Murrian, Knoxville, board member of the National Association of Manufacturers, yesterday appealed to all Tennesseans to demand that congress balance the budget and reduce taxes. Murrian's appeal followed the adoption, of Directors resolution of by NAM the in New York recently which called on the administration and congress to take steps to provide for prompt and simultaneous reduction of expenditures and the cutting of both individual and corporate taxes. boMurrian expressed revealed "deep that concern" over reports that the national government's budget will not be sufficiently reduced through government economies to permit a balanced budget and tax reduction i in the fiscal year beginning July 1.
"The board." Murrian said, "is opposed to continued deficit financing and believes that the present national debt limit should not be exceeded." The board member said that one method by which the federal government could cut expenses would be for the public to urge senators and congressmen to stop seeking handouts for their home districts. "The government can give us nothing that it does not first take away from us," Murrian continued. "The money comes right out of the very pockets of the people they are trying to help." Tennessee people can help cut federal spending, he added, but the place to start is right in our own home towns.

Brownell today announced a crackdown on alleged federal job selling in Georgia and said the practice will "not be tolerated anywhere by anyone." The attorney general said a federal grand jury in Savannah had indicted six persons on charges of soliciting money or offering either, in connection with post office jobs.
Brownell said he ordered the investigation April 2 immediately after Republican leaders in Georgia informed him of alleged job selling recommendations for postal appointments. Dispatches from Waycross, said two Negro Republican party officials were arrested and arraigned there on charges of government job peddling. The report said the two were put under $1000 bond each along with a white man accused of offering money for job consideration. Brownell said the following were indicted individually: Tom C. Williams of Waycross, chairman of the Republican committee for the 8th congressional district of Georgia.
Henry Grady Smith, rural mail carrier at Jesup, Ga. Wilson Truett Tuten, postmaster at Bristol. Ga. Isaac J. White of Blackshear, Ga.
Chestnut A. Thompson of Jesup, Ga. James M. Kent of St. Simons, Ga.
Fuller identification was not available here, but GOP sources in Georgia said Tuten was a white man, Williams was a wealthy Negro mortician and White was Negro Republican chairman of Pierce County. Brownell recalled his April 2 statement that he hoped the grand jury investigation "would serve to give notice in all parts of the country that job selling would not be tolerated anywhere by anyone." MANY PRISONERS ARRESTED ON FRIVOLOUS CHARGES HAVE BEEN BEATEN UP AT CITY JAIL! some things that have been The way many pris- Van Thompson, who was found dead in the City Jail a few days ago is gone, but here is found out by his going that's alarming. oners arrested for frivolous charges have been beaten up at City Jail. Van Thompson's death was attributed to heart attack, but he had a very bad cut in his forehead and a bruise in his forehead. The police claims that this man was hurt in an automobile wreck.
I talked to different people who were at this small supposed to be wreck and they say that not a sign was visible that Van Thompson was injured in an automobile wreck. On automobile that Van Thompson was driving no dent was hardly visible, but still a bad cut, one inch long, in Van Thompson's forehead and other visible bruises were found on his dead body. I watched the autopsy performed on Van Thompson's body and I know bruises and cuts when I see them. His heart was not enlarged, but a heart attack can be SEVEN OF OUR STORES NEVER CLOSE brought about according to some of the best doctors, by over exhaustion, by excitement, by worry, or by physical violence. Dr.
Monger and Dr. Mahon performed this autopsy and did a thorough job of it. Of course they did not elaborate on what caused Van Thompson's heart attack. Van Thompson was a personal friend of mine and I have never deserted a friend when I thought he needed my help. Even though Van Thompson might have had the habit of too much drink, he did not deserve to die in City Jail.
This has never been explained. He was locked up around 6 o'clock at night. According to all rules and regulations he was supposed to have had bond in four hours. This would have been 10 o'clock that night. Bruce Dennis at the Glenwood Sandwich.
Shop on 6th Avenue, offered to make his bond about 2 or 3 times during the night and as late as 2:30 a.m. but was told Thompson was in no shape to be let out. If he was sick why didn't they tell Bruce Dennis and he would have had his family doctor to call or why didn't the police take Thompson to the hospital. Van Thompson was found dead, by the best information I have been able to get, around 10 minutes to 7 a.m. the following morning.
It looks to me like somebody very badly neglected their duty. This man's life might have been saved. This man was a tree climber and apparently was in to 70 feet in the air, then climb the rope to the limb. fect health. He could throw a rope around the tree's limb He could do more work than 2 or 3 ordinary men.
The a most of his work as a tree trimmer or surgeon, was gotten by me for him over my public service radio announcements. His work was entirely satisfactory. He was always fair in his prices and has worked for some of the finest people of Knoxville. I'm not mad, at any individual policeman, but I do think that they should be more careful in the handling of men in our City Jail. I understand that Van Thompson was arrested by one of my worst critics.
I would not want to know that he had mistreated Van Thompson, just because he had a big pistol and a big billy on his hips. Policeman Armstrong, who was acting as jailer the night that Van Thompson was found dead the following morning has a good record. It would be hard to believe that he abused Van Thompson in any way. If one of my policemen friends, I thought had been mistreated, I'd be the very first to go to the bat for him. Practically every policeman is my friend that stands out for rights.
Of course a policeman can't be my friend that deals with the "underworld." Such was brought out by the Hugh James Miller's affidavits. These affidavits were checked and I was convinced that they were facts. The above column. made possible by your purchases made at the Cas Walker Super Markets of Knoxville and Morristown. Adv..
