Section C Rep. Walter B. Jones Reports Last week for the first time in my political career I felt compelled to vote “present” on a legislative matter. The bill involved regulatory action by the Congress between banks and Savings and Loans Associations. Since I am presently a Director of a large Savings and Loan Association, I felt it proper to abstain from voting either yes or no, thereby eliminating any possible conflict of interest which hiight have existed. On May 10, the House in an unprecedented action, amended an appropriation bill to provide that no money contained therein could be spent on land, or in the air, or off the shores of Cambodia. Several times in the past, the House has failed to take a positive position on its opposition to the fighting in Southeast Asia. The margin by which this mandate was approved was rather surprising, for it carried 219 to 188. The question concerned the transfer of $430 million of Defense funds within the De partment. The opposition was based on the fact that it was believed that these transferred BEDDING PLANTS GOOD QUALITY, MANY VARIETIES GOOD SERVICE LEARY PUNT FARM ROUTE 1, EDENTON, HHOW* >fl^* y 1 TIX-W SMfE WAS 20.19 11 NOW *18 95 '| GUTTERING INCLUDES: WHITE ALUMINUM 20’ OFS” GUTTER 10’ OF DOWNSPOUTS 1 INSIDE MITRE 1 OUTSIDE MITRE 3SUP JOINT CONNECTORS 2 END CAPS 1 END PIECE (with outlet) 2 ELBOWS 15 STRAP HANGERS jjfc r ; CLINCHER BANDS I FOREMAN'S I MltTlff | FfHlFtf MIIE-1 muwnw |MNUMitupnnKiTTYHAWK| I N.

So, the first motion was to refuse to permit the transfer of the funds to the end that they would have to be spent for the purpose for which they were originally appropriated. The second motion which carried by an even greater margin, 224 to 172, was the one which provided that no monies could be spent for land, air, or off the shores of Cambodia. The fact which troubles many of us is that this Administration is making all sorts of concilliatory gestures to both Russia and Red China. This includes, of course, generous low interest,, long term credit to Russia in order that they might purchase our grain and other food stuffs. So, if we are attempting to compromise our position with these two large Communist nations, it hardly seems logical that we should be fighting communism in Cambodia. In other words, it puts this nation in the position of saying there are “good communists and bad communists.” This office shares the concern of many regarding the threatened oil shortage, and more particularly, as it might adversely affect the tobaccc curing during the coming montift. In an effort to be of assistance, the Congress has approved legislation which permits the President to allocate quotas to different sections of the country to meet agricultural, medical, and public needs. So, on May 10, the U.S. Department of Treasury announced a voluntary compliance plan with a promise that if this fails, more stringent measures will be taken by the Administration. Basically, it provides that each refiner, marketer, jobber, and distributor will agree to make available in each state to each of its customers, the same percentage of its total supply of crude oil and products that it provided during each quarter of a base period. The base period is the last quarter of 1971 and the first three quarters of 1972. Kaow Your Social Secwity By DONALD S. MORRIS Field Representative Most' area farmers are familiar, with the farmer’s option on figuring their self employment income for social security purposes. Briefly if permits a farmer who does not clear S4OO from his farming operation to report 2-3rds of his gross income up to a maximum of SI6OO. This method of computing self-employment income was limited to farmers only. The 1972 social security amendments have changed this and it will be available to all self employed people for taxable years beginning after 1972. For non-farm self employed people there • are some restrictions in using the option. First, you must have had at least S4OO net income from self employment in two of the three years immediately preceeding the use of the option. Second, it can only be used five times.
