THURSDAY, AUGUST 5, 1965 Rights of Law Abiding Citizens On Firearms Appearing before the House Ways and Means Committee in Washington Monday, at torney Arthur Beckham of Statesville urged that any leg islation regulating firearms should fully protect the rights of law-abiding citizens to ob tain and keep firearms. Beck ham represented the North Carolina Rifle and Pistol as sociation composed of approxi mately 4,500 members in North Carolina. He was introduced to the Committee by Congress man James T. Broyhill. The Committee is now considering a number of proposals for gun control legislation. In his testimony, Beckham spoke in opposition to the bill endorsed by the Johnson Ad ministration which he charged is "so restrictive and its ef fects are so far reaching that it could, over a period of time, disarm law-abiding Am erican citizens completely." The Statesville attorney ex plained that the Whie House Bill would delegate "to an ap pointed official . . . almost un limited authority to make any capricious or arbitrary rules which he, in his discretion, might desire." Beckham contended other measures would be more ad visable in correcting abuses in firearms traffic that now exist. He proposed a system model led after provisions of the North Carolina law. Under this plan, any person wishing \to purchase a hand gun mlist first procure a permit to p«r :hase either from the Clerk of Superior Court or the sheriff of. his own county. This sim ple requirement, Beckham «aid, goes directly to the heart of the problem since the per son's character and qualifica tions must be passed upon loc ally before the permit it is sued. Insane persons, crim inals and'minors would be el iminated in efforts to obtain weapons. "The present problem could be corrected, to tTie degree that any legislative action can deal with the issue, if a Uni form Firearms Act could be adopted by all 50 states," Beckham declared.
