Ifiv, tnc CO systein ftJa^belng rcornp Legislature. pursuant to Ar ticle IV of the Constitution of North Carolina as amended adopted In the general election In November ,1963. (This amen dment requires that the new court system must be in full force and effect not later than Jamurr 1. ?7l). On the local level we are es pecially Interested tat the Ms- I trlct Court and die Magistrate. The District Court will not only take the place ofsuchfun iliar courts as Recorders and County Courts, but it will also take some of the load off die Superior Courts. _ The Magistrate wur exercise rainy of the same functions that J a Pees now have, with some notable exceptions. First of alt the new Magistrate will be an officer of the district court, and under the close direct supervision of the district court judge. Second, his authority in criminal matters is severely curtailed, limited chiefly to ac cepting guilty pleas in minor misdemeanor cases. However, he may issue arrest warrants valid throughout the State and search warrants valid in his comity. The magistrate will have greater authority in cer tain civil matters than the old justice of the peace. He will be assigned, by the chief dis trict judge smdl claims actions up to $300 and certain summary proceedings in ejectment and claim and delivery action. One of the most import wit changes in regard to the new magistrate Is that his compen sation is b y regular salary rather than fees. The magis trates, of which Duplin County is entitled to at least 6 and not more than 8, will be appointed by the resident Judge of the Superior Court. His salary will probably range from $1,200 to . $6,000, depending on the amount of time he will ne expected to devote to the performance of his duties. His term will be for two years. The District Court Judges in tiiis district are; Harvey Boney, Jacksonville; Russel J. Lanier, Beulsvllie; Paul M. Crumpler, Clinton; and Walter P. Hen derson , Trenton. The Coun will sit in the County Seat of each county, with the Judges ???? MSiiuguy i pros :utoi wt Syl vester, Jacksonville, Motif* Carolina, and an secutor who la Kenneth Turner. Rose Hill.

V error is found, the case will be sent back to the District Court for re-trlal, not the Superior Co t iNTON - Anot victory ii th citizen's bi for privacy was cow recent ly when the CM) Service Corn Issued ev. rule to Federal employees and V pllcants for Federal employ ment. The rules will provide reasonable tests to protect ln vkiuai privacy when govern ment agencies Investigate people who apply for Federal lbs or promotions. There have been no such government-wide standards before. Congress has received many reports of abuses of techniques aid de s used in Investigating In dividuals. Lie detector tests will be limited, although not sufficient ly In my opinion, since s num ber of agencies are not cover ed. dgencies who are covered, however, must obtain advwice annual permission to use them, and must adhere to certain re strictions. The Commission also issued to ail agenclea new fntnimum si a/idards to control the scope and coverage of so-called full field investigations inducing the selection, training, and su pervision of investigators. These new regulations are aimed at some of the violations of privacy and Individual rights which have been reported to me and to the Constitutional Rights Subcommittee, of which I am Chairmm. It was to prevent unreasonable Federal coercion and privacy invasion that I Introduced the Federal Employees Privacy Bill and fought for its passage to pro tect the right to privacy. Al though the bill had fifty-fire co-sponsors and was passed by die Senate last year by a vote of 79-4, it died to a Ho use Subcommittee with the ad journment of this Congress. The new Civil Service Com mission change is one of a ser ies of quiet victories over gov ernmental tyranny since the battle began for die passage of die privacy measure.
