
it. Anyway, our friend, Dr.
Ken Johnson, covered the
event for us. (See Front Page
Story). We're grateful to him.
But the newspaper busi
ness is a strange one. where
one can make a reader mad
without meaning to. One can
get mad about something
written, or not written. We've
had people get mad with us
both ways.
No matter, the Pembroke
Rescue Squad deserves our
support. The volunteer or
ganization has been a positive
influence in the Pembroke
Community. We ought to sing
its praises, whether anyone is
mad with us or not. That's
besides the point: the truth of
the matter is we need one
another. I cannot be effective
without supporting the rescue
squad, and the squad can be
more effective in rand raising
by using the communications
vehicle of the Carolina Indian
Voice.
> t
We have little control about
people getting mad with us.
Sometimes we don't even
know what they got mad
about in the first place. And
sometimes we do know. Some
people get mad with us about
politics, because we either
supported a particular candi
date or we didn't. You never
know what people are going to
get mad about. But one has to
keep on keeping on. There is
no other answer.
For instance, a local law
nroi (all Indian, of course) has
intimated that they are going
to stop running their legal
notices with us. Evidently we
are being punished for sup
porting the wrong candidate
a newspaper in provincial and
race conscious Robeson
County would not be easy.
And 1 am here to report that it
certainly is not..It's tough,
<?arn tough. But we've been
publishing almost ten years
now and I guess we'll keep
publishing the Carolina Indi
an Voice until I get tired of it.
And I am tired of it more often
than not these days.
Still, it has its good side
too. Every once in a while
someone will write me or stop
me on the street and thank me
for publishing the Carolina
Indian Voice. That gets my
juices flowing, makes me
want to run on, in spite of the
mad ones in our midst.
I Hke writing positive,
upbeat stuff about my people,
hke last week's article about
Commander Ronnie Sutton
who recently retired from
active service, or, Dennis
k>wry. an outstanding Lum
bee businessman next week.
THE POSITIVE
DIFFERENCE
That's what I really hke
^ J!?' And 1 supporting
Stake at die Wind!', and
other positive entities in the
community like LRDA, and
many of its components, and
the Pembroke Community
Workshop, and Pembroke
State University, and more.
Most times the good over
rides the bad; that's the
positive difference as I see it.

Parsonage Completed for
Pleasant Grove
United Methodist
Church
Nathan Strickland, chairman of the
administrative board of Pleasant Groive
United Methodist Church, presents a
check to Charles E. Oxendine, project
director for the Union Civic Club, the
contractor for the parsonage.
The Union Civic Club was the
contractor of record for the newly
constructed parsonage, realizing the
church thousands of dollars in labor and
services.
Others shown in the photo areRev.
JerTy Lowry, one of the original members
of Union Civic Club; Mrs. Velma
Spaulding, building fund treasurer, and
member of the administrative board;
Mrs. Edith Steen, member of the
administrative board; and Rev. Sam
Wynn, pastor of Pleasant Grove.
The Union Civic Club,begun in 1978,
donated their labor and services to build
the parsonage at a considerable savings,
with Charles E. Oxendine, a building
contractor, served as project director.
Noted Oxendine. ''This is the biggest
project we have undertaken but it has
given us a lot of satisfaction because it is
something that wi)l be helpful to our
community." The present president of
Union Civic Club is Vance Locklear. Rev.
Lowry said, "Our club is something we
guys organized to do things for our
community to make it a better place to
live."
Rev. Wynn, on behalf of the church,
expressed graditude to the club for a job
well done. The church parsonage la
located in the Hopewell community
directly in front of Pleasant Grove United
Methodist Church.
Soma say that the phrase
"rule of thumb" comes
from a practice that was
once common among brew
masters. The chief brewer
used to test the temperature
of a batch of brew by dip
ping in his thumb.

WASHINGTON?Last week in this report, I discussed
the events leading up to the July 14 debate in the Senate
which led to approval of a biW entitled "The No Net Cost ;
Tobacco Program Act of 1982." Had this legislation nor been
i enacted by the Senate, the tobacco program would have been
gravely, perhaps fatally, damaged.
But after a full day's debate, the Senate approved the bill,
77-17. The tobacco program was saved. The bill was not.
by any means, satisfactory to everybody, and least of all
to tobacco farmers. But they were willing to sacrifice in order
to save the program. I am very proud of them.
EAGLETON?It was Senator Eagleton of Missouri
who led the fight against the tobacco program with two
"killer" amendments, both of which were rejected by the Sen
ate. The first (defeated by 56-40) was aimed at the support as
pects of the tobacco program. The second would have had
the effect of "sunsetting" the tobacco program in three
years?that is, it would have allowed the automatic expira- ?
tion, in 1985, of some of the basic statutory authority for the
program. This amendment was defeated, 49-47.
We have had a number of inquiries about whether
there was partisanship in the fight to save the tobacco program.
We have also been asked for a breakdown of the roll-call
votes on the two Eagleton "killer" amendments.
J would emphasize that Senator Walter Huddleston
of Kentucky is a splendid Senator to have as a partner, both
in the operation of the Senate Agriculture Committee and in
standing up for the tobacco program. Senator Huddleston is
jWhat we call the "ranking Democrat" on the committee.
As chairman of the committee, I consult constantly with
Senator Huddleston.
Moreover, I consider our committee to be a bipartisan
one?and I intend to keep it that way. American agriculture
is too important to be subjected to partisan politics. I have
repeatedly taken the position that I refuse to play politics
'with the tobacco program.
\ .
I VOTE COUNT?The tobacco program would not have
I been saved without the work and cooperation by both Repub
licans and Democrats in the Senate. Senator East, for example,
|did a remarkable job in explaining the legislation to his fellow
(freshman Senators. Senator Ford, the Democratic junior
(Senator from Kentucky, worked hard as well. Senator Thur
^mond, president pro tern of the Senate, was exceedingly
effective. The Majority Leader of the Senate, Senator Howard
Baker, was helpful every step of the way, as were1 Harry
Byrd and John Warner of Virginia.
So it was bipartisan, and the legislation could not
have passed without votes from both sides of the aisles.
As I mentioned earlier, both of Senator Eagistor's
"killei 'aili*nuftMMn wtere defeated. "The"first arrWhdfnint
was tabled by a margin of 56-40. The vote count: 32 Repub
licans voted to save the tobacco program; 23 Democrats
plus Senator Harry Byrd of Virginia (an Independent) voted
in favor of the program. Opposition to the tobacco program
was evenly divided; 20 Republicans and 20 Democrats voted
against the program.
The close vote on the second Eagleton Amendment
(49-47) found 29 Republicans supporting the tobacco program,
along with 19 Democrats plus Senator Harry Byrd. A total of
24 Democrats and 23 Republicans voted against the program.
In any event, perhaps we can breathe a bit more easily
for the time being. I'm sure, however, that the issue will
continue to come up in both the House and the Senate.
Needless to say, I intend to stav on quard.
