No Dishonesty In Sales At Prison, Kerr States
Former Governor Robert S. Kerr told Rex Hudson of the Duncan Daily Banner there was nothing dishonest in the prison surplus property sales during his administration. He said profits were used to operate the penitentiary without state funds, saving the state about $2,000,000, and he called charges of illegality unfounded. Kerr dodged commenting on his senate campaign speech but suggested the issue could become political. Rep. Ross Rizley, who led the congressional subcommittee report, is seen as the likely Republican nominee winner.
