children.
Came Here in 1892 s
A native of Mississippi, Mr. Ab
ney came to Athens in 1892, when
this city was little more than a
village and he had a large hand
in its development over a long
period of years. He entered bus
iness with his brother soon after
coming to Athens, the firm being
known as Abney Wholesale Gro
cery.
In 1909 he entered the insurance
field and for ntany years was one
of the leading agents in the Unit
ed States. As an imsurance sales
man he was unequalled until his
health became seriously impaired
and he was compelled to curtail
his activities in that field. At one
time he was head of one of the
largest general insurance agencies
in Georgia, here in Athens, and
was recognized as an authority on
all lines of insurance. He was one
of the first in Athens to make in
surance a career, instead of a side
ling, and the agency he organized
wrote all types of insurance. In
recognition of his outstanding
ability, he was made a life mem
ber of the Athens Association of
Life Underwriters.
~ Leading Exponent 5
Mr. Abney was perhaps the
leading exponent of good roads in
northeast Georgia for many years.
At a time when all of the paved
highways entering Athens were
Just “dirt roads,” he was an en
thusiastic advocate of good roads.
He made many trips, helped or
ganize many motorcades, to ex
ploit the good roads program. He
was never to busy to talk about
better roads, the need for paving
them to make it easier for people
to travel from one place to another.
And as a member of various civic
organizations in Athens he always
managed to bring before them and
keep before them the importance
of paved roads. While he was
best known as a salesman for
“ood roads his interest in civic
affairs was not restricted to that
subject and he was active in
other civie - betterment move
ments in this community. !
Mr. Abney served as president
f the Chamber of Commerce dur
ng World War One and did much

Athens District Set
BY GEORGE ABNEY, JR.
Dr. A. E. Terry, professor of German at the Univer
sity of Georgia, was re-elected chairman of the Athens
District, Boy Scouts of America, Friday night at the an
nual meeting of Scout leaders in this district and their
wives.
H. T. Gilbert, plant manager ofand was at one time President of
the Athens Manufacturing Com
pany, was re-elected vice-chair
man and Dr. Kenneth Redman was
elected district commissioner. Sam
Wiison served as district commis
sioner last year.
~ All committee chairmen of their
representatives made reports, and
the year’s activity of institutions
that had representatives present
was reported on. ‘
J. M. Molder, Northeast Geor
gia Council Executive, said, “The
Athens District had a pretty good
yvear in the twelve months past.”
He added that the Scout circus was
perhaps the biggest thing the dis
trict did.
' Edwards Speaks
Dr. A. S. Edwards, whoe has
served Scouting for about 35 years
plus the Arab states — Egypt, Sy~
ria, Lebanon, Saudi Aarabia, Irag
and Yemen; and the six Slav bloc
nations— Russia, Poland, Czech
oslovakia, Yugoslavia, White
Russia and the Soviet Ukraine.
Three Parts
By its vote, the assembly—
-I—Established a three-member
conciliation commisison which will
have its headquarters in Jerusa
lem.
2—Knocked out all references
in the conciliation scheme to the
U. N. partition plan which has ap
proved Nov. 29, 1947, and to the
report drafted by the late Pales
tine mediator, Count Folke Ber
nadotte, proposing modifications
of the partition nlan.
3—lnstructed the commission to
take over the job of actlnlc media
tor* Ralph Bunche and, if the Sc-
Associated Press Service
this council, addressed the group.
Dr. Edwards said that the Boy
Scouts have a “plan that is psycho
logically sound.”
Another point he brought out
was that the Boy Scout handbook
is the second best seller in the
world. He said, “The solution to
the problems we have in our
world today is character.” He add
ed, “This is what Scouting does—
developes character.”
A skit was given by four mem
bers of the Young Harris Memo
rial Methodist Church. They were
Slayton Spivey, Totter Hicks,
Tommy Fendley, and Jack Long.
(A summary of all reports made
‘at this meeting and the entire list
of 49 district committee members
‘will be published in the Banner
[Herald in a future edition.)
curity Council asks it to, the truce
machinery in the Holy Land.
Soviet Opposition
Soviet Deputy Foreign Minister
Andrei Y. Vishinsky led a power
ful opposition group as the big
western powers and Russia tangled
in heated debate before the vote.
The Arabs and Russians pollel
21 votes against the conciliation
plan in the U. N, political commit
tee last week. However, they could
muster no better than 15 ballots
tonight.
Some sidelights on tonight's
votes were:
Greece voted against the parti
tion plan but voted for the concil
jation commission.
India and Iran voted against
partition but agstained on concil
iation.
~ Turkey voted against partition
but voted for the conciliation plan.
Burma voted against conciliation
in the Political Committee but ab
stained on the final vote in the
Assembly.
~ Siam was absent when the par
tition vote was taken but voted
for the conciliation resolution.
Tired delegates, worn by 12
weeks of debate and continuous
East-West clashes, little at

