Page 6 — Griffin Daily News Saturday, April 2,1977 WASHINGTON (AP) - Many senators say they expect their new, self-imposed code of con duct to increase public con fidence in Congress, but a handful of dissenters are derid ing it as a “sham.” A month after the House adopted a similar code, the Senate overwhelmingly ap proved its own version Friday on an 86 to 9 vote. Senate Majority leader Rob ert C. Byrd said the code was absolutely necessary to restore daily IMO SUNDAY MONDAY /I X ■ j/| | J I nl • .. • W’xS4 I Ik /2r L/ llwfl I 4 AZA n Misses' Sizes / 3 Doy» f fT~ !l II * | vßil\ Sr ■'x Built-in tripod mount hnd \\ \ X fl ZWrJF Kreil B t \ modulated photometries f ~l r*i\ \\ \ \ VI A SfZ [l® H xi for better exposure. £ \ I \ 'A Ml 1/1 ?// fw U \// fl ft PRONTOIB-CAMERA II /Jr l\ /Aw 4180 Jtß iUOO I /I FRESS f / /1 W A .

Gaylord Nelson, D-Wis., chairman of the special com mittee that drafted the 11,000- word code, observed afterwards that voting against it involved “an obvious political risk.” But that didn’t keep some dissenters from saying the Sen ate had played an April Fool’s joke on the American public. Sen. Barry Goldwater, R- Ariz., called the code “a com- plete sham.” Sen. Lowell P. Weicker, R-Conn., said it was “a knee-jerk effort to quiet some criticism” of the recent $12,900 pay raise for members of Congress. Sen. Paul Laxalt, R-Nev., said the idea that the code would lift the Senate in public esteem was “sheer pop pycock.” “The real reason the public doesn’t think well of us as an institution is not because we don’t have a code of ethics, but because we just haven’t done a good job in addressing the serious problems of this coun try,” Laxalt declared. Nelson said the heart of the code was its requirement for the annual filing of reports dis closing income, assets, liabilities, property holdings and other financial data. This information is to be provided by categories, not in exact dollars and cents. For ex ample, a report would show whether a senator’s stock in a company was worth more than $5,000 but less than 5,000 or greater than $50,000 but less than SIOO,OOO. The code limits outside earned income to 15 per cerit of a senator’s $57,500 salary, or $8,625. That was a principal point of disagreement during the two-week Senate debate. In come from investments is not limited. The code also bars accept- ance of ejifts worth more than SIOO from any person or group with a direct interest in legisla tion and bans unofficial office accounts, often called “slush funds.” Restrictions on use of the frank, or free mailing privilege, are tightened. Lameduck sena tors can no longer travel abroad at public expense. And an ex senator would be barred from lobbying the Senate for a year after leaving office. news In! Chief sentenced GAINESVILLE, Ga. (AP) — Former Gainesville Police Chief G.A. Singleton has been sentenced to three years on probation after being convicted of two charges of public indecency and two charges of simple battery. A Hall County State Court jury found Singleton innocent Friday of two other counts of public indecency. Judge Winfred Smith also ordered Singleton to pay a SI,OOO fine. Two policewomen had claimed that while he was chief Singleton made improper advances toward them. Singleton denied the charges. Singleton retired Feb. 17 after 30 years with the department, five and a half years as chief. Citizens pay fine DOUGLAS, Ga. (AP) — The first installment of a $6,800 fine imposed on 29 policemen and 17 firemen who staged a six-day “sickout” was paid Friday from contributions by Douglas citizens. Representatives of the police and fire department delivered $1,380 to the clerk of the Coffee County Superior Court. Each of the 46 policemen and firemen agreed to pay a $l5O fine as part of the negotiated settlement of the walkout which began last month after the firing of Douglas Police Chief Garlian Faulkner. Judge Ben Hodges of the Waycross Judicial Circuit, who issued the back-to-work order, agreed that the fines could be paid in five installments at two-week intervals. Kidnap indictments MARIETTA, Ga. (AP) — A Cobb County grand jury has indicted Melvin Patrick Carroll of Woodstock, Ga., on two counts of kidnaping in the abduction last August of Atlanta food distributor Nick Moore. Police said Moore was abducted from a Cobb County motel where he had delivered food supplies. He later was found shot to death beside a Troup County road. Carroll, 30, who was indicted Thursday, is serving an unrelated sentence in the Fulton County jail on a con viction in January of aggravated assault with intent to rob, police said. Elvis resting well in Memphis hospital MEMPHIS (AP) - Enter tainer Elvis Presley is reported “resting well” at Baptist Hospi tal while undergoing medical tests and treatment for in testinal flu and fatigue. The 42-year-old Presley was admitted to the hospital early Friday after cancelling a per formance at Baton Rouge, La., where he was to have appeared at the Louisiana State Univer sity Assembly Center. Dr. George Nichopoulos, Presley’s physician, said he is sure his patient is suffering from intestinal flu. “We had a lot of it on the tour,” he said. The tests are being conducted to determine the exact nature of the ailment. Nichopoulos said Presley will One hour "imnuinr 0«r- •<«« THE MOSI IN DRY CLEANING 4b? A- Solomon Mree’ 118 ‘Aot!
