Jimmy Green made the following remarks at the Opening Session of the 135th N. C. Senate January 12: “Just over two months ago we witnessed the sight of North Carolinians exercising their most precious right, and indeed, their heaviest respon sibility : that of voting. We had the privilege of watching democracy in action. We had the privilege of watching millions of our fellow citizens walk right up to the polling place, take their ballot, and go into a private booth to cast it. By that act, each man and woman chose who would run their government. By that act, they also chose the course of their government. And, by this seemingly simple act, our fellow North Carolinians chose some part of their destiny, collectively speaking. “As a result of that election of November, 1982, we are gathered here to represent the nearly six million citizens of this great State. They can not be here in person, and so we are entrusted to govern in their place. Ours is a sacred trust, and we, individually and together must live up to that trust which has been placed in our hands. “We must do the very best for all North Carolinians, voters and non-voters, Democrats and Republicans, young and old, male and female, black, white or Indian. “This session ahead will not be an easy one. I have been coming to Raleigh since 1961, and there is no such thing as an easy session, but I do believe that the 135th may prove to be more difficult thar. most. The single most important issue will be money...the lack of it, that is. And this single issue will col or and influehce every other issue that we take up here. “It will be the job of this Legislature to look carefully at the means of raising money and the ways of spending it. I certainly do not need to re mind any of you that North Carolina is constitutionally mandated to balance its budget. We can not let money going out exceed money com ing in; it is that simple. Not only is it against sound fiscal priciples; in the State of North Carolina, it is against the law. “But, in our efforts to cut and trim and reduce and remove, we can not let our minds smother our hearts. There are many in North Carolina who depend on those vital services that the State provides, and we can not in good conscience forget them. There is room in any budget, no matter how austere, for compassion, and we must make sure that there is ample room in our budget for those who can not help themselves. “They may or may not be voters, but they are citizens, and they are very definitely people, and we can not forget them, nor can we ignore their very real needs. “Both singly and together, we of the General Assembly must exercise all the creativi ty within us to find new ways of approaching the questions that are asked of us. We must look at every program and every law with new eyes. “We do not want to repair any wagons that ‘ain’t broke,’ but we need to make sure that every wagon we have is capable of carrying us all where we need to go. “We need to apply new standards of accountability. We need to be fiscal stewards THE CHOWAN HERALD of the people’s money, while at the same time being nourishers of the people’s hopes and dreams and desires for themselves, their ch ldren and their State. “As elected representatives to the 135th General Assembly, we need to make sure that what I like to think, of as that good North Carolina quality of life is not diminish ed in any way, shape, or form for any of our people...be they young, old, poor, or not. North Carolina has built a great deal, and she has achieved a great deal, and it is up to us to make sure that we pass on these achievements to those who follow. “I call upon each and every one of you to work with me to make this, the 135th Session of the General Assembly, the very best example of govern ment of the people, by the peo ple, and for the people. “Because the work of the General Assembly has become far more complex in recent years, I have long felt a need for fewer committees, expanded opportunities for leadership, and much better coordination of the overall work of all committees. “The appointments I an nounce today will streamline both the number of commit tees that I have assigned, and the number of Senators assigned to each committee. “I have established a number of umbrella commit tees with structures similar to that of the Appropriations Committee. Also, I have given five of the committees with the heaviest workloads... Base Budget, Finance, Local Government and Regional Af fairs, State Government, and Ways and Means...joint chairmenships. “We have many returning members as well as several veteran House members now elected to the Senate, and these new assignments will, I firmly believe, expand the op portunites for leadership, and therefore, make the best and most appropriate use of the many talents of the fifty men and women who make up the membership of the 135th North Carolina Senate. “One of the most important appointments I am making today is that of assigning Sen. Kenneth Royall to each of the committees that 1 name. As such, he will be a voting member of each committee and will be working closely with the chairmen of all com mittees to coordinate the flow of legislation. “Sen. Royall and I have discussd such a role for him during this Session, and he is in complete agreement with this decision. I am tremen dously pleased that he has agreed to undertake such a demanding task in addition to his duties as Senate Majority Leader. “These innovations will create a more efficient and better organized Senate, which will, in turn, be best able to deal with the issues before it. “I could say many good things about each of you, but I just give thanks that you are participants in what I con sider one of the moat impor tant Sessions of the North Carolina General Assembly in many years. “Thank you.“ Fishing Institute Just a few short weeks re main to register for the Bass Fishing Institute (BFI) to be held at the University of North Carolina, Greensboro, during the week-end of February 5 and 6,1963. BFI, a product of Indiana State University, is recognized as the nation’s top angler education program. It’s not just another clinic or seminar but a comprehensive course of instruction utilizing the talents of America’s foremost professional fishermen as instructors. The institute scheduling provides a perfect opportuni ty for the sportsman, and other family members, to relieve those mid-winter ten sions by going to school for two short days-two days that could mean so much to their angling success for the rest of their lives. Although dubbed “Bass Fishing Institute” the course of instruction will make better anglers of all who attend no matter what their favorite species. Young or old, novice or experienced, there’s something to benefit everyone. Women and youth receive a little extra attention as there are special classes and activities for each throughout the two-day program. Best of all, it’s affordable. The adult registration fee covering the entire program is S4O. BFI encourages fami ly participation by permitting a regular paying adult to register any youth (aged 10-15) free. In addition, the spouse of a regular paying adult may enroll for half the fee (S2O), qualifying for an ad ditional free registration of a youngster. A family of four (4) can enjoy the entire week end at the low cost jf 100. The availability of on-site registration cannot be guaranteed so register as soon as possible by contacting the Office of Continuing Education, University of North Carolina, Greensboro, N.C. 27412 or phone (919) 379-5414. Livestock Marketing MIAMI, FLA.-A North Carolina purebred producer, assisted by N.C. Department of Agriculture livestock marketing specialists, has sold 10 Yorkshires to a Guatemalan swine operation. The 10 hogs —two breeding age boars (seven months old), two younger boars (three months), and six 4-months old gilts of different bloodlines will be used in outcrosses on swine imported from North Carolina about five years ago. Logan Creek Farms, located near Yadkinville, pro duced the swine sold Guatemala. The last sale of swine to Guatemala was made approximately five years ago. “Because of the reputation of our North Carolina purebred breeders, our NCDA livestock marketing section and our animal health pro gram,” says Agriculture Commissioner Jim Graham, “the Guatemalan producer bought the Yorkshires sight unseen. The sale was made through telephone conversa tions that began in early December.” States livestock marketing specialist Bruce Shankle who facilitated the sale, “North Carolina purebred hog pro ducers sold over 300 bead to South American and Latin American countries in 1982. We will continue to promote these sales for our producers and appreciate the support of Commissioner Graham in these efforts. I’d also like to thank Bill Martin Livestock for assistance in transporta tion of these bogs to Miami In ternational Airport, and our state and federal animal health divisiona for their assistance on blood testing and preparation of export health certificates.” The Yorkshires were slip ped air freight to Guatemala.
