The prominent east Tennes see bootlegger delivered his opinion and settled back in the restaurant booth to enjoy his steak. We'll call him Clem Smith. He's the proud, lonely mountaineer-type. He makes a com fortable living buying bonded whisky in legally-wet Nash ville, hauling it miles in "vari ous devices" and selling it by the truckload to lubricate the citizens of bone-dry Knox ville. Clem maintains the munici pal government of Knoxville derives a greater income from bootleg liquor than it would from tax money on legal li quor, explaining:. "Tbey catch you hauling and selling liquor. They take it and fine you. Then they sell it back to the liquor dealers I bought it from .in Nashville. See what I mean?" Lonely Job Bootlegging is a lonely job for Clem, even more so since his wife died several years ago. Being a bootlegger's friend is not socially or poli tically smart in Bible-conscious Knoxville. Its citizens, who readily admit that "boot leggers and Baptists" keep the town dry, may be a bootleg ger s private customers, but they're not his public acquain tances. Clem leaned across the table and confided sadly, "Sometimes I think people tell their kids that if they aren't good, old Clem Smith will get them. You know, like the bogeyman." Clem, who is in his early, 40's says his life has been a "full" one. His earliest mem ory is of lying on the dusty floorboards of a car as his bootlegger-father smashed through a roadblock. He drove his first load of. bootleg liquor into Knoxville at the age of seven after his father got drunk and passed out. "I hit a T-model Ford," he said nostalgically. "The farm er jumped, out and hollars 'whoa-stop!' I got scared and stopped. My daddy woke up and I told him what happened. 'Keep a-goin'," he says and passes out again." Greeted by' Police Clem was still chuckling as we left the restaurant and headed for his car. Two rookie patrolmen passed. "Evening, Mr. Smith," they said respectfully. A sergeant sitting in a squad car roared. "Clem, you old so-and-so, where the devil you been? I ain't seen you f er Mark IV Space Suit In Debut for Press Phila lelphia - (Science' Service) - A fashion show to introduce the Mark IV space suit was held here recently for the press. The full-pressure suit wai developed by the B. F. Good rich Company and the U.S. Navy. It may be the suit chosen for the first manned space flight. A model . dressed in the suit jumped into a pool of water where he demonstrated the ability to swim, mani pulate and enter a life raft. Another subject was exposed to extreme temperatures.1 The suit proved to be safe for high acceleration force escape pro cedures, or ejections. Rapid Decompresison Then a model in a suit suc cessfully withstood a test of rapid decompression. The suit can buffer temperatures from plus 220 degrees Fahrenheit to minus 70 degrees Fahren heit, and swift altitude changes that shoot from 18, 000 feet to 75,000 feet in less than half a second. The Mark IV allowj a high flyer to surround himself with an earth-like environ ment. This environment, con- William Moffat Atiends Seminar William Moffat, assistant manager of Mann's depart ment store, left Saturday for New York City to attend a management seminar conduct ed jointly by New York uni versity School of Retailing and the National Retail Mer chants' association. The seminar brings togeth er business men and univer sity professors of retailing to discuss economic trends and important management prob lems. The seminar . will be held June 9-12. Moffat 'Will also attend the annual meeting of the Smaller Stores division of NRMA in New York City today. PRAYER CRUSADE Geneva - (UPD - Catholics, Protestants, Jews, Moslems and Buddhists will pray dur ing the week end of June 26 28 for a solution to the prob lems of the world's 45,000,000 refugees, it-"wag announced yesterday. tained within the - tightly sealed suit, can comfortably protect a human on his way to outer space. In fact, if a man in a Mark IV suit should land on the moon, the suit is flexible enough to allow him and his space craft buddies to play a game of baseball. On the moon, gravity is so weak that the ball for an earthly Mickey Mantle home run would travel about one-half mile. Upper Across Chest The suit weighs 20 pounds. It consists of a torso, helmet, gloves and boots. A pressure sealing zipper slants across the chest section. The space man's ' shoulders, legs and arms can move easily due to a knit stretch fabric within the inner layer of the suit. The plastic helmet has a large window in front. A val e permits exhaled air to pass from the respiratory sec tion to the torso. There are earphones inside the head piece. , J. W. Keener, president of B. F. Goodrich Company; pointed out a future po tential for the suit when he said that many of our launch ing failures would have been successful had a pilot been aboard to control the vehicle when it strayed off course. a couple weeks." Clem said he'd been in Flor ida and they talked a while. We drove until we came to Clem's "place" on the edge of town. It was an old garage with a few rooms tacked onto the back. ... The inside was bare except for a stove and a telephone. A sign on the wall asked the public for contributions "to build a home f or our beloved, retired pastor." Below the sign was a mason jar contain ing 13 cents and a bottle cap. "This is all there is to 'it," said Clem. "I used to keep some in here." . He tugged at a bookshelf. A wall panel swung away re vealing an empty storage space. There was a fist-sized hole in the panel. An old ' man shuffled around, bib-overalls bulging with bottles. Periodically, a customer would drive upvto the place and the old man would wait on him. We stood in front of the stove and Clem talked. He mentioned a minister he re gards highly who "come to pray with me when my wife died." "The others," he said, "just come around when they want to stamp out this or that." Donations Sought Clem complained of the town's money-hungry chari ties that "are always asking the bootleggers for donations." "People think bootleggers get rich," he said, "but I never seen one retire." He explained he keeps a careful account of his busi ness delings to avoid Federal income tax evasion charges. Clem said he and "an aw ful boy" from the Internal Revenue Service went over the account last year. Clem ended up "kind of paying a percentage." The "percentage" came to $37,000. "I think enough of my government to want to keep her agoin'," Clem ex plained. , He discussed disposing of evidence during a raid by breaking the bottles. "But," he said gloomily, "they'll lay a rag on the floor and soak up what spilled. There's many a man convicted on rag squeezings." Clem shook his head sadly. "Bootlegging's a hard way to make a living," he said. "Don't know why I stay in it." I asked him what he'd do if Knoxville were to make liq uor legal. He stared at me a moment then replied confidently: "It'll still be dry on Sundays." Garden Sawdust Mctiinfy Fuel Co. Ph.
