nless Tito gets financial help in
a nurky.
The Russian-led trade boycott

U. S. export-import bank,
The State Department believes
it is essential to keep Tito in pow
.er as a symbol of resistance to
Moscow domination. Nevertheless,
top officials were considerably an
noyed by his unexpected blast at
the Western democracies last
week-end.
In a public speech, Tito chal
lenged the west to make good on
its ¢‘promises” of economic aid. He
added defiantly that Yugoslavia
would “rather go barefoot” than
sacrifice its Communist principles
in return for outside aid.
State Department officials com
mented that Tito was never pro
mised anything except “sym=-
pathetic consideration” for his loan
requests.
The Tito speech was seen as one
more evidence of the increasing
squeeze in which Yugoslavia finds
itself. That has spurred efforts to
send him help.

Crook Pays Fine

With Phoney Bill
ATLANTA, Feb. 23 — (AP) —
Some low down crook paid a city
court fine with a counterfeit $lO

U.S.-Russian Atom Conference
Reported Not Wanted Now
WASHINGTON, Feb. 23—(AP)
—Evidence piled up today that the
Truman administration is dead set
against seeking an atomic peace
conference with Russia at this
time. .
From President Truman himself
came a warning that the nation
“must not be misled by the vain
hope of finding quick and easy
solutions” for the world’s difficul
ties — of whicl the atomic arms
race is one of the greatest.
Instead, the President declared
in a speech honoring George
Washington yesterday that the
United States and other democra
cies must stick to the “hard path”
of building up the strength of the
free world in its struggle with
Communism,
The vice chairman of the Sen
‘ate-House Atomic Energy commit
tee, Rep. Durham (D-NC), mean
while directly attacked the idea of
an atomic conference with the So
viet Union. In a speech for the
North Carolina Democratic Club
here last night, he declared:

A member of the Georgia Breed
Improvement Board, Mr. Bell had
served as secretary of the poultry
section of the Southern Agricultur
al Workers and in 1942 was presi=-
dent of the Council of Official Egg
Laying Tests. He was also a mem-~
ber of the Poultry Science Associa
tion.
Mr. Bell was one of Athens most
popular citizens, his quiet, unas
summing manner making friends
easily and holding them fast
through the years.
A recognized leader as an edu
cator and'as a research scientist,
during his thirty years of resi=
dence in Athens, Mr. Bell made
for himself a very definite place
as an outstanding citizen and a
valuable asset to this communi
ty. He was a member of First
Methodist Church and took an ac
tive interest in its affairs, as well
as in all civic matters designed for
the development and betterment
of this community.
Mr. Bell will be greatly missed
by the many who knew and ad
mired him for his warm friend
ship ‘and the other sterling quali
ties he possessed. This community
is made the poorer by his death.

Temperatures were mild from
near Washington, D. C, southward

the country readings were near

Durham thus appeared to take a
position in conflict with Senator

Durham specified that he was
expressing a personal opinion.
nevertheless, what he said closely
paraellels the known opinion held
by top State Department officials
and possibly by Mr. Truman him
self.
The view is that there is no
prospect now that Russia and the
western powers could agree on a
system of armament controls and
international inspection of atomic
plants, including H-bomb facto

KKK Case
ROME, Ga., Feb. 23.—(AP)—
Sheriff John W. Lynch of Dade
county was pictured today as
consorting freely with Ku Klux
Klansmen lashing the bare backs
of seven negroes behind a church.
The government began to de=
velop this picture yesterday at
the trial of Lynch, three deputies
and six others on civil rights
charges in U, 8. District Court.
Its key witnesses were two of
the victims of the flailings at
Hooker, Ga., across the Tennessee
line from Chattanooga, the night
of last April 2.
Charles Milton Roberts and Le
roy Woods testified the sheriff
was present when the white
sheeted men seized them and five
other terrified negro youths at
the home of Mamie Clay, also a
negro.
Roberts said he appealed fran
tically to the sheriff for protec
tion.
“The sheriff,” he related,
“turned his back and walked off.”
But, the negro continued, the
sheriff was riding in the front
car when a Klan procession drove

that a conference would result in
failure and that this might in
crease the dangers of war in the
world by building up a sense of
despair and hopelessness among
people everywhere,
The idea that the chances for
agreement at this time are almost
non-existent was challenged yes
‘terday by a former official of the
American embassy in Moscow
Brig. Gen. Russell E. Randall,
retired air force officer who was an
attache in Moscow from Septem
ber 1948 to July 1949, said he be
lieves the chances for an under
standing with the Russians now
are getting better than they have
ever been since the cold war start
ed.
Randall declared in an interview
that the H-bomb is a force which
the Russians *“can recognize and
fear” because of its devastating
possibilities. He urged that the
United States take the initiative in
calling a peace conferencc to be
held in Moscow with Britain and
Russia and possibly other nations:
the seven negroes from the Clay
home to the rear of a white
Methodist church nearby. One of
the sheriff’s deputies, Stokes Mc-
Cauley, also a defemdant, was
driving, Roberts said.
He added that McCauley and
another deputy-defendant, John
Bleckley, had yanked him from
his automobile as he drove up to
the Clay home to visit Mamie’s
son, William.
Roberts and Woods testified
the seven were taken behind the
church one by one, told to take
off their pants, and then were
savagely flogged as they scream
ed in pain and fright.
The sheriff and his aides, the
two said, saw the proceedings
without making any effort to in
tervene.
The officers and the other de
fendants are charged with con
spiring to arrest the negroes
falsely and turn them over to the
hooded lash-wielders. The gov-~
ernment charges the negroes were
thus robbed of their constitu
tional guarantee of equal protec=-
tion of the law.
The trial is the second on sim
ilar charges. The first ended last
December in a deadlocked jury.
