The Trl-County Ministerial As
sociation, . whose members ' are
: ministers of Chowan..' Gates and
Perquimans counties, at its regu
I lar meeting, in August, expressed
i its concern over the . matters in-
'f wiving public education wRMh" are
' to- be decided by the voters of
i North Carolina in a Bpecial referen-
dum on September 8. Rarely has
an issue arisen to match, this prob
lem In importance, complexity and
need for careful and prayerful de
liberation. Although the immedi
te issue is the future of the public
school system, the Underlying prob-
lem involves racial relations so di-
- rectly that the two must be con
x sidered together. ' Because this un
derlying problem is basically moral
and spiritual, it is a vital concern
of Christian people of each race
' i, "We call upon, all Christians to
give , prayerful - consideration . to
moral and spiritual issues involved
., before going to the polls on Sep-
tember 8. It is our sincere prayer
I-' that under the guidance of. God's
i ' spirit we caa reach- a Christian so-
1 lotion which will be fair in its.ef-
feet on all people.' '
' "WV believe on the one hand that
' "past and present customs in race
' relations are not the last word in
i i governing our plans for the future.

As John-the Apostle reminds us,

if.
Washington We hear much
about -the legislative leaders in
Congress.' The folks behind the
scenes are seldom noticed. ' My pur
pose today, is to tell you about an
unusual record that has just been
made by an employee of the Sen-1
aB.
i Behind The Scenes :
i James W. Murphy is the chief
official reporter of Senate debates.
The unusual feature of this story
is that Mr. Murphy is 1 of 5 mem
bers of a family that has given un
interrupted service as reporters of
debate for the Senate since 1848.
As a matter of fact, the Murphys
established, the , reporting service
108 fears' Ago. His father,' Ed
ward. Murphy, began his duties
as a reporter in 1860, held the job
for 59 years; his uncle, Dennis F
Murphy, was selected by Senator
John C. Calhoun 5n 1848 to take
down the Verbatim reports of de
bates instead of summaries as was
the custom priof to'that timer."
K !.-v4, Lata i Pencils ' .
Imagine the debates over, a 60
year period I, "That is the service
record of James W. Murphy.' Since
December 7, 1896, he has been an
official reporter of Senate debates,
Prior to adjournment the Senate
passed a resolution praising Mr.
Murphy for his important-service
and unique record.
; Looking at his record a bit more,
Mr. Murphy had been taking down
debate! in the!. Senate 26 years
when a freshman Senator from
Georgia, Walter F. George, took
his seat. Senator George is the
senior Senator and 'is retiring from
his seat. , 1
Mr. ,Murphy does not plan to re
tire at the present time. When
asked what he was going to do ttf-
ter the Congress adjourned (he had
been up late' hours for several
nights) he responded with a very
human statement: ' "I'm going to
stay in bed a wee"k!" ,
