According to the rules
of the House, any member
may raise the question of
whether or not a quorum
is present on the House
floor, at any given time.
The presiding officer then
estimates or counts and if
217 members are not pres
ent, he then announces
that a quorum is not pres
ent and orders the clerk
to call the roll. This is
known as a “quorum calL”
If, upon calling the roll
twice, less than one-half of
the membership fails to
respond, the quorum is not
present
On Monday, September
23, the above procedure
took place and only 177
members were present;
therefore, under the rules
of the House, it had to ad
journ until such time as a
quorum was present. I
am delighted that I was
present inasmuch as this
was the first time this has
occurred since I entered
the Congress.
Most of the legislation
last week consisted of ac
cepting or rejecting con
ference reports, which
were bills that have been
passed by both bodies, but
in different versions. Os
general interest to our dis
trict was the conference
report on the extension of
the 1965 Farm Act. The
House had included a lim
itation of $20,000 pay
ments to any one farmer.

Report From Washington
By Rep. Walter B. Jones
long and bitter debate, we
were able to adopt the
conference report Which
basically extends the. 1965
act an additional year or
through 1970. This was
passed by only a slim mar
gin of 17 votes. On final
passage, all North Caro
lina Congressmen present
voted for the extension.
The House also took final
action on the conference
report regarding the Food
Stamp Bill. Earlier the
House had included a re
striction on issuing food
stamps to strikers or col
lege students unless they
were otherwise eligible for
food stamps prior to be
coming a college student or
a striker. Many of us felt
that the food stamp pro
gram was not designed for
such uses, but was insti
gated to relieve those of
our citizens who are at an
economic disadvantage. In
any event, the bill as
agreed to does permit
strikers and college stu
dents to use food stamps.
In other action, the
House passed the bill cre
ating the office of the fed
eral magistrate. These of
ficers will have limited
jurisdiction similar to the
JP courts of our state.
The bill provided for a
maximum salary of $22,500
for these positions.

dential election and the
