By Roll Call Report
WASHINGTON—Here’s how
area members of Congress
were recorded on major roll call
votes September 22-28.
HOUSE
POPULATION COMMIT-
TEE—Adopted, 258 for and 147
against, a resolution (H Res 70)
setting up a Select Committee
on Population to further study
the world population explosion
people participating in the Cotton Picking, Antique and
Crafts Fair in Gay, Ga.
and propose means of curbing
it. The committee is scheduled
to go out of business on Jan. 3,
1979. A specific price tag will be
considered later. Estimates are
that it will cost “no more than
’500,000” for staffing, travel and
other expenses.
Members voting “yea”
favored creating the committee.
Reps. Bo Ginn (D-l). Jack
Brinkley (D-3), Elliott
(D-4) and Ed Jenkins (D-9)
voted “yea.”
Reps. Dawson Mathis (D-2),
Wyche Fowler (D-5), John
Flynt (D-6), Lawrence
McDonald (D-7), Billy Lee
Evans (D-8) and Doug Barnard
(D-10) voted “nay.”
ASSASSINATIONS PANEL—
Adopted, 290 for and 112
against, a resolution (H Res
760) enabling the Select Com
mittee on Assassinations to go
into court on its own, without
the prior approval of the full
House that virtually all other
committees must obtain. The
panel, set up to uncover new
facts behind the murder of
Martin Luther King and
President John F. Kennedy,
now can seek immunity for
witnesses and contempt-of-
Congress citations without
consulting with the full House.
Members voting “yea”
favored broader legal authority
for the select committee.
Ginn, Mathis, Brinkley,
Flynt, Jenkins and
Barnard voted “yea.”
McDonald and Evans voted
“nay.”
EX-PRESIDENTS—FaiIed,
211 for and 203 against, to obtain
the two-thirds majority needed
for passage of a bill (HR 9278)
increasing former President
Ford’s annual staff payroll
allowance. A two-thirds
majority was required by the
short-cut parliamentary
procedure under which the bill
was brought to the floor.
Members voting “yea”
favored the larger payroll
allowance for ex-presidents.
Mathis and I £ vitas voted
“yea.”
Ginn, Brinkley, Flynt,
McDonald, Evans, Jenkins and
Barnard voted “nay.”
SENATE
ENERGY—FaiIed, 46 for and
52 against, to table and thus kill
an amendment to remove
federal controls from the price
of natural gas. The failure of
this tabling motion kept alive a
proposal to force immediate
deregulation of new natural gas
found on shore and
deregulation after 5 years of
new off-shore gas. The
deregulation plan would replace
President Carter’s call for
additional federal controls of
the natural gas at higher prices
than now exist. Carter’s plan is
a major part of the national
energy policy bill (S 2104) that
was on the Senate floor during
this vote.
Senators voting “yea” were
opposed to immediately
removing federal price controls
on on-shore natural gas.
Sens. Herman Talmadge (D)
and Sam Nunn (D) voted
“yea.”
ENERGY-Voted, 77 for and
17 against, to close a filibuster
on the pending national energy
policy bill (S 2104, see vote
above). This margin far ex
ceeded the three-fifths majority
necessary to invoke cloture.
However, it did not stop the
dilatory tactics of the
filibusterers, who turned next to
introducing scores of amend
ments and sent the Senate into
round-the-clock sessions for
several days.
Senators voting “nay”
favored expanded federal
controls on natural gas prices.
Talmadge and Nunn voted
“yea.”

Topless now decent
exposure in Texas
By Abigail Van Buren
r< 1977 by The Chicago Tribune N Y News Synd Inc
DEAR ABBY: Sorry, but you blew it when you said that
even though there was no law against females going
topless in Texas, they could be arrested for indecent
exposure and/or disorderly conduct.
Not so. According to the Texas Penal Code, effective
January 1, 1974, a female who goes bare-breasted in public
is not guilty of indecent exposure or disorderly conduct. (I
am enclosing a copy of the Penal Code.)
PARK RANGERS, AUSTIN, TEX.
DEAR PARK. Thank you. I hereby revise my answer to
read: Females who go topless in Texas cannot be arrested
for indecent exposure and/or disorderly conduct unless
they are also BOTTOMLESS!
DEAR ABBY: How can I help the man I love overcome
his reluctance to marry? We are both in our late 30s and
have been married before.
My marriage ended in divorce after 15 years. It was a
bad scene from the start. He says his marriage was a
12-year honeymoon. Then his wife died after a lingering
illiness. He says he will never marry again because he
couldn’t bear the experience of losing another wife. His
mother, with whom he lives, is raising his two children, so
he doesn’t need a wife to make a home for his children.
He claims that he loves me, but that he can’t consider
marriage. We are so right for each other and I want to
marry again. How can I get him to change his mind?
IOWAN
DEAR IOWAN: I don’t think you can. For a man to deny
himself happiness today because he may lose it tomorrow
doesn't make much sense. Don’t count on him if you have
marriage in mind. He hasn’t.
DEAR ABBY: My best girlfriend is in trouble and just
about everyone in the neighborhood knows about it. She
has been a good friend to me for a long time, and I really
like her. Some of my other friends tell me that if I hang
around with her, I will get a bad reputation because she’s
“bad,” and birds of a feather flock together. She’s never
been in any kind of trouble before.
What should I do?
UNDECIDED
DEAR UNDECIDED: Birds of a feather may or may not
always flock together, but I am reminded of another
saying: “One swallow doesn’t make a summer.” And one
mistake doesn’t make a girl “bad." If she’s your friend,
stick by her. She needs your friendship now more than
ever.
For Abby’s new booklet, “What Teen-agers Want to
Know,” send 11 to Abigail Van Buren, 132 Lasky Dr.,
Beverly Hills, Calif. 90212. Please enclose a long,
self-addressed, stamped (244) envelope.
