The bond issue would be retired by higher tax- es on liquor, beer and Bond Setting Scheduled In al Coed Slaying ate bill Several clergymen found themselves on opposile sides of the issue, some quoting Scrip- to cement their beliefs. One of them, the Rev. R. E. McNeil, told the House com- Cf Intin'c mittee that 250 policemen were killed between I960 and 1966, and 462 were slain in the na- tion in the next five years, af- ter the death penalty was aban- doned.

Pointing to a placard reading i "Thou shall not kill," carried by a Morris Harvey student in Monday's anli death penalty march, the Rev. Millard Mitch- ell of Calvary Baptist Church in Nitro told legislators that vio- lating that commandment also carries a penalty. John Bower, representing the United Methodist Church, said Old Testament Scriptures a superceded by the ministry of Christ in the ew Testament. A South Charleston priest, Father Hilarion V. Cann, said: "It's a lot easier to kill some- one than to stand with out hurt and our vengeance." Janitor Matthew Thornhill said he was opposed to "killing anybody for anything."

Organizer ot the march on the statehouse, Jack Hardin, said the return of the death penalty would throw the state back to the past.

I believe the health and velfare of our citizens is of rime importance.

Furthermore, to make special promises to do articular projects, loing to be done, because many imes, after studying and learn ng the various aspects about these matters, you may find hat the ideas may have been mpractical and sometimes leg- illy impossible. Besides these facts I despise omeone who does not keep his promises and I do not wish-to put myself in that category; Most assuredly I have ideas on vays of aleviating the doctors hortage here as well ag other ituations that exist in and for the correct solution or which will make our city a ette'r, safer, more prosperous and more attractive city to live and become the envy of oth- cities.
