Showers are scheduled to end Wednesday morning over most of the New England area, although some rainfall may linger in the mid-atlantic states. It should be sightly cooler along the Atlantic Seaboard.

AP Virephoto Map Bryant A legislative study committee' Tuesday spelled out its program for coordinating all mental health functions in Alabama under one new department. In a preliminary report highly critical of the state Board of Health, the Senate-House committee said no "aggressive, effective and progressive" treatment program can be carried on in Alabama until centralized control is set up. The report recommended crea- tion of a new Department of Mental Health with supervision! over all existing state hospitals, the Mental Hygiene Division of the State Health Department, and the State Commission on Alcoholism, all now operating aepdimeiy. ine committee also advocated establishment of a state-operated nursing home to house patients now in state hospitals who can be cared for elsewhere. Urging an expansion of the mental health clinic program to treat patients on the local level "and prevent them from having to go to the state hospitals," the report said the State Board of Health has not provided the leadership necessary to move forward in this area." Construction By Military Bill Studied WARWTWlTfYtf am House Armed Services Commit- vt.v uvuiuis Aucaudy tM a bill to authorize appropriations of $1.8 billion in construction for the active and reserve military-services during the year beginning next July 1.

The bill, containing 1,390 separate items of construction at home and abroad, was submitted to Congress by the Defense Department on March 13.

Later, Wallace's office released a prepared digest of the bill which claimed that for years the governor has largely determined who got the condemnation business, not the attorney general. "If the present incumbent of the attorney general's ofice follows the procedure, practices and customs established by his predecessors it will not become necessary for any counsel to be em ployed under the statute being amended for this purpose," the digest said. The present law specifies that attorneys in land condemnation cases are appointed by the attorney general, subject to approval by the governor.

Despite the raging controversy, passage of the bill in the House came relatively easy. Rep. Alton Turner of Crenshaw, sponsor of the measure, insisted there was nothing in the bill "to cause a conflict. "This doesn't change the stat ute relating to the powers of the attorney general one iota. he said.

Rep. Bill McDermott of Mobile, while expressing his confidence in Wallace, said he felt there might be "more in this bill than appears on the surface." Rep. Walter Perry of Jefferson, who thus far has usually been found in the corner opposite the administration, suggested that the bill might allow the governor to use the entire $100 million in road bonds to hire lawyers. And Rep. Paul Meeks of Jefferson tried to amend the bill to make its provisions expire in January 1967.

He was turned down by the House, 68-27. TWO-THIRD NECESSARY Since the bill was not included in the special session call, a two-thirds majority of those voting must approve it in the Senate. A lively fight is anticipated there. Almost overlooked in the Wal lace-Flowers hassle was the fact that two more tax bills for schools were introduced Tuesday. Rep.

Gardner Bassett of Pike proposed a 1 per cent increase in the state sales and use taxes; and Rep. Richard Avery of' Hale offered a bill imposing a 3 per cent tax on advertising. The House unanimously ap proved two bills which would give school teachers the right to accumulate up to 45 days of sick leave. Both chambers recessed until 10 a.m. Friday, with committee meetings scheduled during interim.

Officials Deny Hungary Talks On Miiulszenty WASHINGTON offi cials firmly denied reports Tues day that diplomatic talks are taking place between Washington and the Hungarian Communist regime concerning the fate of Jozsef Cardinal Mindszenty. Reports recently from Rome and other European capitals have indicated some form of freedom is being arranged for the Roman Catholic prelate, who for six years has been a refugee in the U.S. Legation at Budapest. Such a deal would be between the Vatican and the government of Janos Kadar, the Hungarian premier. Secret contacts between Budapest and the Holy Sea re portedly were made last fall when the ecumenical council met in Rome.

There were news dispatches from Budapest that U.S. officials had entered the negotiations American officials here denied this and also disputed a dispatch which said the U.S. Legation in the Hungarian capital had received orders to arrange a meeting between Mindszenty and Franz Cardinal of Vienna should Cardinal Koenig go to Budapest. tery, Martin Funeral Home of Clanton directing.

Boy (Continued From Page 1) have been out there without the searchers or dogs finding him," Mrs. Ricks said. "He must have been somewhere else." Jodie himself is currently un able to offer a logical explana tion for his absence. With the exception of lucid remarks re garding the older boy and dbg, his comments are vauge and dis connected. Jodie, still confused by the sequence of events, attempted to answer questions while eating his second big meal of the day at Maxwell hospital.

He said the older boy, described as tall and wearing a green shirt and green pants, walked up to him beside his home and asked him to follow him. Why did he accompany the stranger? "He told me to," Jodie said. The youth said he and his companion "walked down the road" until they came to the grove of trees. There they spent a sleepless night, apparently doing nothing in particular. Sometime during the interval the mysterious black and white dog joined the two, he said.

Jodie doesn't remember when. Several times during the questioning the youth commented that the "police were looking for me." He declined to say how he: obtained this information. I Jodie said the stranger took him to a playground beside the Maxwell Heights area Tuesday morning, then walked away. "Who was he, Jodie?" "I don't know," he replied. Jodie said he was neither afraid of the stranger nor the darkness during his all-night sojourn.

"The dog was with me," he said seriously. Aid (Continued From Page 1) that Kennedy, faced with the Clay committee recommendations, intended to cut his budget request by $200 million. Bell, in his talk, outlined aid's new look in foreign aid. He said the program would have three main features: 1. There would be an end in sight to assistance programs in each country.

He said three countriesGreece, Israel and Nation alist China soon will be on top of their economic problems and no; longer will need U.S. assistance. He named three others Libya, Venezuela and Saudi Arabia which, because of their lucrative oil resources, will be able to help themselves develop without U.S. aid. 2.

