tention to the November f
slaying of Samuel Shepherd
and the critical wounding of
Walter Lee Irvin, Negroes, by
j j an officer of the law near Um-
a tjHa, Florida. Handcuffed to-
j gether they were being removed
from the Raiford State Prisoi:
to Taveres, Florida-, for a new
trial that had been grantee
them by the United States Sup¬
reme Court.
The two victims, accused with
others in July, 1949, of rapinr
a 17-year-old white girl, had
been sentenced to death. The
third, a 16-year-oid boy, wa
given life imprisonment. The
fourth youth was shot to death
shortly after the alleged crime
by a posse.
Reversing the decision of the
State court, the United States
Supreme Court ordered a new-
trial on the basis that "this
trial took place under condi¬
tions and was accompanied by-
events which would deny de¬
fendants a fair trial before any
kind of jury.’.’
The officer of the law is re¬
ported to have said the "pris¬
oners ‘jumped him’ when he
stopped to repair a flat tire” on
a ionely road. The surviving
victim reported that both he
and the dead prisoner were
shot without provocation. The
sherfif concerned was absolved
from all blame by a Coroner’t
Jury ' This is a glaring instance

for the ride, Jones had carried
the bleeding baby to a doctors
office. Upon arriving home, he
found the mob awaiting him.
As he fled, he was shot in the
hand. Shortly thereafter, the
sheriff took Jones into custody
and the mother verified Jones’
story of what had actually
happened. j
On Seutember 2. at Colonial 1
Beach, Virginia, a town police¬
man, Charles White, and a
special officer were saved by
other officers of the law from
a mob approximating 590 per¬
sons who became incensed over
the alleged mistreatment of a
prisoner. The officer had been
calied to quell a disturbance at
a restaurant.
On November 22. near Wash¬

buying bonds you help build the great economic strength

Remember, too, when you buy bonds you make one of

Don’t forget that bonds are now a better buy than ever. Because
now every Series E Bond you own can automatically go on earn¬
ing interest every year for 20 years from date of purchase instead
of 10 as before! This means that the bond you bought for $18.75
can return you not just $25—but as much as $33.33! A $37.50
bond pays $66.66. And so on. And remember bankers recommend
United States Defense Bonds as one of
