Let’s not forget the real meaning. Os all our Christian holidays, Easter is greatly appreciated by those ma ture in spirit and years. Easter is more meaningful to those who have a rich store of experience in meeting the joys and disap pointments of life.

I voted for the bill which will authorize a grant of up to $1 million for North Carolina to establish or improve educational broadcasting facili ties. Television has immense possibilities in the field of edu cation. Already North Carolin ians have seen an effective use of television through WUNC-TV Station in Chapel Hill. The measure now goes to the House for consideration. Anti-Crime Drive A con certed drive against crime in America has been called for by Attorney General Kennedy and has been sanctioned in speeches' in the Senate. At Attorney Gen eral has appointed an Assistant to head the Anti-Crime Division of the Justice Department. Hear ings before the Senate Rackets Committee have shown the need for federal direction of this drive. Local officers find often times that they are at a loss to cope with a nationally organ ized crime syndicate or even a criminal who operates in several states. I favor new hearings in this field by the Senate Judiciary Committee. Textiles Senators from the major textile producing states have suggested a flexible quota as one means of assistance to the textile industry. The Presi dent is aware of the textile prob lem and has appointed a cabinet level committee, including Sec retary of Commerce Hodges, to study the situation. I believe and have so stated in the Sen ate that a system of flexible quo tas by country and by category will deal with the present situ ation in such away as to give our friends in foreign countries such reasonable proportion of our domestic market as they need to have, and at the same time preserve the investments of our local manufacturers in the do mestic market and the jobs of STRAIGHT i BOURBON [gg:| x - I i •’ ■;■• " "?<:'- *'■ ''L'*'- i ‘ C ' '''•■' - H. : V' - .', _ -a •>-. -v-tjC. iv si* p," // gappy' v :;:>;\>j|psSHK|| Kj|Jr -C.

North Carolina families earn i their livelihood in textile plants. .j Since 1947 the United States has , seen 838 textile mills liquidated | with a loss of over 400,000 j American jobs.

After consultations with soil conservation officials in North Carolina and also in the De partment of Agriculture in Washington, I have asked that a proposed “Mechanics of Eros ion" research center be located in our State.
