C., MONDAY AFTERNOON, APRIL 13, 1953 Stage Set For Fiscal Debate On Bond Issue RALEIGH (IP) The Stage was set today for fiscal de bate on the floor of the House tomorrow when law makers tackle Gov. William B. Umstead’s $85,000,000 bond issue _ proposal. The General Assembly may re ceive the appropriations bill later in the week. Six separate bills to put each of Umstead’s recommended bond issues for school construction, men tal hospitals and permanent state improvements and alternate plans, will be before the House tomorrow. They have been set as a special and continuing order of business To speed work on the bond pro posals House committees gave them a quick green light but re served the right to argue the various plans on the floor. Umstead has asked bonds total ing $50,000,000 for school construc tion, $22,000,000 for mental hospi tals and $13,000 for permanent im provements. Economy advocates propose to trim the mental hop., pltals’ bond issue to $7,000J300 and have the additional $15,000,000 ap propriated outright. A joint subcommittee which has been deliberating the main appro priations bill has recommended eliminating a proposed $17,000,000 cash reserve “cushion” fund, but voted increases of $7,315,778. KcgroHeM li Skolpin Slaying. John Early, 85-year-old Dunn Negro, is being held without pfivi lege of bond, in the shotgun steying of Rosa Mae Ryals at a house on Aycock Street in which both were living Saturday, it was reported today by Coroner Grover Hender- Son. Early claimed the woman was shot accidentally while he was cleaning a 16 guage, double barrel shotgun, but he was unable to ex plain how a gun he was cleaning happened to be loaded. The charge struck the woman in th- head, killing her almost instant ly. Other witnesses told the cor oner’s jury that the two had been quarreling previous to the slaying, over the woman’s attentions to an other man. After hearing testimony in the case the coroner’s Jury declared the deceased had come to her death as the result of shotgun wounds in the head, inflicted by John Early, and recommended that he be held for action by the Harnett County Grand Jury.
