LEGISLATIVE  MESSAGE 

OF 

THE  HONORABLE  DAN  K.  MOORE 

GOVERNOR  OF  NORTH  CAROLINA 

Raleigh,  North  Carolina 

February  4,  1965 

INTRODUCTION 

"Mr.  President,  Mr.  Speaker,  Members  of  the  General  Assembly  of  North 
Carolina: 

We  are  convened  here  today  at  a  moment  in  the  history  of  our  state  when 
the  burden  of  our  responsibilities  as  elected  officials  is  surpassed  only  by 
our  opportunities  for  achievement  in  the  public  interest.  At  this  moment, 
North  Carolina  stands  on  the  threshold  of  greatness.  The  impetus  to  move 
into  this  period  of  promise  must  come  from  you  and  me  working  together 
with  all  the  people  of  North  Carolina. 

Each  of  you  is  in  a  position  of  high  public  trust.  I  know  and  respect 
the  qualities  of  character  and  performance  that  have  led  to  your  election 
and  reelection  to  these  positions  of  service.  Having  served  in  this  great 
legislative  body,  I  appreciate  the  complexity  of  the  many  important  tasks 
that  will  confront  you. 

Yesterday  each  of  you  swore  to  serve  our  state  faithfully  and  to  the 
best  of  your  ability.  I  know  each  of  you  is  dedicated  to  carrying  out  that 
oath  of  office.  You  can  make  this  one  of  the  greatest  General  Assemblies, 
and  together  we  can  do  much  good  for  North  Carolina  and  our  fellow 
citizens.  As  a  lifelong  Democrat,  I  am  proud  of  the  heritage  of  good  gov- 
ernment which  the  Democratic  Party  has  made  possible  through  Legislatures 
of  the  past  sixty  years. 

I  look  forward  to  working  closely  with  each  of  you  in  a  constructive,  co- 
operative effort  to  meet  our  mutual  responsibilities.  Together  we  must 
grasp  the  opportunities  which  are  here  for  North  Carolina.  With  the 
public  interest  ever  foremost,  you  can  count  on  my  complete  and  untiring 
cooperation. 

During  the  last  year,  I  have  traveled  the  length  and  breadth  of  our 
state — visited  in  each  of  your  counties,  each  of  your  districts.  I  have 
talked  at  length  with  our  people  and  have  listened  to  what  they  have  said. 
My  inaugural   address   reflected   the   spirit  of  our  people. 

My  program  is  designed  to  reflect,  perpetuate  and  strengthen  that 
spirit.  It  is  my  firm  belief  that  this  program  will  move  North  Carolina 
closer  to  the  goal  of  a  more  abundant  life  for  every  citizen.  This  program 
will  help  us  to  realize  the  opportunities  for  achievement  that  are  ours 
today  as  never  before  in  history. 


1965]  HOUSE  JOURNAL  23 

PUBLIC   EDUCATION 

If  North  Carolina  stands  on  the  threshold  of  an  era  of  unprecedented 
prosperity,  as  we  have  every  reason  to  believe  it  does,  then  the  path  we 
must  follow  to  achieve  that  goal  is  education.  It  is  the  first  responsibility 
of  state  government  and  it  must  be  given  attention  commensurate  with  that 
responsibility  by  this  General  Assembly. 

Much  progress  has  been  made  in  education  in  recent  years.  Even  now 
plans  are  being  made  across  the  state  to  utilize  fully  the  $100  million 
school  bond  issue  for  capital  improvements  which  the  General  Assembly 
authorized,  which  I  advocated  and  the  people  approved.  But,  North  Caro- 
lina is  still  behind  in  great  many  areas  of  education,  and  now  we  must 
take  specific  steps  to  catch  up. 

I  recommend  that  this  General  Assembly: 

First,  reduce  class  size  by  three  in  grades  one  through  three,  and  by 
one  in  grades  four  through  twelve. 

Second,  provide  a  salary  increase  of  5  per  cent  for  public  school  in- 
structional personnel  for  the  first  year  of  the  biennium  and  5  per  cent 
for  the  second. 

Third,  provide  additional  guidance  counsel  and  remedial  teachers. 

Fourth,  restore  the  continuing  contract  for  our  teachers. 

Fifth,  extend  the  term  of  employment  for  public  school  principals. 

Sixth,  relieve  students  and  parents  of  the  burden  of  paying  necessary 
school  and  book  fees  and  initiate  a  study  to  find  ways  of  eliminating  un- 
necessary fees,  and 

Seventh,  strengthen  our  school  lunch  program  to  insure  that  hunger  is 
banished  forever  from  the  classrooms  of  North  Carolina. 

North  Carolina  should  spare  no  effort  to  reduce  the  drop-out  problem. 
We  must  expand  the  vocational  training  program  for  both  young  people 
and  adults.  Special  classes  must  be  provided  for  the  emotionally  ill  and 
the  retarded  and  for  the  gifted.  The  first  responsibility,  however,  is  to 
the  average  student;  and  the  second  is  to  the  teacher  on  whom  the  success 
of  any  educational  program  rests. 

We  must  appraise  and  reappraise  the  various  experimental  programs 
now  being  conducted  in  education.  If  in  the  judgment  of  our  state  educa- 
tion officials,  these  experiments  show  promise,  they  will  be  continued.  If 
not,  they  should  be  discontinued  and  new  avenues  sought  to  meet  the 
growing  challenge  of  education. 

I  strongly  oppose  any  federal  control  in  the  North  Carolina  public 
school  system.  In  these  changing  times,  however,  we  recognize  that  the 
federal  government  has  involved  itself  in  public  education.  There  are  now 
new  laws  and  regulations  which  will  change  the  way  many  of  our  schools 
are  operated.  As  much  as  we  dislike  these  changes,  I  remind  you  of 
our  state's  proud  heritage  as  a  peaceful  and  law-abiding  people.  The  law 
must  be  obeyed. 


24  HOUSE  JOURNAL  [Session 

HIGHER   EDUCATION 

North  Carolina  must  act  now  to  insure  that  its  every  son  and  daughter 
with  a  capacity  for  college  work  is  given  the  incentive  and  the  opportunity 
to  attend  a  college  of  exceptional  quality.  This  is  a  goal  of  my  administra- 
tion. 

Our  state-supported  institutions  of  higher  learning  must  be  expanded 
physically  and  academically.  I  am  deeply  concerned  about  the  capital  im- 
provement needs  of  our  state  colleges  and  The  University.  This  is  a  matter 
which  deserves  your  careful  consideration,  and  I  expect  to  speak  directly 
to  this  problem  in  my  budget  message  to  follow  at  a  later  date. 

Our  facilities  for  vocational  training,  our  Industrial  Education  Centers 
and  our  Technical  Institutes  must  continue  to  expand.  Full  support  must  be 
given  to  the  Community  College.  We  must  be  concerned  with  and  we  must 
give  every  possible  encouragement  to  the  private  and  church-related  institu- 
tions that  have  contributed  so  much  to  the  well-being  of  North  Carolina. 

The  University  of  North  Carolina  is  today  and  will  remain  the  single 
most  important  factor  in  higher  education  in  our  state.  I  am  convinced 
of  the  value  of  the  One  University  concept,  and  I  will  vigorously  oppose 
any  effort  to  deprive  this  state  of  the  positive  benefits  of  consolidation.  We 
must  strengthen  rather  than  weaken  the  total  University  at  Greensboro, 
at  Raleigh,  and  at  Chapel  Hill.  •  In  addition,  I  strongly  recommend  that 
the  fourth  campus  of  the  University  be  located  at  Charlotte  as  proposed  by 
the  University  Trustees  and  approved  by  the  State  Board  of  Higher  Educa- 
tion. 

I  do  not  believe  that  the  Trustees  of  the  University  are  properly  appor- 
tioned at  this  time.  I  recommend  that  the  General  Assembly  appoint  a 
commission  to  study  the  role  of  the  Trustees  in  our  University  System,  the 
method  of  their  selection  and  the  representation  of  the  various  campuses 
on  the  Board  of  Trustees.  In  view  of  the  campus  which  I  recommend  be 
added  at  Charlotte,  this  is  the  logical  time  to  re-examine  and  improve 
our  system  of  trustees.  Meanwhile,  when  you  consider  the  selection  of 
trustees  at  this  session,  every  effort  should  be  made  to  equalize  representa- 
tion more  fully. 

My  position  on  the  Speaker  Ban  Law  is  well  known.  As  important  as 
this  law  is  and  as  important  as  the  proposed  name  change  for  North  Caro- 
lina State  is,  neither  issue  should  not  be  allowed  to  weaken  our  Consolidated 
University.  Both  should  be  settled  promptly.  The  welfare  of  the  University 
should  be  your  overriding  concern  in  approaching  these  and  related  matters 
touching  our  University  System. 

According  to  the  State  Board  of  Higher  Education,  there  will  be  more 
qualified  students  applying  for  admission  to  institutions  of  higher  learning 
this  year  than  can  be  admitted.  Some  applicants  must  be  turned  away  be- 
cause of  inadequate  facilities.  A  deepening  of  this  crisis  in  higher  education 
appears  certain  to  develop  in  the  years  immediately  ahead.  This  is  a  matter 
of  great  importance  to  the  General  Assembly  and  I  ask  that  you  give  this 
problem  your  full  consideration. 


1965]  HOUSE  JOURNAL  25 

I  am  asking  the  State  Board  of  Higher  Education  to  give  the  General 
Assembly  and  me  for  our  joint  consideration  its  recommendations  on  the 
request  from  our  institutions  of  higher  learning  for  new  facilities.  In  view 
of  the  overwhelming  requests  for  capital  improvements,  there  must  be 
clear-cut  priorities  established  which  are  based  on  goals  denned  by  our 
State  Board  of  Higher  Education. 

HIGHWAY   COMMISSION 

In  the  interest  of  economy,  efficiency  and  integrity  in  the  building  of 
highways,  I  recommend  to  you  a  reorganization  of  the  State  Highway  Com- 
mission. It  is  not  necessary  that  I  go  into  all  of  the  changes  involved.  A 
bill  incorporating  the  details  of  my  proposal  will  be  introduced  into  this 
General  Assembly. 

Let  me  say,  however,  it  will  provide  for  a  Chairman  who  also  will  have 
the  title  of  Director  of  Highways,  and  who  will  give  his  full  time  to  his 
duties.  Under  regulations  previously  adopted  by  the  Commission,  he  will 
have  the  authority  of  the  Commission  when  it  is  not  in  session. 

In  my  proposed  reorganization,  the  Commission  will  be  reduced  to  four- 
teen members.  They  will  serve  on  a  per  diem  basis  and  will  fairly  represent 
every  section  of  the  state,  but  will  subscribe  to  the  statewide  concept  of 
our  highway  system. 

There  will  be  a  State  Highway  Administrator  responsible  to  the  Com- 
mission who  shall  be  a  career  official  and  have  charge  of  the  administrative 
operations  of  the  Commission. 

There  also  will  be  a  Director  of  Secondary  Roads,  who  representing  the 
Commission,  will  act  in  close  cooperation  with  boards  of  county  commis- 
sioners throughout  the  state. 

The  bill  will  provide  penalties  and  forfeiture  of  public  office  if  any 
commissioner  or  employee  of  the  Commission  shall  use  his  official  position 
for  his  own  private  interest.  There  will  be  an  additional  provision  to 
make  it  unlawful  for  anyone  dealing  with  the  Highway  Commission  to 
promise  or  offer  anything  of  value  to  any  member  of  the  Highway  Com- 
mission or  its  employees  for  the  purpose  of  influencing  the  action  of  such 
commissioner  or  employee. 

The  purpose  of  this  reorganization  will  be  to  pinpoint  clearly  responsi- 
bility for  the  handling  of  highway  funds,  as  well  as  every  phase  of  highway 
activity,  and  as  far  as  possible,  to  remove  the  construction  of  highways 
from  the  blight  of  self-interest  or  political  favoritism.  In  view  of  the  large 
sums  that  will  be  spent  during  the  next  four  years  for  highways,  it  is 
essential,  in  my  opinion,  that  this  reorganization  be  adopted.  It  combines 
some  of  the  best  phases  of  all  the  reorganizations  of  the  past  and  will 
help  to  guarantee  that  the  people  will  get  a  dollar's  worth  for  roads  for 
every  dollar  spent. 

If  this  General  Assembly  agrees  with  me  and  adopts  this  plan  for  re- 
organization, I  pledge  to  you  and  to  the  people  that  I  will  appoint  to  this 
Commission  men  of  outstanding  experience,  ability  and  integrity,  who,  I 
believe,  will  be  true  to  their  trust.  North  Carolina  deserves  and  must  have 
such  leadership   on   its   Highway  Commission. 


26  HOUSE  JOURNAL  [Session 

ROAD  BONDS 

To  meet  North  Carolina's  ever  expanding  road  construction  needs,  I 
recommend  that  you  authorize  a  $300  million  road  bond  issue,  subject  to  a 
vote  of  the  people,  to  be  spent  over  a  five-year  period.  Of  this  $300  million, 
I  recommend  that  $150  million  be  spent  on  the  primary  system,  that  $75 
million  be  used  for  highways  within  our  municipalities,  and  that  $75  million 
be  used  for  secondary  roads.  Where  it  would  appear  to  be  more  economical, 
I  urge  that  these  roads  be  constructed  by  free  enterprise  upon  the  basis  of 
competitive  bids. 

I  recommend  that  this  bond  issue  be  financed  within  the  present  tax 
structure  utilizing  the  one  cent  per  gallon  tax  which  has  financed  the 
secondary  road  bond  issue  of  1949.  This  tax  can  adequately  provide  for 
the  $300  million  bond  issue  after  the  1949  bond  issue  is  provided  for  in 
1966.  Until  this  is  accomplished,  I  recommend  that  the  debt  service  for 
the  new  bonds  be  derived  from  current  revenues  of  the  Highway  Fund. 

The  legislation  to  be  introduced  will  spell  out  as  nearly  as  possible  how 
these  funds  will  be  spent  in  each  county  and  each  municipality  of  the 
state.  If  the  General  Assembly  authorizes  this  bond  issue,  the  referendum 
should  be  held  promptly.  We  need  to  get  under  way  on  this  program  which 
will  go  far  toward  providing  North  Carolina  with  the  modern  highway 
system  which  we  must  have  to  serve  our  people  and  our  expanding  economy. 

FISCAL  POLICY 

We  must  keep  our  state  fiscally  sound.  I  subscribe  to  the  doctrine  of 
the  balanced  budget.  I  endorse  the  record  of  our  state  extending  over  many 
decades  for  economy,  efficiency  and  integrity  in  fiscal  affairs.  Our  manage- 
ment of  the  public  debt  of  the  state  has  earned  for  us  an  AAA  rating — 
the  highest  rating  for  state  bonds.  It  will  be  a  major  objective  of  this 
administration  to  preserve  our  high  credit  standing  by  continuing  the 
sound  fiscal  policies  that  have  generally  been  characteristic  of  our  state 
since  the  adoption  of  the  Executive  Budget  Act  in  1925. 

Adequate  tax  revenues  are  necessary  if  the  state  is  to  maintain  present 
levels  of  service  and  meet  the  requiremnts  of  normally  expanding  services 
in  the  future.  However,  there  is  every  indication  that  our  growing  economy 
will  provide  the  necessary  revenue  to  meet  our  state's  needs.  Therefore,  in 
keeping  with  a  promise  made  by  me  frequently  during  the  past  year,  I 
oppose  any  increase  in  taxes. 

Taxes  in  North  Carolina  are  already  high  enough,  and  if  it  should  appear 
that  revenues  are  coming  in  at  levels  in  excess  of  budget  needs,  I  would 
urge  that  the  General  Assembly  give  serious  consideration:  (1)  to  amending 
the  state  income  tax  law  to  increase  the  exemption  allowed  each  dependent 
from  the  present  $300  to  $600;  and  (2)  to  providing  exemptions  for  North 
Carolinians  who  are  65  and  older  that  are  comparable  with  the  provisions 
of  the  federal  income  tax  law. 

These  measures  will  provide  tax  relief  where  it  is  most  needed — among 
young  couples  with  children  and  among  our  older  people. 


1965]  HOUSE  JOURNAL  27 

Since  the  relief  here  recommended  is  desirable,  we  will  watch  with 
interest  the  monthly  reports  of  revenue  collections  made  by  the  Revenue 
Department,  which  by  April  should  forecast  with  reasonable  certainty  the 
size  of  the  surplus  as  of  June  30th  of  this  year  and  the  levels  of  revenue 
that  may  be  expected  in  the  next  biennium. 

INDUSTRIAL   DEVELOPMENT 

Industrial  development  is  an  important  key  to  providing  more  jobs,  more 
job  opportunities  and  a  better  way  of  life  for  all  our  people.  Creation  of 
new  local  industries,  expansion  of  existing  industries  and  the  location  in 
North  Carolina  of  new  out-of-state  industries  will  be  major  goals  of  my 
administration.  The  direct  result  will  be  a  higher  per  capita  income  for 
our  people. 

Through  positive  active  leadership  the  State  Department  of  Conservation 
and  Development  must  keep  North  Carolina  in  the  forefront  of  modern 
industrial  growth  and  development.  As  Governor,  I  shall  give  my  full 
support  and  personal  attention  to  every  aspect  of  the  state's  program.  I 
shall  call  on  leaders  of  business,  industry,  commerce  and  the  professions 
to  lend  their  talents  and  know-how  to  increase  our  rate  of  development  and 
improve  the  scope  and  quality  of  our  search  for  productive  industrial 
prospects. 

We  must  maintain  the  sound  policy  of  offering  new  industry  the  same 
benefits  and  services  now  available  to  our  existing  industries  which  have 
contributed  so  much  to  our  economic   growth   and   prosperity. 

There  is  a  definite  need  for  a  closer,  more  effective  relationship  between 
the  commerce  and  industry  division  and  all  communities  and  counties  in 
the  state.  I  am  giving  careful  study  to  ways  and  means  of  locating  trained 
staff  members  of  commerce  and  industry  across  the  state  to  assist  more 
directly  in  the  economic  development  of  each  county. 

While  I  doubt  any  additional  funds  will  be  needed,  if  it  develops  later 
that  they  are,  I  will  ask  for  your  support  to  accomplish  this  grass-roots 
program. 

NATURAL    RESOURCES 

Our  natural  resources  are  a  sacred  trust  passed  from  one  generation  to 
the  next  as  a  foundation  upon  which  to  build  a  better  state.  We  are 
fortunate  in  the  abundance  of  our  resources.  We  have  done  well  in  be- 
ginning to  conserve  and  develop  these  gifts  of  nature.  The  job  is  not  com- 
pleted, however,  and  our  programs  must  be  maintained  or  accelerated. 

In  forestry,  we  have  set  the  pace  in  the  southeast  but  the  job  is  far 
from  finished.  Our  mineral  resources  must  be  more  fully  developed.  Our 
park  system  is  one  of  the  finest  in  the  country,  but  it  has  room  for  im- 
provement. Recreational  needs  deserve  your  full  consideration.  There  is 
still  work  to  be  done  to  protect  our  Outer  Banks  and  other  coastal  areas. 
Our  soils  and  our  wildlife  must  be  conserved.  Our  water  resources  are 
becoming  more  and  more  important.  We  must  maintain  our  efforts  to 
insure  adequate  supplies  of  clean,  usable  water  for  the  future.

HEALTH    AND   WELFARE 

The  health  and  the  welfare  of  our  people  are  major  concerns  of  this 
administration.  State  Agencies  with  responsibilities  in  these  fields  are  to 
be  commended  for  their  past  work.  One  of  our  most  urgent  needs  is  for 
more  trained  personnel  in  all  health  and  welfare  agencies. 

There  are  the  underprivileged  young,  the  infirm,  the  handicapped  and 
the  elderly  among  us  who  cannot  provide  for  their  own  physical  needs. 
These  people  must  be  assisted  by  our  Department  of  Public  Welfare,  and 
wherever  possible,  they  must  be  rehabilitated  for  their  own  good  and  for 
the  good  of  North  Carolina. 

All  of  us  have  heard  there  is  misuse  of  public  welfare  programs.  These 
incidents  are  few  in  comparison  with  the  good  being  done.  But,  we  do 
have  a  responsibility  to  correct  any  misuse.  Much  of  this  can  be  accom- 
plished though  careful  administration,  and  I  will  work  closely  with  welfare 
officials  to  bring  this  about. 

Protection  of  the  public  health  is  an  essential  service  of  state  government 
working  in  cooperation  with  local  governments.  I  recommend  general  sup- 
port for  the  program  of  the  State  Board  of  Health  and  other  health-related 
agencies  and  institutions.  These  and  other  programs  supported  by  the 
State  Medical  Society,  and  private  medical  centers  throughout  the  state 
will  receive  my  personal  attention. 

The  mentally  ill  must  have  our  special  consideration.  Much  has  been 
done  for  these  people  in  recent  years,  but  we  still  have  much  to  do.  We  must 
carry  mental  health  treatment  to  the  community  level.  I  recommend  that 
we  provide  the  necessary  facilities  to  meet  the  needs  of  all  our  mentally  ill. 

Mental  retardation  is  a  problem  of  deep  concern  to  everyone.  Some  men- 
tally retarded  children  below  the  age  of  six  have  been  denied  treatment 
and  custodial  care  in  state  facilities.  This  policy  should  be  changed  to 
provide  help  for  the  children  of  parents  who  desire  such  assistance. 

Alcoholism  is  a  disease  which  demands  our  immediate  attention.  Over 
50,000  of  our  fellow  citizens  are  classified  as  alcoholics.  Considerable  re- 
search is  being  done  in  this  area.  I  urge  you  to  study  this  problem  and  to 
utlilize  all  available  knowledge  on  the  cause  and  prevention  of  this  disease. 
I  recommend  the  immediate  establishment  of  two  additional  alcoholic  re- 
habilitation centers — one  in  the  eastern  part  of  the  state  and  the  other 
in  the  western  part. 

I  also  ask  you  to  give  special  attention  to  the  varied  and  complex  health 
problem  that  confront  our  older  people.  They  have  given  and  are  giving 
much  of  themselves  to  the  building  of  this  state,  and  we  have  the  re- 
sponsibility and  the  privilege  of  working  to  solve  their  problems  in  the 
health  field  and  elsewhere. 

CORRECTION    AND   REHABILITATION 

The  administration  of  justice  demands  that  punishment  be  given  where 
deserved;  however,  rehabilitation  must  be  the  guiding  principle  of  our 
prison,  parole  and  probation  agencies. 


1965]  HOUSE  JOURNAL  29 

Our  rehabilitation  program  must  be  strengthened  and  special  attention 
must  be  given  to  the  young  offender,  the  alcoholic,  and  the  mentally  or 
emotionally  disturbed  person.  Each  inmate  must  be  provided  with  more 
effective  guidance.  He  must  be  given  the  incentive  to  be  a  more  responsible 
and  productive  citizen. 

Proper  guidance  and  incentive  also  must  be  given  our  boys  and  girls  who 
have  violated  the  law.  Outstanding  progress  has  been  made  in  our  cor- 
rection and  training  institutions.  But  nothing  should  be  left  undone  to 
give  these  youngsters  the  opportunity  to  learn,  to  develop,  and  to  re-enter 
society  as  responsible  young  men  and  women. 

An  important  part  of  our  penal  program  is  the  supervision  of  those  on 
parole  and  probation.  North  Carolina  has  been  a  pioneer  and  leader  in 
these  fields.  The  state  has  reclaimed  a  great  number  of  lives  and  gained 
considerable  economic  benefit  because  of  these  programs.  They  deserve  our 
continued  support. 

COURT   IMPROVEMENT 

Implementation  of  the  recent  changes  in  the  Judicial  Article  of  the 
Constitution  is  important  to  the  proper  administration  of  justice.  The  1963 
General  Assembly,  as  you  know,  established  the  Courts  Commission  to 
draft  the  necesary  implementing  legislation. 

As  a  former  judge  and  as  a  citizen,  I  have  an  abiding  interest  in  the 
improvement  of  our  system  of  courts.  Therefore,  I  endorse  in  general  the 
recommendations  of  the  Courts  Commission,  especially  those  to  create  a 
uniform  system  of  lower  courts  and  uniform  court  costs. 

LAW   AND   ORDER 

As  I  stated  in  my  inaugural  message,  no  one  is  above  or  beyond  the 
law.  As  Governor,  I  shall  not  tolerate  violence  or  lawlessness  anywhere  in 
North  Carolina.  We  shall  insist  that  the  law  be  impartially  enforced  without 
fear  or  favor. 

HUMAN   RELATIONS 

Continued  progress  in  human  relations  is  essential.  Substantial  progress 
has  been  made  in  recent  years.  Some  feel  we  have  moved  too  fast;  others, 
that  we  have  moved  too  slowly. 

I  believe  and  sincerely  hope  that  we  in  North  Carolina  have  come  to  a 
time  of  calm  and  sensible  reappraisal  in  this  area.  North  Carolinians  gen- 
erally have  become  more  rational  and  more  tolerant  of  the  views  of  others 
and  they  have  a  better  understanding  of  the  reasons  for  these  views. 

However,  at  a  time  of  reappraisal  is  not  a  time  for  complacency.  The 
problems  have  not  passed.  They  will  require  our  constant  and  sincere 
attention  in  the  days  ahead.  I  am  initiating  a  study  of  the  role  state  govern- 
ment is  playing  in  this  area  through  such  agencies  as  the  Good  Neighbor 
Council.  If  these  programs  are  meeting  the  need,  they  should  be  continued. 
If  not,  we  will  find  new  programs. 


30  HOUSE  JOURNAL  [Session 

I  do  not  foresee  the  necessity  for  specific  legislation  in  the  area  of  human 
relations,  but  I  do  welcome  any  advice  and  suggestions  you  may  have. 
Your  interest  and  mine  are  identical — protecting  the  rights  of  all  North 
Carolinians  and  insuring  that  every  citizen  has  an  opportunity  to  develop 
his  talents  and  use  these  talents  to  help  us  build  a  better  North  Carolina. 

AGRICULTURE 

Agriculture  has  time-honored  place  in  the  life  and  the  economy  of 
North  Carolina.  If  our  state  is  to  move  across  this  threshold  of  greatness 
where  we  now  stand,  our  agriculture  and  related  industry  will  have  to 
provide  much  of  the  impetus.  For  this  reason,  my  administration  is  going 
to  give  vigorous  attention  to  all  of  the  opportunities,  as  well  as  the  problems, 
of  agriculture. 

Tobacco,  our  major  crop,  is  being  threatened  as  never  before,  both  by 
over  production  and  by  a  health  scare.  We  are  going  to  spare  no  effort  to 
resolve  the  difficulties  that  confront  our  165,000  tobacco  farm  families,  and 
in  turn,  that  large  segment  of  our  economy  geared  to  tobacco.  And,  I  in- 
clude here  the  40,000  North  Carolinians  who  earn  their  livelihood  from  the 
manufacture  of  tobacco  products. 

The  over  production  of  tobacco  has  forced  drastic  cuts  in  acreage  allot- 
ments. The  emphasis  on  ever-increasing  production  per  acre  has  seriously 
affected  the  quality  and  usability  of  our  tobacco.  The  existing  federal 
acreage  allotment  program  is  apparently  inadequate  as  a  means  of  con- 
trolling production  and  Congress  is  now  considering  changes  in  it. 

I  recommend  this  General  Asembly  take  immediate  action  to  consider 
this  problem  of  over  production  and  changes  in  the  acreage  allotment  pro- 
gram being  recommended  by  our  tobacco  leadership.  After  study,  I  urge 
you  to  make  your  views  known.  As  Governor,  I  will  work  closely  with  our 
congressional  delegation  to  secure  necessary  legislation.  I  need  the  advice 
and  help  of  the  General  Assembly  and  the  people  in  dealing  with  this 
problem. 

In  view  of  the  recent  health  scare,  I  recommend  that  you  consider  the 
advisability  of  further  state  research  efforts  in  this  area. 

I  also  urge  you  to  support  diversification  of  our  agriculture  with  every 
means  at  your  command.  Animal  agriculture  has  a  great  future  in  North 
Carolina  and  I  hope  you  will  promote  it  as  diligently  as  we  do  our  im- 
portant money  crops.  My  administration  will  encourage  the  production, 
processing,  packaging  and  marketing  of  a  wider  variety  of  farm  products 
with  special  emphasis  on  food  commodities.  The  present  offers  a  golden 
opportunity  for  North  Carolina  to  move  more  into  the  market  for  processed 
foods  and  we  intend  to  make  the  most  of  this  opportunity. 

In  all  our  efforts  to  take  advantage  of  agriculture  opportunities,  I  intend 
to  use  the  experience  and  programs  of  our  State  Department  of  Agriculture 
and  North  Carolina  State  and  the  various  farm  organizations.  My  co- 
operation with  them  will  be  coordinated  through  my  Special  Assistant  for 
Farm  Affairs,  with  the  advice  of  my  Agricultural  Advisory  Committee.

BANKING,   TRADE   AND   COMMERCE 

Operating  within  the  scope  of  present  law,  our  banks  are  meeting  their 
responsibility  in  the  economic  development  of  our  state.  They  are  able  to 
earn  reasonable  profits  within  the  framework  of  the  existing  laws.  There- 
fore, I  would  oppose  any  effort  to  increase  the  legal  interest  rate  in  North 
Carolina. 

North  Carolina  must  be  alert  to  the  fact  that  American  business  is  highly 
mobile  and  has  become  more  and  more  interstate  in  nature.  At  the  present 
time  there  is  no  one  body  of  law  governing  commercial  transactions  in  this 
state.  As  a  result,  our  businessmen,  their  customers  and  suppliers  in  this 
and  other  states  are  often  handicapped  by  the  lack  of  uniformity  of  com- 
merical  law  between  North  Carolina  and  other  jurisdictions.  In  view  of 
this  need,  I  request  that  you  give  careful  consideration  to  enactment  of 
the  Uniform  Commerical  Code. 

UTILITIES 

North  Carolina  is  very  fortunate  in  the  quality  of  its  utilities  and  in 
the  dedication  to  public  responsibility  so  frequently  evidenced  by  the  people 
who  control  those  utilities.  I  do  not  think  we  could  find  a  better  example 
of  this  dedication  than  the  unselfish  manner  in  which  the  private  power 
companies   and  electric  cooperatives   recently   resolved   their    differences. 

This  settlement  was,  of  course,  in  the  best  interest  of  the  parties  con- 
cerned, but  much  more  significantly,  it  was  in  the  interest  of  this  state 
and  its  future.  All  who  had  a  part  in  these  deliberations  are  to  be  com- 
mended. It  is  my  sincere  hope  that  their  recommendations  will  meet  the 
approval  of  the  General  Assembly  as  well  as  the  muncipalities  and  others 
who  have  an  interest. 

All  of  our  utilities  should  be  encouraged  to  expand  their  facilities  wher- 
ever it  is  necessary  to  provide  more  electric  power,  more  gas,  more  tele- 
phones, and  better  transportation  services  for  our  dynamic,  growing  state. 
Our  Utilities  Commission  should  be  constituted  and  staffed  so  as  to  protect 
fully  the  public  interest  and  all  consumers. 

