Smoky Mountains National Park.
Governor Hill McAllister, of
Tennessee, also will speak at the
banquet. A huge motorcade
from all sections of North Carolina
and Eastern Tennessee will
bring guests to the affair.
Senator Reynolds has maintained
keen interest in development
of the Smoky Mountains Park
project and he led the fight to
have the Federal Government select
the North Carolina route to
the park
Following his inquiry into affairs
in the Virgin Islands, Senator
Reynolds expects to proceed
to the Panama Canal Zone where
he will join with Senators Duffy,
Bachman, Austin and Barbour
as a sub-committee of the
Senate Military Affairs Committee
to probe labor conditions in
the Canal Zone. The Senator is
serving as chairman of this subcommittee.
Protection of the Canal
is of growing importance due
to the strategic military position
of this American "Gateway from
East to West."
Following completion of the
Panama Canal investigation, Senator
Reynolds has been invited to
visit numerous South and Central
American countries as an "American
Ambassador of Good Will"
and to study trade conditions
there which may prove helpful to
the United States. He will make
the tour of the South and Central
American countries by airplane
if he finds time to visit
the Latin American neighbors.
During his absence from the
National Capital, Senator Reynolds
will continue to vote by
proxy. He will keep in daily
communication with Senate leaders,
the chairmen of the various
committees on which he serves,
with, those Senators who are
handling various important na.
tional legislative bills, and his office.
Prior to his departure Senator
Reynolds said:
V'Citizens of North Carolina

absence the business of my office

Senator Robert R. Reynolds
'will be conducted with the usual
dispatch and efficiency. My secretary,
Wesley McDonald, and the
j entire office staff will keep me
constantly advised on North
Carolina matters and national affairs.
As I am going on a government
mission delegated to me
by the Senate and the vicePresident
I shall be privileged to
use all communication facilities
for keeping in constant contact
j with the Senate and my office.
[ I deem this important government
assignment a great honor
'for the State of North Carolina."
If he finds time, Senator Reynolds
plans to visit Puerto Rico
to sound out sentiment of the natives
on the subject of their independence.
Senator Reynolds has already
achieved outstanding distinction
as a Federal prober at the Capitol,
as the result of his thorough
inquiry into the inadequacy of the
bankrupt and receivership laws as
was disclosed by his recent introaHcgtiArio

the charges made by the little
borrower that usurious interest
rates were being levied at the
I Capitol. New laws for the pro!
tection of the small bond holder
and the small borrower are expected
to be enacted by the pres'
ent Congress as the result of
i Senator Reynolds' investigations.

Senator King of Utah also was ,
considering offering a Puerto Rican
independence bill, coupled;
with a preferential trade agreement.
Coincident with these interest- I
i n g developments concerning j
United States Southern possessions,
Senator Sheppard intimated
he would seek early action on his
bill seeking to limit employment
in the Canal Zone to American
citizens. This measure, pending
since February 12th, provides that'
only Americans may be employed
in or about the locks, docks, j
coaling plant and other facilities
under the jurisdiction of the
army and navy departments, the
Panama Canal Zone and the Panama
Railway Steamship Line,
"if any such occupations be of a
nature which would permit an j
alien to aid, comfort or support
an enemy in case the United
States was involved in war."
Senator Reynolds has been!
named chairman of the Military,
