United States Inviting World To Birthday Party An all ? embrucing, global gueit lilt It being prepared fur the United Statu observance of iu 200th birthday. Invitatloni to visit America in 1976 are being sent to groups as broadly diversified as the peoples who comprise this Nation, the National Geographic Society says. As part of a project called "Open House U.S.A.," organizations across the country are urging their opposite numbers abroad to come and see them during the Bicentennial Year. The Invitations are going out from fraternal and service clubs, professional and historical societies, civic bodies, and international organizations to members of sister cities and affiliated groups abroad. The hosts offer to open their homes to their guests and invite them to observe and participate in the numerous festivals and commemorative programs planned by various towns, cities, and states. Open House U.S.A. was conceived by the Wally Byam Foundation, named for a manufacturer of travel trailers. Several years ago the foundation organized a program called Caravan America, to encourage foreign visitors to see wider areas of the United States. It provided funds, cars, and trailers to take families from Britain, France, West Germany, and Switzerland on cross ? country trips. The motor tours also included families of foreign diplomats stationed in Washington, D.C. From these activities came the idea for Open House U.S.A., which was adopted in July 1970 by the American Revolution Bicentennial Commission as part of the Government'i program for the observance. Ai the lilt of groups extending overseas invitations grows, other organizations navy pledged their support. The Recreational Venlcle Institute has offered to obtain 1,000 cimpers, trailers, and motor homes to be donated by firms for use by persons visiting the United States during 1976. The Society of American Travel Writers has agreed to turn its 1974 annual convention into a flying trip around the world, to deliver invitations to peoples in other lands to join in America's Bicentennial celebration. Open House U.S.A. has been chartered in the Nation's Capital as a non ? profit company to solicit funds from private foundations and other groups for partial travel grants. It also is organizing the mass of invitations and acceptance, and the related entertainment. "Open House U.S.A. should inspire beautification drives to get the United States ready for its birthday party," said Mrs. Carolyn Bennett Patterson, chairman of the Byam Foundation and an assistant 'editor of National Geographic, "It also will help correct the balance of payments in this Nation's travel account, since Americans spend more abroad than foreign tourists spend here. "But the program's greatest significance should be in the international goodwill we believe this effort will engender."

According to a state law passed by the legislature this session, beer and wine may be sold on Sunday between I p.m. and 2 a.m. However, cities and counties may prohibit the sale by local ordinance. The county commissioners met in a special session Aug 10 to pass an ordinance prohibiting the sale of beei or wine on Sunday. The city council has not yet considered the question. City manager John Gaddy said the first chance the council would have to take up the matter would probably be at a special meeting Monday which has been called to discuss the water problem with representatives from Moore Gardner Associates, the city engineering consultants The council does not have a quorum to do business this week. Gaddy said Councilmen Franklin Teal and Mayor John K. McNeill arc out of town and there is a vacancy on the council due to the death of J.D. McMilliaiv. Several local storekeepers sold beer in the city last Sunday. City police chief L.W. Stanton said that as tar as he knew now, Sunday beer sales were legal alter 1 p.m. He had received no complaints about beer sales, he said, but two merchants called to ask about the legality. County manager T.B. Lester said that according to what he had read, Sunday beer sales were not legal anywhere until after Oct. 1. This was the opinion given by the state attorney general, he said. The new state law allows sales of beer and wine each day between the hours of 7 a.m. to 1 a.m.. except during daylight saving time, when sales are allowed until 2 a.m. Beer or wine may be consumed on the premises of places having such a license until 1:30. or 2:30 EDT. On Sunday, beer and wines may be sold after 1 p.m. until the cloiing hour. However the law also gives local governments the right to regulate Sunday sales. "The governing bodies of all municipalities and counties have fjill power and authority to regulate and prohibit sales from I p.m. on Sunday until 7 a.m. on Monday." the law states. The county commissioners are given authority over all areas not Inside the corporate limits of a municipality, under the slate law. ?LENNON? Coiilinuctl I'roui I Rep.

To me, a contract that it entered into and signed can not be voided, even by the pretident and that is why I think that the freeze will be tested in court." "Of course, no one wants to do anything to interfere with the concept of a freeze," he said. Rep. Lennon commented on his vote against the public works bill that gave about SS million to North Carolina. "When the bill first was introduced, North Carolina had SI 1,689,000 but sixty days later the Department of Labor had cut our part to SS.000,000 and had Imposed population criteria to qualify money," he said. "I supported it on the representation that North Carolina would get Sll million and I voted against it when S6 million was taken from the state." Lennon was in Hoke County Tuesday as part of his visit in the Seventh District during the congressional recess. He met people at the court house in the morning and then attended a luncheon given by the Chamber of Commerce for Pentagon officials visiting the county. That afternoon, Lennon said he planned to go to Moore Memorial Hospital to visit city councilman J.D. McMillian. ?PENTAGON? Continued from page 1 community. "The high call of the military mission requires dedication." he said. 'The people we saw this morning (in the health programs) were dedicated. Rep. Lennon told the group that if more of the military could become involved in programs of the type here, that "we could change some of tlw things that people say about the military." He deplored the poor image of the armed forces that is sometimes portrayed, Lennon said. Lt. Gen. Hay thanked the Chamber of Commerce for the luncheon. The group left by helicopter at 1:45 to go to Anson County where they will see several other domestic action programs. Dr. McLucas said that the tour here was one of several taken by the domestic action council to inspect military projects. The health program here appears to be highly successful, he said.
