When a bill or resolution is introduced by a member of Congress, it is referred to one of the congressional com mittees for study and recommenda tion. It is apparent that the 84th Congress, which convened on Jan 5, 1955, will necessarily be a working Congress. Thus far, 2443 bills and resolutions have been introduced and referred to com mittees. Regular Committees The Senate has 15 regular com mittees. During the present week, tile Senate assigned its members to the several committees. As a general rule, a Senator is made a member of two committees. A few members are assigned to three committees. Assignments In my judgment, my colleague, Senator W. Kerr Scott, and I were rather fortunate in our committee assignments. Senator Scott was placed on the committee on agri culture and forestry, the commit tee on post office and civic ser vice and the committee on inter ior and insular affairs; and 1 was assigned to the committee on armed services, the committee on government operations and the committee on interstate ana fore ign commerce. Chairmen The chairman of the committee on armed services is Senator Rich ard R. Russell of Georgia, who is w e 1 1 and favorably known throughout North Carolina. The committee on armed services is charged with the duty of consider ing proposed legislation and other matters relating to the national defense. In view of the dangerous days in which we live, the mem bers of this committee are charged with most responsible duties. Subcommittee The chairman of the committee on government operations is Sen. John L. McClellan, of Arkansas, who is recognized by his fellow senators as one of the ablest mem bers of the Senate. It is of in terest to the people of North Car olina that Mrs. McClellan is a North Carolina girl. The commit tee on government operations acts through two subcommittees. Its subcommittee on reorganization considers proposed legislation and other matters relating to reorgan izations in the Executive branch of the government. The other sub committee, which is known as the permanent subcommittee on in vestigations, investigates corrupt ion and subversion in the execu tive branch of the federal gov ernment and in installations con nected with the national defense. As chairman of the permanent subcommittee on investigations, my beloved predecessor. Senator Clyde It. Iloey, conducted the in vestigation of the so-called “Five Percenters” several years ago. Senator McClellan has not yet as signed members of the government operations committee to these sub 'committees. Consequently, I do not know whether I will be placed on the reorganization subcommit tee or the permanent subcommit tee on investigations. Either as signment will entail considerable responsibility and work. Work Begins The chairman of the Senate committee on interstate and fore ign commerce is Sen. Warren G. Magnuson, of Washington, who is a man of much ability and pop ularity. The Senate committee on interstate and foreign commerce considers proposed legislation and other matters relating to inter state and foreign commerce. As a consequence, it is one of the most important committees of the Senate. The Senate committees will be gin considering the bills and res olutions referred to them next week. From that time to the end of the present session, Senators will have little leisure. BROAD RIVER By Mrs. M. M. Elliott.