SCIENCE   AND   TECHNOLOGY 

The  fields  of  science,  research  and  technology  are  increasingly  important 
to  North  Carolina.  We  have  an  advantage  in  these  fields.  However,  we 
must  act  now  to  utilize  this  advantage  to  the  fullest.  My  administration 
accepts  the  responsibility  of  providing  the  leadership  that  will  coordinate 
established  industrial  research  with  related  programs  in  the  Research 
Triangle  and  in  our  universities. 

STATE  PORTS 

The  State  Ports  at  Wilmington  and  Morehead  City  are  of  increasing 
importance  to  all  of  North  Carolina.  This  is  particularly  true  in  view  of 
prospects  for  the  developing  phosphate  industry  in  North  Carolina.  They 
provide  an  outlet  to  world  markets  for  our  farmers,  manufacturers,  pro- 
cessors and  producers  of  raw  materials.  They  put  us  very  much  in  the 
2 


32  HOUSE  JOURNAL  [Session 

import  and  export  business.  I  urge  the  General  Assembly  to  take  the 
necessary  action  to  develop  further  these  facilities  so  they  may  be  utilized 
more  fully  and  effectively. 

EMPLOYMENT    AND    JOB    OPPORTUNITY 

The  primary  purpose  of  our  efforts  in  industrial  development  and  agri- 
culture, in  business  development  and  research  and  other  economic  activity 
is  to  raise  our  per  capita  income.  We  want  everyone  to  have  a  chance  to 
make  his  own  way  in  a  competitive,  changing  society.  We  want  all  North 
Carolinians  to  enjoy  a  full,  abundant  life. 

Our  state  has  been  blessed  with  stable  and  productive  labor — manage- 
ment relations.  During  my  administration,  I  will  work  to  maintain  this 
record.  I  believe  every  man  and  woman  should  be  free  to  join  or  not  join 
a  union.  Unions  have  contributed  substantially  through  the  years  to  im- 
proving the  lot  of  the  working  man.  I  do  feel,  however,  that  unions  have 
an  obligation  to  develop  programs  that  will  attract  members  voluntarily. 
Our  right-to-work  laws  should  be   retained. 

MINIMUM   WAGE 

I  favor  fair  and  adequate  wages  for  all  North  Carolinians.  I  would 
favor  raising  the  minimum  wage  to  one  dollar  per  hour  provided  present 
exemptions  are  maintained  and  provided  that  marginal  jobs  and  businesses 
would  not  be  eliminated. 

I  recommend  you  make  a  thorough  study  of  the  situation  before  any 
change  is  proposed  in  our  minimum  wage  law. 

FEDERAL-STATE    PROGRAMS 

It  is  encouraging  that  the  new  federal-state  programs  such  as  the  Ap- 
palachia  Bill  and  the  Economic  Opportunity  Act  place  strong  emphasis  on 
the  role  and  responsibility  of  state  government. 

We  must  be  prepared  to  use  these  federal  programs  wisely  for  the  benefit 
of  our  people.  This  will  require  careful  planning,  competent  staff  and  the 
full  cooperation  of  local  government  and  others  concerned.  As  the  state 
needs  are  clarified  in  the  coming  months,  I  shall  ask  your  consideration 
and  support  for  additional  state  funds  or  state  programs  if  they  are  re- 
quired to  implement  new  federal  legislation. 

STATE  EMPLOYEES 

An  important  factor  in  the  operation  of  economical  and  efficient  state 
government  is  qualified,  experienced,  dedicated  personnel.  North  Carolina 
has  been  and  is  today  fortunate  in  having  such  employees.  To  insure  this 
quality  of  personnel,  it  is  necessary  to  provide  more  adequate  compensation 
for  our  employees. 

In  the  interest  of  holding  and  attracting  well  qualified  personnel  and 
in  recognition  of  the  rise  in  the  cost  of  living  and  the  quality  of  past  serv- 
ices, I  recommend  a  ten  per  cent  pay  increase  for  all  state  employees  sub- 


1965]  HOUSE  JOURNAL  33 

ject  to  the  Personnel  Act.  I  further  recommend  that  a  study  be  made  of 
per  diem  allowances,  travel  compensation,  and  longevity  pay  provisions 
to  ascertain  if  they  are  adequate. 

I  am  confident  that  state  employees  will  cooperate  in  seeking  to  improve 
efficiency  in  state  government.  Each  employee  must  set  a  personal  goal 
of  giving  a  day's  work  for  a  day's  pay.  Every  department  and  agency 
can  seek  ways  of  improving  its  own  performance. 

As  one  example,  I  recommend  the  General  Assembly  closely  review  the 
new  state  positions  created  in  recent  years  and  those  being  requested  this 
year.  I  am  told  there  are  now  two  thousand  job  vacancies  in  state  govern- 
ment and  that  some  of  these  have  been  unfilled  for  some  time.  I  urge 
your  careful  consideration  of  this  matter  and  the  elimination  of  any  of 
these  positions  that  are  unnecessary. 

HIGHWAY  SAFETY 

North  Carolina  has  made  tremendous  progress  in  many  areas.  This  has 
not  been  true  in  the  area  of  highway  safety,  however.  We  have  failed  to 
curb  the  deaths,  injuries  and  property  damage  on  our  highways. 

In  1964,  highway  accidents  killed  1,575  people  in  North  Carolina.  This 
was  an  increase  of  194  persons  over  the  year  1963.  There  were  injured 
on  our  highways  50,000  people.  There  were  80,164  motor  vehicle  accidents. 
On  our  highways  there  was  economic  loss  reported  in  the  amount  of 
$283,500,000.  This  amounts  to  one  person  being  killed  on  our  highways 
every  five  hours;  one  person  being  injured  every  eleven  minutes;  one  acci- 
dent occurring  every  six  minutes;  and  an  economic  loss  to  our  state  of 
$776,000  a  day. 

These  problems  have  outgrown  any  state  agency.  I  propose  to  make 
highway  safety  a  direct  responsibility  of  the  Governor's  Office.  The  1963 
General  Assembly  created  the  Governor's  Coordinating  Committee  on  High- 
way Safety."  The  purpose  of  this  committee  was  to  bring  together  all 
existing  governmental  agencies  and  others  to  discuss  and  find  ways  to 
make  our  highways  safer. 

This  committee  has  already  met  in  my  office  and  as  a  result  of  this 
conference  I  have  asked  the  State  Highway  Commission  to  have  its  Traffic 
Engineering  Department  immediately  make  a  thorough  re-analysis  of  all 
our  accident  locations.  This  analysis  will  cover  our  entire  72,000  mile  high- 
way system.  There  is  already  under  way  a  study  to  determine  the  location 
and  type  of  sub-standard  and  non-uniform  traffic  signal  installations. 

I  have  directed  the  State  Highway  Patrol  to  redouble  its  efforts  to  enforce 
motor  vehicle  laws  vigorously,  fairly  and  impartially.  The  Highway  Patrol 
also  has  been  directed  to  concentrate  its  manpower  and  equipment  on  our 
public  highways  and  roads.  There  will  be  a  re-examination  of  administra- 
tive procedure  which  might  be  eliminated  or  revised  to  permit  more  active 
patrolling  of  the  highways. 

I  urge  all  of  our  courts  to  cooperate  in  the  program  to  halt  death, 
injury  and  destruction  of  property  on  our  public  highways  and  roads.  I 
now  ask  the  judges  and  prosecuting  attorneys  of  the  various  courts  to  try 


34  HOUSE  JOURNAL  [Session 

to  plan  their  dockets  to  allow  troopers  to  spend  as  much  time  as  possible 
on  the  highways. 

In  the  near  future  I  want  to  come  back  before  this  General  Assembly 
to  make  specific  recommendations  on  legislative  changes  or  new  laws  which 
we  feel  necessary  to  curb  highway  bloodshed.  Today,  however,  I  have  one 
recommendation:  I  recommend  that  you  enact  a  periodic  automobile  inspec- 
tion law.  Studies  indicate  that  a  reasonable  motor  vehicle  inspection  statute 
can  bring  an  immediate  reduction  in  the  number  of  motor  vehicle  accidents. 

If  I  were  to  call  upon  any  person  to  lend  me  his  total  time  and  energy 
to  prevent  the  death  of  another  human  being,  I  believe  that  he  would 
immediately  volunteer  his  time  and  ability.  If  I  were  to  ask  any  member 
of  this  General  Assembly  to  join  with  me  to  save  one  life,  I  believe  you 
would  do  so  gladly.  What  I  am  really  asking  this  General  Assembly  to 
do  is  join  with  me  in  saving  thousands  of  lives. 

I  now  call  upon  the  members  of  this  General  Assembly,  every  state  em- 
ployee, every  person  connected  with  the  courts  of  this  state  and  most  of 
all,  every  person  in  North  Carolina,  to  lend  me  their  aid  and  their  assistance 
to  stop  this  needless  and  awful  toll.  When  the  people  of  this  state  demand 
that  we  form  a  climate  for  highway  safety,  we  will  succeed  in  stopping 
death  and  destruction  on  our  highways. 

If  you  will  go  into  the  halls  of  any  hospital  in  this  state,  you  will  find 
beds  filled  with  human  beings  who  are  maimed  and  broken  for  life  because 
of  traffic  accidents.  And,  when  we  consider  the  toll  of  the  dead  which 
continues  even  as  I  speak  to  you,  I  think  you  will  agree  that  insofar  as 
this  problem  is  concerned,  the  hour  is  indeed  late. 

The  State  of  North  Carolina  has  more  activities,  more  programs,  and 
more  services  than  I  can  possibly  mention  or  discuss  in  this  message. 
Any  omission  or  failure  to  mention  one  of  these  services  does  not  mean 
that  I  think  any  less  of  its  importance  or  its  assigned  responsibility  in 
state  government.  In  this  message  I  have  attempted  to  outline  those  major 
areas  in  which  my  administration  will  attempt  to  make  primary  contribu- 
tions during  the  next  four  years.  I  also  shall  have  additional  messages 
which  I  may  submit  for  your  consideration  during  this  session. 

It  is  our  joint  responsibility  to  carry  forward  programs  and  services 
which  are  of  lasting  value  to  the  people  of  North  Carolina,  to  nurture  them 
and  see  that  they  obtain  the  financial  support  which  they  must  have.  There 
are  always  hard  appraisals  to  be  made  in  many  basic  areas  of  state  service. 
It  is  our  inescapable  responsibility  to  ask  questions,  to  re-examine  existing 
programs  and  to  determine  what  value  they  may  have  for  the  next  two 
years,  and  in  the  years  beyond.  To  carry  out  my  job  as  Governor,  I  shall 
seek  the  best  advice  I  can  find,  always  placing  the  public  interest  foremost 
among  all  considerations. 

Again  I  say,  North  Carolina  stands  at  this  moment  on  the  threshold  of 
greatness,  looking  toward  an  era  of  unprecedented  prosperity  and  growth. 
To  meet  the  challenge  of  1965  and  the  years  ahead,  each  of  us  must  con- 
tribute the  best  we  have  to  offer.  With  your  understanding,  your  guidance 
and  your  support,  we  can  realize  this  dream  for  a  greater  North  Carolina. 


1965]  HOUSE  JOURNAL  35 

It  is  also  my  hope  that  every  man  and  woman  in  our  state  will  share  in 
this  endeavor.  We  want  them  to  feel  that  they  can  make  a  contribution,  no 
matter  how  small,  to  the  building  of  a  better  North  Carolina. 

With  the  help  of  Divine  Guidance,  we  shall  build  a  great  and  good  com- 
munity, representing  the  hopes,  the  dreams  and  the  aspirations  of  all  our 
people.  Let  us  begin  that  task  with  confidence  and  faith  in  the  great  state 
we  are  privileged  to  serve."

Assembly  dissolves,  the  Senate  repairs  to  its  Chambers,  and  the  House

1965]  HOUSE  JOURNAL  65 

(b)  A  motion  to  reconsider  shall  be  determined  by  a  majority  vote,  ex-

Rule  18.  Motion  to  Postpone  Indefinitely.  A  motion  to  postpone  in- 
definitely is  always  in  order  except  when  a  motion  to  adjourn  or  to  lay 
on  the  table  is  before  the  House;  however,  after  one  motion  to  postpone 
indefinitely  has  been  decided,  another  motion  to  postpone  indefinitely  shall 
not  be  allowed  at  the  same  stage  of  the  bill  or  proposition.  When  a  question 
has  been  postponed  indefinitely,  the  same  shall  not  be  acted  on  again  during 
the  session,  except  upon  a  two-thirds  vote. 

THE   PREVIOUS   QUESTION 

Rule  19.  Previous  Questions.  The  previous  question  may  be  called  only 
by  the  member  submitting  the  report  on  the  bill  or  other  matter  under  con- 
sideration, by  the  member  introducing  the  bill  or  other  matter  under  con- 
sideration, or  by  the  member  in  charge  of  the  measure,  who  shall  be 
designated  by  the  chairman  of  the  committee  reporting  the  same  to  the 
House  at  the  time  the  bill  or  other  matter  under  consideration  is  reported 
to  the  House  or  taken  up  for  consideration. 

Rule  20.  Form  and  Effect  of  Previous  Question,  (a)  The  previous 
question  shall  be  as  follows:  "Shall  the  main  question  now  be  put?"  When 
the  call  for  the  previous  question  has  been  decided  in  the  affirmative  by  a 
majority  vote  of  the  House,  the  "main  question"  is  on  the  passage  of  the 
bill,  resolution  or  other  matter  under  consideration,  including  all  pending 
amendments.  If  amendments  are  pending,  the  question  shall  be  taken 
upon  such  amendments  in  inverse  order. 

(b)  The  call  for  the  previous  question  shall  preclude  all  motions,  amend- 
ments and  debate,  except  the  motion  to  adjourn  made  prior  to  the  deter- 
mination of  the  previous  question.  Should  the  motion  to  adjourn  be  made 
prior  to  the  determination  of  the  previous  question  the  House  will  vote  first 
on  the  motion  to  adjourn  and  then,  if  the  motion  to  adjourn  fails,  the  mem- 
bers will  vote  on  the  call  for  the  previous  question. 

(c)  If  the  previous  question  is  decided  in  the  negative,  the  main  ques- 
tion remains  under  debate. 


Rule  21.  Stating  Questions,  (a)  The  Speaker  shall  rise  to  put  a  question. 

(b)  Questions  shall  be  put  in  this  form,  namely,  "Those  in  favor  (as  the 
question  may  be)  will  say  'Aye',"  and  after  the  affirmation  voice  has  been 
expressed,  "Those  opposed  will  say  'No'." 

(c)  Any  member  may  call  for  a  question  to  be  divided  into  two  or  more 
propositions  to  be  voted  on  separately,  and  the  Speaker  shall  determine 
whether  the  question  admits  of  such  a  division. 

Rule  22.  Determining  Questions.  Unless  otherwise  provided  by  the 
Constitution  of  North  Carolina,  all  questions  shall  be  determined  by  the 
members  present  and  voting.

(b)  Every  member  who  is  in  the  hall  of  the  House  when  the  question  is

for  special  reasons  shall  excuse  him,  and  no  application  to  be  excused  from 
voting  or  to  explain  a  vote  shall  be  entertained  unless  made  before  the  call 
of  the  roll. 

Rule  25.  Voting  by  Absentees,  (a)  No  member  shall  vote  on  any  ques- 
tion when  he  was  not  present  when  the  question  was  put  by  the  Speaker, 
except  by  the  consent  of  the  House. 

(b)  If  any  member  is  necessarily  absent  on  temporary  business  of  the

stitute a  quorum  of  that  committee  for  the  transaction  of  business.

Committee  may  in  its  discretion  reserve  the  right  to  vote  separately.

by  the  Chief  Page.  If  the  bill  is  passed  by  the  House,  the  Chief  Clerk  shall

mendation that  it  be  passed,  the  bill  shall  be  placed  on  the  favorable 
calendar. 

(b)  Report  Without  Prejudice.  When  a  committee  reports  a  bill  with- 
out prejudice,  the  bill  shall  be  placed  on  the  favorable  calendar. 

(c)  Unfavorable  Report.  When  a  committee  reports  a  bill  with  the 
recommendation  that  it  be  not  passed,  and  no  minority  report  accompanies

recommendation  that  it  be  not  passed,  but  it  is  accompanied  by  a  minority 
report  signed  by  at  least  one-fourth  of  the  members  of  the  committee  who 
were  present  and  voting  when  the  bill  was  considered  in  committee,  the 
question  before  the  House  shall  be:  "The  adoption  of  the  minority  report."

may  direct.

order  they  stand  upon  the  Calendar;  but  the  Committee  on  Rules  may  at 
any  time  arrange  the  order  of  precedence  in  which  bills  may  be  considered.

THE  BUDGET  MESSAGE 
THE  HONORABLE  DAN  K.  MOORE 
GOVERNOR  OF  NORTH  CAROLINA 

Mr.  Presideint,  Mr.  Speaker,  and  Members  of  the  General  Assembly  of 
North   Carolina : 

It  is  my  responsibility  as  Governor  to  give  you  my  recommendations  and 
comments  on  the  1965-67  State  Budget  as  proposed  by  Governor  Terry 
Sanford  and  the  Advisory  Budget  Commission.  As  you  know,  the  General 
Statutes  require  the  outgoing  Governor  to  prepare  and  submit  budget  recom- 
mendations to  the  General  Assembly,  and,  thus,  you  understand  that  this 
budget  is  not  the  work  of  my  Administration.  It  is  my  duty  to  advise  you 
on  how  I  think  the  budget  can  and  should  meet  the  needs  of  our  people  for 
the  next  two  years. 

Since  I  delivered  my  Legislative  Message  on  February  4,  I  have  made  an 
intensive  study  of  the  entire  budget.    I  have  spent  many  hours  with  budget 


1965]  HOUSE  JOURNAL  207 

and  fiscal  officials.   The  time  so  spent,  in  my  opinion,  will  considerably  lessen 
your  labors  in  arriving  at  a  proper  budget. 

In  addition,  I  have  considered  many  budget  requests  and  proposals  which 
are  not  included  in  this  present  budget.  A  great  deal  of  my  time  has  been 
devoted  to  listening  and  talking  with  legislators,  and  a  wide  range  of  the 
people  representing  public  schools,  higher  education,  health,  welfare,  eco- 
nomic development,  highways,  utilities,  transportation,  communication,  and 
many  other  areas  of  state  governmental  service.  I  was  impressed  with  the 
genuine  concern  and  the  sincere  interest  of  these  people  who  seek  to  promote 
many  and  varied  programs  and  projects.  I  share  most  of  their  concerns 
and  recognize  the  many  unmet  needs  which  were  presented. 

We  as  elected  officials  are  confronted  with  the  task  of  constructing  a 
balanced  state  budget  which,  in  our  judgment,  will  make  the  greatest  con- 
tribution to  our  state  for  the  next  two  years  within  available  revenues.  As 
you  know,  I  campaigned  vigorously  for  this  office  with  the  full  understand- 
ing that  I  would  not  recommend  any  tax  increases.  Many  of  you  did  likewise 
in  your  campaigns  for  the  General  Assembly.  Therefore,  my  recommenda- 
tions are  made  with  the  belief  that  there  will  be  no  new  taxes  enacted  by 
this  General  Assembly. 

At  the  same  time,  in  view  of  the  very  heavy  demands  upon  all  available 
tax  resources,  I  must  reluctantly  conclude  and  recommend  that  you  not 
make  any  tax  reductions  at  this  session.  We  will  need  every  tax  dollar 
available  to  meet  the  genuine  needs  for  state  governmental  services  during 
the  next  two  years. 

I  have  been  impressed  with  the  vigorous  and  vocal  support  which  the 
advocates  of  education,  welfare,  etc.,  give  to  their  causes.  We  must 
remember  that  economic  wealth  must  be  created,  through  the  efforts  of 
our  people,  before  it  produces  the  tax  revenues  we  need  to  pay  for  in- 
creased state  spending  and  services.  I  hope  that  all  advocates  of  more 
services  will  support  with  equal  vigor  all  local,  county  and  state  efforts  to 
develop  new  and  expanded  industries,  more  productive  businesses,  diversified 
agriculture  and  other  enterprises. 

If  you  agree  with  me  that  taxes  should  not  be  increased,  then  it  is 
clear  that  firm  priorities  must  be  followed  in  the  construction  of  our  1965-67 
budget.  We  may  not  wish  to  choose  between  many  good  and  worthy  pro- 
grams. It  is  not  easy  to  say  that  one  program  deserves  more  attention 
than  another,  and  yet,  that  is  exactly  what  we  must  do.  The  results  of 
your  deliberations  in  adopting  the  budget  will  not  fully  satisfy  the  require- 
ments of  all  state  agencies  and  institutions,  but  it  is  your  responsibility 
to  determine  how  available  funds  can  be  most  wisely  spent  at  this  time.  I 
have  every  confidence  in  your  ability  to  do  the  job.  I  shall  help  you  in  any 
way  that  I  can. 

My  message  is  an  attempt  to  assist  in  your  deliberations  by  giving  you, 
upon  the  best  advise  available,  my  major  program  recommendations.  I 
also  shall  give  you  the  best  available  estimate  of  the  amount  of  budgetary 
resources  which  I  think  will  be  available  for  you  to  appropriate  in  1965-67. 


208  HOUSE  JOURNAL  [Session 

It  is  my  hope  that  you  will  be  able,  through  the  maintenance  of  sound 
fiscal  policies,  to  move  forward  towards  the  realization  of  our  goals-  All 
constructive  legislation  is  a  product  of  compromise,  but  the  reaching  of  a 
consensus  through  give  and  take  does  not  mean  that  we  surrender  our  goals. 

Before  I  outline  my  specific  recommendations,  I  would  like  to  express 
appreciation  to  the  General  Assembly  for  its  prompt  and  thorough  con- 
sideration of  legislation  which  will  authorize  a  $300  million  road  bond  issue, 
subject  to  the  vote  of  the  people,  and  which  will  enable  my  Administration 
to  reorganize  the  State  Highway  Commission.  May  I  also  commend  you 
for  selecting  Charlotte  College  as  the  next  campus  of  the  Consolidated 
University  of  North  Carolina.  I  think  this  expansion  will  mean  much  for 
North  Carolina  in  the  years  ahead. 

After  careful  consideration  of  the  recommended  budget  and  the  estimated 
revenues  which  will  be  available  for  the  next  biennium,  I  recommend  that 
you  take  these  specific  steps  to  meet  the  most  pressing  needs  of  the  public- 
schools. 

As  the  first  step,  I  recommend  that  class  size  be  reduced  by  three  students 
in  grades  one,  two  and  three.  Motivation  for  learning  must  be  instilled 
in  a  child  during  his  first  school  years,  and  this  motivation  and  early  train- 
ing can  best  be  provided  in  smaller  classes.  Therefore,  I  recommend  that 
an  additional  1,472  new  teachers  be  placed  in  our  first  three  grades,  at  a 
cost  of  $16,101,065,  which  includes  retirement,  social  security  and  sick 
leave.  The  "B"  Budget  recommendation  would  have  reduced  class  size 
by  one  student  in  all  eight  elementary  grades  at  a  cost  of  $11,503,868.  Thus, 
my  recommendation  would  require  only  an  additional  $4,597,197  over  the 
budget  recommendations  proposed. 

This  reduction  in  classroom  load  by  three  in  the  first  three  grades  will 
be  a  great  benefit  to  our  school  children  in  their  most  formative  years,  en- 
abling our  teachers  to  give  more  individual  attention  to  the  needs  of  each 
child. 

If  revenues  should  increase  beyond  present  estimates,  I  would  recom- 
mend that  the  General  Assembly  seriously  consider  reducing  the  number  of 
students  per  teacher  by  one  for  grades  four  through  eight,  as  recommended 
in  the  present  "B"  Budget.  This  would  provide  637  additional  new  teachers 
at  a  cost  of  $6,972,552,  which  includes  retirement,  social  security  and  sick 
leave. 

As  the  second  step,  I  recommend  salary  increases  for  public  school  instruc- 
tional personnel  who  are  paid  from  the  nine  months'  school  fund,  at  the 
rate  of  5  per  cent,  to  be  effective  July  1,  1965,  at  a  cost  for  the  biennium 
of  $24,823,455.  I  recommend  an  additional  5  per  cent  increase,  to  be  effec- 
tive for  the  second  year  of  the  biennium,  at  an  additional  cost  to  the 
nine  months'  school  fund  of  $12,499,930.  The  total  cost  of  both  these  in- 
creases for  the  biennium,  to  be  paid  from  the  nine  months'  school  fund, 
would  require  $37,323,385,  including  retirement  and  social  security.  The 
recommendations  of  the  "B"  Budget  provide  for  salary  increases  of  $15 
per  month  beginning  the  second  year  of  the  biennium  at  a  cost  of  $6,738,380. 
Thus,  the  increases  which  I  recommend  would  actually  require  an  additional 


1965]  HOUSE  JOURNAL  209 

$30,585,005  over  the  budget  recommendations  for  instructional  salaries  in 
the  public  schools. 

I  also  recommend  comparable  salary  increases  for  teachers  of  vocational 
education.  Funds  to  support  these  salary  increases  can  be  provided  by 
redirecting  non-state  funds  for  vocational  education,  which  are  now  included 
in  the  recommended  "B"  Budget. 

The  third  step  which  I  recommend  would  provide  for  85  additional  reme- 
dial teachers.  They  would  teach  children  suffering  speech  and  hearing 
difficulties,  those  who  suffer  from  crippling  physical  impairment,  those  who 
are  visually  handicapped,  and  those  children  who  are  hospitalized,  or  who 
are  not  physically  able  to  attend  public  school.  While  their  number  is 
small,  these  children  must  not  be  neglected  by  our  public  schools  and  their 
needs  are  just  as  important  as  those  of  other  children.  I,  therefore,  recom- 
ment  an  appropriation  of  $930,394,  which  includes  retirement,  social  security 
and  sick  leave,  for  the  biennium  to  meet  this  need. 

There  are  presently  604  full-time  and  part-time  guidance  counselors  em- 
ployed in  our  schools.  They  are  paid  from  federal  funds  provided  by  the 
National  Defense  Education  Act,  from  state  funds,  and  from  local  supple- 
ments to  these  funds.  Their  work  is  of  great  value  to  all  our  children, 
and  I  urge  that  local  school  units  be  encouraged  to  use  more  of  these  skilled 
services. 

As  you  recall  from  my  Legislative  Message,  my  fourth  recommendation 
involved  the  restoration  of  the  continuing  contract  for  our  public  school 
teachers.  No  additional  funds  are  required  to  carry  out  this  recommenda- 
tion, but  I  strongly  recommend  that  these  contracts  be  made  available  to 
our  teachers. 

Our  public  school  principals  need  to  have  an  extended  term  of  employ- 
ment so  that  they  will  serve  and  receive  salary  for  a  period  of  ten  and  a 
quarter  to  eleven  months  each  school  year,  depending  upon  the  size  and 
type  of  the  school.  As  my  fifth  step,  I  recommend  the  extension  of  the  term 
of  our  public  school  principals.    This  would  require  an  additional  $633,910. 

To  achieve  my  sixth  step,  I  recommend  that  the  state  appropriate 
$3,381,416  for  purchase  of  supplemental  elementary  school  books,  based 
upon  $2  per  elementary  student,  which  will  eliminate  these  book  fees.  The 
elimination  of  all  school  and  book  fees  would  require  a  total  appropriation  of 
at  least  $13,121,348,  but  I  believe  that  the  General  Assembly  should  take  this 
positive  action  on  elementary  school  book  fees  at  this  time.  This  would  be 
a  clear  indication  of  your  intent  to  prohibit  elementary  supplementary  school 
book  fees,  and  to  relieve  students  and  parents  of  the  burden  of  paying  all 
school  and  book  fees  at  the  earliest  possible  time. 

My  seventh,  and  final,  recommended  step  in  assistance  to  public  education 
would  be  to  remove  hunger  from  the  classroom.  You  cannot  teach  a  hungry 
child;  nourishment  for  the  body  is  an  absolute  prerequisite  for  nourishment 
of  the  mind.  We  have  tried  a  new  experiment  in  the  school  lunch  program 
which  has  already  shown  astonishing  results.  By  adjusting  the  allocation 
of  Federal  funds  for  school  lunches,  87  schools  in  economically  depressed 
areas  were  given  increased  funds  to  provide  lunch  for  needy  children.  With- 


210  HOUSE  JOURNAL  [Session 

in  two  months,  marked  improvement  in  attendance  and  participation  at 
these  schools  was  apparent.  The  number  of  lunches  served  increased  47 
per  cent.    School  attendance  improved  10  per  cent. 

There  are  now  141  schools  in  North  Carolina  where  economic  conditions 
prevent  sufficient  local  support  and  do  not  allow  full  participation  in  the 
present  program.  Less  than  40  per  cent  of  the  children  in  these  schools 
participate.  Under  Title  I  of  the  new  aid  to  Elementary  and  Secondary 
Education  bill  now  before  Congress,  sufficient  federal  funds  may  become 
available  to  meet  the  needs  of  these  schools —  plus  additional  assistance  to 
all  North  Carolina  children  whose  families  earn  less  than  $2,000  per  year. 
As  you  know,  the  state  has  never  given  financial  support  to  the  school 
lunch  program.  However,  if  additional  federal  assistance  does  not  mate- 
rialize in  this  session  of  Congress,  I  recommend  that  the  General  Assembly 
appropriate  $808,732  to  provide  state  support  for  school  lunch  programs 
in  these  schools  having  the  greatest  need. 

We  should  encourage  those  counties  that  are  not  currently  taking  ad- 
vantage of  the  surplus  food  program  for  needy  families  to  participate  so 
that  the  children  and  other  members  of  the  family  can  get  three  nutritious 
meals  seven  days  a  week. 

One  major  goal  of  my  legislative  program  is  a  10  per  cent  salary  increase 
for  all  state  employees  under  the  Personnel  Act.  It  takes  qualified,  expe- 
rienced and  dedicated  people  to  operate  our  state  government.  In  my 
opinion,  the  best  way  to  maintain  the  quality  of  personnel  and  to  attract 
well  qualified  people  in  today's  highly  competitive  manpower  market  is  to 
use  the  "across  the  board"  method.  It  gives  a  substantial  increase  to  all 
employees,  including  the  lowest  paid  and  those  career  employees,  many  of 
them  technically  trained,  that  are  the  heart  and  core  of  our  state  govern- 
ment. The  total  cost  of  this  raise,  including  social  security  and  retirement, 
is  estimated  to  be  $36,124,046  with  $12,131,764  coming  from  the  highway 
fund;  $4,511,634  coming  from  special  funds,  and  $19,480,648  coming  from 
the  general  fund. 

