Buddhists consider Lord Buddha's footprint sacred. Argues With Judge Donald Dale Holt, 23, of West Grand, couldn't face the pressure of a jury today and asked that his appeal on a magistrate court sentence on a petty stealing conviction be dismissed.

It was, and Holt was remanded to jail to begin serving a 90-day jail sentence in connection with theft of cigarettes from Ramey's Market, 1802 South Glenstone, Jan. 8. Holt, who this morning argued the judge, yesterday branded his court-appointed attorney "inefficient," named himself as an authority on search and seizure, accused a police officer of perjury, and acted as his own attorney much to the disgust of his court also appointed attorney, who was stage." The occasion was another criminal case possession of apparatus for illegal use of narcotics. In that case, Holt is seeking to have a four year sentence set aside. Testimony was completed and Judge James 'Keet is expected to take up the case again Wednesday.

The case this morning revolved around the arrest Jan. 8 at Grant and Sunshine by Officer Howard Rifenburg of Holt, his wife, Janie Lou, 18, and Ronnie Lee Tannehill, 24, of 1224 West Scott. The three were subsequently charged with petty stealing. Tannehill pleaded guilty and was sentenced to 30 days. Holt's wife was found guilty and she was sentenced to 30 days.

Holt asked for a trial and was found guilty and sentenced to 90 days. Allied Stores Allis Chaimers American Airlines. American Motors American Standard American American Tobacco Anaconda Cop. Beth, Steel Borg Warner Burroughs Canadian Export Ches. Ohio Cities Service Comsat Con.

After the jury was selected, Scott Traylor, court-appointed attorney for Holt, presented a motion to, suppress evidence. The motion was heard outside the hearing of the jury.

At one point, Holt became dissatisfied with Traylor's questioning of witnesses and took over the questioning. At the end of the hearing, when Judge Powell overruled the motion, and said the trial would begin in five minutes. Holt stood up, said that the testimony, of Ronnie Tannehill was essential for his defense and that without it he could not go to trial. He was reminded that the case had been pending a long time and that it would Senate Okays KC Tax Bill Earnings Measure Hotly Criticized JEFFERSON CITY (AP) Charges of inefficient management by Kansas City administraors and a budget "that reeks of ineptness" were made by a Jackson County senator in 2. late night session Monday, Sen.

Jack E. Gant, D-Independence, lost, however, in his fight to defeat a bill to let Kansas City voters decide whether they want to increase from to 1 per cent their earnings tax. The bill, sponsored in the Senate Jasper M. Brancato, D. sent Kansas the City, was passed and governor on a 19-10 vote.

It survived what Brancato called several killing amendments. Despite denials by Gant and Sen. Donald M. Manford, D-Kansas City, to accusations they were trying to filibuster action on the House-passed bill, opponents kept debate strung out from 4 p.m. to nearly midnight.

The Senate recessed for dinner then took up a bill to change the method of paying costs of indigent mental patients, revising the name of the mental diseases division to the Division of Mental Health. Debate strung out on that measure, too, and it was laid over so the earnings tax dispute could continue. In his final arguments that he said would fall on deaf ears and be misconstrued Gant thumbed through a copy of the Kansas City operating budget. He leveled charges of inept budgeting, citing where clerk-stenographers, he said, made as much money as most lawyers would pay their secretaries. Manford, too, took up the argument and finally pleaded with his colleagues to defeat the measure because the city was only squandering the some $7 million it gets from its earnings tax now, he said.

Gant argued an increase in the earnings tax would be unfair to non-residents who work in the metropolitan area yet would not get a chance to vote on the increase. In committee action Monday, a constitutional amendment to let St. Louis and St. Louis and Jackson counties issue industrial development bonds was approved. It would let metropolitan, areas enjoy the same authority to issue revenue and general obligation bonds as most cities, subject to voter approval.

A measure to abolish the present geographical differential on salaries of employes in state hospitals and other merit system agencies was also approved. Five proposals for interim study committees were approved by the same committee. They went Codify school laws and investigate the Commission on Higher Education; consider problems affecting tourism and scenic rivers; extend a study of the judicial system another twol years; investigate the impact of the commercial code and study tax and other problems in connection with mobile homes and trailer parks. The chairman of the Senate Education Committee, meanwhile, urged the House to act on the Senate-passed bill to increase state aid to schools by $38 million the first year. It is designed to bring the state up to a 50-50 school aid level in four years.

It carries with it an increase in the cigarette tax from 4 to 9 cents a package to raise about $31 million. It was received by the House April 9 and referred to the House Education Committee May How Senators Voted On KC Tax Measure JEFFERSON CITY (AP) Here is the Senate roll call sending the Kansas City earnings tax bill to the governor: For Avery, Brancato, Curtis, Downs, Howard, Jones of St. Louis County, Jones of Kansas City, Joynt, McNeal, Owens, Patterson, Pentland, Ryan, Schechter, Somerville, Spradlin Stone, Vanlandingham, Webster.
