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.
