WASHINGTON—-Foreign Ait Trade, and Tax hills hav made news this week in Cor gress. The House leadershi has announced that the Foi eign Aid Appropriations bi! will not reach the House be fore September 19 crushin] hopes for mid-September ad journment. Several state pri mar.v elections are schedulei for early September. It i understood that House lead ers want a full membershi] present for consideration o: this bill. Repsentative Pass man. Chairman of the Houst Appropriations Subcommittei considering the bill, has pro mised to fight for a substant ial cut in the $4.(1 billion re quested for military and oco nomic programs in other coun tries. The measure, if approv ed in some form by the House, would then face the Senate Appropriations Committee be fore coming to the Senate floor late in September. TRADE BILL—The Senate is scheduled to consider the Trade Expansion Bill for 19 62 next. This is one of the major bills yet to be acted on. The Senate Finance Commit tee on August 16 concluded four weeks of hearings on the bill. Following this the Com mittee spent a number of days “marking up’’ the bill for presentation to the Senate. The bill passed the House on June 28. Opposition to the House version of the bill has centered over a provision which would aid firms and workers hurt by increased foreign competition by rea son of future tariff conces sions. Workers hurt by tariff concessions given other coun tries would get higher unem ployment compensation a mounts for longer periods than workers laid off because of non-tariff determined un employment. Observers have pointed out that it would be difficult to determine when .inemployment arose because jf foreign imports and when t arose for other reasons. rAX BILL—During the de uate on the Tax Revision Bill, the so-called Revenue Act for 1962, the Senate rejected a move to reinstate the with holding of taxes on interest and dividends. The Senate Finance Committee earlier had deleted the provision from the bill. As I had pre viously stated, I do not favor withholding taxes on interest and dividends, because I am convinced that such taxes would impose grave hard ships upon taxpayers depen dent for their livelihood upon income from these sources and would impose intolerable record-keeping burdens upon both the government and private financial institutions. Consequently, I voted to keep this proposal out of the pend ing Revenue Act of 1962. ALBERT COATES—On Aug. 24 in the Senate, I called at tention to the monumental work which Albert Coates, Director of the Institute of Government until September 1, has performed for local government in North Carolina. For close to 40 years the State of North Carolina has been blessed with one of the most progressive and enlight ened systems of local govern ment in the United States. This is due in considerable degree to the work Albert Coates performed through the Institute of Government which he created at the University of North Carolina in Chapel Hill. August 25 marked the 66th birthday of Dr. Coates and September 1 marked his retirement as Director of the Institute he founded. Close to 85 percent of the public officials in the State of North Carolina know him as the person whose school first introduced them to their new offices, whose publications kept them in formed of the most advanced methods of operation, and whose institute kept itself ready at all times to answer any questions that might a rise during their terms of of fice. North Carolina is in debted to Albert Coates and his wife, Gladys, who have rendered lasting service to its people.

Greem and Steve Goldstein; 4th Mrs. Max Woodcock and Mrs S. S. Cooley. :s FREE 7 WHEELING i By ■r BILL CROWELL J. P. Brady (Franklir Press) calls 'em Notepad Culls which is a good enough way to get going with a review of some gleanings from the Tar Heel weekly press. J. P., who signs his column “By an Irishman called J. F.,” was complaining in a recent 1^ issue that the proverbial luck of the Irish is pure illusion. e “A kid bashed in the side of my wife’s car the other day 5 while I had it out,’’ he wrote. “Although I wasn’t even in [ the car (it was parked) I nevertheless had to pay for , the damages because of a leg al question centering on pri vate parking lots. After this I’m convinced that a runa way Southern Railway freight could knock me down and I’d have to pay for the dent in the locomotive.” In the Richmond County Journal Hubert Breeze tells us about “Thrill Hill.” Says a carload of boys and girls stop ped at a house the other day. One of the youngsters asked a man standing in his front yard the whereabouts of “Thrill Hill.” Columnist Breeze continued. “Now the homeowner isn’t in the habit of calling the particular hill by that name, but he knew what they were talking about. He supplied directions and they took off. Seconds later he could hear their squeals as they sped over the small hill which residents swear will lift all four wheels off the grounds if the rise is top ped fast enough.” Hubert concluded the item by saying the homeowner, had he been the sneaky type, cbuld have telephoned the cops. But he didn’t. Sidelights in the Wallace Enterprise had this though on reporters: “It is true that newspaper people literally ‘rush in where angels (and laymen) fear to tread..’ But how else, except by being nosey can a reporter get the news?” The column then quoted a bit of whimsey cre dited to Ted Robinson. “Some day I'll pass by the Great Gates of Gold; And see a man pass through, unquestioned and bold; ‘A Saint?’ I'll ask, and St. Peter’ll reply, ‘No, he carries a pass—he's a news paper guy’.” Curtis Russ, proprietor of the Waynesville Mountaineer, is somewhat of an auto buff, too. Although last week he itemed a new distance meas uring' formula apparently ori ginating in the Haywood County area. Said Editor Russ, “Some folks were ask ing a Waynesville man the other day where he lived. He replied: ‘Two beers out.’ ‘What do you mean by that?’ he was asked. ‘It is this way. Seems folks buy two cans of beer in town, start driving and drinking. By the time they reach my place, both cans are empty and the cans are thrown on my lawn’.” Then there’s Alan Brown ing, who columns for the El kin Tribune, Frequently, Alan trots out a piece on old time automobiles. In fact he had an auto column last week in which this succinct paragraph stood out: “We think it is nice that they have cars that don’t have to be greased, and we are anxiously looking for ward to the time when they come out with one that doesn’t require gasoline.” Anniversary of Constitution To Be Observed President John F. Kennedy has officially proclaimed the week of Sept. 17-23 as CON STITUTION WEEK. This marks the 175th anniversary of the signing of the Consti tution of the United States of America. It was on Sept. 17, 1787, after months of meet ings and debates, that the delegates to the Constitution al Convention in Philadelphia • reached agreement and unani mously adopted one of the greatest documents ever pro duced by man. This docu ment laid the foundation for a “government of the people, by the people, for the people" and brought our great nation to its present position as a world power. It is fitting that each and every citizen pause and consider the principles embodied in the Constitution of the United States of Amer ica and dedicate themselves anew to the support of this immortal document. It is imperative in this time of world uncertainty and unrest that each citizen, natu ralized or native born, be conversant with the acts and events that led to the formu lation and adoption of the Constitution in order that he may fully appreciate the mean ing and significance of that document and our constitu tional form of government; and it is fitting and proper on the one hundred and seventy-fifth anniversary of the signing of the Constitution that each citizen during Con stitution Week—Sept. 17 to Sept. 23 renew his pledge to serve his country and God and stand ready to preserve, protect, and defend its Con stitution. —The first aerial mine-lay ing mission in the South Pa cific was carried out March 20, when 42 Marine Corps ‘Avengers” mined the waters )ff southern Bougainville in i dangerous night mission. —The American flag was aised for the first time over he Japanese fortified island )f Iwo Jima on Feb. 23, 19 15, when members of the 28th Marines gained the top >f Mount Suribachi.
