Pallbearers were Paul Brent, Ray Reed, Frank Chapman, Jamies Curtis, Alvin McCarter and F. Lockard. BRIBE CONTINUED FROM FIRST PAGE the TNPA who has been pointed out as the only person who handled special fund. then committee investigation into alleged legislative payoffs began four weeks ago over charges that former Rep. James E.
Cox agreed to accept a $5,000 bribe to withdraw his bill. Dr. Howard Harmon, president of Texas naturopaths, testified he captured the hotel room agreement on a tape recording and took the evidence to House Speaker Waggoner Carr. Since then the committee has received additional authority to turn whatever way the testmony indicates-always on the lookout for legislative payoffs. Mrs.
Stewart testified that the TNPA board ruling to destroy all written records of the "TNPA special account" in an Austin bank was made in 1953. Money for the assocation's general expenses was deposited in a Dallas bank. She estimated that more than $20,000 passed through the fund in 1954 and 1955-much of it in checks made on only to "cash." "Entertainment and travel was the usual explanation," she said. said she thought was unusual that 14 checks totaling $3,200 were issued the day after House committee approved a naturopath bill in. 1955.
She said all were made out to cash. Asked if any of the checks went to public officials, Committee Chairman Wade Spilman said: "I am not at liberty to Mrs. Stewart said she did not know of any cash payments from the special fund to legislators for aiding naturopathic legislation "except maybe tabs for food or liquor or maybe a hotel room." Spears. said that the state association. raised more than $30,000 for a "public relations fund" but said that none of it went on legislative payoffs.
'Nothing On Shelr "There was nothing for us to buy," he said. "There was nothing for us on the shelf. We didn't have a chance to buy anything if we had wanted to." Shears said he knew that some of money was used by Brown in having attorneys prepare a bill for the 54th a Legislature. The measure would amend the Texas Naturopathic Act of 1949 to give the practitioners stronger legal port. He said he understood a former state representative, Ray Kirkpatrick, got a $1,000 fee "plus some expenses" for helping get the bill together.
The bill, sponsored by Hep: Henry Lehman of Giddings, was approved by the Public Health Committee early in the session, but was referred to the State Affairs Committee where it died. Spears' testimony also brought out that a bill (SB101) was introduced in the Senate to repeal the state statute licensing the practice of naturopathy in Texas. Sen. Doyle Willis of Fort Worth told reporters later that he was author of SB 101 in 1955 and of a similar bill in 1953. He said he introduced both at the request of some Tarrant County medical doctors who contended that ropaths' educational requirements did not meet those of the Medical Practices Act which governs medical doctors.
"I know any naturopaths in 1953, I didn't know any in 1955, and I don't know any now," said. The possible contempt action against Spears came when he refused to answer the question, "Where were you before going to Baltimore?" He said he was in Baltimore some time in the mid1930s but did not say when. He said he moved to Dallas from Miami, in about 1943-44. Before that he was in McAlester, and in Jacksonville, Fla. CONTINUED FROM FIRST PAGE had done legal work for ICT prior to the time he joined it in January, 1953, and thereafter as well.
He flatly denied he had ever been offered pay from the ICT for work in the legislature. Bergman said the only money he received from the ICT group was his part of the law firm's income, "for employment as a lawyer." Rep. Ed Sheridan of San Antonio was asked to explain note to Jack Cage and Co. for $4,729 which he executed Aug. 26, 1954, and which was cancelled last year without payment.
Sheridan testified he had been a local insurance agent in San Antonio for ICT from its inception in 1950 to 1954, and the note represented "bookkceping and commission differences." He said his own book did not reflect that he owed ICT that much money, adding that he thought they were "right at clear." Asked why he executed the note if his books were -clear, he plied that BenJack Cage, then president of ICT, "asked me to make it until he got his books corrected." The last witness was Don Kennard of Fort Worth, who was questioned about a $200 ICT expense. account item in July 1954, to "Don Kennard for public relations." Kennard explained that he had, in July, 1954, received a "legitimate campaign contribution" in the form of a personal check for $200 from Paul Sparks, a friend of 20 years. He said he did not know it was coming from the ICT account, and had duly reported it as a personal contribution from Sparks. READ THE Advertisem*nts THEY'RE NEWS CONTINUED FROM FIRST PAGE ment. There is no extinguisher that can be used on every type of fire.
Your local fire department Can advise you on. what types to use in various locations. An emergency water supply is also important. The best way to provide. it is by building a pond, within pumping distance of buildings.
It should be built to the specifications of the Soil Conservution Service. An offset sump may be needed for possible use of fire trucks. An alternative is to build an emergency cistern of at least 3,000 gallons capacity, centrally located near buildings. Bear in mind that all water supplies should be easily accessible by road.
