Senator Ervin Looking To Congress Convening Jan. 3 WASHINGTON ? As the year draws to a close, I have been re- J taxing a few days prior to return- ; ing to the Second Session of the ! 84th- Congress which convenes at ' Noon on Tuesday, January 3. 1956. BACK TO LEGISLATION The First Session of the 84th 1 Congress adjourned last August, r Since then, I have spent most of t the time in North Carolina. Dur- ( ing the recess I have made talks i in 34 counties, visited in a number ] of others, and have attended to the < duties of my office from Morgan- < ton. While the schedule was stren- t uous, it was pleasant. I am not ; ( anxiously looking forward to the heated session that most certain- * ly awaits the Congress. The legis- s lative function is the primary re- t responsibility of representing the f Fine Gifts" hrough the elected representa ives of the people that their voice s felt in formulating national pol cy. The guiding force of our orm of government is the fact hat it derives all its powers di 'eetly or indirectly from the great jody of the people, and is ad ninistered by persons holding heir offices during the pleasure )f the people electing them. This ?esponsibility is representing the jeople is a challenging task. In )ur democracy, a representative lemocracy, the people govern hemselves, but they do so by en rusting the entire administration >f "the government to the repre sentatives whom they choose for hat purpose. Events of recent weeks have a Permits Required For Cutting Trees On Highway Lines In an effort to stop the unlawful cutting of trees and shrubs on the highway right of way by outdoor advertising companies. Highway Chairman A. H. Graham recently wrote to all the outdoor advertis ers reminding them of the State's statute prohibiting cutting. The statute provides that no tree or shrub on any State road or State highway right of way ? other than streets not maintained by the Highway Commission in cities and towns?shall be trimmed or removed without a written per mit from the Highway Commission. A year ago, in December, 1954, Graham wrote the outdoor adver tisers asking for their voluntary compliance with the law regarding roadside cutting. In the eleven months since, he reported, "there have been fre quent instances of cutting or trim ming of trees or shrubs on highway right of way?opening views to commercial advertising signs ? without permission from the High way Commisson." In addition, there have been few requests for cutting permission. In one instance, after a request was made and was approved by the Highway Commis sion for cutting six specific trees, eleven trees (five more than the approved six) were removed and three other trees were trimmed. In his latest letter to the outdoor advertisers, Graham attached a list of the Commission's landscape supervisors in the fourteen High way Divisions giving the addresses of the supervisors and their areas of supervision. Effective immediately, he wrote, "permission for cutting or trim ming of trees or shrubs on high way right of way must be obtained from the landscape supervisor for the Division involved." From now on, any permissible cutting or trim ming must be done in the presence of a landscape supervisor or his representative. Anyone who cuts or trims trees without permission on the highway right of way will be subject to prosecution, he added.

We should not over look the cold facts that these are grave questions. We cannot be wrong this time.

(Mountaineer Photo). Senator Scott Fails To Find Country Ham In Iowa ; By Bill Whitley HAM. Of all places in the world, you'd think ? for sure ? that country ham and grits would be a standard meal in the state of Iowa. After all, Iowa is known the world over as the hub of the corn and hog farming country. In fact, if recollection is correct, some Rus sians recently traveled half way around the world to see how they raise such tall corn and big hogs in the state of Iowa. Nonetheless, a certain distin guished gentleman who has just returned from a visit in Iowa brings the sad news that grits and country ham were no where to be found. SURPRISED. Senator W. Kerr Scott, chatting about his recent ^ visit to the corn state, said: "I was all primed up for a real g breakfast of country ham and eggs and grits. I told the waitress I'd like my eggs fried hard. She ? looked at me sorta funny, and ask- ' ed we what I meant by grits. Then v I looked at her for a minute. "I found that she had never s heard of grits before and had just s a little bit of vague knowledge a- I bout country ham." c When the Squire of Haw River J finally got his breakfast, it turn- 1 ed out to be pressed ham and a fried egg. INFORMATION. The Senator j was somewhat taken aback by the f fact that Iowa didn't make it a v oint to promote hog and corn >roducts, so he decided to do a ittle scouting around and find out bout some other well-known lorth Carolina dishes. He asked about hush-puppies, nd folks just looked at him ilankly. It was the same routine vhen he asked about corn-pone nd corn bread. But what finally topped it all iff was the fact that he didn't run nto anybody who valued the ?irtues of good barbecue. The Squire himself wouldn't ay so, but it is reliably under itood that he refuaed to baffle the owa folks further by asking any juestions about chittlins. (Or, if 'ou prefer to go formal?chitter ings).
