Two Farmers Freed
In Mallard Slaying
LYONS, Ga., Jan. 12.— (AP) —A white farmer wag,
acquitted of murder _\'egwgfiy alter two members of the |
all-white jury iystifl’ed the} did.not believe the sworn tes- |
timflbn_v of the slain‘négro’s widow. '
William L. (Spud) Howell was
found innocent of charges of mur
dering Robert Mallard, prosperous
negro casl&et sak’a;man. The slay
ing was cfiused_,as ? l?c by
Tuskegee Instituge. ; . .
Two mer‘x’er:%( the trial "’fix’ry
took the stand as character wit
nesses for Howell. Along with
nine other defense witnesses, they
saig Howell’s character was good
and said:they. would not;believe
Amny Mailard, the -wido‘.x’,'under
oath. |
Calling members of the jury to
the stand as character witnesses is
rare, but is sanctioned under
Georgia's criminal code. Defense
Attorney T. Ross Sharpe sald such
a maneuver by an opposing law=’
yer, lost him a case 25 years ago.
“Today I pulled it, and won ‘the
case,” he added. |
The jury was out only 25 min
uies. Then the State Prosecutor
asked that murder charges against
Roderick Clifton, a co-defendant,
be nolle prossed. This was done
over the objection of Sharpe, who
said* he wanted an outright ac
quittal for Clifton. |

ATLANTA, Jan. 12.— (AP) —New permanent rates
for the Southern Bell Telephone Company were ordered
into effect by the Georgia Public Service Commisgion at
12:01 a. m. todayv.
The, rates were $1,572,600 less
than those now effective under a
Superior Court order, but approxi
mately $3,600,000 greater than the
Commission’s” original $1,600,000
rate increase.
In a split decision, the Commis
sion’s order said the rates now in
effect under the court order “are
excessive and unreasonable and
that a lower schedule of ratés will |
provide the company with suffi
cient revenue.”
Dissenting, Chairman Walter
MecDonald yesterday declared the
new: rates were ‘“‘over-generous.”

MllSt Die
|II (ha’r
ATLANTA, Jan. 12—(AP) —
Wealthy John Wallace, Meriweth
er county dairyman, must die for
the slaying of Williasn H. Turner
in Coweta county.
The Georgia Supreme Court
yesterday unanimously upheld
the «death sentence given Wallace
for the murder of Turner, one
time tenant farmer on the Wallace
plantation.
Wallace said he accidentally
shot Turner in an effort to “bluff
him into telling where my stolen
cows were.”
Convicted of murder and sen
tenced to death June 18, Wallace
petitioned for a new trial, which
was denied. Three other defend
ants, Herring Sivell, Tom Strick
land, and Henry Mobley, agreed
to accept life sentences, which
they are now serving.
Turner was released from jail
April 20 for lack of evidence on a
cow stealing charge brought by
Wallace. His partially destroyed
body was found two weeks later
in a lonely spot on the Wallace
plantation.
It was described as “a lynching”
in the 1948 report on lynchings
by Tuskegge Institute.

CHARLOTTE, N. C, Jan. 11—
(AP)—Former Governor Ellis
Arnall, of Georgia, said today
points in President Truman’s civil
rights program should be settled
by the individual states.
This, he observed in an inter
view here, makes him look like a
State’'s Rights Democrat.
But he added:
“I'm for staies” responsibilities.
The States’ Right group stands for
doing nothing.”
He declared he believed it is the
responsibility of each state to
pass its own anti-poll tax and
anti-lynching laws.
But as for a Fair Employment
Practices Commission, he added,
“it isn’t workable, in any way.”

Surrender Of Tientsi
PEIPING, Jan. 12.— (AP)—Trustworthy reports fr
Tientsin today said Communist besiegers had refuse
discuss a compromise and demanded complete Surren,
nf the North China industrial city.
' (Earlier reports from Nanking
sald official quarters in the capi
}ll» had written off Tientsin as
ost.
9f'he Tientsin sources said four
members of the City Council ask
'ed the Reds for a cease fire order.
The Communists sent them back
| with a demand for complete sur
render of Nationalist forces in the
Tientsin area, these sources said.
| The Red ultimatum reportedly
indicated they were not disposed
to bargain, and wanted a clear cut
“yes” or “no” from the National
ist forces within 24 hours.
| Dther reports here said the Reds
‘shelled the city Tuesday night,
after the surrender ultimatum was
!ziven, and “quite a few casualties”
resulted. No estimate was given
‘on the number.
The shelling suggested .to ob
lservers here, 90 miles northwest of
Tientsin, that the Communists
found the Nationalists’ reaction to
their demand unsatisfactory.
It was presumed that the Tient
sin Council delegates on a reportéd
second trip into Communist terri
tory tried to bargain instead of
agreeing to outright surrender of
the city, swollen by war refugees
to 3,000,000 persons.
No Conditions
All indicatiéns, according to the
best information here, are that the
Communists will not modify their
conditions—complete surrender of
the city and its defenders.
\ The Peiping newspaper Ping
Min Pao, owned by North China
NMNationalist Commander, Gen. Fu
’Tso-Yi. said the Reds during the
first visit of the delegates agreed
to suspend their attacks for 24
hours starting at 6 p. m. (Chinese
Time) Tuesday, It said that de
spite this agreement the Reds as
lsailed the Nationalist position in
‘the western suburbs of Tientsin
larfd the fighting lasted all last
night.
« The newspaper quoted the Na
tionalist commander at Tientsin,
Gen. Chen Chang-Chieh, as saying
the Red attackers were wiped out.
| The Peiping Daily News said
that Chen conferred with the four
councilmen before they made a
second visit to the Communists.
The newspaper said that after the
meeting Chen told newsmen there
was a 50-50 chance for a peaceful
settlement at Tientsin.
! (Shanghai reported that pres
.sure for peace was. mounting in
China but that the pressure was
on President Chiang Kai-Shek and
Inot his Red enemies.)

BALKS DUE TO
GAS AND BLOAT
Help Get Food Digested to
Relieve Yourself of This
Nervous Distress |
Do you feel all puffed-up and miserable
after every meal, taste sour, bitter food?
If so, here is how you may get blessed
relief in helping your stomach do the
job—it should be doing—in the diges
tion of its food.
Everytime food enters the stomach a
vital gastric juice must flow normally to
break-up certain food particles; else the
food may ferment. Sour food, acid indi
gestion and gas frequently cause a mor
bid, touchy, fretful, peevish, nervous
condition, loss of appetite, underweight,
restless sleep, weakness.
To get real relief you must increase
the flow of this vital gastric julce. Medi
cal authorities, in independent labora
tory tests on human stomachs, have by
positive proof shown that SSS Tonic is
amazingly effective in increasing this
flow when it is too little or scanty due
to a non-organic stomach disturbance.
This is due to the SSS Tonic formula
which contains special and potent acti
vating ingredients. @
Also, SSS Tonic helps build-up non
organic, weak, watery blood in nutri
tional anemia—so with a good flow of
this gastric digestive juiee, plus rich red
blood you should eat better, sleep better,
feel better, work better, play better. &
Avoid punishing yourself with over
doses of soda and other alkalizers to
counteract gas and bloating when what
you so dearly need is SSB Tonic to help
you digest food for body strength aud
repair. Don't wait! Join the host of
happy people BSS Tonic has helped.
