YOU CAN'T GO WRONG WITH A WHITE PORTABLE *69.w Warrenton Warranto*. N. C. The phrase "That's Thirty" Is a printer's symbol for ?finis." News From The General Assembly By REP. JAMES D. SPEED RALEIGH - Bills have now been Introduced to create and establish East Carolina Uni versity. This, being one of the major Issues of the 1967 ses sion, will be in the headlines for several more months. After being considered by the committees on Higher Educa tion, It will probably be sent to the Committee on Ap propriations. If it clears the hurdles In these committees, a strong battle will be waged on the floor of both houses. I am pleased to be among the co-sponsors of the East Carolina bill and will give my full support to It We feel that our colleagues in the Gen eial Assembly should con sider the contribution East Carolina has madetoour state and especially the Eastern half, and recognize that sepa rate university stutus is vitally Important to maintain and promote the present and future growth of the region and total development of all North Carolina. A complete overhauling of the present consolidated single University system could, at some future time, possibly bring Justification for also consolidating East Car olina University. But until this Is done and proof Is present ed to bear out all the facts, I I feel a separate university should be established at | Greenville. In this connection I believe the report of the Hodges Study Commission on the size, makeup and manner of selec tion of the present 100 mem ber University of North Car olina board of trustees has much merit and deserves ser ious and thoughtful considera tion. The Hodges Commission has recommended a drastic reduction In size of the board, staggered terms and restric tions on who may serve. Cer tainly alternate proposals will be made and there will be ef forts to resist changing the present set-up in any way. Now In the sixth week of the session, the legislative machines are running at full throttle with many Important bills already introduced and many more being drafted each day to be dropped In the hop pers during the next few days and weeks. Several so-called "brown bagging" ABC bills dealing with control and possession of legal liquor are before the Propositions and Grievances committees, and public hear ings on the liquor question began this week. Full scale public hearings were held Tuesday with nearly two dozen witnesses presenting various views and arguments pro and con as to what they and their groups believe to be workable, practical and right for the peo ple of North Carolina. A chance for people to express their views Is one of the bet ter things afforded by our Democratic form of govern ment. I am among the many legislators who strongly be lieve In urging the people to exercise this cherished pri vilege on matters of public In terest and Importance. Many of the Issues this session will attract widespread interest and attention and a record number of public hearings will probably he held. Among important bills which have been Introduced and are receiving much com ment: H. B. 206-Introduced by Johnson of Duplin ? "to ex empt North Carolina from the Federal act making Daylight Saving Time mandatory." If this bill passes, North Car olina will continue to follow Eastern Standard Time this summer. H. B. 188-Introduced by Ervln - "making It a fel ony to commit an assault with a deadly weapon resulting In serious Injury even though there Is no Intent to kill." H.B. 181-Introdqced by An drews - "To amend Article VI of the Constitution of North Carolina so as to lower the minimum voting age to 18 years." This would be sub mitted to the voters at the next general electtoh. A bill was Introduced last Friday (S.B. 94 - Senator Currle) to appropriate $85, 000 to continue operation of the Law School at North Car olina College at Durham for the next blennlum. The Ad visory Budget Commission had only recommended funds to operate the law school one more year, after which opera tions were to cease. The law school Is, In my opinion, ser ving a useful and practical purpose and should be contin ued. I will give my support to this bill. As chairman of the House Agriculture committee I hp.vc this week Introduced, together with Reps. Chase of Wayne, Everett of Pitt and Johnson of Duplin, legislation to tighten control and prevention of hog cholera, by making the pre sent statutes more enforce able and practical, thus carry ing out Intent of this legis lation. It authorizes the State Veterinarian to exercise his Judgment for necessity of de stroying swine Infected with or exposed to such disease, not withstanding wishes of the owners of said swine. Com pensation is provided. The Legislature Joined many leading North Caro linians asking President Johnson to appoint Associate Justice Susie Sharp to the U. S. Supreme Court.
