1 SECTION 2-PAGE 1-PLAINDEALER- FEBRUARY 9, 1972 McCLORY REPORTS F r o m W a s h i n g t o n Chronic absenteeism in the Congress has motivated Senator Margaret Chase Smith of Maine to propose a Con­ stitutional amendment to expel members who fail to be recorded on 40 percent or more of the roll call votes Those who are missing most frequently when the roll is called are members of the Senate who aspire to become the Democratic nominee for President. Their absences from the Senate chamber have contributed to the failure of that body to act on many legislative measures -- some of which should have high priority The Constitution did not contemplate the need for such a drastic step as Senator Smith has proposed because, originally, members of the House and Senate were com­ pensated only for days when they actually served in Washington Since Senators and Representatives today receive annual salaries, the inducement for regular at­ tendance is far less than in the early days of the Republic. Of course, it wouJd seem that absences occasioned by certain other official duties should be excused For instance, two members of the House of Representatives serve as congressional delegates to the United Nations -- which result in their frequent absences from House sessions The jneasure sponsored by Senator Smith is not intended to prevent such essential activities - but is directed primarily at those who neglect their congressional responsibili t ies, and use their office in the United States Congress as a platform from your week ahead BY DR. A.W. DAMIS Forecast Period: February 13 February 20, 1972 Should someone insist that they are a good friend beware' Little in your chart gives cause of optimism So, try to make it through the week without airing a grievance The Planet Venus has now moved well into your Twelfth House What does that mean7 For some under your sign, there will be love secrets; surprises moves in affairs of the heart. The more light in your eyes, the blinder you become You must face the facts of life, con­ cerning a romance that affects you in one form or another Repetition, boredom and your refusal to give way to the advice given you by an associate, is in the scheme of things Also, there should be less opposition from co-workers Better start listening to something inside. It seems as though many under your sign will let their desire to romp and frolic interfere with daily routine Don't experiment with your health According to your chart, you're inclined to tamper with a chronic physical problem. Also, you might over react to the words of an associate The Planet Saturn is going to pin you down. In other words, your activities with a member of the opposite sex will be curtailed. A foolish act on your part is also indicated • Changes you have long had in mind, concern­ ing a member of the opposite sex, can now be made with a minimum of adjustment. You are undergoing one of those unusual phases when there is little wrong you can do, concerning finances It's highly possible, also, that an impressive stranger might cross your path Be careful of an emotional explosion that could trigger a chain of events affecting your daily routine Oh, yes' An apology, or at least admitting a mistake to yourself, is likely Bluntly, you're much too self-centered, during this cosmic cycle An associate will make plain their disappointment in your attitude. Also, a door will close on one relationship, while another opens You're not a student of the theory that you should continue to make the same mistakes with a member of the opposite sex. Nonethe­ less, what you consider to be sound logic, more than likely, will turn out as systemized self deceit PERSONALITY PROFILE For your Sun Sign Ar>oly»i«, lend the doy, month, year ond place of birth, plus 50< for poiloge ond handling fo Dr Andrew W Dami., P O fton 12766, St P.terjburg Florida 33733 ARIES Mar. 21 - Apr 19 TAURUS Apr 20 May 20 GEMINI May 21 June 20 MOONCHILD June 21 July 22 LEO July 23 Aug 22 VIRGO Aug 23 Sept 22 LIBRA Sept 23 Oct 22 SCORPIO Oct 23 - Nov 21 SAGITTARIUS Nov 22 Dec 21 CAPRICORN Dec 22 Jan 19 AQUARIUS Jan 20 Feb 18 PISCES Feb 19 Mar 20 KEENEYE'S TIPS ON SHOOTING f ' r C The bald eagle and the golden eagle are protected by federal law.

Distributed as a public service by National Rifle Association winch 10 campaign for the office ol President Senator Smith herself was a candidate lor President in the 1964 election, but continued to maintain her near-perfect attendance record during the entire t ime. With an 85 percent average attendance record on the part of all members of the House of Representatives (even in eluding excused absences for official business, this member had an K8 percent attendance record luring the first session of the 92nd Congress), it is clear that only a relatively few members are guilty of f lagrant absences. In castigating some of her colleagues. Mrs. Smith has charged that the Senate "has become a mere springboard to those who would use it -- even abuse it - for their selfish in­ terests. whether such interests be commercializing their position and title with the acquisition of high-price lec­ ture fees or running for President. ' ' Notwithstanding this sharp rebuke, it is doubltful that Senator Smith's proposed Constitutional amendment will receive widespread support. Nevertheless, her action, coupled with the national publicity which it has received, may encourage closer attention to attendance records.