Since  the  State  Personnel  Act  was  adopted  in  1949,  the  State  of  North 
Carolina  has  established,  at  considerable  cost  in  money  and  time,  a  system 
of  classified  state  positions  with  a  standard  salary  scale  commensurate  to 
the  duties  and  responsibilities  of  each  job  involved.  To  provide  a  fair  and 
equitable  salary  increase  for  all  state  employees  under  this  Personnel  Act, 
an  "across-the-board"  percentage  increase  is  the  only  fair  and  equitable 
method  to  raise  and  adjust  salaries  at  the  same  time  by  legislative  enact- 
ment. The  need  for  an  increase  is  just  as  urgent  for  the  long-time  career 
employee  making  $5,000  as  it  is  for  the  new  state  employee  who  is  beginning 
employment  at  $2,800.  From  the  standpoint  of  the  state  as  an  employer,  it 
is  much  harder  to  fill  the  middle  and  upper  salary  bracket  job  with  a 
qualified  person  than  it  is  the  lower  salary  position  where  applicants  are 
many  and  the  turnover  is  more  rapid.  Often  the  state  must  attempt  to 
recruit  these  "middle  management"  people  from  the  ranks  of  private  in- 
dustry where  salaries  and  benefits  are  higher  than  those  offered  by  state 
government. 


1965]  HOUSE  JOURNAL  211 

Since  1957,  state  employees  have  received  legislative  salary  increases  of 
approximately  10.8  per  cent  as  compared  with  an  approximate  26  per  cent 
legislative  salary  increase  for  public  school  teachers.  I  believe  all  of  these 
increases  were  necessary,  but,  in  fairness  to  the  state  employees,  it  is  ob- 
vious that  they  have  not  received  the  same  consideration  as  our  school 
teachers.  In  the  last  General  Assembly,  state  employees  received  a  legisla- 
tive increase  of  $10  per  month  as  compared  with  $15  per  month  for  teachers 
for  the  first  year.  In  addition,  the  teachers  received  another  $10  per  month 
for  the  second  year  while  the  state  employees  received  nothing  additional. 
You  have  already  heard  my  recommendation  for  substantial  increases  for 
school  instructional  personnel  for  each  year  of  the  next  biennium. 

In  view  of  the  continuing  rise  in  the  cost  of  living,  and  the  vital  need  to 
retain  competent,  efficient  state  employees,  I  believe  that  a  10  per  cent 
pay  increase  for  all  state  employes  under  the  State  Personnel  Act  is  clearly 
justified. 

The  State  Department  of  Conservation  and  Development  must  keep  North 
Carolina  in  the  forefront  of  modern  industrial  growth  and  development. 
As  I  mentioned  earlier,  we  must  create  economic  growth  which  provides 
more  jobs,  more  tax  revenues  and  a  higher  per  capita  income  for  our  people. 
To  provide  a  closer,  more  effective  relationship  between  the  Commerce  and 
Industry  Division  and  all  our  communities  and  counties,  I  suggested  during 
my  campaign  that  an  industrial  development  representative  from  the  De- 
partment of  Conservation  and  Development  be  placed  in  each  Congressional 
District.  After  considerable  study,  I  now  believe  that  these  services  can 
best  be  provided  by  five  regional  offices  established  by  Conservation  and 
Development  across  the  state  from  which  trained  staff  members  in  industrial 
development  and  community  planning  can  be  available  to  assist  the  economic 
growth  of  each  community  and  county.  I  believe  this  extension  of  present 
services  can  be  accomplished  primarily  with  existing  personnel.  To  establish 
these  new  offices  on  a  regional  basis  would  require  an  appropriation  of 
$75,000  for  the  next  biennium. 

In  my  Legislative  Message,  I  recommended  the  immediate  establishment 
of  two  additional  alcoholic  rehabilitation  centers — one  in  the  eastern  part 
of  the  state  and  the  other  in  the  western  part.  I  feel  strongly  the  need  for 
these  centers,  and  I  am  hopeful  that  from  the  Capital  Improvement  Budget 
the  General  Assembly  can  find  sufficient  funds  to  provide  them. 

The  recommended  budget  calls  for  total  expenditures  of  $2,071,524,286 
with  $1,099,512,488  being  appropriated  from  the  general  fund.  In  keeping 
with  the  trend  of  recent  bienniums,  this  is  the  largest  budget  ever  recom- 
mended for  the  consideration  of  the  General  Assembly.  It  reflects  the  normal 
growth  of  such  vital  governmental  services  as  public  schools,  community 
colleges,  higher  education,  public  welfare,  health,  public  safety  and  regula- 
tion, correction,  highways,  natural  resources  and  recreation,  agriculture, 
employment  security,  retirement  and  pensions,  and  debt  service.  This  budget 
report  also  reflects  the  tremendous  amount  of  hard  work  and  careful  con- 
sideration which  obviously  was  given  by  the  members  of  the  Advisory 
Budget  Commission,  who  represent  the  General  Assembly,  the  State  of 
North  Carolina  and  the  people  of  our  state. 


212  HOUSE  JOURNAL  [Session 

Now  that  we  are  farther  along  in  the  fiscal  year,  with  long-term  trends 
becoming  more  and  more  apparent,  we  are  able  to  project  the  amount  of 
the  state's  budgetary  resources  with  a  much  greater  degree  of  accuracy 
then  heretofore.  From  information  coming  in  to  us  from  the  Commissioner 
of  Revenue,  the  State  Treasurer,  the  State  Budget  Officer,  and  the  Director 
of  Tax  Research,  we  are  now  able  to  predict  that  these  resources  will  exceed 
previous  estimates  used  by  the  Advisory  Budget  Commission. 

The  economy  of  the  state  continues  on  the  rise  and  tax  collections  con- 
tinue to  improve.  In  view  of  these  healthy  conditions,  the  Commissioner  of 
Revenue's  new  estimates  of  general  fund  tax  revenues  are  $480,381,366  for 
the  present  fiscal  year;  $516,505,218  for  1965-66;  and  $537,070,000  for 
1966-67.  These  projections  amount  to  $43,005,780  more  than  the  estimates 
used  by  the  Advisory  Budget  Commission. 

Reversions  represent  appropriations  which  are  not  spent,  and,  therefore, 
are  another  source  of  funds  to  be  considered  for  the  next  biennium.  It  is 
difficult  to  determine  the  amount  of  1964-65  reversions  until  the  accounts 
are  closed  at  the  end  of  the  fiscal  year.  The  State  Budget  Officer  now  esti- 
mates that  General  Fund  revisions  for  fiscal  1964-65  will  amount  to 
$14,800,000,  all  of  which  will  remain  with  the  State  Treasurer  as  a  part  of 
the  beginning  1965-67  credit  balance,  and  thus  be  available  for  reappropria- 
tion  by  the  General  Assembly.  This  revised  estimate  is  $2,800,000  more 
than  the  estimate  used  by  the  Advisory  Budget  Commission. 

In  addition  to  these  General  Fund  Resources  just  described,  I  am  advised 
by  the  State  Treasurer  that  by  adjusting  the  dates  of  the  principal  repay- 
ments on  the  $100,000,000  school  bond  issue  and  on  the  recommended 
$17,985,000  Legislative  Bond  issue,  the  debt  service  requirements  for  1965-67 
may  be  reduced  by  $5,261,925.  This  additional  amount  also  is  available  for 
appropriations  by  the  General  Assembly. 

In  my  Legislative  Message  I  expressed  my  concern  about  the  capital 
improvement  needs  of  our  state  agencies,  state  colleges  and  the  University. 
It  is  apparent  that  the  $34,878,785  recommended  for  capital  improvements 
during  the  next  biennium  is  not  adequate.  During  the  past  month,  I 
have  sought  to  find  other  resources  which  might  be  applied  to  this  great 
need.  I  am  pleased  to  report  the  availability  of  a  non-recurring  fund  which 
can  and  should  be  used  to  supplement  the  capital  improvement  program  for 
1965-67. 

It  has  been  called  to  my  attention  that  a  substantial  General  Fund  "wind- 
fall" has  now  resulted  from  the  installation  of  the  "pay  as  you  go"  with- 
holding individual  state  income  taxes  adopted  by  the  General  Assembly  of 
1959.  When  this  plan  was  adopted,  the  state  had  no  experience  upon  which 
to  base  its  rates  for  withholding.  It  has  to  guarantee  that  the  amount  of 
taxes  withheld  would  be  substantially  the  same  as  the  amount  of  taxes  due. 
To  insure  that  money  would  always  be  available  for  tax  refunds  due  in- 
dividuals who  overpaid  their  taxes,  the  Revenue  Department  very  properly 
set  up  a  reserve  fund  for  payment  of  these  refunds.  This  withholding  re- 
serve was  not  included,  of  course,  in  revenue  estimates  furnished  by  the 
Commissioner  of  Revenue. 


1965]  HOUSE  JOURNAL  213 

I  am  now  advised  by  all  the  officials  directly  concerned  with  the  fiscal 
affairs  of  the  State — the  Treasurer,  the  Commissioner  of  Revenue,  the  State 
Budget  Officer,  and  the  Director  of  Tax  Research — that  our  experience 
with  the  individual  withholding  tax  has  proved  the  accuracy  of  our  with- 
holding rates  and  that  the  maintenance  of  this  reserve  fund  is  no  longer 
required.    The  state  can  safely  pay  its  tax  refunds  from  current  collections. 

We  are  in  the  fortunate  position  to  realize  a  "windfall'  of  approximately 
$12,000,000  from  this  reserve  fund  at  the  end  of  this  fiscal  year.  I  have 
requested  the  Commissioner  of  Revenue  to  place  these  funds  with  the 
Treasurer  to  supplement  the  June  30,  1965,  General  Fund  credit  balance  as 
a  budgetary  resource  for  1965-67.  I  repeat,  this  is  a  nonrecurring  item 
which  should  be  used  for  capital  improvement  only.  This  will  give  us  a 
total  of  $46,878,785  in  the  General  Fund  Capital  Improvement  Budget  and 
this  amount,  with  proper  allocation,  will  meet  the  most  pressing  needs  of 
our  state. 

This  appropriation  for  capital  improvements  would  exceed  by  more  that 
$11,400,000  the  average  biennial  capital  improvements  appropriations  for 
the  last  10  years.  The  average  during  this  period  was  $35,403,657.  It 
should  be  remembered  that  during  this  ten-year  period  there  were  no  capital 
appropriations  in  1955-57  and  only  $8  million  in  1961-63. 

As  you  know,  the  state  now  has  a  $100  million  bond  issue  approved  for 
public  school  construction,  and  our  local  administrative  units  are  in  the 
process  of  issuing  approximately  $200  million  in  bonds.  In  addition,  this 
General  Assembly  has  approved  a  $300  million  road  bond  issue,  subject  to 
the  vote  of  the  people.  In  view  of  all  these  facts,  and  the  $12  million  in 
new  funds  now  available,  I  do  not  recommend  a  capital  improvements 
bond  issue  at  this  time. 

The  recommended  capital  improvements  do  not  include  any  college  dor- 
mitories. They  must  be  constructed  on  a  self-liquidating  basis.  I  share  the 
reluctance  of  the  State  Board  of  Higher  Education  in  approving  this 
approach  to  dormitory  construction,  but  do  agree  that  this  policy  is  neces- 
sary for  the  next  two  years  as  a  stop-gap  measure. 

If  you  appropriate  the  funds  for  my  program,  as  recommended,  plus 
everything  recommended  in  the  "A",  "B"  and  "C"  budgets,  this  would  cost 
approximately  $4,275,000  more  than  the  total  resources  now  available. 
Obviously,  you  and  I  know  that  we  must  adopt  a  balanced  budget,  and  I 
will  work  with  you  toward  that  end.  I  believe  the  difference  can  be  found 
in  economies  which  should  be  effected  in  the  recommended  budgets,  or  in 
additional  resources  which  may  become  available  later  in  this  session.  I 
will  work  closely  with  you  and  your  committees  in  finding  a  solution  to 
this   problem. 

As  I  stated  earlier,  all  the  budget  requests  are  worthy  of  careful  con- 
sideration and  represent  actual  needs.  In  view  of  the  limited  tax  resources 
which  are  available,  the  General  Assembly  must  give  objective  appraisal  to 
all  these  requests  and  determine  the  priorities  which  must  be  made  at  this 
time. 


214  HOUSE  JOURNAL  [Session 

As  only  one  example,  I  would  cite  the  Community  College  program  as 
a  major  area  of  activity  which  deserves  your  careful  appraisal.  Satisfactory 
progress  appears  to  have  been  made  in  this  new  Department  of  Community 
Colleges.  However,  the  General  Assembly  must  determine  the  rate  of  ac- 
celeration and  development  of  this  new  field  of  state-financed  education 
beyond  the  high  school.  It  would  be  well  to  re-examine  the  original  concept 
of  the  community  college  program  with  reference  to  geographical  locations, 
needs  to  be  met,  and  the  arrangements  for  state  support.  We  must  not  over- 
look that  North  Carolina  has  44  private  and  church-related  colleges  which 
offer  many  educational  resources  that  should  not  be  duplicated  by  state- 
financed  community  colleges. 

I  would  like  to  emphasize  that  I  believe  in  the  value  of  a  sound,  care- 
fully planned,  well-financed  community  college  program.  These  institutions, 
along  with  existing  private  and  church-related  schools,  can  expand  the 
reach  of  our  educational  system  to  many  additional  students  and  help  take 
the  pressure  off  our  state-financed,  four-year  colleges  and  the  University. 

I  am  certain  that  there  are  other  major  governmental  areas  in  the  pro- 
posed budget  where  economies  can  be  effected.  You,  as  representatives  of 
the  people,  are  free,  of  course,  to  make  your  own  appraisal,  and  evaluation 
and  assign  your  own  priorities. 

As  you  begin  your  final  study  and  consideration  on  the  1965-67  budget, 
let  me  pledge  to  you  that  my  administration  will  make  every  effort  to  see 
that  your  final  appropriations  are  spent  in  accordance  with  legislative  in- 
tent. We  shall  strive  mightily  to  achieve  new  economies  at  every  level  of 
government.  We  shall  study  the  functions  of  agencies  to  eliminate  duplica- 
tions and  unnecessary  programs.  Good  government  is  a  habit  in  North 
Carolina — and  we  expect  to  continue  and  strengthen  that  habit. 

In  my  inaugural  address,  I  visualized  a  great  future  for  our  state  within 
the  structure  of  what  I  call  the  great  and  good  community.  I  renew  here 
and  now  my  faith  in  the  vision  that  I  saw  at  the  hour  of  my  inauguration. 
We  will  not  reach  all  of  our  goals  during  this  session  of  the  General 
Assembly,  not  during  the  next,  but  we  will  move  closer  and  closer  toward 
the  great  goals  that  we  have  set.  The  broad  outlines  of  the  great  and  good 
community  are  beginning  to  come  into  sight.  As  the  years  pass  we  shall 
all  contribute  to  making  this  a  reality.  But  in  the  very  nature  of  our  society, 
our  program  will  never  be  finished,  for  the  greatest  and  the  goodness 
of  our  people  come  in  the  struggle  to  achieve  rather  than  in  satisfaction 
with  a  fancied  perfection. 

Thank  you. 

President  Scott  recognizes  Senator  Morgan  who  moves  that  the  Joint 
Assembly  dissolve.  The  Senate  repairs  to  its  Chambers  and  the  House 
resumes  consideration  of  its  business.

A  RESOLUTION  EXPRESSING  PRIDE  IN  AND  APPRECIATION  OF 
THE  CONTRIBUTION  OF  FORESTRY  TO  THE  PROGRESS  OF  THE 
STATE  OF  NORTH  CAROLINA. 

Whereas,  forestry  has  become  a  one-and-a  half  billion  dollar  industry  in 
North  Carolina,  creating  products  now  valued  in  excess  of  $1,500,000,000 
annually,  providing  annual  payrolls  of  more  than  $300,000,000  for  Tar  Heel 
wage  earners,  producing  furniture  valued  at  $450,000,000  annually,  and 
yielding  over  $95,000,000  each  year  in  cash  income  to  farmers;  and 

Whereas,  North  Carolina  is  now  first  in  the  nation  in  the  manufacture 
of  wooden  furniture,  first  in  the  nation  in  the  production  of  hardwood  ply- 
wood, and  first  in  the  South  in  lumber  production;   and 

Whereas,  North  Carolina  forestry  now  employs  approximately  twenty 
percent  of  the  State's  entire  labor  force — upwards  of  141,000  jobs — and  is 
led  only  by  tobacco  and  poultry  in  the  State's  farm  product  sales;  and 

Whereas,  these  achievements  are  noted  in  the  new  book  entitled  North 
Carolina  Lands,  a  copy  of  which  is  this  day  being  presented  to  each  member 
of  the  General  Assembly;    NOW,  THEREFORE,   BE    IT   RESOLVED: 

Section  1.  That  the  North  Carolina  General  Assembly  does  hereby  ac-

as  to  increase    per  diem  and  allowances  of  State  Boards,  etc.

is  adopted. 

The  motion  of  Representative  Zollicoffer  to  recommit  the  bill  to  the

Representative  Zollicoffer  objects  to  the  third  reading  and  the  bill  remains

STATEMENTS   BY    MEMBERS 

I  wish  to  have  my  vote  on  the  second  reading  of  H.  B.  94  recorded  as 
"Noe"  in  the  Journal. 

S/   Elton  Edwards 

I  wish  to  have  my  vote  recorded  as  'Noe"  on  H.  B.  94. 

S/  C.  W.  Phillips 

I  vote  "Noe'  on  H.  B.  94  since  career  state  employees  who  are  not  mem- 
bers of  state  boards  and  commissions  will  not  receive  any  increase  in 
travel  and  expense  allowance  under  the  provisions  of  any  bills  introduced 
to  this  date.  Furthermore,  I  think  the  increase  to  twenty  dollars  is  too 
large. 

S/  W.  R.  Britt 

I  wish  to  be  recorded  as  voting  "Noe"  on  H.  B.  94.  First  of  all,  the  bill 
has  never  been  considered  by  the  Appropriations  Committee  as  I  think  it 
should  have,  and  secondly,  this  bill  is  retroactive  to  include  members  of 
the  1965  General  Assembly.  I  do  not  consider  it  proper  that  we  should  raise 
our  own  per  diem  and  allowances. 

S/   Roberts  Jernigan,  Jr. 

This  bill  would  increase  subsistence  allowances  of  state  boards  and  com- 
missions to  $20  per  day  in  the  event  the  actual  cost  to  the  person  amounted 


1965]  HOUSE  JOURNAL  243 

to  $20.00.    This  should  also  be  made  applicable  to  all  state  employees  re- 
quired to  travel  on  business  of  the  State  in  my  opinion. 

By  the  previous  enactment  of  H.  B.  150  in  the  earlier  part  of  this  session, 
the  effect  of  H.  B.  94  is  also  to  increase  subsistence  paid  members  of  the 
General  Assembly  from  $12  per  day  to  $20  per  day.  Members  would  draw 
this  whether  subsistence  actually  cost  this  much  or  not.  I  think  this  is 
wrong.  I  do  not  believe  actual  subsistence  cost  per  day  exceeds  $15  to  $16 
per  day. 

I  opposed  this  bill  and  desire  to  be  recorded  as  voting  against  it.  I  realize 
there  are  other  costs  to  members,  such  as  stamps  and  long  distance  calls. 
If  members  should  be  compensated  for  these  expenses,  then  do  it  directly 
by  a  bill,  not  indirectly. 

If  member's  salaries  are  not  sufficient  as  set  in  the  Constitution,  then  an 
amendment  to  the  Constitution  should  be  proposed  increasing  the  amount  of 
salaries,  not  indirectly  doing  so  by  increasing  the  subsistence  allowance. 

S/     A.  A.  Zollicoffer,  Jr. 

I  would  like  for  the  Journal  to  show  that  I  voted  against  H.  B.  94  to 
increase  per  diem  and  allowances  of  state  boards,  etc. 

S/     Mary  Faye  Brumby 
Cherokee  County  Representative 

H.  B.  103,  a  bill  to  be  entitled  an  act  to  abolish  capital  punishment  for  the 
crimes  of  murder,  burglary  and  arson. 

Representative  Johnson  of  Duplin  moves  consideration  of  the  bill  be  post- 
poned indefinitely  which  motion  fails  of  adoption. 

Representative  Dolley  moves  the  bill  do  lie  on  the  table  which  motion 
fails  of  adoption. 

Representative  Messer  calls  the  previous  question  which  call  is  sustained. 

Representative  Messer  calls  for  the  ayes  and  noes. 

The  call  is  sustained. 

The  roll  is  called  and  the  bill  fails  to  pass  its  second  reading  by  the  fol- 
lowing vote.

By  Representative  Bunn : 

H.  R.  439,  a  joint  resolution  of  courtesy  and  appreciation  honoring  the 
forty-four  mothers  selected  to  represent  the  State  of  North  Carolina  this 
year  of  1965. 

Whereas,  we  are  aware  of  the  great  contribution  Mothers  always  have, 
and  still  are  making  to  the  building  of  a  better  state,  nation,  and  world. 
The  responsibility  of  training  the  children,  feeding  the  growing  bodies  and 
directing  the  spiritual  development  of  all  entrusted  to  their  care,  has  ever 
been  an  important  service  to  mankind;  and 

Whereas,  you  have  attained  recognition  in  this  high  calling  of  mother- 
hood, we  welcome  you  Mothers  to  these  legislative  halls  today  where  the 
laws  of  our  state  are  enacted.  But,  we  realize  that  those  laws  that  are  most 
binding  and  influential  on  our  lives  are  those  that  have  directed  us  through 
the  years  and  are  based,  not  only  on  justice,  but  on  that  strongest  of  all 
enforcement  agencies — a  Mother's  love;  and 

Whereas,  we  welcome  you  here  as  the  greatest  power  for  good  in  our 
land,  as  the  greatest  advocates  of  good  government,  and  the  greatest  sup- 
porters of  the  laws  that  are  enacted  here;  and 

Whereas,  we  welcome  you  as  recognized  builders  of  homes,  homes  that 
are  law  abiding  and  God-fearing;  homes  that  nurture  ideals  for  youth  and 
stand  as  a  challenge  to  those  who  through  training  and  experience  have 
found  the  road  to  true  happiness;  and 

Whereas,  we  welcome  you  because  of  your  consideration,  kindness  and 
supporting  advice  to  us,  the  men,  who  would  be  worth  little  anywhere  with- 
out them;   and 

Whereas,  it  is  the  pleasure  of  the  members  of  this  legislative  House  to 
have  you  with  us  today,  and  we  would  join  with  your  organization  in  recog- 
nizing the  honor  that  has  come  to  each  of  you  and,  through  you,  to  our 
state.  We  believe  the  words  of  the  writer  who  said:  "So  long  as  there  are 
homes  to  which  men  turn  at  close  of  day,  so  long  as  there  are  homes  where 
children  are  where  mothers  stay,  if  love  and  loyalty  and  faith  be  found 
across  these  sills,  a  stricken  nation  can  recover  from  its  gravest  ills";  Now, 
Therefore, 

Be  it  Resolved  by  the  House  of  Representatives,  the  Senate  concurring:

STATEMENT  BY   MEMBER 

North  Carolina  workers  deserve  an  honest  hour's  wage  for  an  honest 
hour's  work.  We  have  workers  in  our  state  today  whose  only  guarantee  of 
this  wage  is  the  State  Minimum  Wage  Law — a  law  that  by  any  reasonable 
standard  of  measure  is  inadequate  in  its  provisions,  a  law  that  does  not 
meet  the  basic  needs  and  demands  of  those  whose  needs  are  greatest.  By 
raising  the  minimum  to  a  reasonable  and  more  realistic  level,  we  have  the 
opportunity  of  providing  a  guarantee  more  equal  to  that  enjoyed  by  the 
vast  majority  of  our  citizens  under  federal  law. 

Minimum  wage  is  not  a  new  issue.  It  has  long  been  an  important  subject 
in  the  minds  of  Representatives  to  the  North  Carolina  General  Assembly. 
Bills  were  introduced,  but  defeated  in  7  of  the  10  sessions  before  the  citizens 
of  this  state  finally  got  a  state  minimum  wage  law  in  1959,  a  law  that  has 
benefitted  thousands  of  our  workers  in  the  five  years  it  has  been  in  effect. 

In  1959  the  Department  of  Labor  estimated  that  some  55,000  workers  were 
directly  benefitted  by  the  75^  minimum  wage  legislation  enacted  in  that 
year,  even  with  the  many  exemptions  that  were  written  in.  Exemptions  in- 
cluded establishments  employing  less  than  six  workers  (later  amended  to 
less  than  four),  a  group  of  about  6000  waitresses  and  2000  bellhops  and 
porters  whose  earnings  are  derived  mostly  from  tips;  1000  part  time  sea- 
food and  fishing  industry  workers;  1000  theatre  ushers,  doormen,  cashiers, 
and  concession  attendants,  and  800  nursing  home  employees.  An  undeter- 
mined number  of  public  and  private  hospital  employees  earning  less  than 
75c1  an  hour  were  also  exempt.  Exemptions  went  on  to  include  farm  work- 
ers, persons  under  21  employed  by  their  parents,  minors  under  16  regardless 
of  who  employs  them;  baby-sitters,  golf  caddies,  newsboys,  shoe  shine  boys, 
pin  boys   in  bowling  alleys,  part-time  student  workers,  summer  camp  em-

ployees,  salesman,  employes  on  a  commission  basis  and  employees  on  non- 
profit educational,  charitable,  and  religious  organizations  where  the  relation- 
ship of  employer  and  employee  does  not  really  exist.  And  still,  with  all 
these  exemptions  55,000  people  directly  benefitted  from  this  first  law. 

In  1959  the  earnings  of  all  workers  in  North  Carolina's  laundry  and  dry 
cleaning  industry  averaged  only  74c'  per  hour.  Yet  some  businessmen  testi- 
fied that  this  law  would  hurt  them.  I  remember  one,  a  laundry  owner,  who 
testified  in  committee  that  if  the  75<f  wage  bill  were  passed  it  would  wreck 
his  business.  Since  that  time  his  laundry  has  expanded  several  times  over 
and  he  continues  to  open  new  branches.  That's  the  kind  of  "wrecking"  all 
businesses  could  stand  mere  of. 

In  that  same  year  the  Small  Business  Committee  of  North  Carolina  was 
strong  in  its  fight  against  minimum  wage,  as  it  had  been  in  previous  years. 
Still,  less  than  3V2%  of  the  state's  business  firms  responded  to  its  call  for 
assistance  in  the  fight,  and  these  firms  employed  only  1.64%  of  all  the 
state's  covered  workers.  Thus,  not  only  employees,  but  most  employers  see 
the  value  of  minimum  wage  legislation.  Indeed,  a  large  asset  for  business- 
men is  that  it  protects  employers  who  pay  a  fair  wage  from  unfair  competi- 
tion with  other  employers  who  would  not  voluntarily  pay  reasonable  wages. 

In  1961,  two  years  later,  the  General  Assembly  expanded  coverage  of  the 
law  to  make  it  apply  to  establishments  employing  four  or  more  workers 
rather  than  six  or  more  as  it  was  enacted  in  1959.  As  amended,  the  law 
applied  to  all  non-exempt  workers  in  an  establishments,  even  if  some  of  the 
"four  or  more"  employees  in  the  business  were  exempt.  This  meant  that 
20,000  more  North  Carolinians  directly  benefitted  from  minimum  wage. 
Again  in  1963  the  law  was  expanded,  and  the  General  Assembly  increased 
the  minimum  to  85^  per  hour  in  a  compromise  move.  A  bill  which  would 
have  increased  the  minimum  to  $1.00  an  hour  passed  the  Senate,  but  was 
narrowly  defeated  in  the  House.  The  85^  minimum,  having  the  same  ex- 
emptions as  the  75<*  law,  further  increased  the  earnings  and  purchasing 
power  of  the  state's  lowest  paid  employees. 

Thirty-two  other  states  had  minimum  wage  laws  before  North  Carolina 
enacted  one,  becoming  the  only  southern  state  to  protect  workers  not  covered 
under  federal  law.  At  present,  thirty-four  states  have  minimum  wage  laws, 
twenty-one  of  which  call  for  rates  of  $1.00  per  hour  or  more. 

Furthermore,  there  is  a  federal  statute  applying  to  all  states  which  sets 
the  minimum  wage  rate  at  $1.25  and  provides  for  overtime  pay  of  not  less 
than  IV2  times  the  employer's  regular  rates.  This  applies  to  all  employees 
engaged  in  or  producing  goods  for  interstate  commerce,  some  800,000  in 
North  Carolina. 

At  present  there  is  a  gap  of  40<4  an  hour  between  the  $1.25  federal  wage 
standard  enjoyed  by  these  800,000  and  the  85<?  standard  which  is  the  sole 
protection  of  the  250,000  North  Carolinians  not  covered  by  federal  law. 
Even  if  North  Carolina  had  a  $1.00  an  hour  minimum,  a  difference  of  25<? 
would  still  exist  between  state  and  federal  wage  requirements.  But  that 
dollar  would  mean  a  lot.  The  Labor  Department  estimates  that  a  $1.00 
minimum  wage  would  bring  direct  wage  increases  to  some  50,000  of  the 


1965]  HOUSE  JOURNAL  323 

lowest  paid  workers  in  retail  and  service  businesses,  increasing  their  earn- 
ings by  around  IV^;  an  hour  per  worker  on  the  average,  giving  them  addi- 
tional purchasing  power  of  about  $150.00  per  year  per  worker,  and  increas- 
ing the  total  annual  purchasing  power  of  this  group  by  some  7V2  million 
dollars. 

And  the  Labor  Department  has  given  its  assurance  that  in  view  of  the 
prosperous  condition  of  the  state's  economy,  of  high  employment  levels,  of 
booming  construction,  and  of  high  retail  sales,  the  increase  could  bring 
nothing  but  good  effects  to  both  business  and  employment.  In  the  seven 
years  between  1958  (a  year  before  the  first  North  Carolina  minimum  wage 
law  was  enacted)  and  1963,  the  state  benefitted  from  an  increase  in  total 
retail  sales  of  1  billion,  138  million  dollars.  Per  capita  income  in  North 
Carolina  has  risen  more  than  $300.00  in  that  period — from  $1,492.00  in  1959 
to  $1,807.00  in  1963.  A  per  capita  income  of  $1,900.00  was  predicted  for 
1964  in  the  state.  North  Carolina  is  in  good  shape;  business  in  North  Caro- 
lina is  in  good  shape;  there  is  no  good  reason  why  we  can't  help  those  in 
the  lower  income  brackets  who  have  no  financial  security  other  than  the 
state  minimum  wage  law.    Indeed,  we  can't  afford  not  to  help  them. 

We  can  be  proud  of  our  minimum  wage  law.  It  helped  North  Carolina's 
most  needy  families  to  help  themselves;  it  brought  a  minimum  basic  stand- 
ard of  living  to  many  thousands  of  tarheels  who  had  never  before  had  any 
guarantee  of  a  living  wage.  But  it  is  not  enough.  In  1963  it  was  estimated 
that  had  the  minimum  wage  law  been  set  at  $1.00  then,  more  than  50,000 
workers  would  have  benefitted  a  total  amount  of  24  million  dollars  per 
year,  24  million  dollars  more  purchasing  power,  24  million  dollars  to  the 
overall  economy  of  the  state. 

The  time  is  already  late;  North  Carolina,  while  ranking  10th  in  the  na- 
tion in  number  of  workers  employed  in  manufacturing,  still  ranks  only  43rd 
in  per  capita  income.  We  now  have  an  opportunity  to  raise  those  figures. 
We  cannot  afford,  North  Carolina  cannot  afford,  to  let  that  opportunity  go 
by  again.  I  sincerely  hope  that  this  great  body  will  vote  for  and  pass 
H.  B.  100.

