FBLA Serves Area Farmers Need
“The Federal Land Bank
Association of Ahoskie
continues to serve the
sound, long-term credit
needs of farmers in this
area.” according to Gene R.
McCreary, president of the
association.
“Continued moder
nization and enlargement of
farms to become more ef
ficient to meet the demand
for farm products has
resulted in larger capital
investments and a greater
demand for borrowed
capital,” explained Mc-
Creary.
“In completing another
outstanding year in service
to farmers, the Ahoskie
association extended credit
in the amount of $10,600,000

the amount of $35,488,940 at

THE CHOWAN HERALD
Washington Report: 96th Congress Convenes
By Congressman
Walter B. Jones
As most of you know, the
96th Congress convened on
January 15,1979. Last week
concluded the third week of
the present session, and
most of this time has been
spent in nominating and
electing the various Com
mittees as well as amending
some of the House Rules
under which we legislate.
The 96th Congress has 77
new Members, 42 new
Democrats and 35 new
Republicans. Most of this
change occurred as a result
of retirement as well as
running for other offices,
such as Governor and
Senator. So, with that many
new members, through
necessity, it almost requires
a period of getting
acquainted. At this point in
time, over 50 per cent of the
Membership of the House
have served five years or
less.
Among other action last
week was the election of the
subcommittees of the House
Committee on Agriculture. I
hope of interest to the Dist
ric is the fact that I was
re-elected as Chairman of
the House Subcommittee on
Tobacco. Also, Con
gressman Charlie Rose
of North Carolina’s Seventh
District was elected
Chairman of the Sub
committee on Livestock and
Grain. This gives North
