Democrats To Study State Organization I
RALEIGH - Gov. Robert W.
Scott last Friday named a 60
member Study Commission to
analyze the N. C. Democratic
Party structure and make
recommendations for updating
the Plan of Organization.
Wilson,Attorney James
Hunt, former State YDC
President who currently serves
I
as assistant to the state party
chairman, was named general
chairman of the commission.
"Serving with him" Scott
said, "will be former governors
and former chairmen of the
party, lawyers and lawmakers,
educators and students, labor
leaders and businessmen,
young Democrats and old
Democrat*, black Democrat*
and white Democrat* and
business women and
housewives.
"In brief, those chosen come
bom all walks of life and
represent a number of political
philosophies. This is how it
should be, for the proposed
Study Commission's work
surely will be doomed if all the
people are not represented in
such an important
undertaking."
Scott pointed out the group
was large because he wanted to
insure a broad base of
representation at each of four
regional hearing which will be
held across the state by the
Commission.
Then he turned to the
Party's current Plan of
Organization and made some
observations:
"I am for change," he said,
"but not just for the sake of
change. Someone noted
recently that there has been
only one major change in ofl
Plan or Organization in t|
past 50 yean. I, (or one, tofl
on that as an indication HI
our current Party plan cant I
all wrong."
The Governor went oa
ray thh dkl not mean
thorough rtudy wa
necessary to strengthen sor
rules, be more specific
others and throw out the
know n to be obsolete.
"But I hope youII keep
r.ind that the basic plan mt
be good or it could not ha
survived this long,"
emphasized. "For that reeso
f would urge commtal
members not to scrap eve
paragraph just for the sake
writing a new one...don't ma
proposals which would bene
one group at the cost
another...and don't discard
good proposal just because
doesn't fit into your plan
how the party should be run
Scott said he hoped to dm
witt commission membi
frori time to time to duscii
various proposals and exchan
iders. He said through such
exchange he was certain
group could come up with
otan acceptable to all.
Finally, he said: The
ahead will not be an easy on
It probably will be a thank*

all sides...damned if you <
and damned if you don't. B

Taylor Urges Staking
Of Parkway Extension
WASHINGTON - U. S. Rep.
Roy A. Taylor announced last
Thursday that $100,000 is
contained in the new Interior
Department appropriation bill
to enable engineers to establish
the center line of the proposed
extension of the Blue Ridge
Parkway.
The bill received final House
and Senate approval
Wednesday and hasbeen sent to
the White House for signature.
The 180-mile extension,
authorized by the 90th
Congress as the result of
legislation sponsored by
Congressman Taylor, will be
constructed between Beech
Gap near Mt. Pisgah ro the
vicinity of Kennesaw Mountain
National Battlefield Park north
of Atlanta and Marietta Ga.
The states of North Carolina
and Georgia are ready to
purchase the rights- of-way,
which they will then donate to
the National Park Service for
the roadway. However, the
land acquisition cannot
proceed until the center line
has actually been staked out.
Much of the extension,
especially in North Carolina,
will cross forest service land
already in federal ownership.
Rep. Taylor said there is an
"immediate urgency" for the
two states to acquire all
privately-held property needed
for the route before rising land
costs esculate further.
Immediate acquisition of the
land is also necessitated by
information that in at least one
area, construction has started
on a cluster of summer homes
in the vicinity of the proposed
route, thus threatening to force
relocation of the road or
purchase of the homes. "The
funds which Congress has
wisely included in the new
budget will enagle engineers to
pinpoint the center line and
avert what could be a
complicated and costly land
acquisition procedure," Taylor
said.
