Truman Stirs Editors With Seizure Claim (Continued from Page One) American Society of Newspaper Editors (ASNE), many of whom were at the news conference ranged from cries ol dictatorship to belief the answer was merely unfortunate. Highlights of Truman's answers to other questions: 1. "1 have tried my best to give the nation everything I had in me. There are a great many people that, probably a million people, who could have done the job better than I did it but I had the job and I had to do it and I always quote an epitaph on a tombstone in a cemetery in Tombstone, Ariz.: "Here lies Jack Williams. He done his damnedest," "I think that is the greatest epitaph a man can have." (Tne President departed from custom by permitting theabove to be quoted directly). 2. If the Russians really want peace, they would sign an Austrian peace treaty and agree to the U.S. plan for limitation of armaments. 3. The great mid-west floods could have been prevented if the Pick-Sloan flood control plan for the area had been put into effect. Truman said governors of the flooded states had been dragging their feet for 25 years. 4.

"Tell the truth, we have radios in here." "The parole board isn't fair. We want a change." A prison source said the em battled convicts listened to news broadcasts of the riots on tiny crystal set radios they fashioned out of magnetaed steel and tin to bacco cans.
