Page 6-B From The Carolina Review Clean Sweep.. The U. S. Justice Department made a clean sweep in its findings on North Carolina’s redistricting plans sub mitted last year. All three of the N. C. General Assem bly’s plans for redistricting were turned down, including the state house plan which was rejected last week. The state senate and congressional plans were vetoed earlier. So, after one year, three legislative sessions, an untold number of committee meetings, and more than just a few informal lawmaker “get-togethers,” the process for reap portionment of North Carolina’s senate and house bodies and the realignment for congressional districts is back on the drawing board. Fortunately, the year has not really been wasted and the lawmakers don’t have to start from “scratch” when they meet next. The latest estimates for that “next” session (the date changes weekly) seems to be February 9th. The legislators at least know some (dans that won’t work. The legislators too have had time to ponder the possi bilities of going to court over the Justice Department rejections. Possibilities apparently not attractive to the majority of them at this time-especially in the Senate. The elapsed time and consequently, conflicting election dates in the near future, also make a court fight unattractive. The legislators now will be forced to seriously consider the future of a state con stitutional ban on crossing county lines in drawing up the voting districts. Certainly, after a year and so much publicity, the legislators are aware of the voter’s dismay at their inability to solve the problem. Special sessions in Raleigh cost a lot of tax payer money. And finally, the legislators almost have to be somewhat more knowledgeable about “J# You Want to “Ptinl... that's Ifoux Business, But tty You 4jam -0 Vxinliny Problem, U/t IVant to -Yelp. ” ALCOHOLICS ANONYMOUS AND AL-ANON Meet Monday Nights At 8 P.M.

A whole bunch of than went to Washington last week to sit down with the bunch that has been rejecting the plans-to find out more stuff. News Quis...Name one issue that has beat bouncing around Raleigh legislative halls and judicial chambers longer than PCB. If you said HEW vs. UNC, then you’re wrong, cause that problem has ostensibly been settled - unless Ted Kennedy gets elected president some day. The most appropriate answer would seem to be the ongoing battle over state licensing of church affiliated day care centers. The controversy has been underway since North Carolina’s mandatory licensing law took effect in 1972. The issue was a real one in the 1976 gubernatorial race, but not a hot issue until about a year later when a large number of Christian day-care centers organized and decided to test the validity of the law. The law sets minimum standards for sanitation, health, safety, size, nutrition and other aspects of day-care operation. Fundamentalist Christian day-care spokesmen have always maintained their chief argument isn’t over the current minimum standards. Their objection is the apparent subjection of their ministry to govern ment control. That subjection, ac cording to courtroom testimony in Raleigh last week, is a violation of the supposed constitutional mandate for separation of church and state. Some people think laws like North Carolina’s licensing requirement back in 1972 are in large part responsible for fueling the fundamentalist Christian movement in politics so apparent today. Would’t it be ironic if government tampering with a few isolated fun damentalist groups 10 years ago resulted in groups like Moral Majority turning the tables. Church messing with state instead of state messing with church. CM Evaluation The federal Office of Coastal Zone Management is now conducting the an nual evaluation of the North Carolina Coastal Management program. A public meeting was held to secure comments from interested citizens and local governments on Tuesday. The purpose of this annual evaluation is to assess how North Carolina’s coastal program is contributing to improvements in national coastal management concerns and whether the state program is adhering to its federally approved program and budget.
