DOCTOR BACKS 7, b: victim in ABUSE CHARGE Report Shows 111 Man Was Forced to Work in Penal Farm Quarry. (Continued From Page Onei addition to b’ing a patient there in March of 1933. was In 1928, Jewish hospital—six months TBC (meaning chronic tuberculosis*. Then went to Denver —eleven months— TBC." The record shows that a phrenicolomy was performed on Shipper in the St. Louis hospital prior to his a Hefted abuse at Ihe Indiana stale farm. An operation of this type is performed to rest weakened lungs and enable them to breathe easily and without strain. It consists of cutting a nerve that enters the chest wall. The nerve was cut on Shipper's left side to relieve the strain of breathing in pure air. But at the Indiana state farm they put Shipper to work at hard labor in the quarry, breathing rock dust, wheeling a barrow up a steep incline, w'hen he protested that he had had an operation on his lung. Sent Back to Quarry Shipper did tell them that he had had his lung removed. He showed them the scar of the phrenicolomy. The farm's doctor, according to affidavits to The Times, merely listened to the weakened lung, tested it outwardly, and, without ordering an X-ray examination, sent Shipper back into the wind gusts of rockdust, back to the wheelbarrow'. They didn't question that Shipper might ha*e a lack of medical knowledge and not know that a phrenicotomy was not the taking out of his diseased organ, but an operation to give that lung a chance to breathe more freely. Dr. ,1. F. Gillespie, the farm's physician, says in a statement,” "He was supposed to have a pain in his chest and showed me a long scar on the upper left chest, saving that he had had a lung removed. On examination I found the lung still intact and functioning well. There w'as no evidence of tuberculosis.’’ Defends Farm Officials In defense of the hospital and the farm officials. Dr. Gillespie savs: "1 have served as physician at this institution for seven years and I truthfully can say that I never have witnessed a case of mistreatment of a prisoner by an officer or guard during this time. All prisoners coming to the hospital for treatment or examination are given every possible measure of care and attention at our disposal, with due regard to those who report with deliberate intentions of shirking or avoiding work,” Dr. Gillespie's report shows no X-ray ot the lung and no evidence that he wrote to hospitals where Shipper had been a patient, for his record. The Indianapolis Times, in probing Shippers hospital record, does find that he has not always been co-operative with physicians who sought to treat him, but it did not find one iota of evidence to disprove his assertion that he suffered from the disease that is feared by mankind and for which no certain cure ever has been found. Light Work Needed But The Times presented the hypothetical case of Shipper to a physician of Indiana, well known for his treatment of tubercular patients, who declares, “the man should not have been put at hard labor. He should have been given light work. A man in his condition should not be a baggageman or furniture mover in civilian life.” Governor Paul V. HcNwtt received a letter from Shipper, complaining of the treatment accorded him during his stay in the state farm. The Governor received statements from Guard Finn and Arment, admitting they struck Shipper. It was admitted that he served time in the “hole” on bread and water. But no check of Shipper’s actual condition to ascertain the truth of his tubercular history was made by the state farm. The Times made that check. Beatings Are Charged In Shipper’s affidavit of incidents that occurred during his stay he .says. "I saw a Negro get beat up while I was in the hole by the captain ... I have seen guards crack guys with clubs in the quarry. If they caught you with a cigaret in your mouth theyde beat you. I saw' one guard hit one fellow for smoking,” his affidavit charges. Cigaret smoking is forbidden at the farm, due to fire hazards. Pipe smoking is permitted. Other inmates tell of splitting matches to give a buddv a light for his pipeload of tobacco. "I have given the runners (trusties i sacks of tobacco to smuggle cigaret papers to me,” declares Shipper's statement. Must Sign Release He was told, upon his dismissal from the farm, that he must sign his release before he could obtain a bus ticket to the place of his arrCvSt. Vincennes. One of the signatures, demanded of an inmate before his release is the freeing of the farm front responsibility for all actions that occurred during the prisoner's incarceration. ex-inmates tell The Times. Former inmates declare, as Shipper did, that they are snown the line to sign and not shown the subject matter. The subject matter, they declare, absolves the farm from anything that occurred and declares hat they have received good treatment during their time of servitude But farm officials assert the three signatures cover receipt for clothing and personal effects, funds of any kind on deposit, and receipt for transportation to point of arrest. It is the declaration of affidavits of former inmates that, unless those receipts are signed, “good time will be taken from you.” Shipper charges in his affidavit. “I had 60 cents in money coming to me that I brought to the farm and they wouldn't let me have it. They said I would have to take it out in trade ... so I took six packages of . . . tobacco.” Farm records show that Shipper received $3 during his stay at tiie farm and that it was spent for tobacco.

