CONGRESSMAN WALTER E. JONES
The asrd Congress convened
at 12 Noon January 3rd with the
largest number of new mem
bers being sworn in at any time
in recent years. It is difficult to
judge whether the new
Congress will be more liberal or
conservative, and this will be
determined by the pattern of
voting of the new members.
On Tuesday the Democratic
members caucused for the
purpose of electing a Speaker in
replacing the missing Majority
leader, Hon. Hale Boggs of
Louisana, which certainly
brought an area of sadness to aU
members.
Also the recent death of
President Truman added to the
solemnity of the occasion.
President Truman by an
criteria was considered by
many of us as one of the out
standing Presidents of this
century.

Looking Ahead
No man was ever called upon
to make as many impiortant
decisions and whether one
agreed with him or not, no one
could question his courage or
hia confidence
Many of us who are concerned
with the agricultural pronams
have been alarmed by the ac
tion of the Nixon administration
in recent days and they are as
follows:
(1) The termination of the
subsidies for tobacco expwts
which has meant to much to
North Carolina and other
tobacco producing states;
(2) The withholdiiig of all
funds for the Rural En
vironmental Action Program.
This replaced the old
Agriculture Conservation
practice act and as far as we
are concenied has added much
to the conservation of the water
and soil, which are two of our
most important natural
resources. I intend to join with
others in protesting this action
immediately upon my return to
Washington.
(3) Along with another an
nouncement of the stopping of
the Farm Emergency I^n
Program to those who have
suffered losses due to Natural
disasters which not only will
affect the individual farmer but
will have an adverse effect on
the equipment and fertilizer
dealers, banks and many otiier
businesses which depend on the
agricultural economy for their
success.
We are all concerned about
the deficit spending but I take
the position that there are many
other progrmns which can be
curtailed that do not produce
the net results of the three
agricultural programs just
mentioned. Heading the list
there are many billions that are
wasted in “foreign aid”. The
93rd Congress should be con
troversial and exciting and all
of us are awaiting the
Pre^dent’s State of the Union
mes^e and his proposals for
changes and reductions.
Agidn I renew my pledge tp
always vote for that which I
believe to be the wishes ot the
majority of those of you who
live in the 1st Congressicmal
District, which means that I
shall siQ>port the Ihresident in
his recommendations to
Congress which I believe will be
to the best interests of the First
