New Assignment Termed Most Serious By Ervin :
w ashi.nutun? wniie attend
ing the Jefferson-Jackson Day Din
ner in Raleigh, I got word that I
had been named to a special sub
committee of the Senate Armed
Services Committee to make an in
quiry into our air defense.
My reaction to this is that it is
the moat serious responsibility that
has ever been assigned to me. We
all know that our survival as a free
nation depends in the first instance
on adequate defense. The inquiry
that we will make comes as a con
sequence of grave doubts by many
people in high places of respon
e
a'.billty that our air defense, in
planes and missiles and other last
minute weapons of intercontinental
defense, has failed to keep pace
with the requirements for safety
in this troubled era. Some, feel the
urgency of acceleration in develop
ing these weapons so greatly that
they suggest what is called a
"crash" prcj ram, meaning that no
effort or money should be spared
to realize this defense goal.
With these conditions prevailing,
Senator Russell, Chairman of the
Armed Services Committee, felt it
wise to probe our air defense fully, i
Senator Symington .former Sec re- ,
tary of the Air Force. Is the chair
man of the subcommittee. Other
members are Senators Jackson and
myself, Democrats, and Senators
Salstonstall and Duff, Republicans.
I have been busy virtually every
day attending briefings of the
Armed Setyices Committee by top
Pentagon officials. Their reports
lead me to believe that this study
is urgent.
Debate on the farm bill has been
lengthy. Agriculture touches our
nation In many respects as a re- 1
K tonal problem. In North Carolina *
we think of our tobacco, cotton, '
peanuts and com as the chief row
crops; Kansas thinks of wheat; >
Iowa, corn, etc. These regional I
Interests, all legitimate and requir- >
ing attention as they fit Into the >
national picture, necessitate care- 1
ful study and debate. We will be- I
gin voting on amendments leading
to final passage ef the bill by the
time you read this. As some indica
tion of the scope of the farm bill,
there are at this writing some 50'
ir mor? amendments printed and ,
waiting action by the Senate
fating on thia bill will cut across
wlitieal lines, and it will be inter
esting to follow the voting, which
nany feel will be close.
Last-week I asked the Depart
ment of Agriculture to consider
tMiying surplus North Carolina
rweet potatoes in its purchase ar
srngement for the school lunch
program. Before I sat down to pre
pare this article, the Fruit and
Vegetable Division of the Depart
ment of Agriculture called to say
that North Carolina ASC offices in
the sweet potato areas will be noti
fied right away of their plan to
purchase sweet potatoes in these
inn of North Carolina. The school
lunch program is one of the moat
success/el and practical applica
tions of logic.
