TAB HEEL Pec^Ie & Issues By Cliff Blue TEN TEAKS AGO — Ten yean ago Kerr Scott was in the Gover nor’s mansion and just through with his tint session of the Gen eral Assembly. Many people con sidered Scott unorthodox and sometimes reckless. But he was a man who had a program and knew how to get things done al though he made many enemies through his outspoken statements and direct way of meeting issues. One timt a group of Mintgomery County people were up to see him and he reminded them that their representative, J. P. “Chalker” Wallace,, was not going along well with his program. The delegation informed “Chalker” so he went in to see Governor Scott about it. “Chalker” told Governor Scott that he was voting for about 90 per cent of the Governor’s pro gram, most everything except the $200,000,000 rural road bond is sue. Governor Scott told Wallace that “the bond issue is my pro gram” and that it mattered more than all the other measures he had supported. Ten years ago the Squire of Haw River was criticizing the Chamber of Commerce and the Civic Clubs, saying that when it came to doing “little peanut things” for the farmer they were all right, but that “they’re not worth a damn when it comes to doing something really worthwhile for the country people.” Many people thought the tobacco-chaw ing Governor was ruining himself with the people, but he went right on to winning the nomination and election to the United States Sen ate a couple of years after he gave up the Governor’s office. ASHLEY MURPHY — Tew peo ple in the House of Representa tives can analyze a person in a more comical and down to earth way than Rep.

Twisting is the operation where two or more threads are twisted together and put on one bobbin. Mrs. Padgett’s overseer is James Teague. ant Agricultural Committee. Ash ley told a group of friends a few days* ago about a man in his home community who made his acquaint ance with the new minister in the community. The man was unaccus tomed to praying in public, but since he was one of the few men who the new minister had met, he was called upon to lead in prayer, as he impressed the new parson as right much of a church man. Ashley says that the man got started praying, prayed for If You Like Years of Typewriter Service Take a look at our display of New Smith - Corona Portable Typewrit^is We are offering four models in attractive colors,, at prices considerably below the manufacturer’s list prices.

The News-Jourial most everybody and was unable to bring it to a close, but finally con cluded by saying, not “Amen.” as most people do, but signed off saying, “Yours truly, We have omitted the man’s name, although Ashley says he can prove the story by a hundred people. JACK KENNEDY — U. S. Sen ator John F. Kennedy sends per sonal letters to the delegates to the 1956 Democratic National Convention as often as possible, figuring that a goodly number may be delegates to the 1960 Con vention to be held in Los Angeles. He writes the people about differ ent issues, a recent one being a- bout his “Kennedy-Ervin” labor bill. Of course, the young Senator has unlimited wealth and re sources to carry on his letter writing campaign and we suspect that he never sees the letters. LEGISLATIVE VO’HNG ^ The old saying is that the best way for a politician to insure his re-elec tion as a legislator is to vote for i all appropriations and against all taxes. Well, it looked like quite a bit of this was going on in Ra leigh during the past several days. Some of the leaders in the fight for greater school teachers’ pay voted against most every revenue measure brought to a vote. This type representation may win elec tions back home, but it doesn’t help a man with many of those who are familiar with legislative responsibility and what’s going on. CONSISTENCY — Rep. J. K. Doughton says that when he came to the General Assembly back in 1949 that he intended to try and be consistent on issues and in his voting but that it was not long be fore he gave up the idea of trying to be consistent. Who was it who said: “Consistency, thou are a jewel!” BACKTRACKING — ’the wet forces in the House did some quick back-tracking last week. On ’Thursday the PAG Committee gave a favorable report to a bill which would have permitted any municipality with a population of 2,000 or more to vote to establish liquor stores. When the rumor spread that an emendment had been prepared to tack on a state wide referendum to the bill. Rep. Marcallus Buchan o f Jackson County make a motion to send the bill back to committee where it is expected to die. The “wet” lobby ists have been less in evidence a- round this session of the General Assembly than during any session during the past dozen years. LARKINS — Down in Jones County a few days ago John Lar kins’ friends gave him a big birth day party, the occasion being his 50th birthday with “Larkins for Governor” being the theme of the meeting. A county-wide committee headed by Rudolph Pelletier of Maysville sponsored the supper honoring the man who for some time has been running hard, un officially, for the Democratic no mination for Governor. A good many people are giving his candi dacy more serious consideration than they did some months ago. 0 Farm families suffered 7,500 fewer accidental deaths in 1957 than in 1947.
