Battalion photo by John Joyce United Press International MOUNDSVILLE, W.Va. — Fif teen inmates, including six con victed murderers, staged a mass prison break from the century-old West Virginia Penitentiary Wednes day night, but four were recaptured within hours. An off-duty state trooper, driving by the medium-security prison with his wife while the escape was in progress, was shot and killed. The 11 prisoners still at large Thursday were considered “armed and dangerous” and included ring leader Stephen Hart. Police in Ohio and Pennsylvania were enlisted in one of the largest manhunts ever organized in a West Virginia prison break. Roadblocks were set up along all major roadways leading out of the northern panhan dle town. State Trooper Philip Kesner, 23, and his wife, Connie, happened to drive by the fortress-like prison when the inmates, frantically look ing for a getaway car, shoved Sgt. Jerry Daff of the prison staff in front of the officer’s car. Kesner swerved to avoid an acci dent and went into a skid. He was jerked from the car. Shots were heard. Some inmates piled into his car and sped off, leaving Kesner on the pavement bleeding and his dazed but uninjured wife pleading for help. United Press International iVASHINGTON — In an effort to rm the nation’s welfare system, House voted to set a guaranteed limum annual income for needy ilies and to have the federal gov- ment pay a greater share of wel- costs. ’he legislation, which passed, 1-184, Wednesday night, also itens administration of welfare grams in an effort to reduce error fraud. be bill falls short of President er’s wishes, but is considered K most sweeping legislation that ■ild possibly get through Con- Iss. JHowever, the legislation now goes the Senate where Finance Com- ttee Chairman Russell Long, D- , will get first crack at it. The House, by a 205-200 vote, rrowly defeated a Republican plan allow states to set work require- :nts for welfare recipients and to up a pilot program under which ;ht states would determine how eral welfare money is spent. For the first time, the bill would set up a guaranteed annual income for needy families with children, at income would be 60 percent of poverty level as of Jan. 1, 1981, [creasing to 65 percent of the pov- ty level on Oct. 1, 1981. That iuld guarantee a $4,654 annual in line under current official poverty evels. This would result in increased be- hfitsforan estimated 800,000 reci- ients in 13 states, mainly in the outh — Kentucky, New Mexico, izona, North Carolina, Florida, rkansas, Louisiana, Alabama, corgia, Tennessee, Texas, South 'arolina and Mississippi. At the same time, the federal hare of welfare payments would in- rease. The amount a state pays to ward Aid to Families with Depen- lent Children would decrease by 10 ercent on Jan. 1, 1981, and by an dditional 20 percent on Oct. 1, 981. The bill also would increase the maximum yearly payment under the earned income tax credit for the working poor to $550, allow certain recipients of Supplemental Security Income to get cash in lieu of food stamps, and make numerous admi nistrative changes.
