The Clarke county school sys tem, embracing six white schogs and eleven megro schools, is : evatid ay the: Eovmy Beardl Rl Education and maintained with funds furnished by the county and the state governments. Last year the total amount of money available for the county schools was approximately $165,- 000, three-fourths of which came from the state. The county funds for schools were derived from a fifteen-mill tax, paid only by property owners outside of the city limits. This tax is levied against a digest which last year amounted to $2,600,000. The bond margin for county school purposes based on the same digest amounts to about $182,000. The county school plant consists of schools at Winterville, Gaines Academy, Hinton-Brown, Joseph M. Hodgson Academy at Whitehall, Princeton, University Demonstra tion School, on the Co-Ordinate campus, (owned by the Board of Regents and operated as a teach ers laboratory) where childrer in elementary and high school grades. from the western section of the county attend under cohtract be tween the Board of Education and the Regents. The enrollment at this school, including pupils from Bradberry’s, Sandy Creek, Ken ney’s and Georgia Factory districts, is about four hundred and fifty. . Brick Veneer The Princeton school, enrollment about one hundred, is a brick ve= neer structure, built in 1936 at a cost of about $12,500. At present construction prices it would cost about $35,000 or $40,000.t0 re place it. It is insured, for $8,750 on a rate of $1.90 per hundred. (The rate is based on fire protec tion facilities available as well as the type of structure). The Winterville plant, exclusive of the auditorium recently destroy ed, cost about $60,000 and would cost more than $125,000 to replace at present prices. The enrollment is three hundred and seventy-five. It consists of the vocational build ing, grammar school, high school and gymnasium. The latter is of asbestos siding and metal roof. The ~other buildings are of brick veneer or stucco. They are insured for a total of $39,500. The auditorium, which cost about $35,000, less equipment, was insured for $12,500 at a rate of $1.49 per hundred. Gaines Academy, built in 1927, consolidated the Tuckston, Bel mont and Centerville schools. It has an enrollment of about one hundred and forty students. The building, of brick veneer, would cost about $40,000 to replace. It is insured for SIO,OOO at a rate of $2.03 per one hundred.

The Conserva tives, under Winston Churchill, will move an amendment to the throne speech attacking the gov ernment’s housing program. This issue cuts directly to the people. Conservatives feel their criticism of Labor’s housing program won votes for them in the last election. They are again pushing the issue to the fore with the expectation that the Labor government may not be longlived and another elec tion may be held before the au tumn. ) In a special election yesterday in the Moss Side constituency of Manchester a Jonservative candi date won.

Sheriff And Deputy Found Guilty In Flogging Trial - @ Eight Other White Men & Freed; Appeal Readied ROME, Ga., March 10, — (AP) — A Georgia jury last night convicted a sheriff and his deputy of depriving seven negroes of their civil rights by turning them over to a Ku Klux Klan mob for flogging. Eight other white defendants were freed. Dade County Sheriff John W, Lynch and Deputy Wil liam Hartline were acquitted on two charges of a three point indictment—general conspiracy and intimidation of Mamie Clay. It was at the Clay home at Hooker, Ga., that the seven ne groes were seized by Ku Kluxers last April 2. | The maximum sentence that can be given Lynch and Hartline on the Civil Rights conviction is cne year in prison and a SI,OOO fine. Federal Judge Frank Hooper withheld sentence pending a mo ﬁ? for a new trial. The jury deliberated nearly 12 hoursgefore handing down its de cisiort in U. S. District court short ly befo< midnight last night. Judge Hooper declared a mis trial last December when a previ ous. fury was unable to agree on the fate of the 10 men. The negroes — four of them former servicemen—were forced into cars at the Clay home and carried a short distance to a church yvard where they were lashed se verely. The defense admitted that Lynch and three of his deputies were in Hooker the night the negroes were flogged, but denied they had any thing to do with the beating. Gun Touch The stocky, 38-year-old sheritf told the jury he and his deputies had arrested two negroes at the Clay house for drunkenness. He swore he had turned them over to the Klan only when something which “felt like a gun” was thrust at his back. Acquitted were Robert Keener, Terrell Wheeler, Truman Purcell, Woodrow Daniel, Sam Peters, Far~ ris Durham u}d oﬁgcpuﬂes. Stokes McCayley and John Bleckley, S. Distriet Attorney J. Ellig' Mun~ dy contended the floggings were preconceived. - The government maintained a conspiracy to have the negroes whipped was planned in the Dade Klub, a provisional Klavern of the Association of Georgia Klans, It held the affair was carried out with the consent and even the help of Sheriff Lynch and his deputies. Government witnesses testified they saw the sheriff’s car leading the Klan vehicles to the Clay home. The flogged negroes said they appealed to the sheriff for help but that he turned his back and walked away. Mrs. Clay identified Hartline as a member of the group of hooded men which burned a cross before her son and the six other negroes were taken from Her home. A Sand Mountain, Ala., farmer, Mike Wooten, pictured meetings of the Dade Klub a week or so be fore the beatings. H said some-= thing was said about visiting ne groes who had been creating a disturbance. He said Hartline attended the Dade Klub meetings and that Lynch attended at least one of them. Wooten identifed Purcell as exalted cyclops of the Dade Klub, . Question of Rent Curb Unanswered WASHINGTON, March 10.— (AP)—The question og extending rent controls another year was still up in the air today. The Senate yesterday voted Housing Expediter Tighe Woods $1,400,000 to administer rent ceil= ings until June 30, when the pres ent rent law expires. At the same time, they voted him $2,600,000 and told him to use it in rvepaartion for closing up shop or 1 :at date; Between now and then, they said, Congress can reach a decis ion on whether to continue con trols. The two provisions were includ ed in a $758,729,000 money bill to keep various government agencies in funds for the rest of the 1950 fiscal year ending June 30. That amount was $26,244,000 more than approved by the House — despite the efforts of Senate economy ad vocates to trim the total.

