Jacobs Denies
Asking Report
FdvOring Estes
Mcclellan Cites
Direct Conflicts
In Testimony
BY CECIL HOLLAND

Emery E. Jacobs Swore today
he never ordered an Agricul-
ture Department official to go
to Texas and write a report
giving every justification" he
could find for Billie Sol Estes
to retain his cotton allotments.
The denial by Mr.. Jacobs,
who was forced to resign from
the department because of the
Estes affair, directly conflicted
with testimony already received
by the Senate subcommittee in
vestigating the Estes scandal.
Subcommittee Chairman Nc
Clellan pointed out that Thorn
as H. Miller, who was sent to
Texas by Mr.. Jacobs, had told
the committee under oath:
e. . I want you to send me
a report containing every justi-
fication you can find to permit
retention of these allotments."
81 Did Not Do II"
Mr.. Jacobs, before the Senate
Investigations Subcommittee for
the third day. replied: II say
l did not do it,"
There is a conflict here"
Senator Mcclellan replied. "One
statement is true and the other
is not"
The subcommittee chairman
also noted that Mr.. Miller testi-
fled that Mr.. Jacobs, in giving
him Instructions about the re-
port he was to make, left me
with the very definite impress
sion that Mr.. Murphy 1.-THE
Undersecretary Of Agriculture
concurred in that idea"
II did not intend to-" Mr..
Jacobs replied.
Reads Testimony
Senator Mcclellan, reading
from Mr.. Miller's testimony,
said Mr.. Miller also had testi-
fled that Mr.. Jacobs gave him
the impression that the Under
secretary would be "amenable,
agreeable, even DESTROYS" of OBJ
tanning information permitting
retention of the disputed cotton
allotments by Estes.
II did not" Mr.. Jacobs said,
explaining that he did not dis
cuss such matters with Mr..
Murphy.
He testified that the Under
secretary asked that three men
from the department 20 to
Texas and check on conten-
tons by Estes attorney, John
Dennison. that instructions
from the department holding
that transfers of cotton allot-
ments such as was done by
Estes were illegal had never
reached the county farm COM
mittee which approved them.
The Estes attorney argued
this at a meeting last January
6 in the Undersecretary's office.
After the meeting Mr.. Murphy
ordered that the cancellation of
the Estes allotments, agreed on
in the department only two
weeks before. be held up in
order to give Estes a chance to
prove the validity of the trans
fers.
Wanted Truth
Mr.. Jacobs testified that Mr..
Murphy said he did not want
IAN expedition" to tear down
what Mr.. Dennison had claimed,
but only wanted the facts. He
quoted the Undersecretary as
saying: Il want the truth"

$4,000 private wells in Mont
somery County are safe fol
drinking and bathing purposes.
Calculated Risks"
Earlier, when asked If failure
OF the county to make inspec.
lions of wells required by State
law could not mean that many
residents unknowingly were
drinking contaminated water
DR.. Peoples said:
There is a possibility, sure
That is one of the calculated
risks they run when they move
out here with septic tanks and
wells"
However. today, amid the
Juror which has developed as a
result Of revelations about sew
age and water problems in Po-
tomac, Md. DR.. Peoples said:
There is no emergency in
the county regarding pollution
OF wells. There has been no
outbreak Of disease in the
county which can be attributed
to drinking we'll water. While
it is true that many wells in
the county may have some con-
tamination, and this is true of
wells IN most areas around the
Nations Capital where septic
systems are used, there is no
danger OF wholesale disease
affecting children or adults"
Hepatitis Not Result
DR.. Peoples asserted that the
tenfold increas OF infectious
hepatitis in Montgomery during
the past three years cannot be
attributed to polluted water.
There was a Nationwide
epidemic of infectious hepatitis
last year Montgomery
County experienced its share OF
this increase as did the re-
mainder of the State. The pri-
mary spread of this disease is
not from waterborne infection
but from upper respiratory
tract spread"
The United States Public
Health Service yesterday stated
that contaminated water un-
questionably can cause infec-
tious hepatitis. In cases where
the disease has been traced to
water, the water usually has
come from private wells, il
added.
Amid other disclosures, The
Star yesterday reported that fol-
weeks after the county discov-
cred that some wells were badly
befouled with animal and hu.
man waste. it neglected to
warn homeowners that theil
water was unsafe.
Failure to Notify
In his statement today, DR.
Peoples said that "manpowel
shortages" had contributed tt
the failure to notify the home.