STATEMENT  BY   MEMBER 

I  vote  "Noe"  on  H.  B.  255  because  the  amendment  to  exclude  the  73  elec- 
tric municipalities  from  the  provisions  of  the  bill  failed.  If  this  amendment 
had  carried,  I  would  have  voted  for  H.  B.  255  because  most  of  the  remain- 
ing portions  of  the  bill  are  in  the  public  interest.  The  electric  municipalities 
were  not  parties  to  the  agreement  between  the  power  companies  and  the 
rural  electric  cooperatives.  Therefore,  I  do  not  think  the  electric  munici- 
palities should  be  affected  by  the  bill. 
April  13,  1965.

Mr.  President,  Mr.  Speaker,  Members  of  the  General  Assembly,  and  my

Highway  Safety  Program  and  that  I  will  urge  that  it  be  made  into  law. 

First,  I  must  convince  you  and  the  people  of  North  Carolina  that  there 
is  an  urgent  and  a  desperate  need  for  immediate  action. 

I  must  drive  home  to  you  that  this  is  a  matter  of  life  and  death.  A 
matter  that  just  cannot  wait  any  longer.  A  crisis  that  must  have  official  and 
complete  action.  Now.  Not  later.  Not  half-way.  Not  piece-meal  .  .  .  but  a 
total  program  which  must  not  be  delayed  any  longer. 


1965]  HOUSE  JOURNAL  347 

Shall  I  start  by  showing  you  photographs  of  dead  bodies?  I  think  not. 
You've  seen  the  smashed  cars  and  the  bloody  bodies  before  .  .  .  many  times. 
But  each  time,  the  sight  made  only  a  momentary  impression — to  be  for- 
gotten only  five  minutes  or  five  miles  later. 

How  about  these  ?  At  my  hand  is  all  that  remains  of  one  thousand,  five 
hundred,  seventy-six  human  beings.  They're  dead.  All  killed  in  a  single 
year,  last  year  on  North  Carolina  highways.  These  are  accident  reports  that 
describe  tragic  events  that  affected  thousands  besides  the  victims. 

There  are  thirty  times  this  many  who  suffered  painful,  agonizing  injury. 
The  actual  number  is  forty-nine  thousand. 

Did  those  figures  mean  anything  to  you?  Or  were  they  just  more  of  the 
same  old  numbers  we've  heard  before — and  dismissed  from  our  minds? 

Well,  then  try  these  numbers.  Listen  to  them  carefully  because  they  spell 
out  an  epidemic  more  deadly  than  disease. 

In  the  last  four  years  alone,  highway  deaths  in  our  state  have  increased 
twenty-five  percent. 

Injuries  are  up  forty-two  percent. 

Total  accidents  have  jumped  thirty-eight  percent. 

At  the  same  time,  the  number  of  vehicles  in  our  state  increased  only 
eighteen  prcent. 

These  are  not  just  the  same  old  figures.  This  is  a  runaway  that  must  be 
stopped  before  it  is  a  stampede. 

With  only  eighteen  percent  more  vehicles,  we  are  killing  twenty-five 
percent  faster. 

Injuring  forty-two  percent  faster. 

And  smashing  into  one  another  thirty-eight  percent  more  often. 

Of  course,  that's  only  the  human  loss.  The  economic  loss  involves  about 
two  hundred  ninety-three  million  dollars.  That's  about  eight  hundred  thou- 
sand dollars  a  day. 

Accept  this  as  fact!  Traffic  accidents  are  an  epidemic  .  .  .  and  they  are 
out  of  control.  On  top  of  this,  imagine  what  will  happen  as  we  add  nearly 
a  hundred  thousand  more  cars  and  drivers  each  year. 

We  must  realize  the  urgent  and  desperate  need  for  action. 

We  must  have  the  courage  to  make  laws  and  spend  the  money — without 
compromise — to  meet  this  matter  of  life  and  death,  and  control  it  now! 
Now!  .  .  .  that  our  people  may  not  die. 

What  shall  we  allow  to  stand  in  our  way? 

Can  we  wait  for  some  magic  solution  to  come  along? 

Can  we  afford  to  pat  ourselves  on  the  back  and  say,  "We  are  doing  all 


348  HOUSE  JOURNAL  [Session 

Can  we  justify  further  delay  with  empty  words  like  "inconvenience?" 

The  answer  to  all  of  these  questions  is  no! 

There  is  no  single  solution. 

We  have  not  done  all  we  can  to  protect  lives  and  property  on  the 
highways. 

We  must  not;  we  cannot  let  individual  inconvenience  block  our  determi- 
nation. Neither  you  nor  I  can  afford  to  let  our  political  ambition  or  popu- 
larity stand  in  the  way.  Our  obligation  to  the  men,  women,  and  children  of 
North  Carolina  demands  that  we  take  firm  action.  Now, 

If  the  traffic  accident  toll  stops  rising  in  North  Carolina,  it  will  come  from 
action  in  this  session  of  the  General  Assembly. 

The  program  will  be  built  on  a  foundation  of  laws.  It  will  involve  the 
cooperative  action  of  highway  engineering,  driver  licensing  and  exami- 
nation, law  enforcement,  driver  education,  driver  improvement,  motor  ve- 
hicle inspection,  research  and  the  administration  of  justice. 

All  of  these  efforts  must  be  grounded  in  the  latest  knowledge  available 
in  physics,  in  civil  engineering,  medicine  plus  psychology,  sociology  and  mass 
communications.  A  total  program  of  coordinated  action. 

We  can  stop  the  increase  in  accidents  in  North  Carolina  if  you  give  us 
the  laws.  We  cannot  wait  for  individual  drivers  to  be  shocked  into  saving 
themselves.  Only  the  people  as  citizens,  acting  through  their  elected  repre- 
sentatives, can  provide  the  tools  to  save  lives  on  our  highways. 

Here  are  our  primary  goals  to  improve  highway  safety: 

1.  We  must  obtain,  through  administrative  action  and  direction,  greater 
use  of  existing  manpower  and  resources. 

2.  We  must  make  greater  use  of  modern  knowledge  and  existing  research 
in  helping  solve  these  many  complex  problems. 

3.  With  legislative  support,  we  must  strengthen  existing  programs  and 
use  new  methods  which  have  proven  effective  in  our  state  or  elsewhere. 

4.  We  must  obtain  greater  public  understanding  and  support. 

North  Carolina  Traffic  Safety  Authority 

In  order  to  make  greater  use  of  existing  resources,  we  must  have  greater 
coordination  of  traffic  safety  efforts  among  the  various  agencies.  The  results 
will  total  more  than  the  simple  sum  of  their  individual  efforts. 

I  recommend  the  General  Assembly  create  by  formal  statute  a  coordinat- 
ing board  to  be  known  as  the  North  Carolina  Traffic  Safety  Authority. 

Its  principal  efforts  would  be: 

1.  To  develop  the  state's  action  program  for  traffic  safety. 


1965]  HOUSE  JOURNAL  349 

2.  To  provide  continuing  guidance  of  the  state's  overall  attack  on  acci- 
dents. 

3.  To  guide  the  state's  efforts  to  inform  the  people  about  traffic  accident 
prevention  programs  and  to  make  clear  the  individual  responsibilities  of 
motorists  and  citizens.  I  know  that  we  can  count  on  the  full  support  of  all 
news  media  to  make  the  most  effective  use  of  safety  information. 

Traffic  safety  in  North  Carolina  should  no  longer  be  thought  of  as  the 
providence  of  any  one  agency.  It  should  command  all  of  the  state's  resources 
and  cooperation.  This  new  relationship  must  be  fully  understood  by  every- 
one. 

Membership  of  the  Traffic  Safety  Authority  would  include :  the  Governor, 
as  Chairman;  the  Commissioners  of  Motor  Vehicles,  Insurance,  Labor  and 
Agriculture;  the  Chairmen  of  the  State  Highway  Commission,  the  Industrial 
Commission,  the  State  Board  of  Education,  and  the  Utilities  Commission; 
the  State  Superintendent  of  Public  Instruction,  the  State  Health  Director, 
the  Attorney  General;  the  President  of  the  North  Carolina  Traffic  Safety 
Council;  and  a  member  of  the  House  of  Representatives  appointed  by  the 
Speaker,  and  a  member  of  the  Senate  appointed  by  the  President  of  the 
Senate. 

University  Highway  Safety  Research  Center 

We  must  close  the  gap  which  exists  between  knowledge  created  by  re- 
search findings  and  its  use  in  saving  lives  on  our  streets  and  highways. 

We  must  harness  the  knowledge  which  is  already  available  on  the  campus- 
es of  our  colleges,  universities,  and  research  centers.  We  can  and  should 
utilize  immediately  the  knowledge  which  is  already  existing  in  the  scientific 
disciplines. 

We  need  a  central  location  with  a  small  staff  to  provide  for  the  orderly 
use  of  university  personnel  who  will  consult  with  the  North  Carolina 
Traffic  Safety  Authority  and  separate  agencies  of  state  and  local  govern- 
ment. 

Therefore,  I  recommend  the  creation  of  a  Highway  Safety  Research  Cen- 
ter within  the  University  of  North  Carolina. 

The  Center  first  would  encourage  university-wide  involvement  in  the 
state's  total  accident  prevention  effort  and  would  provide  objective  analysis 
of  our  current  safety  programs  all  across  the  board — from  driver  improve- 
ment to  public  education. 

Second,  the  Center  would  coordinate  and  participate  in  professional  train- 
ing of  the  hundreds  of  people  already  on  the  job  in  the  traffic  safety  field 
in  North  Carolina.  The  improvement  of  the  skills  and  knowledge  of  those 
already  in  the  field  would  yield  great  benefits  without  great  expense. 

Third,  the  Center  would  coordinate  all  research  in  traffic  accident  pre- 
vention in  our  colleges  and  research  centers. 


350  HOUSE  JOURNAL  [Session 

A  biennial  budget  of  one  hundred  thousand  dollars  would  be  sufficient  to 
establish  the  Center. 

Utilize  Proven  Programs 

Now  let  us  look  at  our  third  primary  goal :  to  strengthen  existing  pro- 
grams and  use  new  methods  which  have  proven  effective  in  our  state  or 
elsewhere.  To  achieve  this  goal,  we  must  direct  our  efforts  at  the  environ- 
ment in  which  the  driver  operates,  and  at  the  driver,  himself. 

I  am  convinced  that  the  quickest  way  to  improve  the  environment  for  our 
motorists  is  to  remove  unsafe  vehicles  from  the  highways.  The  only  effective 
way  to  reduce  this  major  hazard  is  to  require  the  periodic  inspection  of 
every  vehicle  registered  in  the  state. 

I  know  some  of  you  feel  that  mechanical  failure  is  not  a  significant  cause 
of  accidents. 

Defects  in  Accidents 

Mechanical  defects  do  cause  accidents.  About  ten  percent  of  the  accidents 
in  North  Carolina  are  caused  by  mechanical  defects,  according  to  our  own 
accident  records. 

Other  states   and  research   show  much  higher  proportions. 

Twenty-one  states  have  reduced  accidents  as  soon  as  inspection  programs 
were  put  to  work.  North  Carolina's  one-year  experience  in  1948  saw  a 
reduction  of  more  than  one  hundred  fatalities  (or  twelve  percent;  from  the 
previous  year. 

The  year  after  the  inspection  law  was  repealed,  the  toll  jumped  by  more 
than  one  hundred  lives  and  has  been  climbing  ever  since. 

North  Carolina  is  suffering  the  loss  of  more  than  one  hundred  lives  every 
year  that  it  delays  adoption  of  motor  vehicle  inspection. 

Unnecessary  Repairs 

Some  people  fear  that  an  inspection  system  using  private  garages  will 
result  in  unnecessary  repairs. 

The  bill  I  am  recommending  provides  for  safety  inspection  of  only  those 
items  absolutely  essential  to  safe  operation — brakes,  lights,  steering  mec- 
hanism, horn,  and  windshield  wipers,  tires  and  directional  signals  where 
required.  The  bill  provides  no  higher  standards  for  these  items  than  what 
is  already  l-equired  in  our  present  statutes. 

The  bill  provides  for  inspection  stations  to  be  selected  and  supervised  by 
the  state.  The  stations  would  be  checked  on  a  regular  basis  and  complaints 
from  car  owners  would  be  investigated  and  corrected  promptly. 

Cars  failing  to  meet  the  minimum  standards  could  be  repaired  at  any 
firm  of  the  owner's  choice  and  would  be  re-inspected  free  of  charge.  Cost 
of  inspection  would  be  $1.50  with  25c  being  turned  over  to  the  state  to 
make  the  program  self-supporting. 


1965]  HOUSE  JOURNAL  351 

Inconvenience 

By  far  the  most  common  objection  to  inspection  is  the  bad  memory  of  the 
1948  experience  and  the  fear  that  any  system  would  cause  undue  incon- 
venience to  the  public.  It  is  the  easiest  objection  to  overcome. 

This  bill  will  require  one  inspection  per  year  and  inspection  dates  will 
be  staggered  throughout  six  months  so  that  only  one-sixth  of  the  state's 
vehicles  would  be  inspected  in  any  one  month. 

All  of  the  objections  we  might  mention  would  add  up  to  a  fear  of  improper 
administration  of  any  inspection  program. 

I  pledge  to  you  and  the  people  of  North  Carolina  that  there  will  be  a 
reasonable  and  proper  administration  of  this  program. 

Vehicle  inspection  will  not  solve  the  entire  accident  problem.  But  it 
promises  more  results  faster  than  any  other  single  bill  you  will  consider  in 
this  session.  Without  its  passage,  I  see  little  hope  for  an  immediate  impact 
on  the  rising  accident  toll. 

Reflectorized  Plates 

A  very  promising  safety  device  on  the  vehicle  to  improve  the  environment 
of  drivers  is  the  reflectorized  license  plate.  At  night,  they  are  visible  three 
times  farther  away  than  ordinary  tailight  reflectors.  Seventeen  states  and 
the  District  of  Columbia  are  reducing  nightime  collisions  by  using  reflective 
safety  plates. 

The  approximate  cost  for  North  Carolina  to  institute  reflectorization  of 
plates  would  be  13c  per  plate.  I  recommend  you  adopt  these  new  plates 
as  a  one-year  experiment  to  test  this  device  in  our  state. 

Since  1966  plates  are  already  in  production,  a  change-over  could  not  be 
accomplished  until  the  1967  issue.  This  would  provide  ample  time  to  obtain 
basic  data  on  nighttime  collisions  to  assure  a  thorough  and  meaningful  com- 
parison. 

Outside  Mirror  and  Seat  Bealts 

As  another  means  of  providing  safer  vehicles  for  our  motorists,  I  recom- 
mend a  law  to  require  outside  mirrors  on  the  driver's  side  of  all  new  cars 
sold  in  North  Carolina  after  January  1,  1966.  I  am  pleased  to  learn  that 
auto  manufacturers  plan  to  install  seat  belts  in  the  front  and  back  seats 
of  all  new  cars  beginning  next  year.  This  is  a  further  step  in  the  right 
direction  and  complements  North  Carolina's  efforts  to  establish  seat  belts 
as  standard  equipment. 

The  Highway 

The  three  hundred  million  bond  issue  you  have  approved  will  be  helpful 
in  providing  safer  highways.  I  shall  also  make  a  number  of  requests  to 
the  Highway  Commission  to  increase  the  portion  of  highway  funds  now 
being  used  to  mark  and  sign  the  highways  and  to  reduce  current  engineer- 
ing hazards.    No  additional  legislation  is  required  at  this  time.

352  HOUSE  JOURNAL  [Session 

All  of  the  above  items  deal  with  the  environment  of  drivers.  They  seek 
to  produce  safer  vehicles  and  safer  highways.  The  following  items  are 
those  which  show  the  greatest  promise  in  improving  the  habits  of  our 
drivers. 

Drivers 

Driver  Education 

In  combatting  the  problem  of  driver  errors,  the  most  effective  long-range 
plan  yet  devised  is  driver  education.  We  must  raise  a  new  generation  which 
is  fully  armed  for  survival  in  the  automotive  age.  Young  people  have  the 
most  to  lose  in  traffic  accidents  and  we  must  teach  them  that  it  is  smart 
to  be  safe. 

To  do  this  we  need  to  provide  the  established  thirty-six  driver  educa- 
tion course  in  the  public  schools  for  every  new  driver  under  the  age  of 
eighteen  in  or  out  of  school.  We  must  also  have  a  renewed  safety  education 
effort  throughout  all  grade  levels  in  the  public  schools. 

It  will  cost  approximately  two  million  dollars  per  year  to  put  this  pro- 
gram into  effect.  The  direct  savings  on  insurance  premiums  paid  by  our 
citizens  will  exceed  this  investment. 

Courts 

The  front  line  of  our  attack  on  problem  drivers  is  the  court  system.  A 
top  priority  need  to  correct  their  behavior  is  a  system  of  uniform  courts 
called  for  in  the  constitutional  amendment  for  court  reform.  Swift  enact- 
ment of  the  court  legislation  now  before  you  is  vital  to  all  of  our  efforts 
aimed  at  making  safe  drivers  out  of  dangerous  drivers. 

Additional  Patrolmen 

North  Carolina  needs  three  hundred  thirty-three  additional  highway 
patrolmen  in  order  to  reach  the  upper  one-third  of  states  which  are  prop- 
erly matching  their  fatal  accident  experience  with  sufficient  law  enforcement 
coverage. 

Each  additional  patrolman  will  cost  ten  thousand  dollars.  I  have  care- 
fully considered  the  question  of  how  many  patrolmen  to  ask  you  to  author- 
ize. Keeping  all  of  our  needs  in  mind,  I  recommend  the  additional  of  fifty 
patrolmen  in  each  of  the  next  four  years.  I  hope  that  at  least  that  number 
will  be  added  every  year  afterwards  until  the  manpower  of  the  patrol 
reaches  accepted  standards. 

I  pledge  to  you  that  this  administration  will  make  every  possible  effort 
to  see  that  our  highway  patrol  stays  on  the  highway  patrolling.  And  I 
shall  work  with  court  officials  to  reduce  as  far  as  possible  the  patrolmen's 
time  spent  in  court. 

Drunk  Driving 

Drunk  driving  is  one  of  the  most  criminal  acts  modern  man  can  commit. 
So  often,  innocent  people  are  the  ones  who  suffer  from  wrecks  with  drunken 


1965]  HOUSE  JOURNAL  353 

drivers.  We  have  a  good  law  in  this  connection  and  it  should  not  be  weak- 
ened. We  will  watch  with  interest  further  experience  with  the  chemical 
test  provisions. 

Driving  After  Revocation 

Persons  whose  licenses  have  been  suspended  or  revoked  have  committed 
sufficient  unlawful  acts  to  force  the  state  to  remove  them  from  the  high- 
ways. That  is,  the  state  has  used  the  last  resort  to  improve  their  driving 
habits  and  there  is  no  recourse  left  but  to  take  away  their  privilege  to  use 
the  highways. 

When  persons  are  convicted  of  driving  after  suspension  or  revocation  of 
their  license  they  should  by  law  receive  a  mandatory  jail  sentence  of  from 
two  to  ninety  days.    I  recommend  you  pass  such  a  law. 

Additional  Licensing  Steps 

The  following  additional  steps  in  improved  driver  licensing  should  be 
enacted. 

Convictions  for  flagrant  violations  out  of  state  should  be  considered  in 
assessing  points  under  the   driver  license  point  system. 

We  should  include  eighteen  and  nineteen  year  old  drivers  under  the  pro- 
visional license  laws  which  now  covers  drivers  from  sixteen  to  seventeen. 

We  should  approve  the  driver  license  compact  to  establish  the  concept 
throughout  the  United  States  of  one  state  license  for  drivers.  This  will 
prevent  the  eventual  federal  licensing  of  drivers. 

Dangerous  Loopholes 

Two  loopholes  in  North  Carolina's  motor  vehicle  laws  allow  drivers  who 
are  found  guilty  of  traffic  violations  to  escape  the  recording  of  "points"  on 
their  violation  records. 

Prayer  for  Judgment  Continued 

The  effect  of  "prayer  for  judgment  continued'  is  that  the  judge  finds  the 
defendant  guilty  but  no  judgment  is  entered.  Technically,  the  case  is  not 
closed  and,  therefore,  no  points  can  be  assigned  to  the  individual's  driving 
record. 

"Nolo  Contendere" 

The  plea  of  "nolo  contendere"  amounts  to  an  admission  of  guilt  for  the 
proceeding  at  hand  and  cannot  be  admitted  into  subsequent  litigation.  Tech- 
nically, the  Department  of  Motor  Vehicles  cannot  consider  such  a  plea  when 
it  has  the  discretionary  authority  of  assigning  points. 

Both  of  the  above  conditions  are  defined  as  final  convictions  under  North 
Carolina's  Financial  Responsibility  Law,  but  are  not  so  considered  under 
the  Uniform  Driver's  License  Act. 


354  HOUSE  JOURNAL  [Session 

Thus,  the  purpose  of  the  point  system  is  defeated.  The  Driver's  License 
Act  should  be  brought  into  conformity  with  the  Financial  Responsibility 
Law.  The  assignment  of  points  should  depend  on  the  factual  realities  of  a 
driver's  conduct,  as  decided  by  a  court,  and  not  on  courtroom  technicalities. 

Finances 

Obviously,  there  is  a  price  tag  on  most  of  the  items  we  have  listed.  Let 
me  list  them. 

Biennium 

Highway  Safety  Research  Center  $    100,000 

Driver  Education  4,245,273 

Reflectorized  plates  285,000 

100  additional  patrolmen  1,000,000 

TOTAL  $5,630,273 

Funds  for  the  Safety  Research  Center  and  for  driver  education  will  be 
made  available  through  the  General  Fund.  Dr.  Charles  F.  Carroll,  Super- 
intendent of  Public  Instruction,  informs  me  that,  in  view  of  the  enactment 
of  the  Federal  Elementary  and  Secondary  Education  Act,  the  funds  neces- 
sary to  finance  the  driver  education  program  can  be  found  in  the  recom- 
mended budgets  for  the  nine-months  school  term.  We  will  work  together 
with  the  appropriations  committee  to  make  the  adjustments  necessary  to 
accomplish  this  program.  This  will  not  affect  other  recommendations  which 
I  have  made  concerning  the  public  schools. 

Funds  for  the  reflectorized  plates  and  the  one  hundred  additional  patrol- 
men will  be  made  available  through  the  state  highway  fund. 

Certainly  there  are  some  costs  involved  in  the  total  program,  but  we  are 
dealing  with  a  matter  of  life  and  death  and  untold  property  destruction. 
The  success  of  this  program  will  justify  the  expense  involved. 

When  we  consider  the  cost  of  this  safety  program,  please  remember  that 
highway  accidents  cost  North  Carolina  eight  hundred  thousand  dollars 
each  day  of  the  year. 

Everyone  of  us  pays  this  unnecessary  penalty. 

Accident  prevention  does  not  cost — it  pays. 

Local  Action 

I  have  described  to  you  a  comprehensive  program  for  the  State  of  North 
Carolina.  Since  almost  half  of  our  non-fatal  accidents  occur  within  city 
limits,  municipal  governments  must  also  participate  in  this  total  state-wide 
campaign  to  reduce  the  highway  toll.  I  urge  local  officials  to  support  this 
state  program  with  maximum  local  effort. 

Established  guidelines  for  obtaining  official  coordination  and  organizing 
citizen  support  are  available  through  the  North  Carolina  Traffic  Safety 
Council  to  cities  of  five  thousand  population  or  more.    The  Council  is  eager 


1965]  HOUSE  JOURNAL  355 

and  ready  to  provide  full  field  services  to  those  municipalities  who  seek 
help  in  a  coordinated  attack  on  traffic  accidents.  New  programs  are  being 
developed  and  will  be  announced  when  completed. 

The  safety  program  which  I  have  recommended  to  you  is  reasonable.  It 
is  realistic.  It  is  the  result  of  weeks  of  concentrated  work  by  competent, 
experienced  safety  people.    I  am  convinced  that  it  can  get  results. 

First,  it  brings  together  the  many  different  proven  means  which  have 
saved  lives  in  North  Carolina  and  other  states  .  .  .  means  which  are  accept- 
able to  the  public. 

Second,  it  commits  all  of  the  state's  resources  in  an  organized  effort  to 
save  lives  and  property. 

Third,  it  makes  maximum  use  of  the  knowledge  which  modern  science 
has  made  available. 

Fourth,  it  provides  for  improved  public  understanding  and  support. 

But  remember  that  there  is  no  single,  magic  solution.  No  quick  cure. 
Many  have  thought  they  had  found  one.    Only  to  be  disappointed. 

If  each  of  us  understand  now  how  many,  many  factors  are  involved,  and 
realize  the  urgent  and  immediate  need,  we  shall  have  a  total  program  of 
coordinated  action.    And  that  program  will  work. 

This  is  a  beginning  that  can  pay  off  now  and  in  the  long-run.  But  a 
beginning  that  must  start  here. 

Now! 

With  you! 

Your  action  can  make  it  a  reality. 

You  actually  have  the  power  to  save  human  life  and  to  prevent  the 
staggering  economic  losses  resulting  each  day  from  highway  accidents. 

Use  that  ability!  Exercise  that  power  without  delay  and  without  com- 
promise. Join  with  me  in  placing  above  political  popularity  or  ambition 
our  obligation  to  the  men,  women  and  children  of  North  Carolina. 

Thank  you. 

After  the  Governor's  address,  on  motion  of  Senator  Morgan,  the  Joint 
Assembly  dissolves,  the  Senate  repairs  to  its  Chambers,  and  the  House  re- 
sumes consideration  of  its  business.

"For  the  beauty  of  the  earth 

For  the  glories  of  the  skies 

For  the  love  which  from  our  birth 

Over  and  around  us  lies. 

Lord  of  all  to  Thee  we  raise 

This  our  voice  in  grateful  praise. 

Unto  all  of  us,  O  Father,  so  much  has  been 
given.  Remind  us  that  unto  whom  so  much  has  been  given,  of  him  shall  so 
much  be  required. 

Be,  we  pray,  O  God,  with  this  body  as  they  meet  today.  Give  to  them 
wisdom  and  understanding  beyond  their  own  powers.  Grant  to  them  con- 
viction in  their  deliberations;  yet,  let  them  be  ever  mindful  of  those  whom 
they  represent. 

Be  above  them  to  shelter  them,  beneath  them  to  hold  them  up,  before 
them  to  lead  them  on,  behind  them  to  gather  them  when  they  stumble  and 
fall,  without  to  surround  them  with  Thy  love,  and  within  them  to  give 
them  life.

another  night  and  yet  the  light  and  labor  of  another  day.  And  unto  Thee,

STUDIES   FROM   THE   STATUS  OF  WOMEN 

The  North  Carolina  Study 

The  Kennedy  Study 

Mrs.  Grace  Taylor  Rodenbough, 

Walnut  Cove,  N.  C. 

"Before  the  Committee  on  the  Status  of  Women  in  the  Government  con- 
siders any  bills  assigned  to  the  Committee,  I  asked  permission  to  make  a  few 
comments  on  the  findings  of  the  North  Carolina  Commission  on  the  Status 
of  Women  and  also  President  Kennedy's  Commission  on  the  Study  of  the 
Status  of  Women.  There  have  been  studies  made  in  30  of  our  states. 

I  shall  begin  by  saying  what  you  men  already  think,  and  that  is  the 
"Last  word  on  women  will  never  be  written  until  'thus  endeth  the  future'  ". 

We,  of  course,  know  that  self-preservation  has  foundational  drive  in  both 
sexes,  but  the  drives  express  themselves,  at  times,  inharmoniously. 

Women  are  the  incarnation  of  practice  while  men  are  the  victims  of 
theory.  It  is  said  that  men  reason  better,  but  women  remember  longer.  Of 
course,  a  woman  can  be  moulded  by  environment  so  that  she  becomes  a  male 


1965]  HOUSE  JOURNAL  519 

in  skirts.  Women  have  proved  through  the  centuries  that  they  have  endur- 
ance. Woman  have  a  longer  life-span  than  men. 

A  woman  needs  status.  She  resents  being  a  second-rate  citizen.  She  needs 
security  yet,  she  seems  to  endure  insecurity  less  well  than  men. 

We  hear  more  about  woman's  position  today  because  rapid  social  change 
is  upsetting  traditional  images.  Woman  has  a  right,  if  not  an  obligation  to 
fulfill  her  potentialities. 

2,000,000  live  in  North  Carolina; 

Health  and  life  expectancy  have  improved  tremendously; 

Fewer  years  are  devoted  to  child  rearing; 

Technology  has  reduced  the  physical  conditions  of  keeping  house. 

Women's  legal  status  has  improved  to  the  point  that  no  important  dis- 
criminations against  women  are  written  in  North  Carolina  Law.  Nearly  a 
third  of  the  women  over  fourteen  are  in  the  labor  force.  Seven-tenths  of  all 
women  in  the  State  over  fourteen  are  married.  The  decline  in  the  birth-rate 
and  the  great  improvement  in  infant  mortality  rates  have  brought  a  basic 
change  in  the  pattern  of  women's  lives. 

Educational  opportunity  for  the  North  Carolina  women  has  improved 
remarkably — a  higher  proportion  of  women  than  men  have  finished  high 
school  and  have  had  some  time  in  college. 

Many  trained  women  are  not  able  to  work  because  of  inflexible  hours  in 
industry,  business  and  government.  Other  women  who  are  heads  of  families 
and  work  for  their  support  suffer  from  inadequate  child-care  facilities,  from 
job  discrimination,  wage  discrimination  and  lack  of  knowledge  of  openings. 
Sixty-three  percent  of  all  women  workers  are  married.  The  median  earn- 
ings of  female  workers  is  $680  a  year  less  than  those  of  men.  Since  woman 
have  more  years  of  schooling  than  men,  lack  of  education  cannot  be  the 
cause  of  women's  consistently  lower  earnings. 

Since  the  median  age  of  women  workers  in  North  Carolina  is  38,  one 
might  assume  that  women  generally  are  more  likely  than  men  to  quit  their 
jobs,  might  be  questioned. 

The  proportion  of  female  employees  is  1/3  in  the  State's  administrative 
agencies;  2/5  in  local  Employment  Security  Commission  offices;  2/3  in 
County  Health  Departments,  and  3/4  in  County  Welfare  Departments. 

Of  course,  the  image  of  femininity  often  enters  into  the  scheme  of  things 
and  the  lag  is  within  women  themselves. 

The  shortage  of  technical  and  professional  workers  could  be  alleviated 
if  employers  could  exercise  ingenuity  in  setting  up  part-time  jobs  open  to 
trained  women  who  are  carrying  household  loads  and  family  responsibilities. 
In  socio-economic  levels,  in  both  low  and  high,  the  mental  health  of  the 
child  is  better  where  the  mother  works  part  time. 


520  HOUSE  JOURNAL  [Session 

At  age  35,  the  average  woman  has  42  more  years  to  live.  Many  such 
women  are  stable,  experienced  in  home  responsibilities  and  highly  motivated 
to  work. 

