Now that the 91st Con
gress has convened, we
are happy to resume our
weekly Washington Re
port through the medium
of the press of the First
District
On Friday, January 8,
the 91st Congress con
vened and the first day
was involved with a four
hour debate over the ques
tion of seating Adam Clay
ton Powell of the City of
New York. In an historic
action, the House finally
decided to seat Congress
man Powell upon the con
dition that he pay a fine
of $25,000 and re-enter
minus certain privileges.
It is difficult for me to
reconcile my thinking to
this action. Basically I do
not think the Congress has
the right to impose finan
cial conditions upon any

Report From Washington
By Rep. Walter B. Jones
member being seated.
Either Powell should have
been seated or he should
not have been seated. The
valid reasons for his ex
clusion in the 90th Con
gress still exist, and I find
nothing has happened in
the two years in the way
of restitution, apology or
correction. Along with the
other North Carolina mem
bers of Congress, I voted
against the action to seat
Congressman Powell. In
any event, he was finally
given the oath of office at
about 6:45 P. M. and 20
minutes later a roll call
was held and Congress
man Powell was absent.
On Monday, January 6,
the question of interest to
many North Carolinians
was the electoral vote of
Dr. Bailey of Rocky
Mount, who had cast hil
THE CHOWAN HXBALD, MBITOK, MOTH CAMOUMK WMMT. JANUARY It, IM.
vote for Governor Wallace
even though he was a Re
publican elector. Senator
Muskie and Congressman
O'Hara saw fi( to chal
lenge this vote as being
invalid. The question be
fore the Congress was
whether the Congress un
der the Constitution had
the right to challenge any
electoral vote. The North
Carolina delegation, includ
ing myself, took the posi
tion that Dr. Bailey had
violated no election law of
the State of North Caro
lina and that the returns
of the electoral votes had
been certified as being in
order by the proper offi
cials of the State of
North Carolina. The mo
tion to discount Dr.
Bailey’s vote was defeated
and the North Carolina re
turns prevailed. Although
I vigorously opposed the
action to challenge the
North Carolina electoral
vote, I will agree with
others who insist that we
have outgrown our Elec
toral College system of
electing Presidents, for we
are using the machinery of
the 18 th century here in
the 20th century. I am
convinced that legislation
should be devised which
will permit more direct
participation of me voters
in the naming of the Presi
dential nominees as well
as in the ele.hion of the
President itself.
Os some interest to our
district is that I, along
with 14 other .members of
Congress, introduced a po
tato referendum bill which
will permit the potato pro
ducers of this nation to be
given an opportunity in
an election to vote upon
themselves a one-cent per
hundred weight assess
ment with the proceeds
going towards the research

Much of the time since
convening on January S
has been consumed with
House members seeking to
be elected to different
committees, ones with
more prestige or on com
mittees of particular inter
est to their own districts.
Thursday, January 9.
we had the pleasure of <
meeting and hearing the
Apollo 8 astronauts, Bor- :
man, Lovell and Anders. :
Colonel Borman served as •,
spokesman before the joint
session of the House and i
Senate as well as the
members of the Cabinet ,
and Supreme Court and
everyone was impressed i
with his sincerity and his ,
humble pride in being an ‘
American citizen. Equally (
impressed were the mem
bers of Congress with the '
clean-cut patriotic appear- (
ances of these three gen- .
tlemen. There are some ,
who question the advisa- (
bility of spending such ,
vast sums of money for j
space exploration, but if ]
science is to explore and
unfold the mysteries of
the universe, then America ,
has no choice but to con- ;
tribute its part in this ex- .
ploration. This should be '
approached with the in- !
sistence that each dollar
spent will contribute to a 1
tangible return.

Gifts Increase
CHARLOTTE Financial
aid available to Duke Uni
versity students from the
Angler B. Duke Memorial,
Inc, has been increased
again this year because of
the higher cost of educa
tion.
The annual report of toe
corporation for 1968, re
leased December 23, 1988,
shows the Angier B. Duka
Memorial fellowship pro
vides a $4,000 grant, which
is S2OO more than last
year.
Angier B. Duke Mem
orial scholarships may
amount to $3,100, or SSOO
more, and grants-in-aid
may provide $1,600 for a
student, an increase of
$l5O. The amount provid
ed for these purposes in
the year which ended last
June 30 was $250,000.
The fellowship is award
ed annually to a graduate
student. Scholarships, also
given annually, are for un
dergraduates and provide
funds on a basis of toe fi
nancial needs of the indivi
dual students. Grants-in
aid are tuition grants to
needy and deserving stu
dents. The corporation
also makes loans to worthy
students who may apply
for assistance after com
pleting a semester’s work.
The Angier B. Duke
Memorial, Inc., was estab
lished in 1925 by the late
Benjamin N. Duke in mem
ory of his son, Angier B.
Duke. Its funds were de
rived primarily from gifts
of Mr. Duke and bequests
made by him and his wi
dow, Mrs. Sarah Pearson
(Angier) Duke. Approxi
mate market value of its
assets was $6,475,000 on
June 30.
In 43 years awards and
loans have amounted to_
more than $4 million and
have benefited students
from practically every state!
in this country and from!
many other countries. They!
were made with the aid ofl
recommendations of com-|
mittees established at Duke
University for this purpose.'
