FREE NEGRO Of
SONS DEATH

STAUNTON, Va, April 10.-Jesse
Williams, negro of this vicinity,
who had been in the local jail for
over a month on suspicion Of hav.
ing poisoned his son.. Warwick,
has been liberated.
The negro's son, IL years of age,
was taken sick February 18. He
was brought to the Kings Daugh-.
ters' Hospital, this city, February
25 Two days later he died, and
at the coroner's inquest. an autopsy
was held showing evidence Of death
from poisoning, according to the
coroner, DR.. j B. Catlett. Shortly
afterward several other of VIII
lianl's children became Ill.
After a conference with Common
wealth's Attorney H. H. Kerr the
coroner sent the viscera OF the
dead youth to the State Depart
lnent OF Public Health for examina-
tion. Williams was arrested on
suspicion.
Shortly after the viscera were
sent to Richmond a telegram, later
confirmed by letter, was received
from the health department. stating
that the State had no equipment
for the examination of autopsy
material. It was advised that the
matter be taken up with private
analytical chemist.
Local authorities wired the health
department to turn the material
over to a Richmond chemist, for
whose services the state would al.
low a fee of SIS. 1t was revealed
that no reliable chemist could be
secured who would do the work
for this sum.
The Commonwealth's attorney
took the matter before the Au.
gusta county board of supervisors,
who agreed to pay half the ex.
pense of having the analysis made,
provided Gov. H. #. Byrd would
pay the other half from State
funds, or from the governors con.
tingent fund The decision Of the
supervisors was communicated to
the governor.
AS no word had been received
frim the governor, the negro was
liberated.
The coroner and DIR. W. S. Whit
more, local physician, who assisted
at the autopsy. characterized it as
"crirne" that the State had no
department of toxicology.

MIL WAUKEEANS.
BACK SLASH
IN TAX

MILWAUKEE, wis, April 10
(U.sl.--"we're for it!V
This is the cry Of response leading
Milwaukeeans. whose capital is brain
or Drawn, have given the campaign
Of Hearst's Wisconsin News League
for the downward revision of Fed
eral taxes on earned incomes. This
is the campaign all Hearst news
papers are condus ting.
And these folk represent a cross
section of the Milwaukeeans who
work for living. They include law
yers, doctors. ministers, engineers,
architects. skilled craftsmen. actors,
actresses, laborers, And leaders In
the civic, social and political life of
Milwaukee have heartily indorsed
this movement.
IndOrsed by Council
These people not only individually
indorse the campaign for a Federal
tax slash, but " group form are ex-
pressing their favor Of this drive.
Milwaukee's common council, the
city's legislative body, was one OF
the first groups to adopt resolu-
tfon indorsing the Wisconsin News
League campaign for the tax cut.
The Milwaukee Eagles Club. COM
prising $4,000 members, quickly
Joined the ranks Of the thousands
seeking a fair deal.
At the same. time the Milwa ukee
Moose Lodges executive committee
approved resolution favoring the
movement. It reflects the attitude
of 5000 Milwaukee Moose.
Various professional groups, trade
advancement organizations and civic
bodies have taken the same action.
Favored by Governor
Gov. Walter ]. Kohler is a strong
proponent of income tax reduction.
Indicative OF his attitude is his
proposed amendment of Wisconsin's $
State tax law,
A number of city officials here
have gone even farther. They
personally have indorsed the cam
paign, In this group are John M.
Niven, city attorney; Louis M.
Kotecki, city comptroller: Dr.. John
P. Koehler, health commissioner.
and Aid. Stormy Thompson.
The heads of veterans organiza-
tions are particularly interested in
the campaign. It is their expressed
contention the war Is over, the
nation prosperous and the essentially
wartime tax on earned incomes may
now be modified.

OFFICIALS
FAVOR DRUG
BUREAU
BY KENNETH CLARK

The proposal to reorganize and
consolidate Federal narcotic en-.
forcement under an independent
bureau received strong indorsement
in official washington yesterday.
Capital leaders described the pres
ent method of divided authority as
archaic and Intellectual.
Inquiry Is Planned
At the White House 1t was de-
clared that President Hoover's law
enforcement commission would In.
vestigate the plan thoroughly with
a view to strengthening enforce.
ment Of the drug laws
Members of the Senate and
House were particularly hostile to
the present procedure whereby the
Government fixes the amount of
raw products which may he I'M
ported annually to be manufactured
into drugs for medical and sci.
entific purposes. This authority Is
lodged IN control board composed
OF the Secretaries OF State. Treas.
ury and Commerce.
The board started to function
IN 1928. Its sole purpose was to
restrict the importation OF opium
to the minimum medical needs
Of the country.
Imports Increased
Although outstanding physicians
have declared that the use of drugs
is being discouraged, the board gen.
orally has increased the legal opium
imports each year. For instance, the
imports in 1924 totaled approximately
SO tons. In 1928, the total almost
doubled, reaching 20 tons. This Is
potential output Of roughly seven
tons of morphine.
Likewise, the per capita consump-
tion Of opium has scared, from 5.57
grains in 1924 to 9,67 in 1928. The
latter figure is three grains more
than the maximum set by the League
of Nations for the medicinal pur-
poses OF any country.
In determining the import allot-
11ents, the board is supposed to as
certain the exact medical needs of
America for drugs.
No Survey Made
However, no comprehensive sur
vey Of the requirements OF physi.I
clans and hospitals has been made
recently by the board. Instead. the
determination is reached largely, ac-
cording to the board, upon the basis
of manufacturers sales for the pre-
vious year.
At the last meeting of the board,
a representative Of drug manufac-
terers was present. No representa-
tees OF physicians or hospitals were
called in to ascertain whether the
legitimate drug supply could be cur.
tailed drastically.