Something  will  have  to  be  done,  for  professional  and  technical  personnel 
cannot  suddenly  be  met  from  the  unemployed.  Three-fourths  of  college- 
educated  women  in  the  labor  force  occupy  professional  positions.  This  shows 
the  rewards  of  higher  education. 

This  country  has  the  shortest  school  year  of  any  in  the  civilized  world, 
averaging  180  days. 

The  1960  census  shows  adult  women  in  North  Carolina  have  about  one 
year  more  education  than  adult  men. 

We  have  the  problem  of  those  women  who  cannot  qualify  for  the  simplest 
technical  training  because  they  never  finished  elementary  school.  In  the 
other  extreme  we  have  married  women  of  35  to  40  who  want  to  go  to 
Graduate  School  but  find  themselves  rejected  as  too  old.  We  have  a  tremen- 
dous need  for  more  guidance,  for  in  the  future  there  will  be  work  and 
family  life  in  varying  degrees.  So,  public  schools  and  colleges  have  many 
problems  with  which  to  deal. 

Even  without  the  power  of  the  ballot  women  went  into  politics  because 
of  their  interest  in  the  issues.  We  must  have  the  flexibility  to  welcome 
change  rather  than  to  fear  it. 

Women  have  been  conditioned  to  believe  that  they  are  inferior.  They  were 
led  to  believe  that  they  had  less  mental  capacity  because  they  had  smaller 
brains.  We  know  now  that  the  size  of  the  brain  has  nothing  to  do  with  the 
capacity.  The  largest  brain  on  record  was  that  of  an  idiot,  while  the  small- 
est brains  have  been  those  of  some  of  our  geniuses. 

The  world  is  in  a  critical  condition;  women  can't  be  blamed  for  their 
advice  hasn't  been  in  great  demand.  George  Elliott  said,  'The  world  is  still 
a  little  dubious  about  the  propriety  of  a  woman  using  her  mind.' 

Women  in  this  country  have  had  the  vote  longer,  however  in  other  coun- 
tries where  women  are  just  getting  the  vote,  there  has  been  a  greater  rise 
in  the  number  of  women  in  public  office. 

I  had  the  pleasure  of  presenting  Lady  Astor  to  the  1955  General  Assembly 
— first  woman  in  English  Parliament.  She  began  her  remarks  by  saying, 
"I'm  so  aggressive  I  repel  myself.'  While  I  think  Lady  Astor  was  one  of  the 
most  delightful,  charming,  interesting  people  I've  ever  known,  I'm  not  sure 
that  being  too  aggressive  is  the  best  way  to  get  ahead.  She  said,  'Most 
women  marry  beneath  themselves,  I  did'.  She  did  admit  that  her  success  was 
due  to  the  fact  that  she  was  born  south  of  the  Mason-Dixon  Line. 

The  greatest  hindrance  to  good  government  is  the  indifference  of  the 
voters  to  their  civic  obligations.  It  is  un-American  not  to  vote.  It  shows  that 
we  are  not  willing  to  fight  for  and  to  protect  our  American  way  of  life, 
American  home  and  American  family. 

If  we  have  a  workable  democracy,  politics  may  be  a  part  of  every  one's 
life. 


1965]  HOUSE  JOURNAL  521 

If  there  is  stigma  attached  to  politics,  which  is  the  art  and  science  of 
government,  our  citizens  are  responsible.  For  government  is  as  good  or  as 
bad  as  the  citizens  want  it.  Even  though  there  are  more  women  than  men, 
we  know  the  affairs  of  the  world  will  continue  to  be  run  by  men.  We  just 
want  to  help  you  run  the  affairs  more  humanely. 

Women  want  to  be  judged  on  their  merit  and  not  on  their  sex.  When  I 
first  came  to  the  Legislature,  I  became  terribly  concerned  about  the  State's 
medieval  property  and  inheritance  laws  which  gave  so  little  protection  to  the 
surviving  widow  where  there  was  no  will.  I  had  so  many  letters  from  widows 
whose  husbands  had  died  intestate.  The  majority  of  the  people  die  without  a 
will,  so  their  estates  were  distributed  under  the  State's  obsolete  intestacy 
laws. 

Our  law  of  intestate  succession  was  the  law  which  determined  how  prop- 
erty could  be  distributed  in  the  absence  of  a  will.  The  law  developed  in  Eng- 
land at  a  time  when  land  was  the  sole  important  source  of  wealth. 

When  Justice  Clark  came  to  the  Supreme  Court,  he  found  the  law  with 
respect  to  women  cruel  and  in  many  instances  revolting. 

The  condition  was  not  created  by  legislative  enactments  but  was  brought 
about  almost  entirely  by  judicial  decisions  based  on  the  English  Common 
Law  which,  of  course,  was  judge-made.  This  was  before  there  was  a  Parlia- 
ment. 

Woman  was  a  legal  nonentity.  It  finally  became  known  that  the  only  hope 
for  reform  would  have  to  come  through  legislation,  so  it  was  the  General 
Assembly  that  finally  freed  women  from  their  outrageous  injustices. 

Chief  Justice  Walter  Clark,  who  more  than  any  other  North  Carolinian, 
prepared  bills  at  the  request  of  members  of  the  General  Assembly  for  re- 
forms that  freed  women  from  judicial  slavery  in  North  Carolina. 

Men  were  favored  over  women  and  blood  lines  were  favored  over  heart 
lines. 

Before  the  adoption  of  the  Constitution  in  North  Carolina,  in  1868  women 
and  their  property  were  in  jeopardy.  Everything  she  had  upon  marriage 
became  that  of  her  husband.  She  was  not  even  allowed  a  separate  provision 
for  herself  out  of  her  own  property.  There  was  one  exception.  If  she  sur- 
vived her  husband,  her  realty  became  her  own.  She  practically  assumed  the 
place  of  a  chattel. 

Someone  said  that  upon  marriage,  the  husband  and  wife  become  one  and 
that  one  was  the  husband.  Until  1959  North  Carolina  had  to  abide  by  some 
of  the  legal  rules  of  the  Middle  Ages.  Even  though  the  average  estate  con- 
tained more  personal  property;  that  is,  stocks,  bonds,  insurance  policies,  etc. 
than  real  property. 

North  Carolina  was  one  of  the  few  states  to  observe  the  ancient  distinc- 
tion between  real  and  personal  property.  The  out-dated  widow's  dower  was 
the  right  of  the  wife  to  use  the  profits  of  one-third  in  value  of  the  husband's 
real  estate  during  her  life  time. 


522  HOUSE  JOURNAL  [Session 

During  the  1959  and  1961  Sessions  of  the  General  Assembly,  many  pro- 
visions were  made  to  equalize  the  rights  of  men  and  women.  The  new  law 
passed  during  the  1959  Session  of  the  General  Assembly  did  away  with  the 
estates  of  dower  and  courtesy.  Husband  and  wife  were  placed  on  equal  basis. 

The  new  law  abolished  distinctions  drawn  between  ancestral  and  non- 
ancestral  property,  erased  past  distinctions  between  relations  of  the  whole 
and  of  the  half  blood.  The  new  law  established  a  table  of  distribution  of  a 
sort  which  would  take  care  of  those  entitled  to  inherit  in  case  of  no  will. 

Chester  Davis,  Winston-Salem  Journal  and  Sentinal,  wrote  two  interest- 
ing stories  on  the  State  Intestacy  Laws.  He  said  the  law  was  written  when 
women  were  considered  to  be  creatures  of  the  kitchen  and  the  bed  room  and 
little  else.  I  was  amused  at  the  wording  of  who  may  make  a  will — S.  B.  26, 
Chapter  1098,  General  Statutes  31-1.  Any  person  of  sound  mind,  21  years  of 
age  and  over,  including  married  women,  may  make  a  will.  Not  too  long  ago, 
the  Supreme  Court  declared  the  part  of  the  law  which  placed  a  wife  on  equal 
basis  with  her  husband  unconstitutional. 

Article  X,  Section  6,  of  the  North  Carolina  Constitution,  said  the  real  and 
personal  property  of  any  female  in  this  State  acquired  before  marriage  and 
all  property  real  and  personal  to  which  she  may,  after  marriage,  become 
in  any  manner,  entitled  shall  be  and  remain  the  sole  and  separate  property 
of  such  female  and  shall  not  be  liable  for  any  debts,  obligations  or  engage- 
ments of  her  husband  and  may  be  devised  and  bequeathed,  and  with  written 
assent  of  her  husband  conveyed  by  her  as  if  she  were  unmarried. 

Case  of  Dudley  vs.  Staton — Mr.  Dudley  and  his  wife  had  been  married 
fourteen  years  and  had  lived  together  continuously.  Mrs.  Dudley  had  an 
older  son  by  a  former  marriage  to  whom  she  left  all  her  real  and  personal 
property.  Will  made  January  28,  1961.  In  May  Mr.  Dudley  filed  a  dissent. 
Of  course,  husband  found  in  conflict  with  Article  X,  Section  6.  Supreme 
Court  declared  it  unconstitutional. 

Women  should  never  have  voted  for  this  Constitutional  Amendment.  I 
don't  believe  they  would  have,  had  the  amendment  not  been  miss-labeled. 
It  was  a  man's  law. 

Most  wives  outlive  their  husbands  too.  You  know  that  many  widows  are 
married  for  their  money.  Now,  the  husband  of  the  widow  can  dissent  and 
get  1/4  of  what  the  first  husband  made. 

I  doubt  if  some  of  you  men  would  like  this. 

We  are  facing  a  battle  of  the  minds  and  I  feel  women  have  a  real  chal- 
lenge to  help  solve  the  differences. 

Remember,  it  is  said  that  in  every  land,  civilization  is  measured  by  the 
Status  of  Women."

APPENDIX 

INAUGURAL  ADDRESS 

OF 

GOVERNOR  DAN  K.  MOORE 

RALEIGH   MEMORIAL   AUDITORIUM 

Friday,  January  8,  1965 

My  fellow  North  Carolinians: 

I  come  to  this  rostrum  today  with  pride  and  with  humility. 

I  come  with  pride  in  the  privilege  you  have  given  me  to  serve  a  great 
State  and  a  great  people. 

I  come  with  humility-humility  born  of  a  deep  awareness  of  the  respon- 
sibility that  this  privilege  of  service  imposes. 

The  road  from  Canton  to  Raleigh  has  been  a  long  road.  But  we  have  at 
last  arrived.  Despite  the  rough  jolts  and  sharp  turns  of  the  trip,  my  wife, 
my  family  and  I  have  enjoyed  every  mile  of  the  journey.  It  was  a  heart- 
warming experience  we  shall  never  forget. 

The  road  from  Canton  to  Raleigh  carried  us  through  every  county  and 
into  most  communities  in  North  Carolina.  It  took  us  into  the  lives  of  many 
different  people-farmers,  textile  workers,  housewives,  school  teachers,  fisher- 
men, state  employees,  truck  drivers,  doctors,  lawyers  and  many,  many 
others.  We  listened,  we  asked  questions  and  we  gained  a  new  awareness 
and  a  deeper  understanding  of  our  State's  greatest   resource — its   people. 

At  times  we  were  discouraged  and  tired.  But  all  our  difficulties  and 
doubts  faded  into  insignificance  as  we  were  bolstered  by  the  unfailing 
kindness,   courtesy  and   understanding   of   people  everywhere. 

Today,  as  I  took  the  oath  of  office,  I  felt  that  I  had  their  good  will.  It 
is  they  who  made  our  trip  worthwhile.    It  is  they  I  will  seek  to  serve. 

Mrs.  Moore  and  I  are  grateful  for  the  presence  here  today  of  so  many 
friends  and  neighbors  from  the  hills  of  home.  I  was  born,  reared  and  have 
spent  most  of  my  adult  life  in  that  section  of  the  State  which  lies  west  of 
the  Blue  Ridge.  My  forebears  have  lived  in  that  beautiful  region  since  it 
was  first  opened  to  the  white  settlers.  As  Thomas  Wolfe  wrote:  "Each  of 
us  is  all  the  sums  he  has  not  counted." 

While  I  am  naturally  proud  of  my  mountain  heritage,  I  know  and 
appreciate  all  the  people  of  North  Carolina,  whether  they  live  on  the 
wide,  sandy  beaches  of  the  Outer  Banks,  the  black  loam  of  the  Coastal 
Plains,  the  red  clay  of  the  Piedmont  or  the  rocky  slopes  of  our  Mountains. 
During  the  next  four  years  I  will  be  the  Governor  of  all  the  people. 


1030  HOUSE  JOURNAL  [Session 

I  have  taken  the  oath  of  office  without  any  reservations.  It  is  my  firm 
resolve  to  devote  to  my  official  duties  during  the  next  four  years  all  I  have 
in  ability,  vision  and  energy.  I  will  have  no  conflict  of  interest  to  sway 
my  judgment  and  no  unworthy  ambition  to  promote. 

North  Carolina  has  grown  and  flourished  under  the  guidance  of  many 
able  governors.  We  all  are  beneficiaries  of  their  efforts  to  improve  our 
public  schools,  colleges,  highways,  mental  hospitals,  state  ports,  fiscal  sta- 
bility, conservation  and  development  of  natural  resources,  agriculture, 
industry,  cultural  achievements,  and  humanitarian  services. 

My  administration  will  build  upon  the  solid  foundation  of  State  services 
that  these  past  leaders  have  provided  for  us.  Each  of  these  governors 
represented  principles  and  causes  supported  in  his  day  and  time  by  thou- 
sands of  North  Carolinians  devoted  to  the  well-being  of  our  State. 

Any  evaluation  of  these  achievements  must  recognize  the  vital  role  played 
by  our  General  Assembly.  North  Carolina  has  been  fortunate  to  have  the 
services  of  dedicated,  able  legislators  down  through  the  years.  I  look  for- 
ward eagerly  to  working  with  members  of  the  1965  General  Assembly.  The 
door  to  my  office  will  always  be  open  to  them. 

Similarly,  credit  for  progress  in  our  State  must  be  given  to  the  North 
Carolina  Supreme  Court  and  the  entire  Judiciary.  Justice  based  on  law 
administered  by  dedicated  and  qualified  justices  and  judges  has  been  the 
hallmark  of  our  solid  progress.    It  must  continue  to  be. 

While  we  have  had  outstanding  governors,  legislators,  and  judges,  it  is 
the  people  of  North  Carolina  who  have  actually  made  our  progress  a  reality. 
North  Carolina  has  acquired  its  own  character,  tradition  and  history 
through  the  struggle,  sacrifice,  courage,  and  hard  work  of  men  and  women 
who  met  their  own  responsibilities. 

It  will  not  be  my  purpose  here  today  to  re-state  the  details  of  a  program 
that  has  already  been  submitted  to  the  people  during  more  than  a  year  of 
campaigning.  I  have  an  obligation  to  carry  out  that  program,  and  my 
total  energy  will  be  devoted  to  that  task. 

My  purpose  today  is  twofold:  to  state  the  spirit  that  will  guide  me  in 
the  administration  of  your  State  government,  and  to  call  on  all  who  love 
North  Carolina  to  join  me  in  a  new  dedication  to  the  total  development  of 
our  State. 

Stated  briefly,  my  administration  will  seek  to  give  the  people  of  North 
Carolina  honest,  efficient  and  economical  government.  We  shall  utilize 
people  who  are  skilled,  creative,  productive-who  have  a  strong  feeling  of 
ethical  responsibility.  We  shall  work  closely  with  the  Lieutenant  Governor, 
with  the  Speaker  of  the  House  of  Representatives,  with  the  Council  of 
State  as  provided  in  our  Constitution. 

We  shall  always  stay  in  close  touch  with  the  North  Carolina  delegation 
in  Congress,  particularly  in  these  days  of  crisis  in  the  tobacco  industry. 
North  Carolina,  along  with  the  other  sovereign  states,  will  stand  solidly 
behind  the   President   of  the   United   States  as  he  seeks   to  carry  out  his 


1965]  HOUSE  JOURNAL  1031 

responsibilities  in  the  continuing  struggle  against  communism  and  seeks  to 
preserve  peace  in  a  troubled  world. 

Integrity  in  public  service  will  be  a  watchworld  of  my  administration. 
The  sole  purpose  of  State  government  is  to  serve  our  people's  needs  faith- 
fully and  well.    It  should  serve  no  other  purpose. 

My  administration  will  be  a  government  of  laws  and  not  of  men.  The 
law  is  just  as  binding  on  the  Governor  and  all  other  public  officials  as  it  is 
upon  the  humblest  citizen  of  this  State.  No  one  is  above  or  beyond  the 
law.  Each  of  us  is  equal  when  we  stand  before  the  bar  of  justice.  We 
shall  see  that  the  law  is  impartially  enforced  without  fear  or  favor. 

Today  let  us  rededicate  ourselves  to  the  virtues  and  high  principles  of 
public  service  that  have  contributed  so  much  to  bring  North  Carolina  to 
this  day  of  great  promise.  I  will  provide  the  firm  leadership  that  will 
give  North  Carolina  a  government  that  is  dynamic,  a  government  that  is 
compassionate  and  tolerant,  a  government  that  looks  realistically  at  the 
hopes  and  aspirations  of  every  citizen. 

Ours  is  a  fast-moving  age,  an  age  of  promise,  an  age  of  change.  If  we 
are  to  compete  in  this  age,  as  we  must,  then  we  will  approach  these  changing 
times  with  an  open  mind  and  with  a  determination  to  take  full  advantage 
of  all  opportunities  they  may  afford. 

At  the  same  time,  we  must  acknowledge  that  there  are  values  and 
principles  that  do  not  change;  that  change  merely  for  the  sake  of  change 
is  not  progress.  In  many  areas  in  recent  years,  we  have  seen  an  erosion  of 
the  human  spirit,  a  complacency  that  is  frightening,  a  fatalistic  acceptance 
of  political  and  economic  trends  that  threaten  basic  concepts  precious  to 
North  Carolinians.  We  have  seen  the  growing  strength  of  socialistic 
schemes,  the  rise  of  big  givernment,  the  not-so-gradual  weakening  of  the 
free  enterprise  system.    We  in  North  Carolina  are  opposed  to  these  trends. 

I  believe  strongly  in  the  American  system  of  free  Enterprise.  Its  incredible 
productivity  and  vitality  have  provided  our  State  and  Nation  with  an  ever- 
improving  standard  of  living.  We  must  continue  to  encourage  and  strengthen 
free  enterprise,  whether  local,  state  or  national.  Sound  growth  and  ex- 
pansion in  business,  industry,  agriculture,  commerce,  utilities,  transporta- 
tion and  communications  are  essential  to  the  total  development  of  North 
Carolina.  Research,  science  and  technology  are  other  vital  components 
which  must  be  encouraged.  And  we  should  never  forget  the  value  of  cul- 
tural enrichments  in  the  lives  of  our  people,  and  the  preservation  of 
beauty  in  our  State. 

The  decisions  of  my  administration  will  be  made  in  keeping  with  our 
proven  traditions  of  good  government.  Each  issue  will  be  judged  on  its 
merit.  When  caution  is  dictated,  let  us,  in  keeping  with  our  tradition, 
have  the  courage  to  be  cautious.  If  boldness  is  dictated,  let  us,  in  keeping 
with  that  same  tradition,  have  the  courage  to  be  bold. 

I  hold  the  firm  conviction  that  North  Carolina  stands  at  this  moment  on 
the  threshold  of  greatness,  looking  to  an  era  of  unprecedented  prosperity 
and  growth.    We  have  come  to  the  moment  when  our  dreams  can  become  a 


1032  HOUSE  JOURNAL  [Session 

reality,  not  because  fate  willed  it,  but  because  North  Carolinians  in  past 
years  have  made  this  possible. 

The  challenge  before  us  now  is  to  move  forward.  It  is  an  exciting  chal- 
lenge. And  it  is  one  that  North  Carolinians  will  meet  with  a  new  en- 
thusiasm, building  proudly  and  with  confidence  on  the  sound  foundation  we 
inherit  from  the  past. 

From  this  threshold  of  greatness,  North  Carolina  will  move  forward  in 
education.  Heartening  as  our  educational  progress  has  been,  we  must  not 
be  complacent.  Much  more  remains  to  be  done  in  public  schools,  in 
community  colleges  and  in  our  institutions  of  higher  learning.  We  must 
give  to  all  our  children  the  best  that  we  can  provide  in  educational  oppor- 
tunity. Less  than  that  would  be  a  cruel  disservice  to  these  children  and 
to  North  Carolina. 

Education  is  a  capital  investment  in  the  future  of  our  State.  The  direct 
and  indirect  return  on  that  investment  can  and  will  stagger  the  imagina- 
tion of  our  people  and  quicken  the  economic  pulse-beat  of  our  State.  The 
simple  fact  is  that  today  the  well-educated  man  or  woman  has  become  the 
single  most  important  capital  resource  in  our  society. 

From  this  threshold  of  greatness,  North  Carolina  will  move  forward  in 
all  major  segments  of  our  economy.  We  must  have  more  new  and  expanded 
industries,  more  diversified  and  profitable  agriculture,  more  and  better 
rural  roads,  primary  and  urban  highways  and  improved  health  and  medical 
care.  We  must  have  improved  courts,  better  humanitarian  services  and 
good  human  relations. 

One  crucial  problem  which  must  be  attacked  immediately  with  new  vigor 
and  new  ideas  is  being  spelled  out  in  blood  on  our  streets  and  highways 
each  day.  The  crisis  in  traffic  accidents  leaves  us  no  choice  but  to  recom- 
mend constructive  action  by  the  1965  General  Assembly.  I  shall  have  specific 
recommendations  on  traffic  safety  and  other  parts  of  my  legislative  program 
when  the  General  Assembly  convenes  in  February. 

We  realize,  of  course,  that  whatever  advancements  we  may  be  able  to 
make  in  education  and  other  basic  State  services  must  be  made  within 
the  limits  of  available  State  revenues. 

Considering  the  fact  that  North  Carolina  performs  many  services  on  the 
State  level,  I  do  not  consider  that  we  are  a  high-tax  State,  but  I  do  con- 
tend that  our  taxes  are  high  enough  and  should  not  be  increased.  So  all 
who  desire  more  revenue  for  the  public  service  should  do  everything  possible 
to  assist  in  the  further  industralization  of  our  State,  in  diversification  of 
agriculture  and  in  an  all-out  effort  to  increase  our  per  capita  income. 

To  meet  the  challenge  of  1965  and  the  years  ahead,  each  of  us  must 
contribute  the  best  we  have  to  offer.  I  wish  to  call  upon  North  Carolinians 
of  every  section,  of  every  race,  of  every  political  affiliation,  of  every  station 
in  life,  to  help  us  realize  this  dream  for  a  greater  North  Carolina. 

It  is  my  hope  that  every  man  and  woman  in  our  State  will  share  in  this 
endeavor.   I  want  them  to  feel  that  they  can  make  a  contribution,  no  matter 


1965]  HOUSE  JOURNAL  1033 

how  small,  to  the  building  of  a  better  North  Carolina.  My  administration 
will  seek  their  active  support,  their  continued  interest  and  their  suggestions 
on  how  we  can  reach  this  worthy  goal. 

To  me,  North  Carolina  is  a  great  and  good  commnuity — one  giant 
neighborhood  extending  from  the  mountains  to  the  sea.  Such  a  community 
represents  the  hopes,  the  dreams  and  the  aspirations  of  all  our  people. 
This  concept  of  the  great  and  good  community  is  not  mine  alone.  It  comes 
to  me  from  the  hearts  of  the  people  themselves,  the  people  with  whom  I 
have  talked  and  whose  voices  I  have  heard. 

The  challenge  of  the  hour  is  great.  The  potential  of  our  people  to 
achieve  is  unlimited.  The  question  is :  are  we  really  prepared  to  take 
advantage  of  the  great  opportunity  now  before  us?  We  are,  if  we  as  a 
people  all  work  together. 

Yes,  the  road  from  Canton  to  Raleigh  has  been  a  long  one.  That  journey 
is  ended.  Today  I  begin  a  new  journey  to  serve  the  people  of  North  Carolina 
as  their  sixty-first  Governor.  I  accept  without  reservation  the  grave 
responsibilities. 

As  Governor  Zebulon  B  Vance  said  in  his  Inaugural  Address  on  January 
1,  1877:  "Let  us  remember  that  good  government  confers  not  of  itself 
wealth,  prosperity  and  happiness,  but  only  places  them  within  our  reach, 
and  renders  it  possible  for  them  to  be  acquired  by  those  who  seek  them 
with  energy,  industry,  and  integrity.  .  .  .  Above  all,  let  us  learn  to  use  our 
great  victory  with  moderation  and  justice,  and  strive  to  wield  the  power 
which  is  this  great  day  given  us,  as  those  who  must  render  an  account, 
both  here  and  hereafter." 

I  believe  no  man  can  accept  such  high  office  without  a  realization  that 
the  hand  of  Divine  Guidance  is  present  in  all  our  mortal  struggles  for  a 
better  life,  as  expressed  in  the  familiar  hymn : 

"O  God,  our  help  in  ages  past, 
Our  hope  for  years  to  come; 
Be  thou  our  guide  while  life   shall   last, 
And  our  eternal  home!"

MESSAGE   OF   THE    HONORABLE   DAN    K.    MOORE, 

GOVERNOR   OF    NORTH    CAROLINA, 

TO    THE    EXTRA    SESSION 

THE    GENERAL   ASSEMBLY   OF    NORTH    CAROLINA 

"Mr.  President,  Mr.  Speaker,  Members  of  the  General  Assembly  of  North 
Carolina: 

Thank  you  for  your  courtesy  in  permitting  me  to  appear  before  this 
joint  meeting  of  the  extra  session  of  the  1965  General  Assembly.  I  am 
grateful  for  this  opportunity  to  present  for  your  consideration  my  recom- 
mendations concerning  the  amendments  to  Chapter  1207  of  the  1963 
Session  Laws  as  set  forth  in  the  Speaker  Ban  Law  Study  Commission 
report. 


1965]  HOUSE  JOURNAL  15 

As  you  recall,  the  General  Assembly,  in  its  past  session,  enacted 
Resolution  No.  85  which  was  'A  Joint  resolution  creating  a  commission  to 
study  the  statutes  relating  to  visiting  speakers  at  state  supported  educa- 
tional institutions'.  This  resolution  authorized  and  directed  the  appoint- 
ment of  a  nine-member  Commission  to  make  a  careful,  full  and  detailed 
study  of  General  Statutes  116-199  and  General  Statutes  116-200,  relating 
to  visiting  speakers  at  state  supported  educational  institutions  of  higher 
learning,  with  respect  particularly  to  the  enforcement  of  the  statutes; 

the  relationship,  if  any,  between  these  statutes  and  the  accreditation  of 
state-supported  institutions  by  accreditation  organizations  and  associations; 

the  effect  on  the  relationship  of  these  institutions  with  other  institutions 
of  higher  learning  and 

the  impact  of  the  statutes  as  to  the  status,  administration,  reputation, 
functioning  and   future   development  of   state-supported   institutions. 

This  Commission,  composed  of  two  members  appointed  by  the  President 
of  the  Senate,  two  members  appointed  by  the  Speaker  of  the  House,  and 
five  members  appointed  by  the  Governor,  was  named  on  June  24,  1965. 
My  appointments  were: 

The  Honorable  David  Rritt  of  Fairmont,  Representative  from  Robeson 
County,  who  served  as  Chairman. 

Colonel  W.  T.  Joyner  of  Raleigh,  prominent  attorney. 

Charles  Meyers  of  Greensboro,  President  of  Burlington  Industries,  Inc. 

Mrs.  Elizabeth  Swindell  of  Wilson,  immediate  past  president  of  the 
North  Carolina  Press  Association. 

The  Reverend  Ben  C.  Fisher  of  Wake  Forest,  Chairman  of  the  Com- 
mission on  Higher  Education  of  the  Baptist  State  Convention. 

The  Honorable  Robert  W.  Scott,  Lieutenant  Governor  of  North  Carolina, 
appointed  the  Honorable  Gordon  Hanes  of  Winston-Salem,  Senator  from 
Forsyth  County;  and  the  Honorable  Russell  Kirby  of  Wilson,  Senator  from 
Wilson  County. 

The  Honorable  Patrick  Taylor,  Speaker  of  the  House  of  Representatives, 
appointed  the  Honorable  A.  A.  Zollicoffer  of  Henderson,  Representative 
from  Vance  County,  who  served  as  Chairman  of  the  House  Committee  on 
Appropriations;  and  the  Honorable  Lacy  Thornburg  of  Sylva,  Represen- 
tative from  Jackson  County. 

The  membership  of  the  Study  Commission  was  made  up  of  outstanding 
citizens  whose  understanding,  ability,  judgment  and  love  for  North 
Carolina  are  beyond  question.  The  commission  held  its  first  meeting  on 
July  14,  1965,  organized  and  began  work  immediately  on  its  assigned 
task  set  forth  in  your  resolution. 

Public  hearings  were  held  on  August  11  and  12,  1965,  and  September  8 
and  9,  1965,  in  the  State  Legislative  Building.  All  North  Carolinians  were 
given  an  opportunity  to  be  heard.  The  public  hearings  were  well  attended 
and    given    extensive    coverage    by    newspapers,    radio    and    television.    A 


16  HOUSE  JOURNAL  [Extra  Session 

complete  transcript  of  the  testimony  and  other  documents  was  taken  for 
consideration  by  the  Commission. 

On  November  5,  1965,  the  Speaker  Ban  Law  Study  Commission  made  its 
report  to  me  in  the  Hall  of  the  House  of  Representatives  at  the  State 
Capitol.  I  had  been  furnished  an  advance  copy  during  that  week  so  that  I 
could  study  the  contents  of  the  report  and  its  recommendations  prior 
to  release. 

I  approved  the  report  and  its  recommendations  without  any  reservations. 
I  immediately  sent  copies  of  the  Commission  report  and  my  statement  of 
approval  to  each  member  of  the  General  Assembly,  to  each  trustee  of  a 
state-supported  institution  of  higher  education,  to  the  president  of  each 
of  these  institutions  and  to  members  of  the  State  Board  of  Higher  Educa- 
tion. At  the  same  time,  I  also  requested  that  the  Boards  of  Trustees  of 
the  University  of  North  Carolina  and  all  other  state-supported  institutions 
of  higher  education  meet  on  or  before  Friday,  November  12,  1965,  for  the 
purpose  of  considering  and  adopting  the  speaker  policy  recommended  in 
the  Commission  report. 

I  am  pleased  to  report  to  you  that  the  Boards  of  Trustees  of  the 
University  and  our  other  state-supported  institutions  of  higher  education 
have  met,  considered  and  approved  without  modification  the  speaker 
policy  recommended  by  the  Study  Commission.  This  is  a  remarkable 
achievement  which  reflects  credit  upon  the  ability  of  our  trustees  to  unite 
in  a  constructive  action  to  do  what  is  best  for  North  Carolina  and  her 
institutions  of  higher  learning.  Our  trustees  have  measured  up  to  their 
responsibilities  as  outlined  by  the  Study  Commission,  and  I  commend  them 
for  their  public-spirited  actions. 

My  second  step  after  receiving  the  Commission  report  and  recommenda- 
tions was  to  call,  by  and  with  the  advice  and  assent  of  the  Council  of 
State,  this  extra-ordinary  session  of  the  General  Assembly  of  North 
Carolina  for  the  purpose  of  considering  the  recommended  amendments 
to  Chapter  1207  of  the  1963  Session  Laws  as  set  forth  in  the  Study  Com- 
mission report. 

