Driver To Face Charges Here
John Alfred Lemons a 22 year old ambulance driver for Lugos Funeral Service Bluefield is ordered to appear in Municipal Court at 8 30 a m July 1 on charges of reckless driving and driving without an operating permit. The reckless driving arose from an ambulance approach to Bluefield Sanitarium about 10 p m Thursday with Patrolman Frank Farmer as the complaining officer. Lemons allegedly drove recklessly at the corner of Bland and Ramsey Street up Ramsey Street into the alley at the hospital emergency entrance while transporting a patient declared dead on arrival. The no driving permit charge stems from Lemons having only a North Carolina permit, which the officer said was invalid since Lemons has been in Bluefield over a year.

Senate OKs Repeal of 10 Percent Excise Tax on Cosmetics
The Senate voted 48 to 38 to repeal the 10 percent excise tax on cosmetics handbags and luggage and on lower priced furs and jewelry while preserving tax on costs over 100. The move, a setback for President Johnson, gains support from industry groups and women who argued cosmetics and handbags are basic items. The administration warned of a 455 million dollar revenue loss this year. The House may reject the Senate action triggering a conference to resolve differences.
