- The Senate Appropriations Commit
tee last week attached a proviso to
the money bills for the State, Justice
and Commerce Departments that if
Red China is admitted to the United
Nations then no U. S. funds will be
made available for the operation of
the U. N.
Regardless of what one may think
of that action by the committee, it
certainly would seem to be an incon
gruous situation for us to be spending
our money, and giving the lives of our
young men, to fight Communism and
Red China and at the same time help
finance an organization in which Red
China's Communists exercise the pow
er of a vote.
' LEGION RIGHT AGAIN
The American Legion has again
stepped out boldly, as have other pa
triotic organiaztions, in opposing the
President's plan to bring an additional
240,000 of Europe's surplus popula
tion to America over and above what
our immigration laws permit.
The President advanced the plan re
cently on the theory that these people
he would bring to America are refu
gees. However, anybody who has in
vestigated the matter knows that they
are not refugees, but over-population.
The American Legion, in appearing
before the Senate Committee hearing
on this bill, warned that to take in
these extra Europeans so 1 rapidly
would be a security risk. The Legion
pointed out that even if efforts to
screen the immigrants were 99 per
cent accurate, the one per cent error
would mean that about 2,500 subver
sive and disloyal people would be ad
mitted. State Senator Hugh Mitchell of
Statesville also appeared before the
committee last week tp oppose the
idea. Senator Mitchell represented
two well-known national groups the
American Coalition and the Fatno-
' AN ULTIMATUM
tic Sons of America.
I was glad to have the opportunity
to present him to the committee as
a fellow North Carolinian who had
been recognized and designated by
these fine national groups to present
their views to the committee.

WASHINGTON The pace in the
Congress was stepped up to a con
siderable degree last week. In the
Senate, the reorganization plan for
the Department of Agricultural was
approved, as was the proposal for
a so-called "single-package" appropri
ations bill.
I voted for the single-package ap
propriations bill, but I was not in fa
vor of the reorganization plan.
The reorganization plan was ap
proved on a party-line basis. Only
one Republican voted against it, even
though many of those who approved
the plan last week had been vigor
ously opposed to the very same plan
a few years ago when it was present
ed by the Democrats.
I felt and I still do that the plan
places too much power in the hands
of the Secretary of Agriculture, and
will allow him to act in a very broad
way in dealing with our Agriculture
program. Mr. Benson has given us no
idea of his intentions with respect to
our farm program and I am a bit ap
prehensive as to how our farmers
in North Carolina will fare under
some of the experiments Mr. Benson
may choose to undertake.
In studying the various matters
coming up in the Senate, I think it is
always well for us to remember that
ours is a government of laws, rather
than of men. I believe that Mr, Ben
son should have been willing to spell
out to the Congress his intentions.
And I think Congress should have re
fused to give up any of ite powers
and authority.
Rut the Republicans thought differ
ently. Let us hope that Mr. Benson
proceeds with caution and wisdom
and thevunderstanding that he must

not take any chances with our farm

to our whole economy.
THE BYRD BILL
Senator Byrd sponsored the sinele-
package appropriations bill, and with
him in its sponsorship were 49 other
Senators. Senator Byrd contends that
this change in the procedure will make
it possible for Congress to examine
more carefully the money it is ap
propriating, which everyone agrees is
desirable. .
There was some opposition to Sena
tor Byrd's proposal. This same idea
was tried rather unsuccessfully some
years ago, and the Congress thereaf
ter returned to the bid system. Per
haps this time it can be done more
efficiently.
At any rate, a large majority of the
Senate thought it ought to be given
another try.
