N. C. Legislature In Action This is the ninth of a series of weekly summaries 'prepared by the legislative staff of the insti tute of Government on the work of the North Carolina General As sembly of 1963. It is confined to discussions of matter of general interest and major importance. HB 492 permits any county to adopt a loose-leaf and full time permanent registration of voters; this authority is presently limit ed to counties containing a mu nicipality of more than 10,000. HB 505 specifies that in the event of a tie vote for first place in an election, the winner shall be de termined by lot; tied candidates must be notified and afforded an opportunity to witness the draw ing. SB 27G (IIB 522) deletes from the oath required when a voter changes party registration the statement that the voter will sup port his new party nominee until such time as he again changes party affiliation according to law. On Thursday, the Senate Com mittee on Election Laws and Legislative Representation report, ed favorably a committee substi tute for SB 10, the bill regulating absentee voting. The committee substitute was adopted and the bill passed the Senate Friday. The bill retained most of the fea tures of the original and was en dorsed by Chairman Joslin of the State Board of Elections as workable. Prospects for the bill were improved in the House as Speaker Blue issued a statement in suport of the original bill; some House members have been seeking to make significant changes in the original. HIGHWAY SAFETY Highway safety continued to be a popular subject of new bills. SB 273 (HB 527) establishes a chemical test of the breath (to determine alcohol content of blood) of drivers believed to be intoxicated. One who drives on the highways is deemed to have consented to the test; if a person refuses to take the test, his dri ver’s license must be suspended for six months. The result of the test, or the refusal to sufbmit to the test, are admissible in court. SB 24 limits teh authority of the Commissioner of 'Motor Vehicles to suspend or revoke a driver’s license for offenses committed in another state, by specifying that the commissioner may not sus pend or revoke a license when the out-of-st'ate offense consists of speeding between 45 and 70 mph while operating a for-hlre vehicle or combination of vehic les exceeding 20,000 pounds gross weight. SB 253 requires the Mo tor Vehicles Dept, to suspend dri ver’s license of a person under 20 who commits more than one moving violation. Suspension re sults for the first violation if it results in an accident causing property damage or personal in jury. SB 258 protects the Good Samaritan. It provides that doc tors, nurses, or other persons who render emergency aid to or obtain hospitalization of the the victim of an automobile accident or other emergency are not liable in damages for their acts or om issisons and are not liable for hospital bills. SB 288 authorizes highway patrolmen and local of ficers to issue "warning repair orders” to owners of motor ve hicles having defective, improper of inadequate safety equipment. The motorist has ten days in which to correct the defect and present the warning and his cor rective action for inspection. HB 541 requires the Dept, of Motor Vehicles to suspend a driver’s lic ense for speeding in excess of 15 miles per hour over any posted speed limit fixed by or pursuant to GS 20-141; suspension is al ready manadatory in specified instances; this bill broadens the application of the suspension mandate. HB 501 the compulsory motor vehicle liability insurance law. EDUCATION Money; Two different bills, each authorizing the issuance of $100 million in school construc tion and improvement bonds, sub ject to a vote of the people of the state, were introduced during the week. HB 489 sets out specific allocations to each county; funds would 'be expended under the di rection of the State Board of Ed ucation, for needs determined by the board, the county commis sioners, and the local school board, with the commissioners controlling in case of disagree ment. SB 262 (HB 514) allocates the funds to counties and admin istrative units therein according to average daily membership fig ures. Funds would be made avail able by the State Board of Edu cation, when the local unit sub mitted an approvable plan of school organization and a plan of expenditure, for construction, im provement and renovation of school facilities and for purchase of necessary equipment. SB 280 (HB 519> appropriates to the counties a sum equal to 15 per cent of the annual sales and use tax net proceeds to be used for purchase, construction, etc., of school plant facilities. CREDIT SB 252 makes it unlawful to cheat-if the cheating consists of getting credit for another’s work or in some other fraudulent way acquiring college credit, diplo mas, etc. Giving and receiving im proper assistance are equally condemned. HIGHER EDUCATION The Senate Committee o n Higher Education has approved SB 72, the Carlyle Commission’s recommended bill and is expected to report it at the beginning of ftexall r»03(^S)i%r* DIAMOND JUBILEE 10 BIG DAYS • Thurs.

SB 264(HB 508) establishes a system of scholarship grants ranging up to $100 per emester (based upon the financial status of the applicant and his family) to encourage college attendance by North Carolinians. PUBLIC UmLITIES The merits of "fair value” as a rate base were debated Tnursday as joint Committees on Public U tilities continued hearings on SB 116 (HB 203) the General Sta tutes Commission’s revision of the state utility laws. SB 256, by Sen. Forsyth, revikes the authori ty of utilities to put suspended rates into effect under bond, and requires the re-establishment of rates existing prior to any pre sently effective increase-undeir bond. The bill would adopt, oh a statewide basis, substantially the same principles as SB 12 and SB 69 (the Nantahala Power Com pany bill) combined. SB 266 reg ulates the practice of utility com panies making payments to new home builders and others to se cure the installation or adoption of use of a particlular utility ser vice; a utility would first have to file and obtain approval of a schedule of compensation toy the Utilities Commission, and no pre ference could be given for multi ple or exclusive use by the consu mer of a particular utility ser vice. COUNTIES, CITIES and TOWNS SB 254 may facilitate munici pal rubbish collection. The bill al lows a truck to tow as many as three trailers for the purpose of collecting refuse and rubbish in municipalities, provided the total 'ength of the “trailer-train” com bination does not exceed 50 feet. HB 510 specifies that the Insur ance Commissioner, in exercising his duties in enforcement of the State Building Code, shall work in cooperation with local officials and inspectors. SB 286 authorizes boards of county commissioners to deter mine the most suitable divisions for keeping tax records. HB 540 reduces the Dresent four division.1! of tax records under GS 105-323 (whites, colored, Indian, corpor ate) to two (individuals and cor porate). MISCELLANEOUS SR 282 and an unnumbered House Resolution both request the President of the University of North Carolina and the Chan cellor of State College to restudv the question of the Dixie Classic and to report back to the respec tive houses by 'May 10. The House Resolution passed that body; the Senate Resolution was referred to committee-HB 507 appropri ates funds to permit two one step increment salary increases for full-time State employees un der the Personnel Act.

Does this amount count in the $1200 a mount I may earn under social security? A. Cash rent counts under soc ial security only if you and your tenant have agreed that you take a material part in the production ol the crops raised on the farm. Generally speaking, when a land owner rents out his farm for cash, he wouldn’t be taking a significant part in the production of the crops since he would get a set amount of rent for the year whether or not it was a good crop year. Q—I had my farm in the soil Bank Program last year. This year I have placed part of my land in the new Feed Grain Pro gram. The Soil Bank Payments I received last year counted for social security purposes. Will the payments I receive this year al so count for social security pur poses. A—-The answer is yes. The same rules apply under the new Feed Grain Program as applied to Soil Bank. Q—I recently quit my job and started my own business. Will this self-employment be counted toward social security? A—If your net earnings a mount to less than $400 in a year, they do not count toward social security and you do not pay sc ial security taxes on them.
