Section B Rep. Jones Reports From Washington The House approved two controversial appropriation bills last week. The first was the Labor-HEW and Related Agencies appropriations for 1973. You will recall that this same bill was vetoed by the President last month, his reason being that the amount involved was excessive. So this time the bill as approved was $935 million less than the bill previously vetoed. The total appropriation was in ex cess ol is 29 billion. In con nection with the first veto, the House gave a majority vote to override the Presi dential veto, but failed to at tain the two-thirds majority required by the Constitution to override a Presidential ve to. There is some speculation as to whether the Senate will agree with the House reduc tion and if so, even then there' could possibly be another Presidential veto. Os im portance to many small busi nessmen, the House approv ed an amendment which would exempt all businesses with 15 or less employees from the rigid requirements of the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970. Other House action saw the approval of the appropria tion for foreign aid by a vote Thomas J. Jordan 7 Slrulford Bead KDKNTOX, N.

Several amendments were offered to reduce this appropriation, all of which I supported, but with no suc cess. A breakdown of the total showed $1.5 billion in military assistance and relat ed economic aid; $1.2 Million in economic aid to develop ing countries; $450 million in foreign military credit sales; $Bl million for the Peace Corps; $4lB million for the Inter - American Development Bank, and $320 million for the International Develop ment Association. I continue to question the wisdom of this nation attempting to fi nance other nations without a more thorough accounting of how the money is spent, and if indeed it is serving the purpose for which foreign aid was originally intended. On final passage all members of the North Carolina delegation, Democrats and Republicans, except Congressman Preyer, voted against the bill, with Congressman Jonas absent. Also last week the House Agriculture Subcommittee continued its hearings on the Russian wheat deal. A most interesting witness was form er Undersecretary of Agri culture Clarence Palmby, who is now the vice president of the Continental Grain Com pany, having assumed this po sition on June 9. During his testimony he stated as fol lows: "During the noon and afternoon of July 2. I accom panied Mr. Ziv of Contincn- Purdue Introduces ‘Envoy’ to Industry A new concept of coopera tion between industry and education has been initiated between Hoosier industry and Purdue University’s School of Engineering. Ruddell Reed Jr. has been appointed Ball Brothers Pro fessor of Engineering at Purdue, whose job it will be to work closely with Indiana technical leaders to establish direetjine-of communica tions with the University. The position, created earlier this year by a gift from the Ball Foundation, Muncie, Ind., is believed to be the first of its kind in any major uni versity. The aim is to build a better engineering program and a healthier industrial cli mate. tal’s office in Paris to Alex andria, Virginia. Our guests; were Mr. Kalitenko and Mr. Gtoldobenko, two members of the Russian buying mission. I had never met Mr. Kaliten ko or Mr. Goldobenko until that day. In that Mr. Ziv, Continental’s representative, had never visited Washington before, he and the Soviets re quested me to give them a tour of historical spots of in terest in Washington, D. C. I repeat that I had never met these gentlemen before that day, and at no time did we mention the agricultural sit uation in the Soviet Union or the U. S-, nor the grain indus try in either country, nor any other official subject. I would hasten to state that a Sunday spent in this manner was not untypical of my activities during eight years with the U. S. Feed Grains Council and during three and one-half years as assistant secretary of agriculture for interna tional affairs in the JJ. S. government.” It certainly docs cause one to wonder what was the topic of conver sation!
