Craig Staff Denies Fund Solicitations Deny Any Pressure' On State Employes INDIANAPOLIS UP — Governor Craig's staff today denied a state representative's charge that Indiana reformatory employes are being pressured to contribute to Craig's private campaign fun«h Rep. Merrett Monks (R-Win-Chester) sent Craig a letter saying personnel at the penal institutions werte being solicited for donations to the new Republican victory committee, a competitor to GOP state headquarter's fundraisers. Craig's executive secretary, Horace Coats, said there was "n| solicitation and no compulsion at the reformatory or anywhere else.’’ Coats said voluntary contributions certainly would be accepted, as they are from statehouse employes. He challenged Monks to give “Specific proof” of any compulsion. ' Monks said a "solicitor” ’he identified as a “certain state employe" suggested that reformatory employes donate one week s pay to the Craig fund. "This request has caused much concern among the employes," Monks wrote. “They are afraid of losing their jobs if they do not comply, and also, they are worried for a financial reason.” Frozen Foods School Is Held Thursday More than, 200 women yesterday learned to make "Meals in a Jiffy” at the frozen foods school.
