PAGE EIGHT-B Senator Sam J, Ervin Says WASHINGTON Senator Jordan and I recently ap peared before the Senate Subcommittee on Public Works Appropriations in l>ehalf of North Carolina’s requests for water resource projects. We sought fiscal 1969 funds for the continuing development of our rivers, Harbors and waterways for the construction of the New Hope Reservoir Dam, rhe Falls of the Neuse Reservoir, and some 20 ether important projects, surveys and studies.

It is the only true liquid solution formulation of diphenamid—and a real solution for weed control in peanuts. One application at crack ing (when you know you have a stand of peanuts) gives up to full season control of a broad spectrum of weeds and grasses. See it now at: Home Feed & Fertilizer Co.

The Senate-approved bill which I introduced to pro tect the privacy of federal employees got a boost last week when Rep. David Henderson announced that his House Manpower Sub committee will give prior ity consideration to this legislation. In the Senate debate on the omnibus anticrime bill which contains provisions which I introduced to per TU CHOWAN HERALD. EDENTON, NORIM CAROLINA. THURSDAY, MAY IS, 1968. mit the use of voluntary confessions and eyewit ness testimony in criminal prosecutions, and certain other procedural changes, I strongly urged the Senate to retain my amendments last week. To any one familial' with this legislation and its background, it is unneces sary to say that these amendments are necessitat ed by decisions which the U. S. Supreme Court has rendered in the Mirando, Escobedo and other cases. Such decisions have tilted the scales of justice in a fashion that the criminal now enjoys an advantage that is of serious conse quence in the control of crime. Our cities are in grave danger of becoming jungles of anarchy where shopkeepers and the citi zenry live in senseless jeopardy. Only a generation ago, there was the deterring philosophy that “crime does not pay” because the criminal would almost al ways be brought to justice. In the span of a few years, however, Americans have begun to doubt the validity of that statement when they «ee our streets turned into canyons of violence and crime rates are soar ing each month. Strangely, there are too few voices raised in pub lic places against violence or crime or even bad con duct. It has become popu lar in some quarters to of fer excuses for the violat ors of the law. Today, the law enforcement officer in some areas of the country may find that the court is more interested in what the officer did to warn the crim'nal of his rights than it is in what the criminal did to the victim. Certainly, the defendant in a criminal trial should have his rights safeguard ed at every step of his trial. This does not mean, however, that we must cod dle or ignore the robber, the arsonist or the perpetrator of other serious crimes and misdemeanors. Nor should the Congress sit back and watch tragedy be. fall our land, because it is unwilling to restore sen sible rules in the trial of criminals. I think the amendments which I have offered to the omnibus anticrime bill to restore reasonable rules for the trial of criminal cases are essential if we are to pevent crime from disrupt ing our economy and our government. For this rea son, I have urged the Sen ate to accept my amend ments. Death Claims M. C. Gregory Mack C.
