SENATOR A 1
SAM ERVIN A
tt SAYS **
Washington A resume of;
activity for the second session 1
of the present Congress shows i
that 766 measures have been
passed. The Senate has passed
278 bills, 19 joint resolutions and
21 concurrent resolutions since
January. Furthermore, the Sen
ate has reported 930 measures.
There have been 115 simple reso
lutions acted upon.
Measures The total number
of measures introduced during
the 86th Congress, January, 1960
to date, is 4,412 for the Senate
and 14,875 for the House. The
majority of these measures, pub
lic and private, will not be en
acted betore the end of the pres
ent Congress.
When the Congressional bills
are divided between the appro
priate committees it is obvious
that the committees have a vital
role in the legislative process.
This role is sometimes little un
derstood by Congressional critics.
As I view it, the value of a
committee is not only to try to
report out the best possible legis
lation but it is also to prevent
the reporting of ill-conceived,
unnecessary and harmful meas
ures.
Time lt has required 116
days this session to accomplish

the enactment of 278 bills along
with the other measures. Brok
en down into time segments, this
totals 936 hours and 19 minutes
in session for the Senate, re
quiring over 9,000 pages in the
Congressional Record to record
the proceedings. There have
been 112 quorum calls and 116
yea-and-nay votes in the Sen
ate this year.
Ahead On ■ the eve of the
return of the Senate for action
on a number of controversial
measures, the Senate is sched
| uled to act on such measures as
: health benefits for the aged,
I minimum wage and foreign aid
1 bills. It will not be a summer
| holiday that faces Congress be
' cause the atmosphere will be
j charged with the campaign and
three of the four nominees of
j both parties, including both par
ty chairmen, will be present on

The road immediately ahead is
not going to be easy. I urge
the people of North Carolina to
carefully watch the actions of
Congress in this most unusual
session. I shall continue to do
all within my power to halt the
enactment of unnecessary and
unwise measures.

How He Knew
A man fell into a coma and it
, was several days before he
awoke. Later he spoke of his
I experience to a party of friends.
“Oh. yes.” the young man said
in reply to a question, "I knew
' all the time what was going on,
•end I also knew that I wasn’t
j dead, because my fe<*l*tvef*‘ cold
and I was hungry.”
"I see." said one of his friends
thoughtfully; "but how did that
make you think vou were still
.alive?”
; ''Well.” answered the man, “I
knew that if 1 were in Heaven I
.wouldn't be hungry, and that if
1 were anywhere else my feet
wouldn’t be cold.”