the farm the treatment of prisoners is outlined thus: ‘lnmates are to be treated as men, with proper regard accorded to the fact that they are being confined in the institution for some violation of the law and under sentence and punishment for such offense. “You are not to strike or abuse an inmate except in self-defense. Vile or abusive language, cursing, or swearing, either on (he part of the inmates or the officers, will not be tolerated , . says the farm's code of ethics. But Shipper, suffering from a physical ailment that could result in death, as well as other men—well men—were beaten, and cursed at the whim of guards and farm officials, affidavits charge. Even the whisper of escape brought chains, affidavits to The Times show. While the pleading of Daniel Roy Shipper of a true illness brought a caning, a blackjacking, and 140 hours in the farm's “hole'’ on bread and water, he swears.

SHOALS POWER MAY HELP BUILD NEW COVE DAM Engineering Experts to Survey for Probable Transmission Line. BY MARSHALL M’NEIL Times Special Writer WASHINGTON, July 19. The first official recognition of the wide- | spread demand here and in the ‘ Tennessee valley for construction of ' the transmission line from the i Muscle Shoals power plant to the projected dam at Cove creek, 250 miles away, w>as given today by Chairman Arthur Morgan of the Tennessee Valley Authority. He said that tw'o electrical and engineering and rate experts had been assigned to survey the project and report on its feasibility and relationship to the effectiveness of the tw’o plants. At the same time David E. Lilienthal, Tennessee valley board member, addressing the International Congress of Women at Chicago, i uttered a new' and broad creed to I cover the basin development, stress- i ing its pow'er development phase! particularly. Chairman Morgan said that Llew'- I ellyn Evans, formerly connected with the public power project at Tacoma, Wash., and now rate consultant for the valley authority, and Dr. W. N. Polakov, Russian-born electrical engineer, were making the study of the transmission line. A third man, w'hom Chairman Morgan is not ready to name, will assist them. Starting far back in the emigres- ■ sional fight over Muscle Shoals, 5 there has been a general under- j standing that the first major proj- j ect to be undertaken in connection 1 with the development would be the Muscle Shoals-to-Cove creek trans- I mission line, not only to furnish j power for use in building the latter I dam, but also to make cheap power available to cities and towns along its route. Army engineers have recommended the connection of the two plants. Senator Norris (Rep., Neb.), author of the T. V. A. bill, has insisted on this line from the outset. In a last minute effort to stave | off the building of this line by the government, a private pow'er company has erected a substation at the Cove creek dam site, w'here it now' is in position to sell energy to the government. FIGHT CONTEMPT CASE Attorney-General to Send Deputies to Aid Lake County Sheriff. Attorney-General Philip Lutz Jr. has announced that he will send deputies to Lake county Aug. 1, to aid in fighting the contempt case brought against Sheriff Neil Fray of Porter county. Sheriff Fry w'as held in contempt by Judge Virgil S. Reiter of Lake | superior court for arresting a truck driver for Abe Rosen, unlicensed wholesale beer dealer. Rosen is operating under an order ! of immunity from arrest issued by Judge Reiter.. Lutz said the case W'ill be tried under the 1931 contempt statute, which would disqualify Reiter from sitting and that the lower court order w'ill be attacked on jurisdictional grounds.
