PRINCIPALS IN ROBINSON - DOYLE BOUT EXONERATED CLEVELAND, July 1.—(#—A cor- oner's jury today cleared all prin- cipals involved in the June 24 title | match between welterweight cham- pion Ray (Sugar) Robinson and Jimmy Doyle of any responsibility for the challenger’s death. Ruling that Doyle’s death was “ac- cidental,” and that Robinson was ‘ “absolutely blameless,” Coroner S. |R. Gerber recommended these changes in Cleveland and Ohio box- ing regulations: Fighters who have suffered previ- ous head injury should be barred Jr., stated that Eugene LaMoore j was the alleged partner of Austin Nelson in the murder and robbery of Juneau groceryman Jim Ellen, Dec. 22, 1946. Gilmore said, in requesting the reprieve, that Nelson made a con- fession, over the weekend, implicat- | ng LaMoore in his crime. LaMoore s already in the Juneau Federal Jail awaiting a Grand Jury indict- ment for perjury leading from t; timony he gave during Nelson’ trial. Nelser.. who was scheduled to die on the gallows today, had steadily maintained his innocence in Ellen's murder until this new development arose last weekend. His confession, | according to an Associated Press dispatch from Ketchikan, also led authorities to the recovery of $1.- 100 which had been taken from; Ellen’s store where the murder and robbery occurred. Gilmore stated that Nelson is an indispensable witness in the case |from the ring; against La Moore.

Truman Criticizes Funds, . However, Provided for i Tax Collection WASHINGTON, July 1. — (®— President Truman today signed the $12,402,485,671 Treasury-Post Office appropriations bill but criticized what he termed the “gross inade- quacy” of funds provided for tax collection. “The administration of the tax- ing statutes should never be influ- enced by political considerations,” Mr. Truman said in a statement, adding: called upon to support their gov- ernment through the payment of taxes and are entitled to adequate administrative controls to insure that the dishonest do not shift their {share to the honest.” The total of the two departments is about $883,000,000 less than Mr. Truman asked for operations in the fiscal year beginning today.

Senator Taft of Ohio, Chairman of the Senate’s Republican Policy Committee commented that he weouldn't mind rurning such an in- quiry himself. But his Ohio colleague, Senator Bricker, called Mr. Truman's vro- posal “the cheapest kind of politi- cal demagoguery.” And Senator Sparkman said he was for an investigation but “instead of singling out the real all.” OfTicials of real estate organiza- | tions were indignant.

WATKINS WASHINGTON, July 1. — (®— Alaska Indians expect to ask the House Agriculture Committee to work out some plan to protect their interests if the Forest Service is authorized to sell stumpage rights to 5,000,000 acres of timber in South- east Alaska. A hearing which was to have been given them today was postponed until later in the week because Isaac C. Sutton, counsel for the Indian Rights Association, failed to show up. At Senate committee hearings two weeks ago counsel for the Indians | opposed the proposal of sale to paper and pulp mills to develop the industry in the Territory. He contended that the Indians {own ten per cent of the land and should be permitted to sell direct | !to the paper companies. | Forest Service officials testified | the timber will support five $30,000,- 000 paper mills and said two of them were about ready to conclude nego- tiations for timber. They contended the paper companies would drop ‘thelr plans if they have to negotiate with the Indians.
