Senator Sam Ervin Comments On Foreign Aid Program • Senate debate during the early part of August has centered on three areas of legislation which, are foreign aid, criminal penalties; for airline hijackers, and appro priations bills for the Defense De partment; the Health, Education and Welfare Department; and the Independent Agencies. During two days Senator Proxmire conducted a one-man debate against the nominiatton of Lawrence O’Connor to the Federal Power Commission. FOREIGN AID At this session of Congress a new plan has been submitted to persuade Congress to plaice the foreign aid program on a long-, term basis and to surrender to an executive agency .the power of the purse. Under the Constitution the power of purse is vested in the Congress. If Congress enacts into law the provision .which authorizes those Who administer foreign' aid to fi nance the program, for 5 years from borrowings from the Trea sury, the Congress will be sur rendering a power, which the Con stitution com templates that the Congress alone should! exercise, to to an agency of the executive branch of the government. In the Senate debate over this provision, Senator Aiken, a long time advocate of foreign aid pro grams and a fonper advocate of this Treasury .borrowing provision, said that the difference between the present financing of tareigh aid and |tbe new plan will be simply this “that for the next five years Congress would have a right to ■look into the stall where the horse used1 to be.” Should the new plan be adopted, if the President should cfaoose'to veto a Congressional disapproval of any part of the foreign add pro gram, Congress would have to muster a two-thirds vote to carry out it wishes. At the present time Congress ©an do this by a simple majority vote. I have made a diligent effort to study the foreign program. My study has left me with an abiding conviction that- foreign add barms our icoutry and the free world1 more than it helps it. To me the most appalling result of our foreign aid program has been its effect upon those who are Charged vwtfa the responsibility for Our diplomacy and foreign policy. Instead of engaging in construc tive thinking, they have accepted the foreign aid program as a sub foreign policy. - 'Equally appalling Is the fact that 'the United States has. actually borrowed a substan tial part of. the money which it has loaned or given away to other nations. In 1961-62 it will dio sp If an individual were to persist in borrowing money for the pur pose of giving it away, his family would procure the appointment of a guardian to manage his affairs. It is high time that Congress should exercise some comroonsense and put similar restraints on the Fed eral iGovernment. Fall-Cultural Practices for Tobacco Nematode Control < by W. E. Barnet Assistant Farm Agent Good fall cultural practices axe important steps ip controlling ne matodes in tobacco lands. Diseases caused by nematodes 'are costing flue-cured growers more money than any other tobacco disease. What Can Be Done? The first important step is to make a thorough survey to deter mine the severity of nematode in this year’s crop. This should bp done immediately after complet ing the harvest. When the survey has been made the stalks should toe cut and plow ed out, exposing the roots of the old plants to the sun for drying. This will doll many nematodse and stop several generations from de veloping. A week or two after the plants have been plowed out, a section; (barrow can be used to further expose roots to the sum. A few'hours in the field digging up and examining the roots of ev ery .twentieth plant in every tenth row will gave you a good idea as to the nematode population in this year’s crop. If the infestion is found to toe severe it will toe necessary to fumigate the soil 'before setting tobacco into the field again with out devoting this land; for several years to nematode resistant crops. The results of experiments and farm demonstrations indicate that certain management practice$ such as plowing out tobacco stub bles immediately following harvest and the rotation of tobacco with nematode resistant crops will give good nematode control. If it is necessary to fumigate the1 soil before setting the next crop it imay not be necessary to dio this year after year if good manage ment practices are followed. It most be remembered that soil fumigation pays only in fields where- nematodes are a, problem, in fieKtsTwhere the nematode pop ulation is low the use of fumigants might result in a reduction in yield rather than an increase. Therefore, it is suggested to make a careful analysis of the nema tode problem in each field, and based on this analysis plan a con trol program. Land Transfers Jones County Register of Deeds!