I  fully  realize,  of  course,  that  the  Governor  has  no  power  to  limit  the 
deliberations  of  a  session  of  the  General  Assembly  of  North  Carolina. 
However,  in  view  of  the  gravity  and  complexity  of  the  Speaker  Ban 
controversy,  and  the  need  for  finding  a  reasonable,  rational  solution  to 
this  problem,  I  respectfully  recommend  that  the  members  of  the  General 
Assembly  agree  to  restrict  your  considerations  of  legislation  to  this  one 
proposed  bill.  This  has  been  done  before  in  North  Carolina. 

It  is  a  well-established  tradition  that  Tar  Heels  often  hold  and  express 
differing  points  of  view  on  matters  of  public  issues;  yet,  when  the  public 
interest  is  threatened,  we  can  rise  above  our  differences  and  settle  the 
controversy  calmly,  dispassionately  and  in  a  lawful,  orderly  manner. 

The  Study  Commission  report,  and  its  recommendations,  speak  for 
themselves.  It  is  unnecessary  that  I  repeat  its  findings,  and  I  hereby 
make  the  report,  and  its  recommendations,  a  matter  of  record  with  this 
message. 


1965]  HOUSE  JOURNAL  17 

I  am  convinced  that  the  legislation  recommended  in  the  report  of 
the  Commission,  'A  bill  entitled  an  act  to  amend  the  law  relating  to 
visiting  speakers  at  state-supported  institutions',  will  serve  the  best 
interests  of  the  State  of  North  Carolina  and  the  cause  of  higher  education 
in  our  State.  It  will  place  the  authority  and  responsibility  for  regulating 
visiting  speakers  with  the  Boards  of  Trustees  of  the  University  and  our 
other  state-supported  colleges.  This  bill  is  the  result  of  months  of  intensive 
study,  deliberation  and  consideration  by  a  dedicated  group  of  citizens 
appointed  at  your  direction.  I  recommend  it  to  you  both  in  letter  and 
in  spirit. 

The  Study  Commission  report  concludes  with  the  statement  that  'we 
must  seek  mutual  respect  and  a  middle  ground'.  We  do  indeed  need  to 
adopt  the  middle  ground  of  moderation  in  this  problem.  Judge  Learned 
Hand,  one  of  the  great  jurists  in  American  history,  denned  the  spirit  of 
moderation  as  'the  temper  which  does  not  press  a  partisan  advantage  to 
its  bitter  end,  which  can  understand  and  will  respect  the  other  side,  which 
feels  a  unity  between  all  citizens- — real  and  not  the  fictitious  product  of 
propaganda- — which  recognizes  their  common  fate  and  their  common 
aspirations.' 

Regardless  of  how  each  of  us  may  feel  about  the  exact  provisions  of  the 
existing  Speaker  Ban  Law,  the  public  controversy  arising  as  a  result  of 
this  law  is  damaging  to  the  State  of  North  Carolina.  It  is  dividing  our 
people  at  a  time  when  unity  is  needed  to  grasp  and  hold  the  great  oppor- 
tunities facing  our  State  and  Nation.  We  are  exhausting  our  energies 
which  should  be  better  directed  toward  building  a  better  state,  better 
institutions  of  higher  education  and  a  better  future  for  every  boy  and  girl 
in  North  Carolina. 

We  have  not  forgotten  that  our  Nation  is  at  war  with  worldwide 
Communism.  North  Carolinians  and  other  Americans  are  dying  in  the 
jungles  of  Viet  Nam  to  protect  our  freedom  here  at  home  and  across  the 
world.  All  of  us  who  enjoy  the  freedom  and  security  of  today  are  forever 
in  their  debt.  Their  sacrifices  have  stiffened  our  resolve  to  oppose  the 
spread  of  Communism  whether  it  comes  by  force  of  arms  or  by  infiltration 
in  our  society.  As  a  vetern  of  World  War  II,  I  know  from  first-hand 
experience  the  high  price  which  our  Nation  has  paid  to  enjoy  the  freedom 
and  security  of  today. 

However,  we  must  not  allow  our  steadfast  opposition  to  Communism  and 
totalitarianism  to  blind  us  from  the  facts  involved  in  the  Speak  Ban 
controversy.  The  proposed  legislation  simply  returns  the  authority  and 
responsibility  for  regulating  visiting  speakers  to  the  Board  of  Trustees 
of  the  University  and  our  other  state-supported  colleges.  I  am  convinced 
that  this  amendment  to  the  existing  law  will  end  the  bitter  controversy 
which  is  dividing  our  people  and  our  State. 

Ladies  and  gentlemen  of  the  General  Assembly,  let  us  accept  the  reason- 
able and  honorable  settlement  suggested  by  our  Speaker  Ban  Law  Study 
Commission.  If  you  will  support  legislation  as  recommended  by  the  Com- 
mission, there  will  be  no  defeat  for  anyone,  but  a  victory  for  all  the 
people  of  North  Carolina." 


18  HOUSE  JOURNAL  [Extra  Session 

Pursuant  to  remarks  contained  in  the  Governor's  message  and  by 
direction  of  Mr.  Speaker  Taylor,  the  Report  of  the  Commission  to  Study 
the  statutes  relating  to  visiting  speakers  at  state-supported  educational 
institutions  is  ordered  spread  on  the  Journal. 

REPORT  OF  COMMISSION  TO  STUDY  THE  STATUTES  RELATING  TO  VISITING  SPEAK- 
ERS   AT    STATE-SUPPORTED    EDUCATIONAL   INSTITUTIONS. 

"To  His  Excellency,  Dan  K.  Moore,  Governor  of  North  Carolina: 

This  report  is  made  to  you  pursuant  to  Resolution  Number  85  of  the 
1965  Session  of  the  General  Assembly  entitled  'A  Joint  Resolution  creating 
a  Commission  to  study  the  statutes  relating  to  visiting  speakers  at  state- 
supported  educational  institutions'. 

The  Commission  authorized  by  this  resolution  consists  of  nine  members 
appointed  as  follows:  Five  members  appointed  by  you,  namely,  Repre- 
sentatives David  M.  Britt,  Reverend  Ben  C.  Fisher,  William  T.  Joyner, 
Charles  F.  Myers  and  Mrs.  Elizabeth  G.  Swindell;  two  members  appointed 
by  the  President  of  the  Senate,  namely,  Senator  Gordon  Hanes  and  Senator 
J.  Russell  Kirby;  and  two  members  appointed  by  the  Speaker  of  the  House, 
namely,  Representative  Lacy  H.  Thornburg  and  Representative  A.  A. 
Zollicoffer,  Jr.  Pursuant  to  your  designation,  Representative  David  M. 
Britt  served  as  chairman. 

The  first  meeting  of  the  Commission  was  held  in  Raleigh  in  the  Legis- 
lative Building  on  July  14,  1965,  with  all  members  present.  Mrs.  Swindell 
was  elected  by  the  Commission  to  serve  as  secretary  and  Mrs.  P.  E.  Howell 
of  Raleigh  was  employed  to  render  clerical  services  to  the  Commission. 

At  the  initial  meeting  the  members  became  acquainted  with  duties  pro- 
vided in  the  resolution  and  discussed  various  ways  of  approaching  the 
work.  It  was  unanimously  decided  that  public  hearings  should  be  scheduled, 
at  which  all  of  the  state-supported  educational  institutions  affected  by  the 
law,  accrediting  agencies,  and  other  interested  parties  and  organizations 
would  be  provided  an  opportunity  to  be  heard. 

Public  hearings  were  held  on  August  11  and  12,  1965,  and  September 
8  and  9,  1965,  in  the  auditorium  of  the  Legislative  Building.  They  were 
well  attended  and  given  extensive  coverage  by  newspapers,  radio,  and 
television.  The  transcript  of  the  testimony  and  other  documents  considered 
by  the  Commission  are  filed  with  this  report. 

Under  the  provisions  of  the  resolution  the  Commission  was  charged  with 
the  duty  of  making  a  careful,  full  and  detailed  study  of  General  Statutes 
116-199  and  General  Statutes  116-200  (Chapter  1207  of  the  1963  Session 
Laws)  relating  to  visiting  speakers  at  state-supported  educational  insti- 
tutions of  higher  learning,  with  respect  particularly  to  the  following: 

1.  The  enforcement  of  the  statutes; 

2.  The  relationship,  if  any,  between  these  statutes  and  the  accreditation 
of  state-supported  institutions  by  accreditation  organizations  and  associ- 
ations ;

3.  The  effect  on  the  relationship  of  these  institutions  with  other  insti- 
tutions of  higher  learning;  and 

4.  The  impact  of  the  statutes  as  to  the  status,  administration,  reputation, 
functioning  and  future  development  of  state-supported  institutions. 

ENFORCEMENT    OF    THE    STATUTES 

At  its  initial  meeting  the  Commission  considered  the  legality  of  the 
statutes  and  authorized  the  chairman  to  appoint  a  subcommittee  to  give 
special  study  to  such  legality.  Inasmuch  as  five  members  of  the  Commission 
are  lawyers,  the  Chairman  constituted  them  a  subcommittee  for  this 
purpose. 

The  subcommittee  gave  careful  consideration  to  the  constitutionality 
of  the  statutes  and  considered  various  decisions  and  legal  memoranda  on 
the  question.  Among  these  was  a  memorandum  prepared  by  Deputy 
Attorney  General  Ralph  Moody  in  1963  and  also  a  supplement  thereto 
prepared  by  Mr.  Moody  at  the  request  of  the  Commission.  Another  memo- 
randum considered  was  that  of  Professor  William  Van  Alstyne  of  the 
Duke  University  School  of  Law.  Mr.  Moody  expressed  the  opinion  that  the 
laws  are  constitutional  and  are  a  proper  exercise  of  the  police  power  of 
the  State  of  North  Carolina.  Professor  Van  Alstyne  expressed  the  opinion 
that  the  laws  are  unconstitutional  insofar  as  the  Federal  Constitution  is 
concerned.  Other  memoranda  and  legal  articles  were  filed  with  and  con- 
sidered by  the  Commission. 

After  deliberation  and  discussion,  it  was  the  consenus  of  the  full  Com- 
mission that  the  problems  posed  by  these  statutes  should  be  approached 
on  a  much  broader  basis  than  a  strictly  legal  one;  therefore,  no  steps  are 
recommended  to  determine  the  validity  of  the  statutes. 

As  to  enforcement,  testimony  presented  at  the  hearings  by  officials  and 
administrators  of  the  various  educational  institutions  affected  by  the  law 
revealed  that  they  have  diligently  complied  with  the  law  and  the  Com- 
mission received  no  evidence  that  the  law  has  been  violated  since  its 
enactment  on  June  26,  1963. 

ACCREDITATION 

A  large  part  of  the  inquiry  of  the  Commission  was  directed  to  the 
matter  of  accreditation.  At  the  August  hearings  Dean  Emmett  B.  Fields 
of  Vanderbilt  University,  Chairman  of  the  Commission  on  Colleges,  South- 
ern Association  of  Colleges  and  Schools,  Inc.,  and  Mr.  Gordon  Sweet, 
Executive  Director  of  the  Southern  Association  of  Colleges  and  Schools, 
Inc.,  were  heard  and  questioned  in  great  detail.  The  agency  represented 
by  these  two  is  the  primary  accrediting  agency  for  all  colleges  and  univer- 
sities in  North  Carolina.  The  officials  of  this  agency  take  the  position  that 
these  statutes  'remove (s)  from  the  governing  boards  of  the  state  institu- 
tions of  higher  learning  in  North  Carolina,  their  traditional  authority  to 
handle  such  matters  with  administrative  discretion,'  and  'raise  (s)  an 
issue  of  interference  with  the  necessary  authority  of  the  boards.'.  Also 
on  the  matter  of  accreditation,  the  Commission  heard  from  Dr.  Frank  G.

20  HOUSE  JOURNAL  [Extra  Session 

Dickey,  Executive  Director  of  the  National  Commission  on  Accrediting, 
and  Dr.  W.  H.  Plemmons,  a  former  member  of  the  said  Commission  on 
Colleges. 

We  are  confident  that  the  Southern  Association  has  done  much  to  im- 
prove the  quality  of  education  in  the  South.  However,  this  Commission  is 
not  charged  with  the  responsibility  of  passing  upon  the  wisdom  of  the 
Association's  action  in  this  matter.  The  Commission  devoted  considerable 
time  to  studying  the  significance  of  accreditation  on  our  state-supported 
colleges  and  University.  Suffice  it  to  say  accreditation  means  much,  finan- 
cially and  otherwise.  For  any  institution  to  lose  accreditation  would  be 
substantially  damaging. 

RELATIONSHIP   WITH    OTHER   INSTITUTIONS 

In  various  ways  the  Commission  studied  the  effect  of  the  statutes  in 
question  on  the  relationship  of  our  institutions  with  other  institutions  of 
higher  learning.  These  studies  disclosed  that  there  is  a  closely  knit  bond 
between  the  educators  of  our  Country.  Grievances  of  administrators  and 
faculties  in  one  state  receive  the  concern  and  support  of  their  counterparts 
throughout  the  land.  In  fact,  such  grievances  in  one  or  more  schools 
receive  the  concern  and  support  of  counterparts  in  other  schools  of  the 
same  state,  as  indicated  by  the  'sympathetic  reaction'  to  the  subject 
statutes  of  the  administrators  and  faculties,  and  even  students,  of  several 
church  related  colleges  and  universities  in  North  Carolina. 

The  unrest  resulting  from  the  statutes  in  question  has  extended  far 
beyond  the  eleven  institutions  directly  affected.  It  would  appear  that,  unless 
the  unrest  is  removed,  entertaining  communists  could  become  glamorized 
in  our  state,  thereby  defeating  one  of  the  primary  purposes  of  the  statutes. 

IMPACT    OF    STATUTES 

In  considering  the  impact  of  the  statutes  in  question  on  our  state- 
supported  institutions  of  higher  learning,  we  must  consider  the  tangible 
and  the  intangible.  The  most  obvious  impact  would  come  from  loss  of 
accreditation,  if  such  should  occur,  inasmuch  as  many  financial  aids  which 
our  institutions  now  receive  are  not  provided  to  unaccredited  institutions. 
The  Commission  made  contact  with  numerous  federal  agencies  and  private 
foundations  and  although  some  of  the  aids  and  programs  provided  are  not 
dependent  upon  accreditation,  many  of  them  are,  and  with  others  accredita- 
tion would  be  a  factor.  For  example,  a  R.  0.  T.  C.  program  is  contingent 
upon  accreditation. 

As  to  the  intangible,  considerable  prestige  accompanies  accreditation.  We 
are  convinced  that  many  students  would  not  attend  any  of  our  eleven 
institutions  if  accreditation  were  lost,  due  partly  to  increased  difficulty 
in  securing  recognition  for  work  done  in  an  unaccredited  institution. 

Also  important  is  the  consideration  of  faculty  members.  The  demand  for 
qualified  faculty  members  far  exceeds  the  supply  and  this  promises  to  be 


1965]  HOUSE  JOURNAL  21 

the  case  for  many  years  to  come.  Loss  of  accreditation  would  make  it 
much  more  difficult  for  our  eleven  institutions  to  recruit  and  maintain 
adequate  faculties. 

CONCLUSION 

We  are  convinced  that  the  people  of  North  Carolina  are  strongly  opposed 
to  communism  and  all  other  forms  of  totalitarianism.  They  are  concerned 
about  the  expansion  of  atheistic  communism  throughout  the  world,  and 
this  concern  is  increased  by  the  mortal  conflict  that  is  now  raging  in 
Viet  Nam  and  other  places. 

Information  from  J.  Edgar  Hoover,  Director  of  the  Federal  Bureau  of 
Investigation,  and  other  reliable  sources  is  to  the  effect  that  the  tempo  of 
communist  efforts  in  the  United  States  is  being  speeded  up  and  that 
communists  are  taking  advantage  of  every  opportunity.  There  appears  no 
doubt  that  the  communists  consider  college  and  university  campuses  a 
fertile  field  for  their  work  and  this  has  been  evidenced  recently  by  the 
organization  of  radical  clubs  on  campuses  across  the  nation  and  the  infil- 
tration of  communists  into  certain  campuses  demonstrations  in  other  parts 
of  the  country. 

We  feel  that  the  1963  General  Assembly  was  sincere  in  its  enactment 
of  the  statutes  in  question  and  felt  that  it  was  'striking  a  blow'  for 
Democracy.  It  also  appears  that  the  General  Assembly  was  reflecting  the 
feeling  of  a  large  segment  of  the  population  of  North  Carolina  and  since 
the  enactment  of  these  statutes,  many  people  have  risen  to  their  support. 

On  the  other  hand,  it  is  quite  evident  that  many  members  of  the  1963 
General  Assembly  who  voted  for  the  statutes  did  not  foresee  the  far- 
reaching  effects  of  the  statutes.  It  is  our  judgment  that  the  primary 
objective  of  the  General  Assembly  was  to  prevent  communist  rabble  rousers 
and  their  kind  from  using  the  campuses  of  North  Carolina  as  a  forum  for 
their  evil  activities. 

During  the  public  hearings  held  by  this  Commission  much  was  said  about 
communism,  the  appearance  of  speakers  who  were  alleged  to  be  members 
of  the  Communist  Party,  and  the  presence  in  the  student  bodies  of  students 
who  individually,  and  by  group  activity,  were  active  ultra-liberals. 

A  careful  review  of  this  testimony  indicates  that  these  statements  and 
allegations  were  directed  primarily  at  the  University  of  North  Carolina  at 
Chapel  Hill,  covering  the  period  from  1937  to  1965.  This  testimony  dis- 
closes that  in  more  than  a  quarter  of  a  century  fewer  than  a  dozen  speak- 
ers from  among  the  thousands  who  have  appeared  during  these  years  were 
specifically  mentioned  as  extremists  and  not  all  of  these  were  alleged  to 
be  communists.  Among  students,  not  more  than  five  were  singled  out  from 
among  the  more  than  40,000  who  have  graduated  from  the  Chapel  Hill 
campus  over  this  span  of  time. 

The  testimony  shows  that  the  University  would  not  knowingly  employ 
a  member  of  the  Communist  Party  in  any  capacity,  and  direct  testimony 
by  its  officers  indicates  that  no  such  person  is  employed.   No  evidence  to 


22  HOUSE  JOURNAL  [Extra  Session 

the  contrary  was  presented  to,  disclosed  to,  or  discovered  by  the  Com- 
mission. We  also  note  that  all  members  of  the  faculty  and  staff  have 
formally  affirmed  their  allegiance  to  the  Constitutions  of  the  United  States 
and  the  State  of  North  Carolina.  We  review  these  allegations  here  because 
we  gave  ample  notice  to  all  persons  who  wished  to  appear  before  the  Com- 
mission, or  felt  that  they  had  pertinent  information,  to  do  so.  The  evidence 
before  this  Commission  failed  to  disclose  that  the  faculty  of  the  University 
at  Chapel  Hill  is  infiltrated  by  communists.  The  evidence  shows  that  the 
University  does  not  foster  or  encourage  any  political  doctrine  that  would 
suppress  the  liberty  or  freedom  of  any  individual. 

We  believe  that  it  is  highly  desirable  that  students  have  the  opportunity 
to  question,  review  and  discuss  the  opinions  of  speakers  representing  a 
wide  range  of  viewports.  It  is  vital  to  our  success  in  supporting  our  free 
society  against  all  forms  of  totalitarianism  that  institutions  remain  free 
to  examine  these  ideologies  in  a  manner  consistent  with  educational 
objectives. 

The  evidence  before  us  fails  to  justify  charges  of  irresponsible  radicalism 
at  Chapel  Hill.  There  have  been  and  will  always  be  individuals  who  express 
themselves  in  ways  that,  to  some,  are  disturbing  because  they  are  unor- 
thodox and  the  larger  the  institution  becomes,  the  more  it  is  likely  to 
attract  this  type  of  individual. 

The  University  of  North  Carolina  at  Chapel  Hill  is  a  great  institution 
that  has  served  the  State  well.  Members  of  the  General  Assembly  and  all 
citizens  of  our  state  are  justifiably  interested  in  our  University.  There  is 
no  evidence  before  us  of  any  plot,  plan,  campaign,  or  conspiracy  by  anyone 
to  injure  the  University  or  any  state-supported  college. 

Although  most  of  the  discussion  about  the  statutes  in  question  has  been 
related  to  the  University  at  Chapel  Hill,  the  impact  of  these  statutes  affects 
all  four  campuses  of  our  University  as  well  as  the  eleven  colleges  sup- 
ported by  the  State.  There  was  no  evidence  before  the  Commission  that 
a  communist  has  ever  appeared  as  a  visiting  speaker  or  otherwise  at  these 
other  institutions.  Accreditation  means  much  to  all  branches  of  the  Uni- 
versity, but  it  means  at  least  as  much,  if  not  more,  to  the  other  eleven 
institutions.  Loss  of  accreditation  would  be  far  reaching  in  its  damage, 
not  only  from  the  standpoint  of  financial  benefits  but  also  from  the  stand- 
point of  attracting  students,  the  transfer  of  credits  of  students,  the 
recruitment  of  faculty  members  and  the  retention  of  fully  dedicated 
teachers  and  staff  members. 

The  public  hearings  conducted  by  this  Commission  have  provided  the 
people  of  North  Carolina  with  a  wealth  of  information  about  our  institut- 
tions  and  the  effects  of  the  statutes  in  question.  It  is  the  opinion  of  this 
Commission  that  a  large  majority  of  the  people  of  our  State  realize  the 
great  need  of  education  at  all  levels  and  that  they  do  not  favor  legislation 
which  will  jeopardize  the  best  educational  opportunities  for  our  youth. 

It  is  also  our  opinion  that  the  trustees  of  our  educational  institutions 
should  assume  more  responsibility  for  the  operation  of  our  institutions 
and  should  be  constantly  on  the  alert  for  anything  that  would  be  harmful 


1965]  HOUSE  JOURNAL  23 

to  our  institutions  and  to  the  educational  programs  they  promote.  The 
Trustees  of  our  Institutions  constitute  a  vital  link  between  the  institu- 
tions they  represent  and  the  people  of  North  Carolina. 

Finally,  we  conclude  that  education  at  all  levels  in  North  Carolina,  and 
the  continued  progress  and  welfare  of  our  State,  require  that  the  statutes 
in  question  be  amended  to  impose  responsibility  for  the  subject  matter  of 
the  statutes  in  question  on  the  trustees  of  our  institutions;  provided,  that 
the  trustees  give  assurance  of  their  willingness  to  accept  this  responsibility 
and  particularly  with  regard  to  the  subject  matter  of  these  statutes. 

Academic  freedom  requires  academic  responsibility.  We  specifically 
state  that  our  recommendations  should  not  be  construed  to  mean  that 
we  necessarily  agree  with  all  the  educators  who  appeared  before  this 
Commission  on  the  question  of  academic  freedom.  The  fact  is  that  our 
concern  about  the  current  unrest  in  educational  circles  in  our  State  leads 
us  to  the  conclusion  that  the  stakes  are  so  high  that  responsible  people, 
both  educators  and  others,  must  strive  for  some  solution  that  will  settle 
this  controversy  for  the  foreseeable  future. 

The  fires  of  intolerance  will  surely  injure  the  process  of  education. 
To  solve  our  problem,  to  quench  the  fires  now  burning,  it  is  necessary  that 
the  people  on  one  side  of  the  controversy  be  more  understanding  and 
tolerant  of  the  honest  views  of  the  people  on  the  other  side.  We  must  seek 
mutual  respect  and  a  middle  ground. 

To  that  end  we  direct  our  recommendations. 

RECOMENDATIONS 

1.  Subject  to  Recommendation  No.  2,  we  recommend  that  Chapter  1207 
of  the  1963  Session  Laws  be  amended  so  as  to  vest  the  trustees  of  the 
institutions  affected  by  it  not  only  with  the  authority  but  also  with  the 
responsibility  of  adopting  and  publishing  rules  and  precautionary  meas- 
ures relating  to  visiting  speakers  covered  by  said  Act  on  the  campuses  of 
said  institutions.  We  submit  as  a  part  of  this  report  a  proposed  legislative 
bill  to  accomplish  this  purpose. 

2.  We  recommend  that  each  of  the  Boards  of  Trustees  of  said  institutions 
adopt  the  Speaker  Policy  hereto  attached  and  made  a  part  of  this  Report. 

3.  In  order  that  this  important  matter  might  be  settled  forthwith,  we 
recommend  that  you,  The  Governor  of  North  Carolina,  request  the  board 
of  trustees  of  the  affected  institutions  to  assemble  as  soon  as  practicable 
for  purpose  of  giving  consideration  to  the  aforementioned  Speaker  Policy, 
and  at  such  time  as  it  has  been  adopted  by  the  said  boards  of  all  of  said 
institutions,  that  you  cause  to  be  called  an  extraordinary  Session  of  the 
General  Assembly  for  purpose  of  considering  amendments  to  Chapter 
1207  of  the  1963  Sessions  Laws  as  hereinbefore  set  forth.

SPEAKER   POLICY 

The  Trustees  recognize  that  this  Institution,  and  every  part  thereof, 
is  owned  by  the  people  of  North  Carolina;  that  it  is  operated  by  duly 
selected  representatives  and  personnel  for  the  benefit  of  the  people  of 
our  state. 

The  Trustees  of  this  Institution  are  unalterably  opposed  to  communism 
and  any  other  ideology  or  form  of  government  which  has  as  its  goal  the 
destruction  of  our  basic  democratic  institutions. 

We  recognize  that  the  total  program  of  a  college  or  university  is  com- 
mitted to  an  orderly  process  of  inquiry  and  discussion,  ethical  and  moral 
excellence,  objective  instruction,  and  respect  for  law.  An  essential  part 
of  the  education  of  each  student  at  this  Institution  is  the  opportunity 
to  hear  diverse  viewpoints  expressed  by  speakers  properly  invited  to 
the  campus.  It  is  highly  desirable  that  students  have  the  opportunity  to 
question,  review  and  discuss  the  opinions  of  speakers  representing  a  wide 
range  of  viewpoints. 

It  is  vital  to  our  success  in  supporting  our  free  society  against  all  forms 
of  totalitarianism  that  institutions  remain  free  to  examine  these  ideologies 
to  any  extent  that  will  serve  the  educational  purposes  of  our  institutions 
and  not  the  purposes  of  the  enemies  of  our  free  society. 

We  feel  that  the  appearance  as  a  visiting  speaker  on  our  campus  of 
one  who  was  prohibited  under  Chapter  1207  of  the  1963  Session  Laws 
(The  Speaker  Ban  Law)  or  who  advocates  any  ideology  or  form  of 
government  which  is  wholly  alien  to  our  basic  democratic  institutions 
should  be  infrequent  and  then  only  when  it  would  clearly  serve  the  advan- 
tage of  education;  and  on  such  rare  occasions  reasonable  and  proper  care 
should  be  exercised  by  the  institution.  The  campuses  shall  not  be  exploited 
as  convenient  outlets  of  discord  and  strife. 

We  therefore  provide  that  we  the  Trustees  together  with  the  adminis- 
tration of  this  Institution  shall  be  held  responsible  and  accountable  for 
visiting  speakers  on  our  campuses.  And  to  that  end  the  administration  will 
adopt  rules  and  precautionary  measures  consistent  with  the  policy  herein 
set  forth  regarding  the  invitations  to  and  appearance  of  visiting  speakers. 
These  rules  and  precautionary  measures  shall  be  subject  to  the  approval 
of  the  Trustees."

institutions,  is  recognized  for  a  resume  of  the  Commission's  hearings  and 
explanation  of  the  bills  before  the  Joint  Committee  of  the  Whole. 

Mr.  Speaker  Taylor  recognizes  Mr.  Horace  M.  DuBose,  Attorney  of

STATEMENT   BY    MEMBER 

November  16,  1965 

Mr.  Speaker: 

I  desire  to  insert  this  statement  in  the  record  on  H.  B.  1. 

In  the  1963  Session  of  the  General  Assembly,  I  was  one  of  the  eight 
introducers  of  the  legislation  prohibiting  known  Communists,  Fifth 
Amendment  pleaders,  and  persons  conspiring  to  overthrow  our  form  of 
Government  from  speaking  at  North  Carolina  State  supported  institu- 
tions. I  sincerely  believe  that  this  law  has  served  a  very  useful  purpose 
and  that  the  general  public  is  overwhelmingly  in  favor  of  safeguards 
intended  in  this  legislation.  However,  I  feel  that  by  placing  the  responsi- 
bility of  compliance  of  this  legislation  in  the  hands  of  the  various  boards 
of  trustees  that  they  will  carry  out  the  wishes  of  the  general  public.  I 
join  what  I  consider  the  majority  opinion  in  North  Carolina  in  restating 
that  I  am  unalterably  opposed  to  any  known  Communists  in  any  category, 
speaking  on  the  campuses  of  our  State  supported  institutions.  Since  all 
these  trustees  are  either  elected  directly,  or  approved  by  the  North 
Carolina  General  Assembly,  I  feel  that  it  would  be  impossible  for  a 
Communist  sympathizer  to  serve  on  any  of  these  boards  of  trustees.

1965]  HOUSE  JOURNAL  31 

THIRD  DAY 

House  of  Representatives 
Wednesday,  November  17,  1965 

The  House  meets  pursuant  to  adjournment  and  is  called  to  order  by 
Mr.  Speaker  Taylor. 

Prayer  is  offered  by  the  Reverend  Alphonso  Jordan,  House  Chaplain. 

Representative  Wood,  for  the  Committee  on  the  Journal,  reports  the 
Journal  of  yesterday  has  been  examined,  found  correct,  and  without  objec- 
tion the  same  stands  approved  as  written. 

On  motion  of  Representative  O'Hanlon  and  Representative  Bennett  of 
Carteret  the  following  remarks  made  before  the  Joint  Committee  of  the 
Whole  House  and  Senate  by  the  Senator  from  Lenoir,  Honorable  Thomas 
White,  are  ordered  spread  on  the  House  Journal: 

"Mr.  President,  Mr.  Speaker,  Fellow  Members  of  the  General  Assembly: 

I  do  not  arise  to  impugn  the  motives  nor  to  criticise  the  judgments  of 
any  man  nor  any  group  of  men.  We  all  acknowledge  the  sincere  and  dedi- 
cated service  of  the  distinguished  and  able  members  of  the  Commission 
appointed  to  study  the  law  to  which  our  attention  is  now  directed,  and 
which  deeply  concerns  the  people  of  our  state. 

I  do  arise  to  say  that  this  is  indeed  a  sad  day  for  North  Carolina,  and 
a  dark  day  for  our  General  Assembly- — -acknowledging  that  there  have 
been  many  who  think  otherwise,  the  record  of  the  General  Assembly  of 
North  Carolina  has  been  one  in  which  its  members  and  our  citizens  gen- 
erally can  take  pride — and  today,  or  tomorrow,  or  before  this  week  has 
ended  the  General  Assembly  of  North  Carolina  as  we  have  known  and 
revered  it,  may  pass  into  history.  The  votes  you  cast  this  week  may  be 
the  last  you  will  ever  cast  in  a  General  Assembly  which  down  through 
the  years  has  been  honored  and  made  great  in  part  by  the  contributions 
of  the  dedicated  services  of  men  sent  here  by  the  little  counties  of  North 
Carolina  along  with  the  services  of  men  sent  here  by  the  people  of  our 
larger  and  more  populous  counties. 

