B.D. Bramdon of Little Rock that gave a $100,000 supplemental appropriation to the Department of Correction for purchase of new farm machinery.

Robert Sarver, commissioner of correction, had sought $171,000 to purchase new tractors and farm implements to get the spring crops planted at Cummins and Tucker prison farms. Sarver said the department wanted to borrow the money from the state treasury and would repay it from a $1.4 million capital improvements bond issue it is planning. The bond issue would be used principally to construct a minimum security unit at Cummins and to further mechanize the penitentiary farming operations. The committee approved $5,692,000 for 1969-70 and $6,100,000 in 1970-71 for the Children's Colony, which was was less than requested by the colony. LEGISLATIVE (from page one) Jr.

The first week of the current session several House officials siad there was a concerted effort to reduce the nepotism, especially that involving children. The, score of persons -who have appeared on each payroll have been working throughout the session, handling the various clerical work that accompanies any legislative session.

In last year's campaigns, Crank's opponents took the 18- year legislator to task for having his wife and four children on the payrolls through the years. The nepotism issue also may have played a part in former Rep. Bill Wells' loss to Maurice Britt in the lieutenant governor's race. Wells had four of his sons working as pages during a special legislative session last May but only two of the boys received checks.

ROSENTHAL Associated Press Writer LOS ANGELES (AP) A book about five famous murders brought the Sirhan Bishara Sirhan murder trial to a virtual standstill while attorneys argued about how much of the text the jury will see.

It won't be much. The state contends Dr. Martin Schorr, a psychologist the defense had on the witness stand all last week, cribbed liberally from the book in testifying that Sirhan killed Sen. Robert F. Kennedy as a symbolic replica of his hated father.

Prosecutor John E. Howard argued for admission of some 90 pages of "A Casebook of a Crime Psychiatrist" by Dr. James A. Brussel to show similarities with Schorr's testimony. Another state's attorney said the book is "not a learned treatise, but a popular piece of fiction" and that the jury cannot evaluate the material without knowing "the flavor of this book." Schorr conceded he had read the book, but the question of whether he copied from it for his diagnosis had not been put to him directly.

Judge Herbert V. Walker, granting defense objections, ruled the state could excerpt only portions that coincided with Schorr's testimony and present them side-by-side to the jury. The jury was in the courtroom for only about one hour Monday as the trial went into its 10th week. The arguments over the book were conducted out of the jury's hearing in the afternoon. Howard had the psycholigist read from a letter Monday in which Schorr expressed his eagerness to help the defense on the case.

The letter was dated July little more than a month after Sirhan mortally wounded Kennedy. DOUBLE TALK Lions Pick candidates Senate Doves Holding Back, Not Fulbright HUBERT THRASH fnt Int.

By JACK'BELL AP Political Writer WASHINGTON (AP) Most Senate doves are hanging back, apparently willing to give dent Nixon more time to try to end the Vietnam war, as J. Fulbright and George S. Me- Govern revive the attacks that helped bring down Lyndon son.

McGovern, South Dakotart who sought the Democratic presidential nomination as a peace candidate, said Monday that Nixon may be sowing seeds of "national tragedy and certainly of personal political disaster" by continuing Johnson policies. Fulbright, Chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee, opened up last week, ending a nearly complete Senate silence on Vietnam since the Republican President took office. But McGovern made his attack to an almost empty Senate and, significantly, no covey of doves showed up to discuss his suggestion that stepped up U.S. military activities in the past five months may have triggered the current enemy offensive. Majority Leader Mike Mansfield and Whip Edward M.

Kennedy were quick to disassociate themselves from McGovern's stand. Both are standing fast against what they regard as premature criticism of Nixon. They feel it could tag the Democrats with the charge they are playing politics with the war. Mansfield told reporters that those who criticize the President's the Democratic leader frequently did when Johnson was in the White House should remember that Nixon inherited the Vietnam war. The Montana Senator said that while Johnson's policies are given leeway and flexibility to develop his own.

Kennedy said that Nixon had shown some restraint by not escalating the war in response to the Viet Cong attacks. "He said in the campaign that he has a peace plan," Kennedy said. "He has stated in leadership meetings that the plan is in effect in the negotiations in Paris We should give an opportunity for the plan tote tested. I am not convinced that the president has been given the opportunity to do that." Kennedy added that the leaders have not been told what Nixon's plan is. Actually, Nixon confined himself in the campaign to saying that a Republican president would end the war.

But if there are no identifiable signs of progress in the Paris talks, the Democrats can be expected in time to begin asking pointed questions about what Obituaries KENNETH WHEAT Kenneth Wheat, of Mr, and Mrs, William Edward Wheat, died Monday at his home In McNab, He is also survived by a ther, Vince Edward Wheat; grandparents, Mrs, Agnes Ford of Ashdown, and Mr, and Mrs. William Wheat of McNab.

"There has been no cordiality or dialogue between the governor and me since that time," Scott said. He said he was submitting his resignation at ths time for two reasons. "In the first place I am convinced that the governor intended to replace me at the end of the legislative session.

In the second place I wanted to point up, if possible, the importance of taking the Arkansas State Police out of politics if there is any legislative means for this accomplishment," Scott said. In his letter to the governor, Scott said it was clear "that we are not in accord in our concepts of moral and ethical conduct for my offiers and my un- compromisingposition' has 1 very possibly widened the gap between us," Scott said. "It is clear that intensified efforts are being made to sabotage the organization by cells of disloyalty within and without," he said. "Lately new rumors, if they are rumors, are being planted almost daily and those who oppose me have much closer lines of communication than I do." the Nixon plan is and why hasn't produced results.

On the other hand, officials agreed that the money-tightening move may discourage some corporations from borrowing at this time to finance new plant and equipment outlays.

This would be a salutary effect, most administration experts agree. A government survey, announced last Thursday, showed, that companies plan a 14 per cent increase in 1969 over the 1968 level of plant and equipment outlays. Such an upswing in business spending could, in the opinion of many officials, frustrate the government's efforts to cool off the boom by the credit-tightening efforts of the Federal Reserve toard, a' clampdbwrt on government spending. If the boost in the prime rate with or without an accompanying rise in the discount rate causes any sizeable number of firms to defer their expansion plans, this will be considered a welcome development in most administration quarters.
