I am confident that Mr. Charles Crow was only following policy which has been observed in previous cases of this nature. "I agree with Gov.

Clement's order yesterday ended the possibility of a court suit on the question. Crow, in response to questions in the Stout case Tuesday, told the Press-Chronicle that board policy prevented him from releasing the names of those who asked sentence reduction for the former Johnson City bootlegger. Policy Cited "Our policy is that all files relating to pardon and parole cases are confidential," Crow said, "and until I'm told differently, I have to stick by it." The freedom of information or "right to know" bill, passed by the 1957 assembly, requires that all state, county and city records be open for public inspection except those required by law to be kept confidential. Cecil Sims, Nashville and author of the bill, said the law, covers all public board meetings anything that becomes a part of the board's official meeting minutes is open to public inspection.

Crow confirmed that the names of 14 persons became a part of the board meeting's minutes. Here is the text of the telegram from Gov. Clement: Clement's Statement feel much as there are in cases where 1 I clemency is order, but that more time should be served before granting clemency. The Stout case fell in this category. "This action is taken without inquiry as to whether it is required by law.

All I am concerned with is the fact I think it is required by duty to the public. "I feel sure the persons whose names are made public had no desire for secrecy. However, hope all citizens hereafter will be "The public has a right to know who has asked for the release of a prisoner from the penitentiary. "Tennessee in my opinion has the finest board of pardons and paroles, in its history. All these members are men of honor, integrity and ability.

"They adopted a policy a year or, so ago as a result, of the necessity of protecting informants from death or other reprisal and wholeheartedly agree with their determination to protect helpful and innocent citizens. "Unfortunately there was no clarification as to where the line would be drawn. While Mr. Crow was correct in declining to make decision for the board since he only one of three members, I am sure that he and the other two members will agree with me that the public has a right to know the names of those who have asked for a release of a prisoner. "I am therefore ordering that the names of all persons recommending the release a prisonbe made public.

"It should be public knowledge that it is my opinion that no person has moral right to recommend the release of prisoner unless that person is willing to stand up and be counted before the general public. "I feel sure the persons who made recommendations in this case will agree with me. "In my opinion this case has served a very useful purpose and want to express my gratitude to the Johnson City Press-Chronicle for the dignified manner in which they have handled it." Commenting more in detail Nashville, Clement said: When I must affix my to a commutation of sentence, feel the public has a right to expect me to know all the facts. "This is a very good time to let it be known that any citizen who requests the release of a prisoner cannot do so at my hands with any secrecy, In other words, I feel that if the recommendation is offered in good faith there is no reason to be secret about it. "I have policy of: "1.

Jones Waives Hearing From One) a at Blountville, but refused when the polygraph machine was brought here by the T.B.I. from Nashville.

"I have no comment," she said, adding: "I'm going to have enough sense this time to keep my mouth closed." She apparently referred to a statement made last Saturday in which she said "they" told her she was "clear as crystal" after taking the lie-detector test on Thursday of last week. In her statement she also declared, "No I can't believe he (Jones) done it." She said Jones was "close friend of the family" and that she wouldn't believe Jones committed the murder until he "tells them that he did it." Says Not Told Atty. Gen.

Hawkins said yesterday that "nobody that I know of" who was connected with the liedetector tests told Mrs. Jenkins the results of the test. Jones, wiry well-built man, who lost two of his fingers on his right hand in an accident during youth, had to push his way into the courtroom yesterday. Reporters and photographers flanked him and as soon as he sat down at the defense table the photographers opened fire, quitting only when he left the jail after making bond. During the brief hearing he was silent and unmoved as the still and newsreel cameramen moved in close to take his picture.

He told a newsman "I'm as innocent as the angels in heaven.

He said he had written a signed letter in longhand to Taylor declaring he was "out of place" in ordering the arrests at Clinton.