as the debate dragged on into the

SERVING ATHENS AND NORTHEAST GEORGIA OVER A CENTURY
British |
Pondering
BY JOHN M. HIGHTOWER)
WASHINGTON, Dec. 11.
— (AP) —~Romania 18
throwing two American and
two British diplomats out of
the country, and the United
States is realiating by sim
ilar orders for two Roman
ian envoys assigned tm‘
Washington. |
' The Romanian Communist gov
ernment said the four it is tossing
cut conspired with “spies and sa
boteurs.” The U. S. called this ri
diculous. Britain delayed a decis
jon on whether to demand the
recall of Romanian diplomats.
This latest flareup in the cold
war involved an exchange of dip
lomatic insults in polite terms
which, however, scarcely served to
conceal the bitterness underlying
such incidents as this.
The four Anglo-American dip
lomats had been named in connec
» with trials in Romania of alleged
Eplotters, spies and saboteurs
against the Communist govern
'ment. In the latest of these trials,
ithe government alleged that one
'of the defendants had confessed
that the Americans and British
promised they would parachute
arms and troops into Romania for
anti-government forces in event
of conflict. :
ATHENS, GA., SUNDAY, DECEMBER 12, 1948.
' The State Department denied
all charges against the American
diplomats. ~American Minister
Rudolph E. Schoenfeld so inform
ed Romania’s woman Communist
foreign minister, Anna Pauker, in
a note delivered to her yesterday.
At the same time Schoenfeld
said that “in conformity with usual
international practice,”” the two
Americans would be withdrawn.
He labeled the charges aagint them
contrary to fact.
No Reason
State Department Press Officer
Michael McDermott announced
that the State Department notified‘
the Romanian legation yesterday |
that two of its top diplomats are
“persona non grata” (personally
unacceptable) to the American
government. The American gov
ernment gave no reason for its ac
tion and McDermott said that the
action was ‘“without any connec
tion and purely coincidental” with
the Romanian moves against the
two Americans in Bucharest.”
This line was regarded here as
diplomatic doubletalk merely to
protect the government against of
ficial charges from the Commun
ist countries of a wholly retalia~
tory action.
The six foreign service men who
thus got caught in a local skir
mish of the great East-West con
flict are:
Envoys Listed
Americans—Henry P. Lleverich,
a veteran foreign service officer
and counselor of legation at Buch
arest; Col. John R. Lovell, military
attache at the legation.
British—Charles Robinson, press
secretary at the British legation;
‘William Watson, assistant com
mercial attache.
Romanian—Grigore Pretoteasa,
minister counselor; Alexandru
Lazarenu, counselor of the lega
ltion in Washington.

A BARGAIN WITH THE
WIZARD
“Tree Wizard!” gasped Danny.
“Who is he?” .
Santa drew his chair close to
that of the little crippled boy.
“The Tree Wizard lives in the
Valley of Wasoon. He is a very
smart man. Once he cured a wo
man of a broken heart and once
he cured a man whose heart was
made of stone. He can cure you
if you do what he asks.”
“Oh — I willl” cried Danny
jumping from the table. “I’ll do
anything. Tl'll go now—this very
minute. And he began at once
to pull on his coat.
“Wait,” cried the Snow Man.
“Do you imagine that you are
going without me? You made me
and I shall follow you wherever
you go. Besides I might come in
handy. Who knows?”
Then Santa told them where to
find the Wasoon Valley and off
they started hand in hand.
Now the Valley of Wasoon
wasn’t so far away but Danny and
the Snow Man had hardly left

VIENNA, Ga., Dec. 11—
(AP)Discovery of the body
of a negro man a month ago
was announced for the first

Sheriff A. D. Peavey of

weighted down with a huge
stone, had been found in the
Flint River near Vienna with
a gag in the mouth, arms
bound and a bullet through
the heart.
Albany Dectective Gordon
Stokes said the man had been
identified through a Social
Security card as Charles
James Davis of Pecan City,
which is near Albany.
A coronor’s jury in Vienna
returned a vedict of “death
at the hands of party or par

