concrete action on any of the issues which have split the House into bitter factions and prevented a quorumsince early March One of the issues is whether Premier Mossadegh should receive undisputed authority over the larmy which now regards the Shah as its potential if not actual commander-in-chief Most of the session was taken up with three broadside attacks on Mossadegh by leading opposition deputies 'British Tools' Shamseddin Ghanatabadi lieutenant of Ayatullah Kashani religious leader and speaker of the House declared Mossadegh was surrounded by "British tools" He said the premier's chief aides formerly opposed his Nationalist movement while those who helped him to power were now called traitors He added there was reason to believe the actual murderers of the national police chief Mohammed Afshartus were Security Force chiefs who are now directing the case against the alleged plotters Afshartus vanished April 21 and it was not until five days later that his btaly was

"rather disgusted" when Ellis Slack former Justice Department attorney dropped a case against Herbert and Manuel Eskind here Gray saidlt was the first such instance in his 30 years of Government service He told the congressional probers he had a conference in his Louisville office May 25 1948 with Rep Pat Sutton of Tennessee with Harry Strong former Internal Revenue agent retained by the late Massey Sutton's father-in-law and with Joe Wilson special agent at Nashville handling a case invoMng Massey Gray said it was agreed that before writing hie final report Wilson would consider additional information to be obtained at Lawrenceburg about Massey's income and this was done Gray said he did not promise to get a Chicago conference for Massey and that Massey hadi "slept on his rights" by failing to ask one of the regional office before the case was forwarded to Washington Gray said that he being "down at the bott6m of the totem pole" had no power to grant a Chicago conference Sutton told reporters he will testify about the Massey case after the other witnesses are heard Ginsberg has been Identified by former Acting District Attorney Dick Johnson as one person who reported the rumor of a fix in the Alford case John Hooker attorney for Alford probably will testify Wednesday The hearings will continue through Friday and possibly next subcommittee counsel

could be so firmly entrenched that Congress could not budge them Capehart in urging the standby powers said it was a question of "confidence in the President and Vice President of the United States" Morse quipped that might be a good reason for him to oppose The Senate approved by voice vote an amendment by Sen Milton Young (R D) which would fix ceiling prices of farm products the event of a not

offered here (Monday) Wag given short shift which might indicate to some people that it had not received serious consideration But it did not lead me to believe this That whole suffrage provision was laid open to this convention and I hold myself answerable to no authority except my own conscience "I did think that perhaps my proposal would have received con- sideration enough to indicate a sentiment Certainly I have the right as a delegate and as a lifelong citizen of Tennessiee to offer my views as to unfairness in the present constitution And if I had not done that I would have been a coward politically and morally "I don't think any delegate here will feel he must first consult the Tennessean before he first makes known his views on any question before us "The man who wrote than teditorialr ought to be everlamtingly ashamed" Hooper concluded amid one of the loudest ovations of the convention Delegate (Jack) Smith of Kingsport a or in assistant state attorney general also defended Hooper and said that he was "a great American a great liberal and a great leader of the Republican Party "I am of the opposite political faith" said mit "but I have never found him lacking in the elements of good faith and conscience lie presented what he thought was germane He was elected as vice-chairman of this convention without opposition and as one Democrat I want to pay tribute to thin great Tennessean "Long may he live and continue to fight for what he thinks la best for thie great commonwealth" Smith said Smith said he had known "Governor" Hooper for some 40 years as he further praised hie independence of thought and his ideals of good government Smith also was applauded The convention voted 55-31 Mon day to keep the minimum voting age at 21 and against letting 18 19 and 20-year-olds vote The aOproved minority plan also called for abolition of the poll tax as a voting requirement and a xte nded voting privileges to women The latter amounted to a mere formality

stated in relation to these indictments that the United States attorney at Nashville is evidently' trying to make a name for himself Now I don't know whether he is getting his informatiomdrom the Department of Justice or not but if his thinking and opinion concerning tax cases is as reckless and wilfully false as his statement concerning me he is a damned poor representative of the Bureau of

Korea was court martialed last February at Fort Meade on charges he failed to submit his book "Korean 'rates" to the Army for clearance before publication He was also found guilty of disobeying a superior's order to withdraw the manuscript from the publisher The court martial ordered Voorbees a reservist to be dismissed from the service and forfeit all pay and allowances Voorhees' appeal is based on a claim that the Army regulation involved is an unconstitutional abridgement of freedom of speech He also has argued that "Korean Tales" caused his trouble because It contained material critical of several generals including Gen Douglas MacArthur Details for a plan to give the Governor Item veto powers were worked out Monday The committee plan provides: 1 On bills passed more than five days before legislative adjournment the Governor may exercise his veto power only if he returns the bill to the legislature not more than three days before adjournment or not more than five days after he receives the bill 2 On bills passed during the last five days of the session the item veto to be lawful must be exercised within 24 hours and the bill returned 3 If the legislature passes a bill then adjourns without allowing the Governor 24 hours in which to exercise the veto the Governor shall have 24 hours in which to Roll Call Vote Here is the roll call vote by which the convention opposed lowering the voting age from 21 to 18: Against lowering tile age (515): The letter also said: "In an effort to keep the department out of an embarrassing position and in order to save Congressman Sutton from embarrassment in his forthcoming race for Congress I called him on the night of March 15 and advised him that the department had instructed me to have the marshal withhold the warrant of arrest against Mr Massey at which time I also told him that this action was wrong that it was not only wrong but that it was going to become a matter of public knowledge in the State of Tenenssee and that he would suffer thereby Congressman Sutton advised me that he already knew about the telegram concerning the instruction above-mentioned from having talked to Mr John Hooker and to you He further advised me that this action would not become known because you and Mr Hooker were going to ask the attorney general of the United States to quash or otherwise dismiss the indictments

lot of rain and this is really the first soaking the soil has had in some time" Farris said there is yet little reason for alarm on the part of corn and tobacco producers There is still ample time to

the department has for a disposition of these indictments1 although there is a possibility that I could get this information from counsel for the defense Congressman Sutton or Mr Elrod They may be dismissed as Congressman Sutton advised me but this is to notify you the department or any one else concerned that I have -no 1 intention of making such a motion myself so if such is contemplated' for the future I would suggest that you send some other representative to so move the court "Parts or all of this letter may seem impertinent to you but I don't see any reason why Massey under the facts and circumstances should receive any more preferential treatment than is accorded the great number of bootleggers who are indicted in this court every time the grand jury meets These cases too are tale- cases and it Is "simply my opinion that one set' of laws should apply to all de-I fendants and all citizens and that no man should receive preferential treatment at the hands of the Government over another "Furthermore when I stated to you that I had neither knowiettge or Information concerning the grand jury's actions prior to these indictments it was a fact and I don't like the idea of