New Scienfists Are Sought For H-Bomb Program WASHINGTON, March 10 = (AP)—Lining up the needed scien=- tists, particularly foreigners, ap parently is one of the big worries in the new hydrogen bomb pro gram, The problem may involve such issues as: 1. Setting up safeguards against another Fuchs spy case. 2, Deciding whether the H~bomb effort shall be partial or full scale. . 3. Draining scientists from uni versities and industry so an ex tent that might cripple the training of the physicists of the future. tait Making another deal with Bri~ n. h 5. Amending the atomic energy W, 6. Opposition of some scientists to going ahead with the super H bomb now. i Word is getting around that there is deep concern in the Sen ate-House Atomic Committee and the Atomic Energy Commission because of conditions shaping up something like this: Tn developing the atomic bomb, e Unifed" States had to ﬁﬂ, ‘heavily on men who came overséas, men like Budapest-born Dr. Edward Teller and Rome born Dr. Enrico Fermi, both of the University of Chicago. While the theory of the hydro gen bomb has been known for years, getting this proposed super weapon into production again would be likely to require many such scientists in key places. One authority is reported to have drawn up a list of the neces sary talent which includes only two native Americans, Dr. Charles L. Critehfield of the University of Minnesota and Dr. J. A. Wheeler of Princeton, Many of the foreign born on the list are on the faculties of Ameri can universities or employed by American industries. Like Teller and Fermi, some now are natural ized citizens. But at least four Britishers are named. Getting British scientists opens up several questions. Some authorities say it would require an agreement with Bri tain, and loosening atomic energy law controls over atomic informa tion and materials. Some doubt that any scientists who are not American -citizens could be employed in the H-bomb project unless the law is changed. And they believe the Fuchs case has increased the difficulties of getting Congress to make changes.

NO SLEEPING PEACE New "Terrible” Marital Threat Now Facing Men BY ARTHUR EDSON . WASHINGTON, March 10.-— (AP) —The men of this country, manv of whom already are harrassed and hen pecked by their wives, now face a new and terrible marital threat. Soon we may not be able even to sleep in peace. This horrendous fact came out yesterday at a sleep learning demonstration. You've probably heard about sleep-learning by now. Some psychologists think you can learn while you're asleep. With a tiny speaker on your pillow, the phono graph on tape recording machine can grind out lessons while you're snoozing. - It works, too, the experts say. We'll get around to the sleep learning demonstration in a moment. After a word with Rich ard C.

So every night while he was asleep, she kept telling him how good salads were. «“Well, about three wecks later, her husband said he thought he’'d try a salad.

Effort To Halt Red Power Sans Shooting WASHINGTON, March 10 — (AP)—A new cold war battleery —“total diplomacy” — was raised for Americans today by Secretary of State Acheson. Its meaning: An all-out effort, short of shoot= ing, to curb Russian expansion. Acheson sketched his new out line of national support for United States foreign policy three weeks ago, in an informal White House talk before the Advertising Coun= cil, a private organization of lead~ ers in the field of advertising. Officials said the talk was kept secret, in the expectationm that Acheson might use the same ideag in a public address in late Febru= ary or early March. m did not materialize it was to make a reconstructed version of his speech public. The text given out last nﬁ ‘'was not an actual transeript }a version prepared from memery by Francis Russell, State Depart~ ‘ment director of public affaizs. ¥ 'was approved by Acheson. Two Lines In it, he declared that the United States must follow two closely re= lated lines of foreign poliey. The first, he said, is “to meet wherever possible all thrusts es the Soviet Union”’—as hag been done in Greece and Turkey. The second policy line, he said, “must be to create those political, social and psyc! conditions that strengthen create confidence in the Demoera~ tic way of life” - Acheson said that total diploma~ - ¢y, besides meaning the dﬁ }pouible coordination within American government, likewise implies a great degree of unity be tween the United States and the other nations allied with it im the cold war. ” “When we have reached wunity and determination on the part of the free nations—when we have eliminated all of the areas of weakness—we will be able te¢ evolve working agreements with the Russians,” Acheson declared. He argued that “only the Rus sians would benefit” if the United States took the initiative in ealling conversations- aimed at ao}vi;‘g some of the important East-W issues. . Dr A. B.

He asked how I was and then asked for Elise. Big Crowd “Then he said ‘there’s going o be quite a crowd out at the house and my advice to you both is you had beiter go home.” . From the outset, Borroto had expressed hope that the young physician would be acquitted. A Harvard Pathologist, who tes tified Mrs. Borroto did not die of air injections, said he was “de lighted” with the verdict. Dr. Richard F. Ford, 35-year-nld head of the Harvard Mediusl School Department of Legal Medi~ cix;s and the defense’s key witness, said: “I am delighted an American jury will not conviet &8 man en wor 1 of meouth, unsupported g thorough investigation, when a charge of murder.”