the body was found.
2 Red Columns Pierce
Nanking River Defense
30,000 Invaders Drive For Vital
Rail Junction; Red Traps Leaking
BY SEYMOUR TOPPING
NANKING, Dec. 11.— (AP) —This Chinese capital’s
Hwai River defenses were reported pierced today by two
Communist columns — possibly 30,000 men —«bent on
cutting the vital supply route 71 miles by rail northwest
of Nanking.
Reliable informants who gave
this grave news said government
reinforcements already had arriv
ed at the threatened station of
Ming-Kuang. '
The Communist crossing was
reported to have beein made about
40 miles east of Pengpu and 90
miles west of Nanking. No other
details were available. But it ap
peared that the line—last Nanking
defense save the Yanktze river it
self—had been penetrated rather
than broken.
Nanking high command sources
said the immediate result of the
struggle for Nanking’s close ap
proaches hinged on ability of the
government Sixth Army group to
liberate remnants of the trapped
12th Army group about 145 miles
northwest of Nanking,
| Break In 3 Days
A top-level staff officer predict-~
ed the liberation in about three
days. Such a deveiopment might
make untenable the position of the
Reds below the Hwai.
However, Harold K. Milks, AP
correspondent with the sixth, re
ported /it still was 25 miles short
of a juncture. He depicted it as
fighting spiritedly but slowly, vil
lage by village across the bleak
plains country.
High command sources ac
knowledged that in more than two
weeks in the Communist trap the
12th Army group had suffered
about 40,000 casualties and was
down to about 60,000 fighting men.
- The war thus developed into a
evil elf, popped from behind a
hedge.
“3Ha!” he cried. “So you, too,
are leaving Santa Land. Perhaps
you’d like to join in my plans?”
Of course he did not say what
his plans were and Danny was
delighted with such friendliness.
“You must join with us instead!”
he said.
But the Snow Man, though he
knew nothing of Flournoy’s evil
doings in Santa Land, didn’t like
the elf’s face or the way he grin
ned at them. He said, “Thanks
you but we’d rather have nothing
to do with you.” And he pulled
Danny along leaving Flournoy
growling with fury.
“Why were you so rude?” Danny
asked. “I think it would be fun
to have an elf for a friend.”
“That elf gave me the shivers,”
said the Snow Man. “And, being
made of snow, I don't shiver ¢asi
ly. He has something mean on
his mind and I don’t want any
thing to do with him.”
Danny laughed. “Weli, neither

To Be Sunday
Many Athenians, Georgians and

December 11th, after a long ill
ness. ¢
She was the only child of the
late Dr. and Mrs. Charles IMorton
Strahan. From both parents she
inherited those qualities of heart
and mind which distinguished her
as a fine lady and a. profuond
scholar. Her father was for many
years head of the Department of

Miss Strahan’s mother was Miss

If You Can't Buy Pork,

CHICAGO, Dec. 11 — (AP) —
If Mrs. Housewife can’t get pork
chops at prices she likes, it won’t
do her much good to furn to beef
or lamb. These meats are less
plentiful than they have been .for
many years. Scarcity makes for
higher prices.
And behind the situation she

For the six weeks since Nov. 1,

12 Of Stolen Papers
Aired By Red Probers
WASHING'TON, Dec. il.— (AP)—Secret U. 8. govern=
ment papers obtained ten years ago by an admitted Com
munist agent contained international dynamite, it wag
disclosed todaly. .
Twelve of sorpne hundreds of
papers uncoverecl by the house
committee on uri-American acti
vities in its investigation of a
Communist spy network were
made public by the committee
with state department approval.
The papers were from confidential
state department files.
One of the clozen was among
the secret information which had
been recorded on microfilm.
This film wast found on the farm
of Whittaker Cliambers, a self-ad
mitted former Communist, last
week in a hollowed out pumpkin.
Chambers has accused Alger
Hiss, former st@te department offi
cial, and others of passing some
of the secret documents to him.
This has been denied by Hiss.
A New York Xederal Grand
Jury, which has been looking into
the extent of the Communist esp
ionage, is going ip have a look
at the microfilms.
Transfer of the films from the
safes of the Cornmittee on Un-
American Activities to those of the
Grand Jury was authorized to
day. '
- The 12 documents made public
by the committze would have
been “extremely ‘valuable” to any
foreign governments which got
them back in 1938, diplomatic aut
horities said today. e
It was then that Hitler wag fagh
ioning the military machine by
which he hoped to subjugate Eu
rope and. when. Japan’s hope of
an Asiatic empire was beginning
to burn bright.
The documents show that Hitler
might have known some of Brit
ain’s secret nnwglf)]ans 18 months
before he actually plunged the
continent into war by invading
Poland.
% Secret Message
" One secret mespage from a U. S,
Diplomat to his government, port
rayed Austria’s vain efforts to
avoid being engulfed by Hitler and
described him as'“a madman with
a mission.”
Another told of Japan'’s increas
ing belligerence; of the one-time
belief by a British official that
support of Chiang Kai~Shek would
be detrimental to British interests
in the Orient.
These were all things that if
brought into the limelight at the
time might have had marked re
percussions on the international
picture or a time when the United
States was far from ready for
war.
