what he hopes will be a more
peaceful life.
Ham created a sensation last
year when he shot down and
killed a doctor who was al
le^'dly carrying on an “im
proper affair” with his wife.
An all-male Moruoe County
jury found him innocent of mur
he was committed to Milledge
ville State Mental Hospital.
He was released Wednesday.
Attorneys for Ham admitted
in court that he gunned down
Dr. Hugh Lumpkin Coffee, a
prominent Foray .h physician, in
the parking lot of Monroe Coun
ty Hospit l. But they contend
ed he was driven to a “state
of mental collapse” by the al
leged affair between Coffee and
Ham’s wife Augustine (Tina)
Ham.
Ham and his wife have since
filed suit for divorce against
each other.
Ham was sent to Milledge
vllle after the innocent verdict
was read Nov. 34, 1965.
His release means he has
been declared mentally com
petent and the case is now
closed attorney H. T. O’Neal
told United Press International
Wednesday. No new charges
may be brought against him
because of the incident.
O’Neal said Ham wants only
to return to a normal, peace
ful life in Monroe County. He
will likely aid in a family
owned mercantile business in
Forsyth, O’Neal said.
Humphrey Arrives
Under Heavy Guard
By DONALD H. MAT
United Press International
SAIGON (UPI) —Vico Pres
ident Hubert H. Humphrey
arrived in Saigon today with a
pledge to wage "a vigorous
war” against social and econ
omic ills in Viet Nam. He was
shielded by thousands of troops
and police protecting him from
Communist terrorists.
The vice president’s White
House Jetliner touched down at
suburban Tan Son Nhut Airport
at 4 a.m., EST after a flight
across the Pacific from Honolu
lu. Arriving with Humphrey
were South Vietnamese Pre
mier Nguyen Cao Ky, chief of
state Hguyen Van Thieu, U.S.
Secretary of Agriculture Orville
Freeman and others who
attended the Honolulu confer
ence with President Johnson
earlier this week.
Humphrey received the most
elaborate welcome to Saigon in
the memory of longtime
Western residents, including a
21-gun salute from four 155mm
howitzers.
“My mission is not military,”
he told reporters during a 3,800
mile flight from Honolulu. “I’m
here as a representative of the
‘Great Society. ,,»
A multi-service Vietnamese
military guard stood in two
ranks stretching more than 100
yards from the vice president’s
plane to the airport’s VIP
lounge. The ramp also was
decorated with four highly
polished tanks.
About 1,000 Vietnamese
schoolgirls clad in traditional
white tunics and translucent
pantaloons stood nearby waving
tiny U.S. and Vietnamese flags.
Streets throughout Saigon itself
were decked with banners
proclaiming Vietnamese deter
mination to resist communism.
Much history and many
changing circumstances
brought Humphrey to Saigon
with Ky and Thieur.
Those circumstances included
the deepening U. S. involve
ment in South Viet Nam in the
past year, the changing milita
ry situation, political upheavals
in Saigon, the peace offensive
that failed, and President
Johnson’s interest in fighting
disease, ignorance and poverty
at home and abroad.
Humphrey’s immediate goal
is to hold talks in Vi-t Nam
between now and Sunday on
ways to implement the social
and economio programs an
nounced during the Vietnamese
leaders’ meeting with President
Johnson in Honolulu early this
week.
He will then go on to a
number of other Aslan coun
tries to discuss Viet Nam and
other issues. His schedule has

Tate Battles
For Equal Pay
In Education
ATLANTA (UPI) — One of
the nation’s top Negro educa
tors said Wednesday he will
ask the federal government to
cut off funds to Georgia school
systems still practicing salary
discrimination against Negroes.
Dr. H. E. Tate, executive
secretary of the Georgia Teach
ers and Education Association,
told the Atlanta Hungry Club
that although a court ruled in
the late 1940s that Negro teach
ers must be paid on an equal
basis with whites, books are
Juggled in many counties to pay
white teachers more.
‘‘We still have many local
school systems as late as 1966
that still pay local salary sup
plements to all white teachers
within the school system while
paying no supplements to Ne
gro teachers," Tate said.
As a result of the failure of
the state to act to correct these
inequities, he said, he will visit
Washington within the next two
weeks to make a formal re
quest that federal funds be
withheld until salary discrimi
nation on the basis of race is
eliminated.
Tate estimates that over the
past 50 years, Negro educators
have lost over $20 million be
cause of such practices.
‘‘In January,” he continued,
‘‘we determined that in not one
school system in Georgia' out
side the five large systems was
there a Negro principal that
was paid the same salary as a
white principal in the same sys
tem, despite the fact that the
Negro principal often had more
training, more experience and
more teachers under his super
vision.”
Tate cited the example of a
Negro principal supervising 78
teachers and holding a masters
degree, with 34 years experi
ence, who was paid $87 less per
month than the white principal.
The white principal supervised
17 teachers, also had a masters
degree, and had 14 years ex
perience.
Tate said he had contacted
the ‘‘chief state school execu
tive” but had received no help.
[ . A private plane carrying Ala
bama gubernatorial candidate
Ryan deGraffenried and his pi
lot crashed on rugged Lookout
Mountain Wednesday night.
A rescue squad which climb
ed the ridge said “there were
just pieces of bodies.”
J. C. Cargle, a member of
the Ralnsville, Ala., rescue
squad, said there was no sign
of fire.
The wreckage of the plane
was spotted shortly before dawn
today after more than 200 per
sons had staged an all-night
search in the dense, rugged
country.
Mrs. deGraffenried arrived
here shortly after the plane was
reported missing and spent the
dismal, chilly night of waiting
in a highway patrol car.
On Campaign Tour
Alabama state patrol Lt. R.
P. Hooks said the plane which
deGraffenried had used in a
campaign tour to succeed
George B. Wallace as governor,
had crashed along the southern
portion of Lookout Mountain a
bout a mile south of this north
west Alabama city.
When the wreckage was seen,
hopes dimmed that deGraffen
ried and pilot Robert Hoskins,
40, of Birmingham, would be
found alive.
The plane apparently went
down shortly after taking off at
8:30 p.m., Wednesday in weath
er so turbulent that the fliers
had been warned by airport of
ficials.
The area where the plane
went down is covered with
dense pine and hardwood.
The plane was a Cessna 310,
owned privately by deGraffen
ried, a Tuscaloosa attorney and
former state senator who was
runner-up to Wallace four years
ago.
“We are of course hoping for
the best but right now it looks
mighty bad.” said state Sen.
Bob Gilchrist of Hartselle dur
ing the search, Gilchrist was
one of deGraffenried’s cam
paign managers.
Port Ptj’-'a airport manager
Joe Dahl said he had warned
ti ' pilot and candidate not to
try to make a scheduled
30-minute flight to Gadsden be
cause of turbulence.
