(Jimmy) Quillen has been receiving the congratulations of numerous colleagues of the previous session on coming out of the finals as the Congressman with the highest percentage of votes cast as against the votes of his opponent. Quillen is digging into the heavy legislative chores assigned to the Public Works committee of which he is a member, with special attention to the modified Appalachian bill which he strongly favors. He has also been reappointed to the influential Committee on Committees. Legislature Quillen (Continued from page 1, col. 7) tion offered during this session.

Among other things, the measure would abolish the county quota system for admitting patients to mental hospitals and would "improve the quality of mental health research in our state." Bill Of Rights Caldwell labeled his measure "bill of rights" for mentally ill persons in the state and said it has the support of the Tennessee Mental Health Association. The bill calls for 75 changes in the proposals recommended last November by the Tennessee Legislative Council. The most expensive phase of the program, Caldwell said, would be the abolition of the county quotas. "The bill takes the position that a mentally ill person needs hospitalization and should not be denied this care simply because his county has already reached its quota on admissions," Caldwell said. Uncensored Mail Other sections of the bill would guarantee patients the right to send or receive sealed mail without censorship, require two licensed physicians to make a mental examination instead of just one and would allow the state mental health commissioner to authorize the transfer of patients from one hospital to another for the patient's benefit.

The bill also would authorize voluntary admissions based on need, admissions, those for emergency involuntary treatment as ordered by doctors, and court-ordered admissions. Caldwell said, the program would cost an additional $1 million a year. Public hearings on the bill will be held about the week of Feb. 1, he said. "These measures will I require considerable additional funds, primarily a replacement of funds formerly expended by local county governments that will not be borne by the state if this legislation passes," Caldwell said.

other action yesterday, the Senate and House voted to hold regular sessions next week, even though several members of both bodies will be in Washington for President Johnson's inauguration. Both houses will meet jointly at 10:30 a.m. today to elect the state's constitutional officers. The unopposed candidates are Secretary of State Joe Carr, State Treasurer Jim Alexander and State Comptroller William Snodgrass. Local bills will be introduced in the Senate at 10 a.

while the House will consider general bills at 12:30 p. m. Minor Matters Its speakership fight settled, the Senate took up several minor matters in a 35-minute session, then set Tuesday for the next showdown between administration forces, and a group of senators led by Sen. Frank Gorrell, D-Nashville. It will come over the rules under which the 1965 Senate will operate.

Sen. Ward Crutchfield, D-Chattanooga, a member of the Gorrell camp and chairman of a committee named Tuesday to study Senate rules, submitted the committee's suggested changes yesterday. One, already defeated in the House, would permit the sponsors of a bill to bring it to the floor for a vote over administration opposition under. certain conditions. The rules were a major reason the Democratic senators supporting Gorrell gave for opposing Maddux in the speakership fight.

Sen. Hobart Atkins, R-Knox-: ville, introduced a bill to require that imported meat be labeled identifying its source. House bills introduced yesterday included one by Rep. V. F.

Goddard, R-Maryville, to allow Tennesseans 65 years of age and older to fish, trap or hunt without buying a license. Other Bills Other bills introduced would: Allow Tennessee's federal judges to perform marriages. Require ownership identification on the sides or the rear the rearmost unit of a motor transport truck.

The House also passed resolutions memorializing two state legislators who died this yearAllen M. (Mac) O'Brien of Springfield and H. A.

Morgan of Chester County. At the time of his death, Morgan had the longest tenure in the Legislature. O'Brien, who died Oct. 3, had served in both houses after being first elected in 1954. Fight (Continued From Page 1, Col.

7) March 20 since it's not likely any will spend time here out of the goodness of their heart. This leaves the assembly. 'with roughly 66 days. to- study enact legislation to carry the state another two years. Of prime importance is the proposed repeal of the threeper-cent sales tax on utilities, repair of personal property, and laundry.

Several legislators, including Sen. Marshall T. Nave, R-Elizabethton, ran for election on a promise to repeal the measure which was passed by the 1963 Legislature with the backing of the Clement Adminlistration. During the August primary campaign, Tennesseans heard much of the repeal, but, strangely, it has seldom been mentioned since that time. The tax played a big part in defeating Gov.

