Tar Heel Congressmen Will Be
Affected In Committee Changes
WASHINGTON North Carolina
legislators, when they return to
Washington next January, will
Scarcely recognize Congress as the
place in which they have served in
the past.
They will probably see three
tnembers of their delegation lose
patronage-laden committee chair
manships. Two of (he bereft chair
men, however, may find them
selves heading totally new com
mittees. The reason is the Lafollctto-Mon-roney
reorganialion hill, passed in
the last flurried days of an election-minded
Congress anxious lo
get home. The result will he the
biggest shuffling in Congressional
committee lineups in history.
The new law, slicing Senate
committees from X to 15 and
House committees from 48 to 1!.
caused probably Washington's big
gest surprise of the year when it '
won passage, despite tlx fact it
laid a heavy baud on coveted com
mittee chairmanships.
The effect of tin law apparently
will he to deprive Senator .losiah
W. Bailey of Ins chairmanship of
the powerful Senate Commerce
committee, which handles all rivers
and harbors and flood control
measures and which lie ha-, headed
for eight years, hut mac give him
another important chairmanship.
Rep. Graham A. Harden of New
Bern will lose chairmanship of the
House Education committee, but
may become chairman of a newly
established committee on House
administration
Fiep. Herbert C Homier of Wash
ington will return to find that the
House committee on hlcrlions of
President, Vice President, and
Representatives in Congress, of
which he is chairman, has been
wiped off the map

Bailey would be outranked on
the enlarged Interstate and For

Senator Alben W. Barkley if). Ky.t.
However, if Barkley declined to
permit chairmanship of a major
committee lo interfere with his
duties as Senate majority leader,
Bailey would win the chairman
ship.
Each Senator may serve on (wo
major committees. In addition (o
the two new ones already named,
Bailey would have the choice of
Finance and Civil Service.
Senator Clyde It. lloey could re

committee seals.

THANK YOU
for waiting for delivery of your
NEW CHEVROLET
We are doing our best to see that you
gef your new car as quickly as possible
We want to thank our customers and pr
spective customers for your friendly
patience while awaiting your new
Chevrolet.
We know it is a hardship to wait for
needed transportation; but we believe
you will understand that we, and
Chevrolet, are as eager to deliver cars as
you are to obtain them. Unfortunately,
production so far this year is far under
expectations. Chevrolet Motor Division
sums up the situation thus:
"Even though our rate of production
normally exceeds that of any other
manufacturer, we have been able to
build, up to July l,only 12.4 per cent
as many cars as we had built up to
that date in 1941. Production is still
far below normal, because of fre
quent shortages of essential mate
rials and parts. Strike after strike at the
plants of our suppliers has seriously
impeded our progress toward full
production, and the cumulative
effect severely hampers every manu
facturing and assembly plant. In
June we were able to build only
29.2 per cent as many cars as we
produced in the same month in
1941."
While production is restricted, so in
proportion are shipments of cars to us.
At production increases, we are assured
of getting our proportionate share of the
total and as quickly as cars are received,
we will speed deliveries to our customers.
