"vrar 25 speak before amendment committee Today ActY.Uei by Tim PIttman Staff Vriter RALEIGH Opponents of the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA) came to last Tuesday's public hearing ten busloads strong with "Stop ERA" signs on their jackets preaching, pleading and petitioning for the defeat of the ERA. Over 600 anti-ERA spectators jammed into the Legislative Building auditorium where the House Constitutional Amendments Committee heard 28 speakers, mostly women, call the ERA everything from a communist threat to a denial of religious freedom. The committee must pass ERA before it can be brought to a vote in the House. . The public hearing lasted two hours, an hour longer than the pro-ERA forces were allowed to speak the previous week. , In order to become a constitutional amendment, 38 states must ratify the ERA by March 1979. Thus far, 34 states have approved it. North Carolina is considered a vital state in the ultimate ratification or defeat of the amendment. Dorothy Slade of Reidsville, state chairman of the Stop-ER A movement, said the ERA did not have the popular support to achieve ratification in North Carolina, but added, "If it is ratified, we'll be back next session asking you to rescind it." ' Slade and Mrs. John L. Matthews of Rocky Mount presented committee chairman Hartwell Campbell, D-Wilson, with two stacks of petitions containing, according to the women, 54,000 signatures of women opposed tothe ERA. Slade said the signatures proved the "women back home don't want ERA." Patricia Williams, publicity director of the Wilson County Speedway and a professional author, called the ERA a dangerous amendment, and said to the committee, "you are toying with the idea of passing a law that would take away your (the Legislature's) handling of our lives and put it in the hands of the Supreme Court." "And we all know what the Supreme Court can do," Williams added. Rocky Mount lawyer Don Evans said, "ERA will turn every legal difference between men and women into a Supreme Court case and there are no legal precedents for courts to use as guidelines." Evans urged the legislators to use common sense and fairness and to defeat the Equal Rights Amendment. "It is inconceivable to me that an amendment which is so harmful to women could be ratified in North Carolina," he said. Rev. James C. Loy, pastor of the Raleigh Macedonia United Methodist Church, said, "the underbelly of this Equal Rights Amendment is a radical, immoral, social philosophy. In the light of social morality, it is our social obligation not to ratify ERA." In closing, Loy said, "We want no commercial womanhood and no institutionalized family life." Loy and other ministers said the amendment could cripple churches if they refused to marry two men or two women According to Loy, the federal government could remove the tax-exempt status of churches if a minister refused to many two individuals of the same sex. Phyllis Schlafly, national chairman of the Stop ERA movement, met with her North Carolina ERA opponents earlier in the week. During her visit to North Carolina, Schlafly predicted the Legislature would defeat the ERA. "American women don't want ERA," Schlafly said in a recent television interview. "It will take away rights we already have." She cited military obligations, loss of credit for unemployed women, loss of women's special labor laws and the possibility of churches losing their tax-exempt status. Campbell said his committee would examine all the legal implications of the amendment before voting on it. The committee will meet with former U.S. Sen. Sam Ervin this week. Ervin was a major opponent of ERA in Congress. & 1 Young Union. Club 730 tenisN, 217 Yoga mtuao I tonight.