Frank G. Clement in his bid for the U.S. Senate. Die In Committee Since they've been nominated and elected, many senators and house members are hoping a bill to repeal the tax will he introduced but will die in committee. This way, the legislators could fulfill a promise to work for repeal, but would not then have to face the idea of cutting funds for education, mental health, and highways.

Gov. Clement has already made clear his feelings on the tax repeal. In a speech last month, the governor said, "I submit the matter of repealing this tax to your good judgment and the judgment and discretion of your elected representatives in the legislature. The result of the repeal, of course," Gov. Clement continued.

"would be a reduction of the amount of available funds for every ty and city in Tennessee to every elementary and high school in our He concluded. "If this source of revenue is taken away, other sources must be found or needed state services must be ellminated or reduced." Capital Punishment While a legislator may hear more gripes over his stand on taxation than on any other problem, a completely different matter will probably cause him to lose more sleep. That problem is the proposed repeal of capital punishment. Lewis Taliaferro, D- Memphis, has already prepared a bill to eliminate the death penalty. While it is not yet obvious just how the bill will read, it is likely it would abolish capital punishment except for a convicted murderer who kills in prison.

Gov. Clement has always spoken against the death penalty for repeal of it. The for continuing) future of the repealer may depend upon just how strong a stand the chief executive takes when he addresses the General Assembly.Another far-reaching problem de that co reapportionment. A suit filed recently in U.S. District Court here will probably force.

the assembly to take some type of action to ensure that the U.S. Supreme Court's "one man, one vote" mandate is carried out. Metropolitan areas, especially Shelby County, contend they are under -represented under the current congressional districting plan. Atkins Plan Sen. Hobart Atkins, R-Knoxville, has already drawn up a plan which would give Shelby County, (Memphis) two congressmen to share with a halfdozen adjoining rural counties.

Shelby presently has one congressman to itself. Atkins' plan would give an advantage to the Republican Party, separating usually Democratic counties (Anderson County, for example) from usually Republican districts such as the 2nd. But before March 20 arrives, Atkins' plan probably will have given way as the Democratic majority attempts to avoid court action while doing what is right and, at the same time, helping the Democratic Party. Milligan (Continued From Page 1, Col. 7) "new message" to every single person that country to them there is no God and that religion is anti Under Tildy, The former premier served under the first president of Hungary, Zoltan: Tildy, after World War IL.

Communist pressure forced Nagy out of the country. The purpose of the Soviet Communist government's "war on religion," according to Nagy, is to get rid of its greatest ideological enemy. "Those who believe in God will never make good Communists is a thing the Soviet government knows well," Nagy said. Nagy said the article in Pravda explained that an Institute of Scientific Atheism is being formed by the Russian government to justify atheism and "make God look ridiculous." Nagy explained the great danger of the anti-religious program is that it will not remain strictly Soviet Russian. He said the Communists feel if they can doubts about God, they feel they can also create doubts about other things, thus weakresistance to Communist aims.

Great Factor The speaker said America's faith is a great factor enabling newly and weak nations to resist Communist blandishments. He indicated that when the faith of the United States wavers, that of others wavers too. Soviet government will not base their campaign against religion on force, but rather on conviction." Nagy explained. He said the Sovie government, as stated in Pravda, will use all the intellectual forces at hand, including prestigious Soviet leaders, to turn the epople religion. would not be surprised to.

see pamphlets start appearing on campuses in the United States soon espousing the doctries of atheism. Nagy stated. "These tracts will probably be aimed at the intellectually snobbish youth," he continued. The former premier said, "American youth should be prepared to resist this Communist conspiracy supporting atheism." Great Pressures Nagy said the Communistswill do their best to show the world they are not persecuting religion, while at the same time they are applying great pressures on the Russian populace to erase religion in the Soviet state. "The world must see that the United States can maintain religious morality and faith, even with the great scientific nature of the country, if the world is to withstand the sophistry of: "scientific Communist atheism." Nagy said.

"The true triumph of science," Nagy continued, "will be when science recognizes that the elements with which it works were created millions of years ago by God." Nagy challenged the youth of the United States to stand as examples to the youth of the world in resisting the insidious pressures towards cynicism and decadence represented by Communism and the atheistic pollcies of that ideology. $35 million in taxes STUART, Fla.