And  this  day  is  made  more  sad  because  it  appears  that  we  are  urged 
to  cast  this  last  vote  which  we  are  privileged  to  cast,  as  a  member  of  this 
great  body  in  a  certain  way,  under  the  dark  shadow  of  threats  urged  upon 
us,  and  under  extreme  pressure  which  would  rob  us  of  the  privilege  of 
exercising  our  votes  in  accordance  with  the  known  wishes  of  the  people  of 
North  Carolina. 

We  all  have  learned  that  honest  men  may  honestly  disagree  on  issues 
confronting  the  people  of  our  state.  No  man  knows  better  than  I  know  that 
there  are  times  when  other  men  do  not  share  my  views.  Yet  I  also  know 
that  there  are  many  times  when  men  are  restrained  by  expediency  or  by 
personal  pressures  from  expressing  agreement  with  views  of  others  in- 
cluding my  own,  for  which  they  would  fervently  like  to  vote,  but  do  not. 
Each  of  us  has  the  right  to  stand  upon  his  or  her  own  convictions — and 
in  this  sad  day — an  under  the  dark  shadow  of  the  threats  which  would 


32  HOUSE  JOURNAL  [Extra  Session 

direct  our  action,  it  seems  to  me  that  our  votes  should  now  of  all  times 
reflect  the  wishes  of  our  people  as  we  know  them. 

More  than  13  years  ago,  in  a  hard  fought  primary  election  I  won  the 
right  to  represent  my  county  of  Lenoir  in  the  House  of  Representatives 
of  the  North  Carolina  General  Assembly — that  bright  galaxy  of  dedicated 
men  whose  judgments  rarely  depart  from  the  known  wishes  of  the  people. 
It  was  my  high  privilege  to  serve  in  that  distinguished  body  in  the 
sessions  1953,  1955  and  1957,  and  with  some  of  you  who  sit  before  me  now. 
I  am  proud  to  have  served  in  the  House — always  it  will  seem  like  home 
to  me.  And,  when  I  began  my  service  here  it  seemed  to  me  that  'never  yet 
had  heaven  appeared  so  blue,  nor  earth  so  green'  as  when  I  thus  embarked 
upon  the  service  of  my  state.  I  knew  that  if  I  were  diligent,  and  faithful 
to  the  trust,  I  could  find  some  way  to  demonstrate  my  love  for  our  great 
State  and  make  a  contribution  to  her  government. 

I  am  no  less  proud  to  be  a  member  of  the  Senate  of  North  Carolina  and 
to  have  had  the  privilege  of  serving  in  that  Body  in  the  sessions  of  1961, 
1963  and  1965,  and  of  working  with  that  distinguished  body  of  dedicated 
public  servants  whose  wisdom  and  sound  judgments  complement  and  join 
with  those  of  the  members  of  the  House  in  our  joint  effort  to  do  as  near 
as  we  are  able  to  do,  that  which  is  best  for  the  people  of  our  state. 

History  tells  us,  and  we  have  often  been  otherwise  assured,  that  the 
General  Assembly  of  North  Carolina  is  reputed  to  be  the  most  powerful 
legislative  body  on  earth.  This  is  the  General  Assembly  of  the  one  state 
in  the  50  states  which  comprise  the  greatest  nation  in  the  history  of  the 
world,  which  denies  to  its  Governor  the  veto  power.  The  General  Assembly 
of  North  Carolina  can,  within  constitutional  limits,  do  what  it  wants  to  do. 

Until  now  I  have  regarded  this  reputation  of  our  General  Assembly 
as  unquestioned,  and  its  great  power  as  a  fact.  Will  we  preserve  for  pos- 
terity the  respect  which  comes  with  this  reputation  and  power  of  our 
General  Assembly?  God  forbid  that  we  besmirch  it  in  the  last  days  of  the 
existence  of  this  Great  Body  as  it  is  yet  constituted,  by  permitting  its  last 
acts  to  be  directed  by  a  threat — any  kind  of  a  threat  from  any  source.  We 
are  not  called  here  in  haste  to  deliberate  upon  anything.  Except  for  the 
record  we  are  not  asked  to  exercise  our  own  judgments.  We  are  urged  to 
follow  a  course  laid  down  for  us — and  the  urgency  of  the  call  stems  from 
the  alleged  threat  of  damage  to  our  University  by  an  agency  which  has  no 
right  nor  any  just  cause  to  damage  it- — and  the  threat  of  impending  action 
of  a  Federal  Court — the  exact  character  of  which  cannot  be  predicted. 

Thus  are  we  asked  to  bow  the  sovereignty  of  our  state  to  the  threat 
emanating  from  an  association  nurtured  in  part  by  some  who  are  chiefest 
among  the  beneficiaries  of  the  tax  money  paid  into  the  treasury  of  our 
state  by  the  people  of  North  Carolina  and  distributed  by  the  General 
Assembly.  I  am  confident  that  those  who  are  pleased  with  the  'study'  made 
of  this  matter,  and  with  the  recommendations  of  the  study  commission 
take  comfort  in  the  thought  that  after  a  time  the  people  will  cool  down; 
that  they  will  philosophize  that  the  damage  has  been  done;  that  any  evil 
of  the  recommended  action  or  its  hurt  to  the  consciences  of  the  people  will 
have  been  suffered  and  the  force  of  this  blow  absorbed.   They  may  even 


1965]  HOUSE  JOURNAL  33 

feel  that  if  we  pass  this  bill  the  people  will  accept  without  protest  the 
recommended  compromising  by  us  of  an  issue  poignant  to  them. 

I  do  not  join  my  respected  colleagues  in  this  judgment  of  the  intelligence 
and  patriotism  of  our  people.  We  have  the  right  and  the  power,  if  we 
choose  to  exercise  it,  to  continue  at  least  until  a  safer  time  the  protection 
which  the  people  now  have — and  but  for  these  threats  would  undoubtedly 
remain  intact.  In  my  judgment  most  people  will  not  soon  forget  the  action 
of  Legislators  who  substitute  their  own  judgment  in  a  matter  of  this 
nature  and  importance  for  the  known  wishes  of  the  people.  I  know  not 
what  you  may  do,  but  for  my  part  I  will  not  follow  the  course  urged  upon 
us  in  the  shadow  of  these  threats. 

I  am  sure  you  join  me  in  a  profound  respect  for  our  great  Governor, 
and  that  you  hold  him,  as  I  do,  in  highest  esteem  and  affection!  I  am  sure 
that  you  also  share  my  great  respect  for  the  dedicated  and  sincere  mem- 
bers of  the  Study  Commission  of  which  our  much  respected  and  beloved 
colleague  David  Britt  was  Chairman.  I  know  that  they  are  completely 
honest  and  sincere  in  their  recommendations,  but  I  cannot  become  a  party 
to  the  surrender  or  to  the  apparent  surrender  of  the  Sovereignty  of  our 
State  for  any  reason,  for  any  purpose  or  for  any  expediency — and  least 
of  all  to  the  end  that  we  may  temporize  with  those  who  would  provide  our 
worst  enemies  with  the  cloak  of  respectability  and  with  a  forum  and  a 
platform  at  state  expense — whether  this  be  done  frequently  or  infrequently. 

The  surrender  or  the  compromise  of  the  sovereignty  of  our  state  is  the 
prerogative  of  the  people.  I  regret  that  we  are  called  upon  to  act  under 
such  circumstances  as  to  damage  the  reputation  and  integrity  of  this 
General  Assembly  as  a  Legislative  Body.  I  am  sure  that  no  one  intended 
such  a  result.  But  in  my  opinion,  so  long  as  we  may  be  asked  or  required 
to  act  pursuant  to  or  in  the  light  of  threats,  such  a  result  is  inescapable. 

If  we  follow  the  course  laid  down  for  us  at  this  time,  the  reputation  of 
the  General  Assembly  of  North  Carolina  as  the  most  powerful  Legislative 
Body  on  earth  crumbles  into  dust.  There  are  those  to  whom  this  means 
nothing,  and  many  are  they  among  them  who  see  nothing  wrong  or  de- 
grading about  acting  under  a  threat. 

I  deplore  and  lament  the  situation  in  which  we  find  ourselves.  For  this 
we  do  not  blame  our  colleagues  or  others  who  urged  the  call  of  this  special 
session  upon  the  9th  day  after  the  report  of  the  Study  Commission  was  made 
public.  The  blame  must  lie  upon  a  chain  of  unfortunate  and  uncalled  for 
events  which  precipitated  a  situation  in  which  members  of  the  General 
Assembly  are  asked  to  yield  to  the  fear  of  threats  and  to  act  as  recom- 
mended. To  me  this  situation  is  intolerable. 

With  great  respect  and  in  all  humility  I  suggest  that  we  call  upon  our 
experience,  our  ingenuity  and  our  energies  in  these  last  hours  of  our 
General  Assembly  as  it  is  yet  constituted,  to  find  a  less  unhappy  issue  out 
of  our  affliction  than  to  succumb  to  these  threats. 

Let  each  of  those  who  pose  these  threats  act  first.  Then  let  us  meet  them 
and  deal  with  them  as  the  consequences  may  require.  It  has  been  said 
that  the  'stakes  are  high'.  I  agree  that  the  stakes  are  high.  But,  they  are 


34  HOUSE  JOURNAL  [Extra  Session 

not  so  high  that  we  should  prostitute  the  honor,  and  record  and  the 
integrity  of  this  distinguished  body  upon  the  altar  of  fear  and  appre- 
hension. To  do  so  is  not  in  the  North  Carolina  tradition. 

If  we  follow  the  course  laid  down  for  us  we  could  soon  go  home  to  a 
disappointed  and  disillusioned  people. 

Let  us  rather  re-dedicate  ourselves  now  to  act  in  the  tradition  of  the 
General  Assembly  of  North  Carolina  without  fear  and  with  honor. 

Let  us  say  to  those  who  threaten  us  that  never  yet  has  this  Honorable 
Body  bowed  to  the  dictation  of  any  outside  force  and  that  we  will  not 
bow  down  now. 

I  pray  that  when  we  leave  these  stately  halls  we  will  have  no  remorse 
for  past  actions  nor  regrets  for  lost  opportunities. 

I  hope  that  when  we  return  to  our  homes  that  our  people  can  say  to 
each  of  us  'Well  done,  thou  good  and  faithful  servant'.

On  motion  of  Representative  Uzzell,  the  remarks  made  by  Mr.  Speaker 
Taylor  on  yesterday,  Tuesday,  November  16,  1965  and  by  Representative 
Britt  on  Monday,  November  15,  1965  are  spread  on  the  Journal. 

"If  we  adopt  this  amendment,  I  am  afraid  rather  than  end  the  contro- 
versy we  are  going  to  inflame  the  State  of  North  Carolina  for  some  eight 
months  to  come  in  the  bitterest  sort  of  debate  one  way  or  the  other.  We 
are  not  going  to  be  able  to  be  working  on  things  that  we  should  work  on. 
The  Governor  of  North  Carolina  would  never  have  taken  the  position  that 
he  has  taken  if  he  hadn't  felt  like  that  this  matter  ought  to  meet  that  test. 
If  you  don't  think  this  Commission  has  made  a  good  report — vote  against 
it.  But,  please  don't  let  this  matter  continue  on  and  be  submitted  at  a 
general  election  in  the  State  of  North  Carolina;  and,  so  I  apologize  to  you 
for  coming  down  and  speaking,  but  I  feel  so  strongly  on  it  that  I  wanted 
to  express  my  personal  opinion. 

s/  H.  P.  Taylor,  Jr." 

"Mr.  President,  Mr.  Speaker  and  Fellow  Members  of  the  General  Assembly: 

This  opportunity  is  taken  to  provide  you  with  a  report  from  the  Com- 
mission which  you  authorized  in  the  1965  Regular  Session  to  study  the 
Speaker  Ban  Law.  Pursuant  to  your  action  at  that  time  a  nine  member 
commission  was  appointed.  At  the  outset  I  express  my  appreciation  for 
the  eight  outstanding  persons  who  were  chosen  to  serve  with  me  in  this 
important  matter. 

Under  the  resolution  authorizing  the  Commission  we  were  directed 
particularly  to  consider  the  so-called  Speaker  Ban  Statutes  with  respect 
to  enforcement  of  the  statutes;  the  relationship,  if  any,  between  these 
statutes  and  the  accrediation  of  state-supported  institutions  by  accredi- 
tation organizations  and  associations;  the  effect  on  the  relationship  of 
these  institutions  with  other  institutions  of  higher  learning;  and  the  impact 


1965]  HOUSE  JOURNAL  35 

of  the   statutes   as   to   the   status,   administration,    reputation,   functioning 
and  future  development  of  state-supported  institutions. 

Pursuant  to  these  guidelines,  the  Commission  scheduled  public  hearings 
which  were  held  here  in  the  auditorium  of  the  Legislative  Building  and 
I  deem  it  appropriate  to  provide  you  with  a  brief  review  of  those  public 
hearings. 

On  August  11,  1965  we  heard  from  representatives  of  the  Southern 
Association  of  Colleges  and  Schools.  They  contended  that  the  Speaker 
Ban  Law  violated  the  principle  and  policy  of  their  organization  prohibiting 
political  interference  with  the  operation  of  institutions  accredited  by  their 
organization.  These  representatives  were  not  only  heard  but  were  ques- 
tioned in  great  detail  by  members  of  the  Commission. 

On  this  same  date  we  heard  from  the  Acting  Director  of  the  State  Board 
of  Higher  Education,  who  at  our  request,  had  contacted  various  federal 
agencies  to  determine  the  relation  of  accreditation  to  participation  in  their 
programs.  We  also  considered  communications  from  private  foundations. 

On  this  same  date  we  heard  Representative  Philip  Godwin,  the  in- 
troducer of  the  Speaker  Ban  Law  in  the  1963  General  Assembly.  We  felt 
that  it  would  be  in  order,  pursuant  to  legislative  custom,  to  hear  from 
the  introducer  of  the  bill  in  order  that  he  hight  explain  the  same  and  the 
intent  and  purposes  of  the  bill. 

On  August  12,  1965,  we  devoted  the  morning  session  to  hearing  from 
the  American  Association  of  University  Professors.  Representatives  of  this 
organization  contended  that  the  Speaker  Ban  Law  violated  the  principle 
of  academic  freedom.  They  were  questioned  at  great  length  by  members  of 
the  Commission  about  this  matter. 

The  entire  afternoon  session  on  August  12,  1965,  was  devoted  to  hearing 
from  the  North  Carolina  Department  of  the  American  Legion. 

We  then  scheduled  additional  hearings  for  September  8  and  9,  1965.  In 
order  to  determine  what  adverse  effect,  if  any,  the  Speaker  Ban  Law  had 
caused  or  might  cause  to  the  educational  institutions  covered  by  it,  we 
invited  the  presidents  of  all  twelve  institutions  to  appear  before  us.  In 
contacting  them  we  asked  them  to  provide  us  with  their  answers  to  the 
following  questions:  'Has  the  Speaker  Ban  Law  injured  your  institution 
and,  if  so,  how?  Will  the  Speaker  Ban  Law  probably  injure  your  institu- 
tion and,  if  so,  how?' 

At  the  closing  session  on  August  12,  1965,  we  notified  the  general  public 
by  means  of  television,  radio  and  the  press  that  if  any  group  or  individual 
desired  to  be  heard  by  the  Commission  to  please  notify  the  Chairman  at 
his  home  address. 

On  September  8,  1965,  the  entire  day  was  devoted  to  hearing  from  the 
Chairman  of  the  State  Board  of  Higher  Education;  the  President,  Chan- 
cellors and  certain  Trustees  of  the  University  of  North  Carolina;  Mr. 
Frank  Dickey  of  the  National  Accreditation  Association;  and  the  Presi- 
dents of  the  eleven  colleges  receiving  state  support. 


36  HOUSE  JOURNAL  [Extra  Session 

Without  exception  these  administrators  stated  that  their  i-espective  in- 
stitutions had  been  hurt  or  probably  would  be  hurt  by  the  Speaker  Ban 
Law,  particularly  in  the  matter  of  accreditation. 

In  a  full  day  session  on  September  9,  1965  the  Commission  heard  from 
the  following:  Mr.  Ralph  Clontz,  Jr.,  Charlotte  attorney,  who  was  an 
undercover  agent  for  the  F.  B.  I.  in  the  late  40's  or  early  50's  when 
Communist  activities  at  Chapel  Hill  were  being  investigated;  Mr.  Clontz's 
appearance  being  at  the  request  of  the  Chairman  of  the  Commission  follow- 
ing suggestion  by  a  representative  of  the  American  Legion;  former 
Governor  Luther  Hodges;  Mr.  John  A  Wilkinson  of  Washington,  N.  C; 
representing  the  Alliance  of  Conservative  Republicans;  Mr.  John  G.  Thomas, 
Director  of  News,  Radio  Station  WCKB,  Dunn,  N.  C;  Mr.  Charles  Aycock 
Poe,  Raleigh  attorney;  Mr.  Hugh  A.  Wells,  Raleigh  attorney;  Mr.  James 
B.  McMillan,  Attorney  of  Charlotte  and  other  U.  N.  C. — C.  H.  alumni;  Dr. 
Lee  Wiley  of  the  U.  N.  C. — C.  H.  faculty;  Mr.  Ed  Croem,  representing 
the  Teen-Dems  of  North  Carolina;  Mr.  Walter  Turner,  Chairman  of 
College  Young  Democrats  of  North  Carolina;  Dr.  Leslie  W.  Syron,  repre- 
senting the  American  Association  of  University  Women;  Dr.  Richard  E. 
Gift,  representing  the  Davidson  College  Chapter  of  the  American  Associa- 
tion of  University  Professors;  Mr.  Bill  Goodman,  State  Commander  of 
the  Veterans  of  Foreign  Wars,  and  Representative  Steve  Dolley,  Jr., 
representing  this  organization;  Senator  Thomas  J.  White;  Drs.  Harold 
K.  Dudley,  Everette  K.  Brown,  and  B.  Frank  Hall,  representing  the 
Presbyterian  Synod  of  North  Carolina;  and  Presidents  of  the  Student 
Bodies  of  the  University  of  North  Carolina  at  Chapel  Hill,  North  Carolina 
State  University  and  Wake  Forest  College. 

We  mention  the  fact  that  each  and  every  person  who  asked  for  the 
opportunity  to  be  heard  was  given  this  opportunity  except  three.  One  of 
these  three  was  a  former  State  Senator  who  attended  the  hearings  on 
September  9  and  requested  the  Chairman  to  be  heard  if  time  would  permit; 
hearing  from  those  who  had  made  previous  requests  to  be  heard  consumed 
all  of  the  afternoon  and  the  former  Senator  agreed  that  there  was  no 
time;  he  was  an  opponent  of  the  Speaker  Ban  Law.  The  second  person  was 
a  citizen  of  a  neighboring  county  who  wrote  the  Chairman  a  day  or  two 
prior  to  the  hearings  and  enclosed  certain  information  for  each  member 
of  the  Commission;  it  was  the  Chairman's  understanding  that  this  citizen 
merely  wanted  the  information  distributed  to  each  member  of  the  Com- 
mission and  was  not  asking  to  be  heard  personally  but  he  has  indicated 
otherwise  since  that  time.  The  third  person  was  a  citizen  of  Cabarrus 
County  who  wrote  the  Chairman  but  the  letter  was  not  received  until  after 
September  9,  1965,  and  in  view  of  the  fact  that  there  were  no  other  re- 
quests the  Chairman  did  not  see  fit  to  schedule  a  further  hearing  for 
purpose  of  hearing  from  one  citizen. 

We  review  the  foregoing  to  emphasize  that  full  notice  was  given  to  the 
effect  that  any  person  or  organization  that  wanted  to  be  heard  would  be 
heard  and  that  if  any  person  or  organization  had  any  information  that 
would  be  helpful  to  the  Commission  in  discharging  its  duties  to  please 
provide  the  Commission  with  that  information. 


1965]  HOUSE  JOURNAL  37 

Of  the  approximately  25  people  appearing1  on  September  9,  1965,  five 
were  opposed  to  any  change  in  the  Speaker  Ban  Law,  they  being:  Mr. 
John  A.  Wilkinson,  Mr.  John  G.  Thomas,  Mr.  Bill  Goodman,  Representa- 
tive Steve  Dolley,  Jr.  and  Senator  Thomas  J.  White. 

Special  mention  is  made  of  the  testimony  of  Mr.  Ralph  Clontz,  Jr. 
Commission  members  questioned  him  at  considerable  length  regarding 
Communism  and  the  activities  of  Communists.  He  gave  considerable  in- 
formation about  Communist  activities  at  Chapel  Hill  during  the  late  40's 
and  early  50's.  He  was  asked  if  he  felt  that  Communists  should  be  allowed 
to  speak  on  our  college  campuses  and  he  stated  that  they  should  not  be 
allowed.  He  was  also  asked  how  he  felt  about  the  Speaker  Ban  Law.  His 
answer  to  this  was  that  he  did  not  feel  that  the  stockholders  should  try 
to  run  the  corporation  but  that  this  should  be  done  by  the  directors  and  if 
the  stockholders  were  not  satisfied  with  the  way  the  directors  were 
operating  the  corporation,  the  directors  should  be  removed  and  others 
elected.  Of  course,  he  was  suggesting  that  in  this  instance  that  members 
of  the  General  Assembly  are  the  stockholders,  the  University  and  Colleges, 
the  corporations,  and  the  Boards  of  Trustees  the  directors. 

After  these  hearings  members  of  the  Commission  held  several  unan- 
nounced meetings  at  which  they  were  able  to  deliberate  and  arrive  at 
conclusions. 

One  of  the  basic  conclusions  that  has  to  be  reached  is  to  determine 
the  purpose  of  the  Speaker  Ban  Law. 

On  this  point  the  testimony  of  Representative  Phil  Godwin  is  pertinent. 
He  stated  that  he  and  several  others  discussed  the  Speaker  Ban  Law  at 
various  times  during  the  1963  Session,  their  concern  being  prompted  by 
reports  of  J.  Edgar  Hoover,  Director  of  the  Federal  Bureau  of  Investi- 
gation, to  the  effect  that  Communist  activities  in  the  United  States  are 
being  stepped  up  and  particularly  on  university  and  college  campuses.  He 
stated  that  he  did  not  want  his  13-year-old  son  subjected  or  exposed  to 
Communist  speakers  if  his  son  should  elect  to  attend  one  of  our  state- 
supported  institutions  of  higher  learning.  He  further  stated  that  as  an 
introducer  he  was  not  vindictive  of  any  institution  and  it  was  not  his 
purpose  to  injure  or  punish  any  institution. 

The  Commission  accepted  this  testimony  at  face  value  and  believes  that 
the  introducers  of  the  bill  acted  in  good  faith  as  indicated  by  the  testi- 
mony of  Mr.  Godwin. 

As  to  the  purpose  of  the  Speaker  Ban  Law,  no  doubt  various  members 
of  the  1963  General  Assembly  had  various  purposes  in  mind  and  I  desire 
to  state  my  personal  opinion. 

I  knew  nothing  of  the  bill  until  it  was  introduced  in  this  House.  The 
gentleman  from  Gates  moved  that  the  rules  be  suspended  and  that  the 
Reading  Clerk  read  the  bill.  The  bill  was  read  and  I  must  admit  it  sounded 
good  to  me  and  I  could  see  nothing  wrong  wit  it.  Many  of  us  as  Legis- 
lators sort  of  follow  a  practice  if  we  can  see  nothing  wrong  with  a  bill  or 
resolution,  we  do  not  oppose  it  and  that  was  true  in  this  instance. 


38  HOUSE  JOURNAL  [Extra  Session 

Frankly,  I  was  greatly  surprised  by  the  reaction  to  the  Speaker  Ban 
bill.  I  felt  that  it  was  appropriate  that  our  youth  attending  our  state- 
supported  university  and  colleges  should  be  protected  from  Communist 
influence  and  I  still  have  that  opinion.  It  is  my  hope  now  that  no  more 
will  be  invited  and  it  is  my  honest  opinion  that  if  the  recommendations 
of  our  Commission  are  followed  and  the  Speaker  Ban  Law  is  amended  as 
we  have  suggested  that  there  will  be  no  political  Communist  speakers  on 
the  campuses  of  our  State  University  and  Colleges  in  the  foreseeable 
future. 

Having  stated  what  I  believe  to  be  the  purpose  of  the  Speaker  Ban  Law 
we  then  ask  the  question,  has  the  law  accomplished  its  purpose?  My  answer 
to  this  question  is  partially  yes  and  partially  no. 

I  believe  that  the  law  has  partially  accomplished  its  purpose  because  it 
has  shown  the  strong  sentiment  of  the  people  of  North  Carolina  on  the 
matter  of  Communism.  From  every  section  of  our  state  the  message  has 
come  clear  and  strong  that  our  people  are  unalterably  opposed  to  Com- 
munism or  other  form  of  totalitarianism  that  would  destroy  our  basic 
Democratic  institutions.  I  am  sure  that  our  educators  and  administrators 
have  received  this  message  and  now  know  the  strong  feeling  of  our  people 
on  this  subject. 

On  the  other  hand,  the  answer  to  this  question  is  partially  no  because 
of  the   reaction  to  the  law. 

Let  us  assume  that  appearance  of  Communist  speakers  at  Chapel  Hill 
prior  to  1963  was  sufficient  reason  for  the  passage  of  the  law.  I  realize  that 
this  assumption  is  subject  to  debate  but  let  us  assume  it  for  the  time  being. 

The  situation  can  be  compared  to  a  physician  treating  a  sick  patient.  He 
diagnoses  the  case  and  prescribes  treatment — usually  medication — with  the 
goal  of  curing  the  patient.  Sometimes  there  is  a  reaction  to  the  treatment 
that  makes  the  patient  even  worse.  When  that  happens,  the  skilled, 
intelligent  physician  not  only  refuses  to  administer  more  of  the  same 
treatment  but  gives  the  patient  something  to  counteract  the  original  error. 

In  this  instance,  the  University  of  North  Carolina  could  be  the  patient 
and  our  General  Assembly  the  physician.  We  administered  the  remedy  in 
1963  but  the  reaction  has  been  such  that  it  is  highly  questionable  as  to 
the  net  results  of  the  treatment.  I  fear  that  the  reaction  has  made  the 
situation  worse  than  it  was  prior  to  passage  of  the  law  and  the  reaction  is 
contagious,  spreading  to  other  campuses  of  our  state. 

This  reaction  has  taken  many  forms. 

There  is  resentment  and  hurt  feelings  on  the  part  of  the  faculties,  not 
only  at  Chapel  Hill  but  elsewhere  among  our  state-supported  campuses. 
A  faculty  member  from  the  University  of  North  Carolina  at  Greensboro 
wrote  me,  and  after  mentioning  a  brilliant  war  service  record  concluded 
that  the  General  Assembly  by  this  law  accused  him  of  either  being  a 
Communist  or  Communist  sympathizer  or  being  so  stupid  or  naive  as  to 
be  duped  by  Communists.  Educators  throughout  the  nation  have  arisen  to 
the  defense  of  their  counter-parts  in  North  Carolina. 


1965]  HOUSE  JOURNAL  39 

There  is  resentment  among  the  students,  which,  I  fear,  is  causing  many 
of  them  to  'play  with  fire'  in  this  serious  matter.  The  fire  has  spread 
beyond  the  campuses  of  our  twelve  state-supported  institutions  on  to 
certain  church-related  campuses.  For  129  years  prior  to  1963  the  church- 
related  college  which  I  attended,  so  far  as  I  know,  never  invited  a  Com- 
munist speaker  but  that  happened  in  1965.  A  similar  appearance  was  made 
at  one  of  our  other  well-known  and  highly  respected  church-related 
institutions. 

There  is  resentment  among  many  who  are  closely  associated  with  edu- 
cators and  students.  An  example  of  this  is  the  minister  in  Chapel  Hill  who 
permitted  Carl  Braden  to  appear  in  his  church  just  off  the  UNC  campus. 
I  am  sure  he  had  a  better  environment  to  influence  his  listeners  than  Gus 
Hall  had  back  in  1949  when  he  was  not  allowed  to  speak  on  the  UNC 
campus  but  tried  to  speak  from  a  pickup  truck  on  a  Chapel  Hill  street 
and  according  to  Ralph  Clontz  was  almost  mobbed  by  the  students.  As  is 
true  with  the  skilled  physician,  it  is  now  time  for  us — the  General 
Assembly — to  modify  the  remedy  we  have  imposed  on  our  patient,  to  the 
end  that  the  patient  will  not  only  recover  from  the  reaction  but  from  the 
original  condition  as  well. 

Let  us  consider  now  the  recommendations  of  the  Commission. 

The  key  words  of  these  recommendations  are  'middle  ground'.  We  realize 
that  there  are  strong  feelings  and  opinions  about  this  matter  but  it  is 
our  belief  that  there  is  a  middle  ground  on  which  reasonable  people  can 
meet. 

The  report  which  we  have  filed  is  imperfect,  both  from  the  standpoint 
of  form  and  content.  But,  I  say  to  you  in  all  earnestness,  it  represents  the 
heart  of  the  Commission. 

When  we  began  our  work  there  was  a  suggestion  that  we  might  obtain 
the  services  of  someone  from  the  Institute  of  Government  or  other  qualified 
person  to  serve  as  a  research  assistant  and  then  help  us  in  preparing  a 
well  worded  report;  but,  after  brief  discussion  the  Commission  concluded 
that  its  work  would  be  done  by  members  of  the  Commission  and  although 
the  end  product  would  not  be  polished,  it  would  be  100%  ours. 

The  recommendations  of  the  Commission  were  based  in  large  part  on 
information  received  at  the  hearings.  Although  my  sympathies  were  very 
much  in  favor  of  the  Speaker  Ban  Law,  after  listening  to  all  of  the  testi- 
mony presented  at  the  hearings  there  was  no  doubt  in  my  mind  that  as 
responsible  people  members  of  the  Commission  should  recommend  changes 
in  the   Speaker  Ban  Law. 

Many  people  who  appeared  at  the  hearings  were  impressive,  but  one  of 
the  best  impressions  was  made  by  the  President  of  East  Carolina  College, 
Dr.  Leo  Jenkins.  It  appears  to  be  the  objective  of  Dr.  Jenkins  that  the 
college  he  heads  will  not  only  serve  the  state  generally  and  Eastern  North 
Carolina  in  particular  as  an  institution  of  higher  learning  but  that  it  will 
also  assist  in  the  economic  and  cultural  development  of  the  area  it  serves. 


40  HOUSE  JOURNAL  [Extra  Session 

It  was  quite  evident  that  this  college  president  had  given  considerable 
thought  to  this  problem  and  he  presented  a  statement  of  policy  unanimously 
approved  by  his  Board  of  Trustees  relating  to  the  matter  of  visiting 
speakers. 

