Mrs. Hammen lefl Jefferson City about one year ago following the death of her husband, Otis Hammen, a retired Missouri Pacific Railroad engineer. the former engineer was intoxicated on the job, "abou once a week." Complains were also heard from William P. Steinhauser, df- puty warden; William Bienlien, an overseer in the prison kitchen, and James Farmer, formerly employed at the diesel plant, that they did not get co-operation from Fitzpatrick, but on quesioning by Webser, said they didn't believe they would have discharged him if they had the power. Tells of Dismissal Whitecotton was called shortly before the committee adjourned at 11:55 a.

m. He told the circumstances of Fitzpatrick's, dismissal and produced several invoices on purchases by the engineer's office that he said were irregular in that they did not include.purchase orders. He said he had conducted an investigation and found that Fitzpatrick frequently had been absent from work, that he was intoxicated while on the job, that his relations with other employes were unsatisfactory and that he refused to co-operate with the warden, a necessity for security reasons. In cross-examination, Webster said Whitecotton had failed to produce any department heads who said they would discharge Fitzpatrick if they had the power Whitecotton also said he didn't know the particular time when asked about when the disagreements between Fitzpatrick and other employes had occurred However, he said he didn't remember any reports covering the last 12-month period. Earl L.

Ward, assistant purchasing agent, was called after testimony by Nelson to the effect thai Ward had told him the prison was one of the chief violators of purchase regulations. Ward said he couldn't recall any difficulties with the engineer's office and also couldn't recall any irregularities. He said the big trouble at the prison was the direct orders and that the department of prison industries was the worst violator. Whitecotlon was returned to the stand after Ward's testimony and purchase procedures during his previous term as director were questioned by Webster, particularly in the case of fire brick purchased from a Mexico firm between 1946 and 1948. Hugh Dallas, prison business agent, was ordered to get the records to be shown to the board this afternoon; The hearing resumed at 1 p.m.
