Jones proved by the Senate coh- ] tains some controversial sec tions which brought about some opposition. One provi sion provides for pre-trial detention—up to 60 days—of criminal defendants whom a court finds likely .to comity further crimes if they were released on bail pending trial. And opposition also to a provision authorizing police to enter without warning if announcing their presence might endanger them, lead to destruction of evidence, or result in a suspect’s escape— this was known as the “no knock” provis.tm. Also, it increases the length of sen tences for habitual, profes sional criminals. During the week the House approved the HEW-Labor Ap propriation Bill providing for SIB.B billion. The bill as ap proved contains appropria tions for the Labor Depart ment as well as other related agencies. The total figure is $93 million .more than the ad ministration had requested. All North Carolina members voted favorably on final pas sage. 1 I By a vote of 388 to 3. the House agreed to a conference . reoort to extend the federal- ‘ stote - unemployment compen sation program. Under ex isting federal law, unemploy ment tax applies to employ : ers who employ four or more. individuals for a certain I period of time. It further ■ extends the coverage to cer tain public employees, such jas institutions of higher edu ca.t:on in an instructional, re- . search or principal adminis trative capacity. An amend- J ment was offered to extend unemployment compensation 1 to agricultural laborers. Ibis was defeated by a vote of , 119 to 170. On this motion, ' »tain all members of the N'rth Carolina delegation vot- . ed no. The House Committee on Agriculture after several months consideration, report- 1 ed out a farm bill. Basically, it is the one presented by the . administration and contains little of the language provid- i ed in the coalition bill which ! THE CHOWAN HERALD, EDENTON, NORTH CAROLINA, THURSDAY, JULY M, 197$ I co-sponsored many months ago. An impasse had devel oped within the committee, and it appeared that at one time there would be no farm legislation in this Congress. Recalling the disastrous ef fects to the fanners of this nation during the period when there were no price supports or controls, I came to the conclusion that even though the farm bill as ap proved is not one with which I agree completely, it is bet ter than no farm bill at all.
