ing! Anderson Amendment
I had to return to vote on the
Anderson Amendment to join
Alaska for consideration along
with Hawaii for Statehood. I voted
for this measure. It passed the
Senate by a close vote, 46-43.
Food For Needy
I joined with Senator Kerr of
Oklahoma in the co-sponsorship
of Senate Bill 3Q92 to provide
supplementary benefits for re
cipients of public assistance un
der Social Security Act programs
through the issuance of certifi
cates to be used in the acquisi
tion of surplus agricultural food
products.
Purpose Of Bill
S. 3092 has two purposes. The
first is to provide supplemental
benefits for individuals receiving
assistance under the programs of
old-ai;e assistance, aid to depend
ent children, aid to the blind, and
aid to the permanently and to
tally disabled, as provided for in
Titles I, IV, X and XVI of the
Social Security Act. The second
is to provide for increased do
mestic consumption of surplus ag
ricultural food products by es
tablishing a program whereby the
monthly benefit payments of such
individuals will be supplemented
by the issunnce of $10.00 in certi
ficates which may be transferred
to rail food products dealers in
exchange for Surplus agricultural
food products at prevailing mar
ket prices. This impressed me so
much as being a practical, sensi
ble and Immune approach that
I had to stand on my feet in the
Senate and say something about it.
It touches the economic needs of
our people and the need to stabi
lize farm prices.
Why This Bill?
This extra monthly $10.00 to
the individuals I have already
mentioned will be ,a God-send to
them. Today we have a strange
condition in our country. Many

of our citizens do not have
enough food to eat. Yet there Is
a surplus of food which threatens
to drive farm prices lower and
undermine our whole economy.
The cost of living Is high. This
bill, if passed, would help melt
away the government surpluses of
food by seeing to it that it gets
into the hands of needy and de
serving people of our country. It
would prevent this food from be
ing shipped to Russia, or other
places, as some have suggested.
We have the surplus of food. The
Federal government already owns
it. If additional aid is to be given
to people on needy roles, then it
seems practical to do it this way.
It will serve a human need and it
will help to keep our farm prices
North Carolina can make a liv
ing. I am for helping folks who
are in need and doing away with
aid to people who are able to
work and earn a living but are
too lazy to do it.
History
We had a letter from States
ville this week which contained
an interesting fact. It said that
Iredell County touched more
counties than any other county
in the United States. It got me to
thinking about the counties that
Iredell adjoins, so I checked the
big North Carolina map in the
office. They are Rowan, Cabar
rus, Mecklenburg, Lincoln, Ca
tawba, Alexander, Wilkes, Yad
kin and Davie nine counties!
That must be the record. If any
body knows differently, I'd like
to hear about it.
This-And-That
It was my pleasure to insert
Dr. C. C. Crittenden's splendid
article about the Battle of Moore's
Creek Bridge in the Congressional
Record this week. It was the first
article I have inserted, so I was
particularly pleased about it be
cause so many of us are anxious
to see Moore's Creek National
Military Park retained by the Na
tional Park Service and its im
portance stressed to the world . . .
We got a new batch of gallery
passes to the Senate. The rules
formerly permitted the name of
Senators to be printed on the
card. Now each card has to be
signed by the Senator issuing it,
including the name of the person
to whom it is issued and the date.
This all came about as a result
of the tragic shooting in the House
recently. . .Speaking of the trag
edy in the House, I have been
told about one of the House pages
who was scared into flight when
the pistols started shooting. He
ran into one of the telephone
booths in the cloak room just off
the floor. A Congressman came
running after him and tried to
dash into the booth, but the page
forgot about courtesy and every
thing else and he told the Con
gressman to go find his own
booth "this one is mine!". . .There
are 200,000 organizations in the
country, so I read this week, that
are interested in having their
Senators do something for them.
All I can say is that I certainly
trust they don't decide to come
to Washington at the same time!
The growth of North Carolina's
livestock industry represents one
of the most important changes in
the history of southern agriculture.