The  impression  and  contribution  thus  made  started  the  Commission  on 
its  way  to  the  action  it  finally  took,  that  of  recommending  that  the  Trustees 
of  each  of  our  institutions  adopt  a  statement  of  policy  on  this  matter. 

As  stated  above,  representatives  of  two  of  our  very  fine  Veterans 
organizations  appeared  before  us,  representatives  of  the  American  Legion 
and  the  Veterans  of  Foreign  Wars.  The  fact  is  that  there  are  men  with 
distinguished  service  records  on  both  sides  of  this  controversy.  I  shall  not 
attempt  to  mention  the  war  record  of  all  who  appeared  at  the  public 
hearings  in  opposition  to  the  Speaker  Ban  Law  but  will  mention  three. 

The  first  is  a  well  known  lawyer  and  educator  who  was  a  rifle  battalion 
commander  in  an  infantry  division  in  World  War  II.  He  was  involved  in 
three  major  engagements  in  Europe  and  was  awarded  the  Silver  Star,  the 
Bronze  Star  and  the  Legion  of  Merit.  The  second  that  I  mention  is  a 
prominent  Charlotte  physician  who  was  an  Air  Force  pilot  in  World  War 
II  who  engaged  in  thirty  combat  missions  over  Europe.  He  is  a  1947 
graduate  of  the  University  of  North  Carolina  at  Chapel  Hill  and  served 
as  president  of  the  Student  Body. 

The  third  one  I  mention  was  the  most  impressive  of  all  and  I  refer  to 
Colonel  Samuel  I.  Parker  of  Concord,  North  Carolina.  I  do  not  know  his 
politics  but  my  guess  is  that  it  is  different  from  mine.  He  is  a  1917  gradu- 
ate of  UNC,  fought  in  the  trenches  in  France  during  World  War  I  and 
earned  the  Silver  Star,  Distinguished  Service  Cross  and  the  Congres- 
sional Medal  of  Honor.  He  was  the  first  man  to  receive  all  three  of  these 
awards  and  he  appeared  before  our  Commission  and  pleaded  for  the 
repeal  of  the  Speaker  Ban  Law. 

It  is  now  appropriate  that  we  consider  the  alternatives  to  changing 
this  law. 

In  the  first  place,  the  unrest  will  increase  and  there  is  no  doubt  in  my 
mind  that  the  Communists  will  be  the  beneficiaries  of  the  unrest.  All  of  us 
know  that  Communism  thrives  on  unrest,  turmoil  and  conflict  and  it  is 
certain  that  there  is  joy  in  Communist  headquarters  over  the  unrest 
prevailing  in  North  Carolina  because  of  this  law.  If  this  law  is  unchanged, 
all  twelve  of  the  institutions  of  higher  learning  supported  by  the  State 
will  suffer.  Accrediation  or  loss  of  accrediation  is  merely  a  factor  in  this 
matter.  It  is  well  for  us  that  the  Southern  Association  of  Colleges  and 
Schools  has  become  domesticated  in  North  Carolina  to  the  end  that  if 
litigation  should  ever  become  necessary  it  might  be  tried  here  in  North 
Carolina  rather  than  in  Georgia.  On  the  other  hand,  regardless  of  the 
outcome  of  litigation,  our  schools  would  suffer  as  a  result  of  such  litigation. 

Our  University  at  Chapel  Hill  has  a  great  history  and  is  destined  for 
an  even  greater  future.  North  Carolina  State  University  has  earned  for 
itself  a  place  of  distinction  and  if  unhampered  will  move  on  to  become  one 
of  the  greatest  institutions  in  the  free  world.  As  a  member  of  the  Advisory 


1965]  HOUSE  JOURNAL  41 

Budget  Commission  last  summer  I  visited  the  State  campus  and  saw  great 
things  that  I  did  not  know  existed  in  our  state,  including  an  atomic 
reactor,  State  is  attracting  noted  scholars,  scientists  and  students  from 
all  over  the  world  and  our  efforts  should  be  to  help. 

East  Carolina  College  and  the  others,  in  their  own  way,  are  rendering 
outstanding  service  and  are  developing  into  even  greater  institutions.  More 
than  buildings,  grounds  and  equipment  make  a  college  or  university.  There 
must  be  competent  faculty  and  administrators  as  well  as  students  and  we 
should  do  nothing  to  handicap  these  institutions  in  reaching  their  highest 
potential. 

It  is  to  be  noted  that  no  other  state  in  the  Union  has  adopted  legislation 
similar  to  the  Speaker  Ban  Law.  Similar  bills  have  been  introduced  in 
several  other  states  but  were  not  enacted  into  law.  The  last  one  that  I 
know  about  was  Alabama  where  the  bill  passed  one  House  but  failed  to 
pass  the  other.  It  is  doubtful  that  'everyone  is  out  of  step  but  Johnny'. 

This  continued  unrest  caused  by  the  Speaker  Ban  Law  will  have  adverse 
effects  other  than  on  education.  There  is  evidence  to  the  effect  that  it  has 
and  will  affect  the  industrial  and  commercial  development  of  our  state. 

Now  to  the  bill  proposed  by  the  Commission. 

The  bill  is  very  brief  and  self-explanatory,  therefore  I  shall  not  read  it. 
Suffice  it  to  say,  it  returns  the  authority  for  regulating  the  visiting 
speakers  embraced  in  the  Speaker  Ban  Law  to  the  Boards  of  Trustees  of 
the  various  institutions;  but  at  the  same  time  it  also  imposes  upon  these 
trustees  the  responsibility  to  make  and  publish  rules  and  regulations 
concerning  this  matter. 

Fellow  Members  of  the  General  Assembly,  on  behalf  of  the  Commission 
which  studied  this  matter  long  and  hard,  I  urge  you  to  support  the  bill 
which  we  have  recommended. 

s/  David  M.  Britt"

HOUSE  JOURNAL 


EXTRA  SESSION  1966 


FIRST  DAY 

House  of  Representatives 
Monday,  January  10,  1966 

Pursuant  to  a  call  of  His  Excellency,  Governor  Dan  K.  Moore,  hereafter 
recorded,  the  House  of  Representatives  of  the  General  Assembly  of  North 
Carolina  convenes  in  its  Hall  in  Extraordinary  Session,  at  the  hour  of 
twelve  o'clock  noon,  Monday,  January  10,  1966  and  is  called  to  order  by 
Mr.  Speaker  Taylor. 

Prayer  is  offered  by  the  Reverend  Alphonso  Jordan,  House  Chaplain. 

The  Reading  Clerk  reads  the  following  Proclamation  by  the  Governor: 

PROCLAMATION    BY   THE    GOVERNOR 

WHEREAS,  the  provisions  of  Sections  5  and  6  of  Article  II  of  the 
Constitution  of  North  Carolina,  which  allocate  to  each  county  at  least  one 
representative  without  respect  to  its  ratio  of  representation,  together  with 
the  Statutes  of  the  State  of  North  Carolina,  General  Statutes  163-103, 
General  Statutes  120-1,  and  General  Statutes  120-2,  have  been  declared 
void  and  of  no  effect  by  the  United  States  District  Court  for  the  Middle 
District  of  North  Carolina,  and 

WHEREAS,  the  1966  primaries  and  general  elections  insofar  as  they 
relate  to  the  election  of  members  of  the  North  Carolina  General  Assembly 
and  the  United  States  House  of  Representatives,  have  been  enjoined  by 
the  aforesaid  Court,  and 

WHEREAS,  enforcement  of  the  injunction  has  been  stayed  until  January 
31,  1966  so  that  the  General  Assembly  of  North  Carolina  may  be  provided 
an  opportunity  to  enact  appropriate  statutes  under  the  Constitution  of 
North  Carolina  and  the  Constitution  of  the  United  States  for  the  purpose 
of  meeting  the  requirements  of  redistricting  and  reapportionment  as 
required  by  the  Court, 

NOW,  THEREFORE,  I,  Dan  K.  Moore,  Governor  of  the  State  of  North 
Carolina,  under  and  by  virtue  of  the  authority  vested  in  me  by  Article  3, 
Section  9,  of  the  Constitution  of  North  Carolina,  do,  by  and  with  the 
advice  and  assent  of  the  Council  of  State,  proclaim  that  the  General 
Assembly  of  North  Carolina  shall  meet  in  Extra  Session  at  Raleigh  at

MESSAGE    OF   THE    HONORABLE    DAN    MOORE 

GOVERNOR   OF    NORTH    CAROLINA 

TO   THE    EXTRA    SESSION 

THE    GENERAL   ASSEMBLY   OF    NORTH    CAROLINA 

Raleigh,  North  Carolina 
January  10,  1966 

"Mr.  President,  Mr.  Speaker,  Members  of  the  General  Assembly  of  North 
Carolina: 

I  have  called  this  Extra  Session  to  meet  one  of  the  most  critical  problems 
ever  to  confront  this  legislative  body.  This  action  was  taken  after  conferring 
with  the  Lieutenant  Governor  and  the  Speaker  of  the  House,  and  with  the 
advice  and  assent  of  the  Council  of  State. 

The  United  States  District  Court  for  the  Middle  District  of  North 
Carolina  has  declared  void  and  of  no  effect  those  provisions  of  Sections  5 
and  6  of  Article  II  of  the  Constitution  of  North  Carolina,  which  allocate 
at  least  one  representative  to  each  county  without  respect  to  population.  It 
also  declares  void  General  Statutes  163-103,  General  Statutes  120-1,  and 
General  Statutes  120-2  of  the  General  Statutes.  This  federal  court  has  also 
prohibited  primaries  and  general  elections  in  1966  for  members  of  the 
North  Carolina  General  Assembly  and  the  United  States  House  of  Repre- 
sentatives. In  its  interlocutory  order,  the  court  stayed  the  mandate  of  its 
injunction  until  January  31,  1966,  so  that  this  Special  Session  could  deal 
with  the  matters  of  reapportionment  of  the  House,  redistricting  of  the 
State  Senate  and  realignment  of  our  Congressional  Districts. 

The  court  further  stated- — and  I  quote  the  exact  language  of  the  order: 
'If  apportionment  compatible  to  constitutional  standards  cannot  be  achieved 
by  that  date  (January  31),  this  court  will  regretfully  undertake  to  fashion 
a  scheme  of  apportionment  which  will  permit  the  1966  primaries  and 
elections  to  proceed  on  a  just  and  equitable  basis'. 

Some  people  urged  me  to  call  an  Extra  Session  last  September  when 
the  suit,  DRUM  v  SEAWELL,  was  brought.  However,  it  would  have  been 
futile  to  have  called  such  a  Session  at  that  time.  Until  the  court  spoke  in 
DRUM  v  Seawell,  the  General  Assembly  was  powerless  to  reapportion  our 
House  of  Representatives  in  conformity  with  what  the  court  now  declares 
to  be  the  law.  Before  the  court  decision,  the  North  Carolina  Constitution 
required  that  each  county  have  at  least  one  representative,  and  we  were 
bound  by  that  constitutional  requirement. 


1966]  HOUSE  JOURNAL  13 

Furthermore,  the  Assembly  already  had  adopted  official  policy  on  this 
matter  during  the  1965  Regular  Session.  That  was  the  first  session  following 
the  'one  man,  one  vote'  decisions  in  REYNOLDS  v  SIMS.  In  that  session, 
by  Joint  Resolution  No.  60,  you  joined  North  Carolina  with  many  of  our 
sister  states  in  requesting  the  Congress  to  call  a  convention  for  the  purpose 
of  amending  the  United  States  Constitution  to  permit  states  having  bi- 
cameral legislatures  to  utilize  factors  other  than  population  in  apportioning 
at  least  one  House  of  their  legislative  bodies. 

In  all,  since  1962,  the  legislatures  of  thirty  states  out  of  the  thirty-three 
required  to  obtain  a  Constitutional  Convention  officially  requested  con- 
gressional action  on  the  subject  of  state  reapportionment. 

So,  the  North  Carolina  General  Assembly  was  neither  unique  nor  alone 
in  the  position  it  took  in  1965  when  it  sought  to  preserve  the  legislative 
structure  that  had  served  this  state  so  well  since  the  Constitution  of  1868. 

Only  after  DRUM  V  SEAWELL  and  the  adjournment  of  Congress  with- 
out action  was  it  apparent  that  the  course  most  preferred  by  this  General 
Assembly  was  no  longer  available. 

I  have  given  you  this  background  so  that  everyone  may  understand  that 
there  is  nothing  unusual  about  the  situation  in  which  North  Carolina  finds 
itself  today.  A  great  majority  of  the  states  already  have  been  forced  to 
take  action  in  this  area.  In  view  of  the  decisions  of  Federal  Courts  in  cases 
involving  these  other  states,  it  would  have  been  ill-advised  and  useless  to 
appeal  the  decision  of  the  District  Court. 

As  I  have  stated  earlier,  I  share  the  feelings  of  many  North  Carolinians 
that  our  present  system  of  representation,  while  not  perfect,  has  worked 
well  and  for  the  best  interests  of  our  people  for  nearly  a  century.  How- 
ever, we  are  faced  with  the  edict  of  the  court.  It  leaves  us  no  alternative 
but  to  do  the  best  we  can  to  comply. 

As  you  know,  the  North  Carolina  Constitution  specifies  in  Article  II, 
Sections  4,  5  and  6,  that  you  shall  be  responsible  for  reapportionment  of 
the  House  and  redisricting  of  the  Senate.  Certainly  the  overwhelming 
majority  of  North  Carolinians  prefers  that  any  changes  in  our  General 
Assembly  and  in  our  Congressional  Districts  be  made  by  our  own  Legis- 
latures and  not  by  the  Federal  Court. 

On  December  6,  1965,  the  Lieutenant  Governor,  the  Speaker  of  the  House, 
and  I  met  to  discuss  what  North  Carolina  should  do  in  light  of  the  Federal 
Court  Orders.  We  came  to  the  following  conclusions: 

First,  it  was  our  feeling  that  an  Extra  Session  should  be  called  for  this 
date; 

Second,  that  the  Session  should  limit  itself  solely  to  legislative  action 
designed  to  comply  with  the  court  order: 

Third,  that,  due  to  the  length  of  time  it  would  take  to  amend  the  Consti- 
tution, it  would  not  be  practical  to  consider  increasing  the  membership  of 
either  the  Senate  or  House  at  this  Session;  and 


14  HOUSE  JOURNAL  [Extra  Session 

Fourth,  due  to  decisions  of  the  Federal  Courts,  it  was  our  opinion  that 
it  would  not  be  realistic  to  consider  any  system  of  so-called  'weighted' 
voting. 

I  still  think  that  these  are  wise  conclusions. 

At  that  time  it  was  also  agreed  that  the  Lieutenant  Governor  would  name 
a  committee  from  the  Senate  to  study  in  advance  the  matter  of  redistricting 
for  membership  in  that  body,  and  that  the  Speaker  of  the  House  would 
appoint  a  committee  from  the  House  to  consider  its  apportionment.  It  was 
decided  that  the  Lieutenant  Governor  and  the  Speaker,  acting  together, 
would  select  a  joint  committee  to  study  the  matter  of  realignment  of  our 
Congressional  Districts. 

I  have  been  pleased  and  proud  of  the  diligent  efforts  which  all  three 
legislative  committees  have  made  in  attempting  to  find  reasonable,  lawful 
solutions  to  the  difficult  problems  posed  by  the  court  order.  The  Office  of 
the  Attorney  General  and  my  office  have  been  in  close  touch  with  the  com- 
mitees  in  all  of  their  deliberations.  This  preliminary  groundwork  has 
been  accomplished  in  a  genuine  atmosphere  of  teamwork  which  is  in 
keeping  with  our  heritage  of  good,  representative  government.  I  am  con- 
fident that  your  deliberations  will  be  less  difficult  because  of  the  preliminary 
work  already  accomplished  by  the  committees. 

Now,  the  General  Assembly  of  North  Carolina  must  meet  head-on  the 
mandate  of  the  Supreme  Court  of  the  United  States  and  reapportion  both 
Houses  and  Congressional  Districts  in  accordance  with  the  'one  man,  one 
vote'  decision.  You  must  also  make  these  decisions  in  compliance  with  the 
specific  orders  of  the  United  States  District  Court  issued  on  November 
30,  1965. 

So  the  hour  of  decision  is  here  and  make  no  mistake  about  this — the 
court  will  perform  the  task  unless  you  do  so  yourselves.  For  example,  in 
the  State  of  Oklahoma,  the  Legislature  was  unable  to  agree  on  a  plan  of 
reapportionment  and  so  the  Federal  Court  stepped  in  and  reapportioned 
by  judicial  decree.  It  provided  a  scheme  which  divided  the  state  into  areas 
of  equal  population  but  which  cut  across  both  city  and  county  lines. 

To  allow  the  Federal  Court  to  assume  your  legislative  responsibility 
would  be  an  injustice  to  the  people  of  North  Carolina.  Our  people  have 
chosen  you  as  their  lawmakers.  They  have  imposed  upon  you  the  responsi- 
bility of  making  legislative  decisions.  They  have  expressed  their  confidence 
and  trust  that  you  are  equal  to  any  legislative  task.  I  have  every  confidence 
that  you  will  meet  this  challenge  and  that  you  will  do  what  is  best  for  the 
state  as  a  whole. 

I  understand  and  appreciate  that  the  task  before  you  is  a  legislative 
problem,  both  constitutionally  and  as  a  practical  matter.  Therefore,  I  have 
not  attempted  to  present  specific  proposals  but  I  do  fully  understand  and 
appreciate  the  task  before  you. 

During  the  last  year,  we  have  faced  many  difficult  challenges.  Working 
together,  we  have  met  the  challenges  and  we  have  met  them  in  the  best 
interest  of  the  State.  Your  record  is  one  of  proud  achievement.  Once  again, 


1966]  HOUSE  JOURNAL  15 

you  are  called  upon  to  find  solutions  to  complicated  legislative  problems. 
As  you  approach  this  task,  I  assure  you  of  my  continued  cooperation  and 
interest.  I  am  confident  that  you  will  do  the  very  best  you  can  .  .  .  under 
very  difficult  circumstances  to  agree  on  solutions  that  will  be  in  the  best 
interest  of  All  The  People  of  this  State!" 

After  the  Governor's  address  and  upon  motion  of  Senator  Morgan  of 
Harnett  the  Joint  Assembly  dissolves  and  the  Senate  repairs  to  its 
Chamber.  The  House  resumes  consideration  of  its  business. 

Upon  motion  of  Representative  Uzzell  the  House  resolves  itself  into  a 
Committee  of  the  Whole  House. 

Upon  motion  of  Representative  Uzzell  the  House,  sitting  as  a  Committee 
of  the  Whole,  takes  a  recess  until  2:30  P.M.  at  which  reconvening  time 
will  sit  in  a  Joint  Committee  of  the  Whole. 


AFTERNOON  SESSION 

January  10,  1966 

Pursuant  to  its  recess  the  House  meets,  sitting  in  Joint  Committee  of 
the  Whole  Senate  and  House  in  accordance  with  motions  heretofore  made 
and  adopted,  for  the  purpose  of  public  hearings  on  matters  pertaining  to 
the  call  of  this  Extraordinary  Session,  to  wit,  redistricting  and  reap- 
aportionment  of  the  State  House  of  Representatives,  State  Senate,  and  the 
Congressional  Districts. 

The  Joint  Committee  of  the  Whole  Senate  and  House  is  called  to  order

ing Orange  County;  Elton  Neilson,  Chairman  of  the  Republican  Party  of 
Forsyth  County;  and  H.  M.  Hardy  from  Warren  County;  all  of  whom 
speak  in  opposition  to  the  entire  proposals  of  redistricting. 

Chairman  Scott  recognizes  Representative  Vaughn,  Senator  White,  and 
Representative  Eagles  who,  in  turn,  explain  the  bills  before  the  Joint  Com- 
mittee of  the  Whole  Senate  and  House. 

On  motion  of  Senator  Johnson  of  Iredell  the  Joint  Committee  of  the

STATEMENT   BY    MEMBER 

"I  hold  in  my  hand  the  map  of  this  State  which  H.  B.  No.  1  is  designed 
to  make  as  near  constitutional  as  we  have  been  able  to  determine  from 
the  edict  which  has  brought  us  into  special  session.  This  map  reminds  me  of 
a  man  who  was  in  a  very  bad  accident  and  taken  to  the  doctor.  When  the 
doctor  made  his  report  he  said  'The  man  has  been  knocked  in  the  head  and 
has  two  broken  legs,  but  he  looks  very  healthy  in  the  middle.'  I  appreciate 
very  much  the  flowers  on  my  desk  but  what  we  from  the  West  really 
need  is  a  wreath.  We  have  the  pallbearers  and  the  caskets,  but  no  wreath. 

The  remarks  which  I  am  going  to  make  are  not  designed  to  make  one 
popular.  However,  I  feel  compelled  to  speak. 


1966]  HOUSE  JOURNAL  19 

My  ancestors  and  yours  fought,  bled,  and  died  to  obtain  the  rights  and 
privileges  which  we  have  enjoyed  until  recently. 

It  is  for  their  sake — and  even  more  for  the  sake  of  the  rising  generation 
— that  I  stand  before  you  today. 

I  have  been  a  loyal  and  liberal  Democrat  all  my  life — born  of  Democrat 
parents  and  grandparents,  but  I  am  tired  of  traveling  at  high  speed  down 
a  road  which  has  only  left  turns. 

I  have  no  ill  feeling  toward  any  one  here.  I  know  that  the  reapportion- 
ment committee  worked  hard  and  long  on  an  impossible  task  to  please  the 
Federal  District  Court.  I  suppose  some  part  of  the  State  had  to  be  expend- 
able, and  I  tell  you  that  if  you  will  take  a  look  at  this  map,  you  will  see 
that  the  West  was  really  expended.  I  have  no  alternate  plan.  I  merely  ask 
you  to  consider  the  direction  in  which  we  are  heading. 

'Quo  Vadis?' 

Whither  Goest  Thou? 

As  we  begin  our  deliberations  on  H.  B.  No.  1  to  reapportion  our  Legis- 
lature solely  on  population,  I  hope  that  each  of  us  will  give  solemn  thought 
to  what  he  or  she  is  doing. 

I  am  neither  a  lawyer  or  a  judge,  but  I  am  a  teacher  and  have  been  a 
student  of  history  for  thirty  odd  years. 

I  am  told  that  the  Federal  District  judges  have  ruled  on  the  reapportion- 
ment question  consistent  with  the  Supreme  Court  ruling  of  'One  man,  One 
vote  theory'.  They  have  ruled  that  certain  sections  of  certain  articles  of 
the  North  Carolina  Constitution  are  invalid.  Well  my  friends,  if  one  part 
of  the  North  Carolina  Constitution  which  has  been  in  force  for  lo  these 
many  years  is  suddenly  found  to  be  wrong,  then  perhaps  the  whole  con- 
stitution is  invalid.  How  can  we  possibly  know  from  day  to  day  where 
we  stand?  That  is,  unless  we  call  the  Supreme  Court  and  the  Federal 
District  Court  to  find  out? 

Now,  I  can  understand  the  need  for  change  at  times,  but  why  can't  it 
be  done  in  accordance  with  the  provisions  of  our  Constitution — a  way  that 
does  not  offend  the  sensibilities  of  all  who  love  law  and  justice.  This  order, 
which  we  are  given  makes  a  mockery  of  this  august  legislative  body — a 
body  which  was  heralded  less  than  a  year  ago  as  the  greatest  legislative 
body  on  earth — where  even  the  Governor  does  not  have  the  power  of  veto. 
How  powerful  are  we  today? 

I  say  to  you,  that  edicts  handed  down  by  Federal  Courts  which  do  not 
allow  for  an  orderly  process  of  law  breed  irreverance  and  outright  contempt 
for  those  courts. 

The  common  people  have  always  wanted  laws  which  they  could  under- 
stand and  count  on.  And  right  here  I  think  we  might  pause  to  review  a 
little  history. 


20  HOUSE  JOURNAL  [Extra  Session 

Moses  gave  the  Hebrew  people  the  Ten  Commandments  and  they  have 
stood  through  the  centuries  as  applicable  today  as  when  they  were  written. 

In  the  pagan  world  the  laws  were  unwritten  for  a  long  time.  The 
common  man  did  not  know  whether  he  was  obeying  the  law  or  not. 

Finally,  Justinian  I,  ruler  of  the  Eastern  Roman  Empire  from  527  B.  C. 
to  565  B.  C.|  chose  ten  of  the  wisest  men  in  his  realm  to  draw  up  a  collection 
of  the  Roman  laws.  It  is  called  the  Justinian  Code  or  Body  of  Civil  Law. 
This  body  of  law  is  recognized  as  one  of  the  greatest  contributions  to 
civilization. 

The  Great  Charter  or  Magna  Carta  has  been  called  'The  Cornerstone  of 
English  Liberty'.  It  marked  a  beginning  of  democracy  in  England.  It  was 
wrung  by  force  from  King  John  at  Runnymede  in  1215  A.  D.  The  principle 
of  'No  taxation  without  representation'  is  traced  to  the  Charter  as  well  as 
many  other  of  our  laws  today. 

I  use  these  examples  to  show  that  the  common  man  has  struggled  for  at 
least  2500  years  to  gain  the  rights  and  privileges  embodied  in  our  State 
and  Federal  Constitution.  Our  Federal  Constitution  has  been  held  up  as 
a  model  throughout  the  world.  Yet,  today  the  provisions  of  this  Constitution 
are  being  so  grossly  misinterpreted  as  to  sicken  even  the  most  liberal 
individual. 

Last  February  I  laid  my  hand  on  this  Bible  and  swore  to  uphold  the 
North  Carolina  Constitution,  and  before  the  last  bear  in  the  Great  Smokey 
Mountains  has  found  his  den,  or  the  last  golden  leaf  has  drifted  to  the 
forest  floor,  I  am  ordered  to  recant  within  60  days'  without  so  much  as  a 
please  or  thank  you. 

I  ask  you,  my  colleagues, 

Have  we  slept  away  our  rights? 

Is  this  Legislature  like  the  great  Sampson  of  the  Bible  whose  strength 
was  in  his  hair  and  while  he  slept,  Delilah  cut  it  off,  thereby  causing  his 
downfall? 

When  the  Supreme  Court  ruled  that  school  prayers  are  unconstitutional 
I  was  amazed.  I  thought  surely  something  would  be  done,  but  they  got 
away  with  that  edict;  and,  since  then,  their  appetite  has  become  so  whetted 
they  have  continued  slashing  away  at  the  foundations  on  which  this  nation 
was  built. 

At  this  point  I  should  like  to  read  Chapter  6,  verses  46  through  49  of 
the  Book  of  Luke.  'Any  why  call  ye  me,  Lord,  Lord,  and  do  not  the  things 
which  I  say?  Whosoever  cometh  to  me,  and  heareth  my  sayings,  and  doeth 
them,  I  will  shew  you  to  whom  he  is  like:  He  is  like  a  man  which  built  an 
house,  and  digged  deep,  and  laid  the  foundation  on  a  rock:  and  when  the 
flood  arose,  the  stream  beat  vehemently  upon  that  house,  and  could  not 
shake  it:  for  it  was  founded  upon  a  rock.  But  he  that  heareth,  and  doeth 
not,  is  like  a  man  that  without  a  foundation  built  a  house  upon  the  earth; 
against  which  the  stream  did  beat  vehemently,  and  immediately  it  fell; 
and  the  ruin  of  that  house  was  great'. 


1966]  HOUSE  JOURNAL  21 

They  may  have  done  away  with  prayers  in  school,  but  I  noticed  recently 
when  two  planes  collided  in  mid-air,  and  one  came  in  safely  that  everyone 
aboard  bowed  and  said  a  prayer.    I  wonder  if  that  was  constitutional? 

Ladies  and  Gentlemen  of  the  House: 

How  long  shall  we  continue  this  role  of  appeasement? 

Shall  we  rip  the  North  Carolina  Constitution  from  the  Great  Seal  on 
the  front  of  this  building?  Shall  we  blot  out  the  Latin  inscription  Esse  Quam 
Videri  which  means:  To  be  rather  than  to  seem? 

Shall  we  discard  such  great  statesmen  and  patriots  as  Thomas  Jefferson 
and  Patrick  Henry?  When  this  Nation  was  in  the  early  stages  of  its 
development  Patrick  Henry  stood  in  the  House  of  Burgesses  in  Virginia 
and  defied  the  tyranny  of  the  great  British  Empire.  Has  the  tar  been 
cleansed  from  our  heels  and  wax  applied — the  better  to  run  to  do  the 
bidding  of  the  Federal  Courts? 

We  are  in  the  throes  of  a  great  labor,  and,  unless  something  is  done,  I 
fear  we  shall  bring  forth  a  monster  which  shall  devour  us  all. 

An  ill  wind  sweeps  over  this  state  and  nation.  Its  icy  fingers  lay  hold 
on  your  throat  and  mine.  This  is  not  the  end — but  the  beginning. 

Ladies  and  Gentlemen  of  this  House: 

'Whither  Goest  Thou  This  Day?' 

I  thank  you,  Mr.  Speaker."

set  out  by  the  United  States  Supreme  Court,  in  order  that  the  Court  not 
perform  this  function.  The  informal  policy  with  regard  to  House  and 
Senate  redistricting  legislation  is  that  the  House  accept  the  Senate's  plan 
for  the  Senate,  and  that  the  Senate  accept  the  House's  plan  for  the  House. 

S.  B.  3,  on  which  we  are  now  voting,  and  which  is  the  Senate's  plan  for 
redistricting  the  Senate,  has  already  passed  the  Senate.  However,  this 
plan  is  grossly  unfair  to  Guilford  County,  because,  although  the  House  plan 
proposes  substantial  under-representation  for  Guilford  in  the  House,  the 
Senate  plan  proposes  to  make  Guilford  the  most  under-represented  county 
in  the  entire  state  in  the  Senate.  For  this  reason,  the  Guilford  delegation 
introduced,  in  the  Senate,  an  alternate  plan  for  redistricting  the  Senate, 
which  not  only  corrects  this  inequity,  but  also  comes  closer  to  meeting  the 
population  standards  set  out  by  the  Federal  Courts  for  redistricting  the 
entire  state.  Although  vigorous  efforts  were  made  to  enact  this  alternate 
plan,  these  efforts  were  unsuccessful,  and  S.  B.  3,  as  originally  introduced, 
was  passed  by  the  Senate.  It  was  apparent  that  the  Senate  was  unwilling 
to  approve  any  plan  other  than  the  one  embodied  in  S.  B.  3. 

Further,  H.  B.  1,  containing  the  plan  for  redistricting  the  House,  has 
not  yet  passed  the  House.  An  effort  to  place  Guilford  County  with  Randolph 
County  in  a  House  district,  though  so  far  unsuccessful,  may  yet  threaten 
Guilford's  House  representation,  making  advisable  Guilford's  cooperation, 
where,  as  in  this  case,  opposition  to  S.  B.  3  would  be  futile. 

For  the  above  reasons,  the  undersigned,  though  recognizing  the  inequity 
of  the  Senate  redistricting  plan  with  regard  to  Guilford  County,  but  feeling 
that  this  plan,  which  is  the  only  one  which  can  be  enacted,  is  preferable 
to  redistricting  by  the  Court,  vote  'Aye'  on  S.  B.  3."
