The stakes are ι unusually high this year for North Carolina and the South η the Congressional elections. If :he Republicans gain control of Congress, it will mean that the South will lose a majority of the najor committee chairmanships η both the House and Senate. When committee chairman ships are considered in light of .•ivil rights and other legislation in which the South has a deep interest, this year's election be comes even more iminirtant. j SENATE. in the Senate, for example, if the Republican-* ;ain control of Congress. it will I η can that Srii. James Kastlaiui; if Mississippi will be replaced) is chairman of the Senate Judi-I •iary Committee by Sen. Alex-I »nder Wiley of Wisconsin. This is the committee that handles! ill civil lights legislation. Just as important is the Sen-] ite Labor and Public Welfare Committee, which handles most jf the social legislation other than civil rights. If the Demo crats lose control of Congress. Sen. Lister Hill of Alabama will! t>e replaced as chairman of thi·-! .•ommittee by Sen. Alexander Smith of New Jersey.
