Sixth Congressional District
Under Possible Federal Control
U. S. Sep. Horace S. Kor
negay voiced concern last
week that three of the foar
counties la the Sixth Con
pcasional District be repres
ents in Congress nay in the
(■tare "find Federal exam
iners controlling oar voting
processes."
The third-term Congreasman
in a speech delivered to the
West Durham Businessmen's
Association, said that Durham,
Orange and Guilford Coun
ties as well as 21 other
North Carolina counties—
could conceivably come under
the provisions of the Voting
Rights Act of 1965.
Congressman Kornegay
pointed out that the law pass
ed by the first session of the
current 89th Congress auto
matically covers a State or
political subdivision such as a
county or municipality) if (1)
any test or device, such as a
literacy requirement, is main
tained as a prerequisite to re
gistration or voting as of Nov
ember, 1964, and (2) had a
total voting population of
which less than 50 per cent
were registered or actually
voted in the last Presidential
election.
The Greensbor j resident,
who has been traveling
throughout the district since
Congress recessed in late Oc
tober. refered to recent an
nouncements that the Census
Bureau would undertake in
the near future a special cen
sus in 24 North Carolina
counties, including the three
in his district to determine
current population figures.
Congressman Kornegay said
he has been informed by the
Census Bureau that Durham,
Orange and Guilford Cown-
Lies are 'borderline" insofar
as population and voting rec
ords under the Voting
Right* .Act—are .concerned.
All three counties, he said,
were close to the SO per cent
voting minimum contained in
the uew law and that "know
ing what tremendous growth
we have experienced here in
the Piedmont over the past
few years, I am fearful of
the consequences."
The Sixth District Repre
sentative charged that the
"weired and complicated 50
per cent formula" in the law
was inequitable. He said that
"because many of our citi
zens cared less last Novem
ber, we are in danger of be
ing penalised.
Because a number of our
potential voters white and
non-white-are apathetic or at
least not enthusiastic enough
about some of the political
candidates on the ballot, we
may come under the aegis
of federal vote control— even
though there is not a scintilla
of evidence that voting dis
crimination is in practice in
this area.''
Kornega\ took issue with
aome of the other provisions
of the new Act, such as the
feature which provides that
a subdivision may be remov
ed from the Act's coverage
only by filing a suit in a
three-judge Federal Court in
the District of Columbia. He
said this "divests" North Ca
rolina Federal judges of ju
risdiction and places the case
in Washington, D.C. "This."
he aaid, "expresses complete
lack of confidence in the in
tegrity of the Federal Dis
trict Courts of this nation.
This also means that, if we
are covered, we must bear the
trouble and expense of going
to Washington to plead our
case."
He further pointed out that
competing the States or po
lical subdivisions to go to
court to prove their inno
sence is a "principle which is
totally foreign to our time
honored tradition of Ameri
can jurisprudence. We would
have to show to the three
judges sitting in Washington
that we were innocent, even
though no one had accused us
of wrongful doing in the first
place."
He said he could think of
bo other law which "requires
the accused first to file a
law suit to declare his inno
cence and secondly to re
move the jurisdiction to a
foreign court."
The young North Carolina
Congressman, who formerly
served as a Superior Court
solicitor, said he had not been
able to discover any com
plaints regarding voter dis
crimination in the Sixth Dis
trict. "If there has been no
complaints regarding our vot
ing procedures," he asked,
"why go to all this trouble
and expense in the first
place?"
He estimated that the speci
al census surveys in the 42
N. C. counties will cost
the government approximate
ly SBOO,OOO. "This is an awful
lot to pay," he said, "to find
out that we are too lazy
to go to the polls or to dis
cover that we don't really
care enough who gets elect
ed."
Congressman Koraegay said
the "voting privilege" shoe Id
be available to "IM per oeat
of our qualified citisenry—
net SO per cent, not 99 per
cent."
He stated it was his "be
lief that it is reprehensible
and indefensible to deprive
any qualified citizen his right
and obligation to vote. Any
citiaen and every citizen, re
gardless of his race, his col
or, sex or political suasion,
should be guaranteed the
choice to register and to vote.'
He also said that he would
have supported an "equita
ble and nondiscriminatory"
Voting Rights Act which was
sectionally uniform and which
did not penalize voting units
where "apathy and lethargy"
is found.

VETERANS
CORNER
EDITOR'S NOTE: Below aft
authoritative answers by the
Veterans Administratis® to
some of the many current
questions from former service
men and their families. Fur
ther information on veterans
benefits may be obtained at
any VA office. r
Q —l applied for and have
bMm accepted °fbr the newly
reopened N&LI insurance. I
now find that-the payments for
$19,000 are too expensive for
me. Can I reduce this amount?
A—Yes. You can reduce it
to any amount in wist of
SI,OOO in multiples Of >BOO.
Q—Can you please tell me
where I may obtain a record
or discharge of a man who
was in -the Navy during the
years 1815 to 1911.
. A—Yqm might write to the
Officer in Charge, Discharged
Enlisted Personnel Records
Branch, U.' S. Naval Records
Management Center, 9700
P*®p Sd**»A, IflUfe,
Missouri.
Q-Could you tell me If tny
husband is eligible for a GI
loan? He was inducted into
the service in March, IMS and
was discharged in February,
IMS.
A— He would appear to be
eligible. By adding, according
to the formula, ten years to
his date of discharge (Feb
ruary, 1946 to February, 1856)
and then one year for each 90
days he was on active duty
(there are 11 such 90-day
periods in his two years and
11 months of service) we reach
February, 19g7 as the expira
tion period for his entitlement.
However, he should check
with his VA regional office to
make this more explicit by
using the actual dates of in
duction and discharge.
