lawmakers are finding much to
fret about these days—including
glue sniffers, bloodless bull
fights and a “spy-in-the-sky”
plan to catch speeding motor
ists.
In Florida, there is a fear
that the capital may be
snatched away from Tallahas
see and moved to Orlando.
And of course there is a fili
buster going on. In Alabama a
talkathon is raging against a
gasoline tax redistribution bill
sponsored by a lawmaker who
is know’n as “the wily fox from
Wilcox.”
There are a peck of prob
lems, and many of them were
under discussion Tuesday.
The Florida legislature prob
ably had the most interesting
session. Before quitting for the
day, it discussed:
—Sending up airplanes to
“spy - in - the - sky” on speed-1
ing motorists.
—Becoming the first state to
legalize bloodless bullfights.
“We’ve heard from everyone
but the bull on this act,” com
mented one witness during a
hearing.
—Using the Daytona Interna
tional Speedway as a testing
grounds to find “safe” tires for
state patrol cars.
—A resolution sponsored by
the “Keep the Capital in Tal
lahassee Committee” in a bat
tle to keep down-state elements
from stealing the seat of gov
ernment and moving it to a
more convenient location.
Florida lawmakers also had
a tense moment when a resolu
tion was introduced expressing
sorrow over the death of Soviet
cosmonaut Vladimir Komarov,
It was withdrawn because sev
eral lawmakers didn’t want to
be put in the position of acting
on something concerning a
Communist.
The South Carolina legislature
faced the heady problem of
glue sniffing, but nothing was
resolved. The bill would go so
> far as to ban certain glues
from the market.
A significant sign appeared on
the desk of North Carolina Sen.
Jack White.
It stated: “No man’s life, lib
erty or property are safe while
the legislature is in session.”
It was a quote from a New
York court decision in 186 k
It did not dismay the senator.
He announced that it must have
; been intended for Sen. Tom
. White, a colleague. |
NO SOLUTION
MILWAUKEE, Wis. (UPI) —
Methodist Bishop Richard C.
Raines of Indianapolis says the j
constitutional amendment pro
posed by Sen. Everett M.
Dirksen, R-111., to permit
prayers in public schools will
fail to achieve its purpose.
Bishop Raines told a weekend
church conference no prayer
I designed for public school use
would please all religious
groups and agnostics would find
any prayer to a God objectiona
ble. This, he said, would make
the prayer meaningless.

Hunger Strike
At Wilkinson
Is Called Off
ATLANTA (UPl)—State Cor
rections Department Director
Asa Kelley has reported pri
soners at the Wilkinson Countv
work camp Tuesday ended their
two- day hunger strike and
work stoppage.
Kelley said a department of
ficial convinced the 22 inmates
the action was not in their best
interest. He said the strikers
would be punished, but not se
verely.
The prisoners went on a hun
ger strike and refused to work
i Sunday over a change in policy
! that limits visiting privileges.
The work camp was the scene
of a department investigation
ordered by Gov. Lester Mad
dox after four Negro fugitives
surrendered to him recently at
a public reception at the gov
. ernor’s mansion.
The four complained of al
leged cruelties and poor living
conditions.
Kelley’s probe revealed “un
clean, unsanitary and old” fa
cilities and Wilkinson officials
were given up to 45 days to
clean up or lose state prison
ers.
A House investigation of all
county prison camps was also
begun this week. It was di
! rected by Speaker George L.
Smith and is being led by Rep.
Jake Dailey of Cuthbert.
A six-man team visited the
Coweta County prison camp
Tuesday and reported it was in
“excellent condition."
A Negro prisoner at the Wilk
inson camp drowned while re
trieving ducks for a camp
guard, the Kelley probe had re
vealed.
LEUKEMIA RETURNS—Leuke
mia cells have shown up
again in the blood of Frankie
Hayes, 9, who had a com
plete remission after being
treated with the anti-cancer
drug L-asparaginase, accord
ing to the chairman of the
Wadley Research Institute
in Dallas, Tex. Doctors said
return of the malignant cells
probably was due to the fact
that the boy had not received
a large enough dose of drug.
Gwinnett Case
Headed For
Federal Court
SAVANNAH, Ga. (UPI)—U.S.
District Court Judge Frank
Scarlett Tuesday ordered the
cases of two condemned men
convicted ofslaying three police
officers transferred to the north
ern district of federal court.
The transfer was ordered in
habeas corpus proceedings for
Venson Eugene Williams and
former Gwinnett County deputy
sheriff Alec Evans, who seek a
new trial. It means new pro
ceedings could be heard in At
lanta, Athens or Gainesville.
Atlanta attorney Lynn Dow-
I ney, who represents Williams,
said the transfer would be more
convenient but Gainesville law
yer Robert W. Thompson, rep
resenting Evans, said he was
willing to remain in Scarlett’s
1 court.
■ Williams, Evans and Wade
; Truett were indicted in Jan
l uary, 1965, for the gangland -
■ style murders of Gwinnett po
licemen Jerry Everett, Ralph
! Davis and Jesse Gravitt. The
i three were killed April 14, 1964,
! with their own revolvers on a
i dirt road south of Lawrenceville.
Truett was promised immun-
■ ity and testified against Wil
liams and Evans, who were con
victed in October, 1965, and sen
tenced to die.
The Georgia Supreme Court
and the U.S. Supreme Court
have rejected their appeals for
new trials.
The habeas corpus petitions
W’ere aimed at getting the cases
■ back into federal court, through
I the sth U. S. Circuit Court of
j Appeals.
The attorneys planned to cite
I. judicial errors and a biased
I j jury in their demand for new
II trials.
