Friday, July 7, 1972 THE NEW BERN MIRROR, NEW BERN, N. C. Page Three Washington Report — By — CONORISSMAN WALTBR B. JONBS Hie House rushed towards the Fourth of July recess by putting in a long legislative week. Among the legislation con sidered was most cmitroversial bill, the National Capitol Transportation Act. The legislation provided for Federal guarantees of obligations issued by the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority. This was, in essence, asking the Congress to guarantee bonds issued by the District of Columbia, and I could not agree to setting such a precedent, for if it is done for the City of Washington, there is no reason by all municipalities throughout the nation could not be eligible for such consideration.

Real Estate Transfers Also passed by the House was the fiscal ’73 appropriations for Public Works and the Atomic Energy Commission in the amount of $5.4 billion. Because of the serious energy situation facing the nation, high funding priority was given to the many rower related agencies and activities, including planning and construction of hydroelectric projects by the of Engineers. The Military Procurement Authorization for fiscal ’73 was also passed in the amount of $21.3 billion, which included $6 million for family housing construction rlated to the SAFEGUARD ABM site in North Dakota. By a record vote of 325 to 9, the House passed legislation to reduce the interest rate on Small Business Adminisiraticm disaster loans. In disaster areas the interest rates under this Act will vary from 1 percent to 3 percent, rather than the current 5% percent. Much heated debate resulted Thursday on the Agriculture ^propriations bill for fiscal ’73 in the amount of $12.8 billion. The debate revolved around an amendment that sought to prohibit the issuance ^ food stamps to households who need assistance because any member of such household is on strike. It was estimated that the food stamp program cost the tax payers of this nation in excess of $400 million to sup plement strikers alone; and statistics show that the program has had the effect of prolonging industrial conflicts and disputes.

Stamp Program, this country lost an average of 17 million days a yror because of strikes of 60 days or more. Those figures had grown to 66 million man days in 1970 and 30 million days of that was in strikes of more than 60 days. In other words, it went up from one4hird to more than 45 per cent; in fact, statements of labor leaders themselves in con nection with a 122 day strike admit that they could not probably held out that long, without the food stamps. Efforts were also made to provide a limitation of $20,000 in farm subsidies, excluding sugar and wool, as against toe present limitation, but the amendment was defeated and the limitation remains at $55,000 maximum. The'House adjourned at the close of business on Friday, June 30, fw the Fourth of July Congressional recess, which will also include the week of the Democratic National Con- vetion, and will reconvene on Monday, Jidy 17.