Aid would recognize that the job must be done from the inside. "If the leaders are not pre pared to take the necessary measures now," Bell said, "out side help won't do any good." 3. The United States would en courage development by private investment, rather than by gov ernment. "We are trying to per suade countries to change their policies on how they treat private investment," Bell said. He noted that some countries already have large private investment pro grams.

Deer Tax Opposed By Board Official The president of the Mobile County school board, Charles E. McNeil, wired his objections toj Gov. George Wallace Tuesday to a proposed 2-cent per bottle oeer tax for educational purposes. McNeil's telegram said he is "opposed to an increase in fie beer tax to finance junior col leges and trade schools until our present public school system is in sound financial order. Copies of the telegram were sent to Rep.

Rankin Fite, cn.nr-man of the House Ways and Means Committee, and to Rep. Mylan Engel, chairman the Mobile County legislative deleg3-tio Bryant's attorneys, William S. Pritchard Sr. and Winston B. Mc-Call.

"The administering authorites (Continued From Page 1) reported under oath that Coach Bryant's answers to all questions were truthful and that no decep tion was indicated," they said. The attorneys said the test was given by a former FBI agent and a graduate and former lecturer at Keeler Polygraph Institute. The action by Bryant's attor neys apparently meant Cook would not go to Alabama as planned. Cook had said his trip to interview Bryant and Dr. Frank A.

Rose, University of Alabama president, hinged on what resulted from his request. Cook was criticized by Flowers for not notifying the Alabama at torney general of plans to go into that state. 'I don't believe our officials have any objection to talking with Atty. Gen. Flowers said.

But I deeply resent the fact that this announcement was made through the press without any previous notification to my office or the office of the governor. At Montgomery a 7-member legislative committee was organ ized to look into the Post charges for Alabama. Member Larry Dumas of Jefferson County said he hoped the investigation would get at the bedrock of the facts. Cook said tentative plans were for completion of the Georgia investigation in time for a full report next Monday to Georgia Gov. Carl E.

Sanders who ordered the probe. In his telegrams to Bryant and Butts, Cook asked for both to take polygraph tests by "an experienced and approved polygraph examiner" and to submit pre pared statements if they wished. Two more federal investigators joined Donald O'Donnell, chief counsel for the U.S. Senate permanent committee on investi gationswhich is looking into gambling in sports. Donnell re fused to say whether he had found evidence of gambling in connection with the Post article.

One of the additions to O'Don- nell's staff, he said, was from the general accounting office Wash ington, D.C. State investigators copied a batch of long-distance toll tickets delivered under subpoena. They indicated no witnesses wen Paper Strike Within One Word Or Settlement NEW YORK (AP)-A 109-day blackout of eight major New York newspapers was within one little word of settlement Tuesday. All that was required to get the papers back on the streets was for 320 striking AFL "IO photo-engravers to say yes to a peace formula laid down by Mayor Robert F. Wagntr.

Publishers already had accept ed the mayor's terms, with a warning that "we cannot and not enlarge upon the mayor's proposal, and all publishers agree there is no purpose to be served by further negotiations." Leaders of New York Photoen- gravers Local 1 still were to decide whether to accept the formula and recommend it for membership ratification. Obviously hopeful, Wagner al ready had closed his Commodore Hotel headquarters where for several weeks he has been medi ating and umpiring a series of! contract disputes within the news paper industry. The mayor proposed to the en gravers essentially the same terms accepted by the AFL- CIO International Typographical Union and used as a basis for settlement with five other news paper craft unions. The formula would give the engravers a $12.63 a week increase contract package over two years, with an inrrease of $6.50 in wages and fringe benefits the; first year and $6.13 the second Wagner also proposed to re-; solve a deadlock over the photo-, engravers work week by reducing! it in the second year of the contract from 36'i to 35 hours the same terms worked out with the. printers.

In Cleveland, Ohio, the head of a striking printers local foresaw the possibility that the two major newspaper in that city could re-, sume publication Monday after a record 117-day blackout. The dailies are the Plain Dealer and the Press and News.

He testified before a House appropriations agriculture subcommittee at a closed-door session. Sugg told a reporter the three laboratories would cost less than one proposed for Dawson, Ga. He said a $1.6 million cost proposed for the Georgia laboratory could be reduced to $1,440,000 for the three.

W. I. (Red) Bowman, promi-j nent Montgomery County businessman, has been named Montgomery County chairman of the Alabama 4-H Club Foundation fund drive. In accepting the chairmanship of the drive, Bowman expre-isd confidence that Montgomery County would "do more than its share" in helping to the state's $3 million fund goal. Bowman explained that drive will make possible a great expansion in 4-H work.

Specifically, the money will be used for training facilities, educational materials, scholarships and expansion of' 4-H work in more urban areas. DEVELOP CITIZENSHIP He said that the drive for 4-H funds was extremelj worthwhile in developing citizenship and leadership among the state's youth. Montgomery County has 937 4-H members in 33 clubs. Ala bama has 132,000 4-H Club mem bers, half of whom are in clubs in urban areas. Bowman is owner and operator of the Capital Stock Yards and yards in Demopolis, Linden, Camden and Hurtsboro.

He has been an exponant of quality livestock in Alabama for more than a quarter of a century. A board member and past president of the Alabama Livestock Market ing Association, Bowman is now vice president and director of the national Livestock Auction Markets Association. "My co-chairman and I believe that the expansion of 4-H activ-ties offers a wonderful opportunity to train our urban and rural boys and girls, primarily because 4-H is based on work p-oj-ects. Last year, for example, Montgomery County 4-H ers car ried out 1,505 projects, sn average of almost 2 per member. "These members learned to as- 1.
