Judge, agency stall adoptions BytheAP McKean County families trying to adopt black or Asian born children say their efforts have been thwarted by the county adoption and a judge who reportedly called black children “pickaninnies.” Judge Willian F. Potter has final say on all adoptions in the predominantly white, rural county in northwestern $4O billion error typo erases taxes WASHINGTON (UPI) Rep. Sam Gibbons, D-Fla., says Congress just might have repealed the corporate income tax last year through a typographical error. That would be a $4O billion error the amount the in come tax on corporations is expected to raise for the government this year. Gibbons said the Revenue Adjustment Act of 1975 mistakenly changed section "11a” of the Internal Revenue Residence Hall Week 76 “Penn State’s Greatest Week of Entertainment” Saturday Sweet Pain Bob Doyle & Buffalo Chipkickers Stigwood James Loose As A Goose Canned soda, hot dogs, popcorn & potato chips will be sold on the grounds during the concert Pennsylvania. He was quoted in the Bradford Era in March assaying: “I’m not against blacks, but I won’t approve the adoption of bi-racial children in McKean County. It’s great when they’re little pickaninnies; they’re very cute and everybody’s a do gooder. But what about when they’re older? I’m thinking Code at one point when it should have changed section "lib”. By doing so it deleted the paragraph imposing the' corporate income tax. Gibbons, a member of the tax-writing House Ways and Means Committee, said he would introduce a joint resolution correcting the mistake. He revealed the error in a brief insertion in the “extensions of remarks” section of the Congressional Record.

But critics say such cases never reach the bench because the adoption agency tells parents they won’t be approved. Potter has not publicly disputed the statements at tributed to him in the newspaper story, but Richard McDevitt, the review board’s director, said the judge assured him that he would not deny bi-racial adoptions. “He conceded perfectly frankly that he was con cerned about them (bi-racial adoptions) and pointed out to adopting parents that he saw difficulties, particularly as the children grew older.” Shapp pushes big deal for small cars HARRISBURG (AP) Gov.
