SENATOR SAM ERVII * SAYS * i WASHINGTON — One of the most impressive manifestations of the loyalty of North Carolinians to their friends is the way they come to Washington to see a new Senator take his oath of office. LOYALTY Tre demonstration of this loyalty was again obvious in connection with Senator B. Everett Jordan’s "swearing in” here in the Senate. North Carolinains took virtually all of the gallery space. The recep tion overflowed the committee room. Impressed by a long series of occasions of this nature, the Secretary of the Senate said to me that he had observed that more North Carolina people attend the oath-taking than is true of any other State. As a consequence of this display of.loyalty on the part of friends and neighbors. Tarheels have a monopoly on the Capitol for a day. My feeling is that the actual oath-taking ceremony should be more fonmal and that all Senators should take time to attend a cere mony of this type. Actually, the affair is over so quickly that spec tators in the gallery are little more than seated before the oath is given and the same signed into the Senate book. THREE SENATORS June 11, 1958, will end the fourth year that I have had the honor of sitting in the Senate from North Carolina. During that time I have had the pleasure of working close ly with three Senators, Alton A. Lennon, W. Kerr Scott and now B. Everett' Jordan. A characteristic of North Carolina Senators is that they work together as a team, and it is most unusual When legislative disagreement of any consequence develops. This is not true ot many States. LABOR UNION REFORM The Senate Labor Subcommittee, under the Chairmanship of Sena tor Kennedy, has beer, holding daily sessions to prepare a labor management reform bill. There is % strong insistence in the Senate for action this session on some legislation to correct abuses as disclosed by the McClellan Com mittee. A bill lAs been promised by the Committee for debate and action before adjournment. I opposed the earlier attempts to write a labor bill on the Senate Floor. This was not due to the merits of the amendments but to my conviction that the Senate should not bypass committee pro cedures. ORDERLY MANNER The orderly procedure now be ing followed is the only satisfactory way to attain a constructive bill. Ail sides of the issue have been given an opportunity to be heard and to present their points of view. The hearings serve to produce a much needed record for study by the Congress and public. Labor management relations is a very complex field in which to legislate. No wise bill can come except by careful analysis. The McClellan Committee, the so-called Senate Rackets Commit tee, has uncovered shocking evi dence of corruption among some union leaders and some manage ment. Service on this Committee has required an enormous amount of time, but the work has been of great significance. The Commit tee’s findings will aid in construc tive legislation to prevent these abuses in the future. COMPLETE OF FRESH GARDEN SEEDS L. L.
