But Womble said he questioned why the new policy was suggested. "1 can't understand the resolution," he said. "The seed may have been planted in the public's mind that something was negative about the travel of the aldermen." Burke said that she, too, was bothered by the Finance Committee's resolution, but voted in favor of it. "We as aldermen have a right to at^_ tend functions that help our job as aldermen," she said in a telephone interview. 4tNo one has to put brakes on me. But she (Wood) may need brakes put on her." As for the resolution being prompted by the money advanced to three aldermen for the Washington trip, Burke said, 4i feel it was untimely to put that negative feeling into the minds of the people."

Aldermen Ernestine Wilson, Lynne Harpe and Robert Northington voted against the substitution, which was offered by Burke. The item was postponed from the Sept. 20 meeting when aldermen Burke and Womble voiced concern that minorities and women would be underrepresented on the Forsyth County Tourism Development Authority. The commission will oversee the spencing ofmoney collected from a new 2 percent tax on motel and hotel rooms. With the addition of Williams, the 10-member commission now has three women, two of whom are black. County Commissioner Mazie Woodruff, also black, and Alderman Harpe are the others. Northington, who spoke in favor of approving the mayor's original list of nominees at the Sept. 20 meeting, voted against the amended slate. ue Laws From Page A1 I and to their faith will still attend," he says. Agreeing with Gill, the Rev. Warnie C. Hay, pastor of Galilee Baptist Church, says he understands that existing blue laws may work ahardship on some businesses. Nevertheless, he says, some restrictions should be in force, because "to turn people loose completely is not good. We have enough problems." The present law is a good one, says Hay, and, "if for no other reason, we need Sunday to break the week and (to^rest." But whether Chapter 22 of the City Code is removed or not, Hay expresses doubt that the church will be adversely affected.
